Prosecutors have dropped vandalism charges against David Hearn, who was accused in a case involving the Capitol reflecting pool, according to CBS News. The dismissal is being celebrated by Trump critics online, who frame it as another loud legal defeat, with some calling the charges politically motivated and tagging the Republican Party in their reactions.

Why now: Trump opponents are sharing the news because the dismissed charges are being read as a defeat for the prosecution effort they associate with Trump.
