Trump is under fire today for tweeting that 75-year-old Martin Gugino, hospitalized by a shove from Buffalo police that cracked his head on the sidewalk and left him bleeding from the ear, "could be an ANTIFA protester."

As NBC's Ken Dilanian pointed out on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/KenDilanianNBC/status/1270368019362054144?ref=unprecedented.ghost.io): "The 'correspondent' on the story Trump cites here also works for Sputnik, a Kremlin propaganda network. The story is based on an anonymous post to a conspiracy web site."

As I noted previously, [in a tweet picked up by Raw Story](https://www.rawstory.com/2020/06/nazi-nuremberg-defense-buffalo-police-ripped-for-defending-cops-who-pushed-elderly-man/?ref=unprecedented.ghost.io), the cops involved in the incident offered the Nazis' Nuremberg Defense for their actions: "They were just following orders."

Meanwhile, as Trump is busy defending cops by promoting dubious conspiracy theories he sees while watching OANN in the middle of a pandemic, an economic crisis and a national uprising against systemic racism, Rep. Ayanna Pressley notes:

To quote [Don Lemon](https://twitter.com/richardhine/status/1254632923938131969?ref=unprecedented.ghost.io) from April 27: “How much longer is this going to go on?”
