17. What she also said in the interview was that they weren't doing those things...

That's "using chemical weapons" and she laughed when Margaret mentioned the court order and added that they wouldn't be changing anything that they were doing. She also seemed to suggest that they were using chemical weapons. She said that they were being used for "crowd control" (aka victim blaming, imo.) Then she said again they wouldn't be changing anything that they are doing.

But it is a remarkably scrambled series of responses. The biggest concentration of deflecting and denying in one brief timespan that I think that I've ever seen and I've analyzed lots of conversations.

I also may have misunderstood things just because the gaslighting was so thick it was like peanut butter. I suggest watching it, if you're able. I really want to see a verified transcript.

It's extremely disturbing that she's in charge. She really needs to be removed. If it's possible to do such, it would at least be a start. It might even begin the snowball downhill that could create the avalanche that we need.
