The President is being SUED!!!! AND I LOVE IT!
Being sued by 3 protesters who claim they were demonstrating outside the White House at Lafayette Park on June 1 -- the day POTUS took his now-infamous church photo-op.
In the docs, the protesters claim the crowd-clearing tactics violated their constitutional rights, including freedom of assembly under the First Amendment and their right to be free from excessive force under the Fourth Amendment.
The protesters also claim the Trump Administration later lied about the amount and kinds of force used to disperse the crowd.
According to the suit, the protesters want an injunction allowing them to exercise their right to protest without fear of retribution and to restore access to Lafayette Park, which has since been closed off by fences.
The protesters also want a finding that the use of tear gas, flash-bang grenades, smoke bombs and rubber bullets was unconstitutional.
