J.A. Myerson, Truthout & Amanda Beadle, Think Progress.org join Thom Hartmann. More video of police brutality - and supression of free speech against the 99% Movement over the weekend. In response - the movement gets bigger. So you have to wonder - are police trying to help Occupy Wall Street? The assault on the 99% movement continued over the weekend - from police brutality - to sabotage - to new restrictions on free speech. This was the scene on Friday - when a group of students peacefully occupied the University of California, Davis - and had thiir mouths, noses, and eyes filled with pepper spray as a result. And then there's what's going on with the DC lobbying firm "Clark, Lytle, Geduldig, and Cranford" MSNBC obtained a secret memo by the lobbying firm to the American Bankers Association - outlining a plan to use "opposition research" to "undermine the credibility" of the movement. The firm offered up it's services to undermine the 99% Movement for the price of $850,000. So how does Occupy Wall Street endure these numerous attacks and continue growing?
