Black Lives Matter, ACLU Sue Trump Over Tear Gassing Protesters

(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump and Attorney General William Barr were sued by the American Civil Liberties Union for allegedly violating the constitutional rights of protesters outside the White House who were hit with tear gas in Lafayette Park so Trump could do a photo op in front of a church, the groups said in a statement.

The complaint couldn’t immediately be verified in court records.
