Sen. Bernie Sanders publicly praised anti-police protesters in early June; “congratulating” them on taking the “streets” while now calling-out Trump supporters planning to attend a ‘MAGA’ rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
“Congratulations to all who are out on the streets today peacefully protesting. Together, we will end police brutality. Together, we will defeat Trump. Together, we will fight for a government based on justice and compassion, not greed and lies,” posted Sanders on June 6.

Trump's rally in Tulsa is indoors, with no social distancing and no mask requirements—all in violation of CDC guidelines. Trump is willing to spread the COVID-19 virus in order to hear some cheers. He is a direct threat to the health of the American people. He must be defeated.

READY TO MAGA: People Line Up 3 DAYS IN ADVANCE for Trump’s Tulsa Rally
From Fox News:
More than two days before the president is set to take the stage in Oklahoma for his first rally since the coronavirus lockdowns, ardent Trump supporters are already lining up to camp outside the venue.
President Trump on Saturday night is scheduled to rally with supporters at BOK Center, a venue in Tulsa which can hold around 20,000 people.
I’d estimate about 2 dozen Trump supporters are already lined up outside the BOK center ahead of Saturday’s rally. Security barricades can also be spotted on nearby streets ahead of the president’s visit – his first rally since early March. pic.twitter.com/wBeG6NlB1m
