Trump Threatens Prison For Attempts To Topple Statues. Here’s The Law He Cites

A row of police officers stand guard with the statue of former President Andrew Jackson after protesters tried to topple it in Washington, DC on June 22, 2020.

While the president says he “authorized” the federal government to prosecute those who deface and destroy statues on federal land, the government already had that power thanks to a 2003 law.
