GRAND RAPIDS, Mich — They were stark words of caution from Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel’s office Friday afternoon, one day before millions were expected to attend public protests around the country.
“When protests turn chaotic, our voices are drowned out, the safety of protestors and public safety officers may jeopardized, and it hands the White House the excuse they so badly want to abuse and test the limits of their constitutional authority,” Nessel said.
Nessel’s words of caution came ahead of what are expected to be millions in cities and towns across the country as part of a second round of what have been dubbed ‘No Kings’ protests. The protests are geared toward what demonstrators have felt to be abuses of power at the hands of the federal government and executive agencies
