https://www.msn.com/en-us/music/news/neil-young-may-sue-rogue-president-donald-trump-after-all/ar-BB17fjksNeil Young is not happy about whats been going on in the United States due to Donald Trumps actions. Hes so displeased, he revealed in a post on his Neil Young Archives Sunday (July 26) that he may take legal action after all against the former reality TV personality for using his music at rallies.
I am changing my mind about suing President Trump. Reconsidering, wrote the celebrated two-time Grammy winner, who had said earlier in July that he didnt want a lawsuit to distract the president from properly responding to the coronavirus pandemic. Im looking at it again. There is a long history to consider and I originally considered it, deciding not to pursue. But then President Trump ordered thugs in uniform onto our streets. His idea. This is all DJT.
In recent weeks, Trump has deployed federal law enforcement to Portland, Ore., and has threatened to send them to other cities including Philadelphia and Milwaukee to quell unrest. As agents have taken Oregon protesters and put them in unmarked vehicles without saying why, local officials have denounced Trumps orders, with Gov. Kate Brown of Oregon calling it a blatant abuse of power. The ACLU has also sued the Dept. of Homeland Security and U.S. Marshals Service over their actions in Portland.
The US military is against these thug troops being here on the streets of America, attacking what our US military does, Young continued, noting that veterans have joined Portland protesters to protect them. They know they are not to be on the streets doing a rogue presidents bidding for his own political gain, harming innocent citizens who are legally protesting.
