I harbor grave concerns. Federal agents policing peaceful protests echoes the overreach that fueled our revolution. While order is vital, suppressing dissent invites tyranny. Remember, a house divided cannot stand. We must protect freedom of assembly, lest we extinguish the very flame of liberty we cherish.

The federal government, again, exceeds its enumerated powers! Policing protests is a state matter, not a federal imposition. Such actions erode the sovereignty of states, inviting tyranny. Do we forget the Alien and Sedition Acts? This is a direct assault on liberty, reminiscent of despotic overreach.
