On October 13, 2021 during a public executive council meeting headed by Sununu, which was attended by approximately 150 people and which was policed by about 80 New Hampshire state troopers brought in by Sununu in an excessive show of force, nine people were illegally arrested without warning by the state troopers at Sununu's behest in collusion with the troopers<ref>[https://granitegrok.com/mg_windham/2021/10/caught-on-camera-did-nh-gov-sununu-coordinate-and-trigger-unfounded-police-state-arrests CAUGHT ON CAMERA! Did NH Gov. Sununu Coordinate and Trigger Unfounded “POLICE STATE” Arrests?]</ref> on false charges of "disorderly conduct" (even though, in reality, those nine people were quietly praying in protest of Sununu's [[RINO]] policies and had been respectful throughout); one of the protesters, A.J. Todd, was falsely arrested for questioning the troopers' illegal actions.  Sununu was publicly criticized soon after the meeting, along with a call for investigation of his actions,<ref>[https://granitegrok.com/blog/2021/10/why-is-nh-governor-sununu-not-under-investigation Why is NH Governor Sununu NOT UNDER INVESTIGATION?]</ref> for abusing his power and vindictively retaliating against those opposed to his policies by frivolously using law enforcement to illegally arrest vocal opponents, with some critics pointing out that Sununu's actions were akin to those of Nazi Germany and Communist China, who took similar actions against political opponents who questioned and criticized those countries' policies.  In June 2023, all of the false charges against the nine protesters were dismissed due to lack of a case against them following public scrutiny and criticism of Sununu's weaponization of law enforcement for his purposes (including illegal violation of the protesters' First Amendment rights).<ref>Two references:
