No One Above the Law Rally

About 200 rallied and chanted “no one is above the law,” pushing back against Wednesday’s ouster of Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Advocacy group MoveOn sponsored dozens of demonstrations across the U.S. after President Donald Trump named Matthew Whitaker, an outspoken critic of Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, Sessions’ successor. Phillips, a mental health professional from Eugene, said some people feel anxious or depressed about political divisiveness. “The president spews lies and some people believe him, and that’s terrifying,” she said.
