The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel is reporting that the agreement with the DNC would have resulted in over 1,000 police officers from various agencies to provide security for the DNC.
Fond du Lac Police Chief William Lamb explained why limiting officers’ use of crowd control measures creates a dangerous situation.
“We believe (that) in removing those tools, the use of chemical irritants or pepper spray, from the available resources that the law enforcement officers would have at their disposal if protests become non-peaceful would severely compromise the safety of the public and also the safety of the law enforcement officers who would be assigned to protect the DNC,” he explained.
Franklin Police Chief Rick Oliva added, “I can not send personnel if they are not properly equipped or will not be allowed to engage in appropriate actions which would ensure their safety.”

The irony here is that any Democrat attendees to the convention will be getting a taste of what their ‘defund the police’ policies are bringing to America.

We all want to stop police brutality, but cutting funding to police departments like so many Dems want to do doesn’t stop abuses, it just makes communities (particularly impoverished communities) less safe.

He was clear and concise about his independence from the administration.
“The President has not attempted to interfere in these decisions,” he stated. “On the contrary, he has told me from the start that he expects me to exercise my independent judgment to make whatever call I think is right.”
In other words, not a henchman by any means.

“I’ve read a lot about hydroxy,” Trump said, referring to a study from the Henry Ford Health System. The President also cited the reported effectiveness of the drug according to Yale School of Public Health Dr. Harvey Risch.
However, Trump’s own COVID task force leader, Dr. Fauci, noted the shortcomings of the Ford Health study later in the week: “The Henry Ford hospital study that was published was a noncontrolled retrospective cohort study that was confounded by a number of issues, including the fact that many of the people who were receiving hydroxychloroquine were also receiving corticosteroids, which we know from another study gives a clear benefit in reducing deaths with advanced disease.”
Further, Fauci said, “So, that study is a flawed study. And I think anyone who examines it carefully sees that it is not a randomized, placebo-controlled trial.”
Trump himself is convinced that the opposition to hydroxychloroquine was merely the same old partisan politics.
Trump said, “I think it could have a very positive impact in the early stages, and I don’t think you lose anything by doing it, other than politically, it doesn’t seem to be too popular, you know why?”

Why is it most of us can call our city governments to complain about something and nothing ever happens, but when some woke crackpot calls to complain about something they decide is political, the city contorts itself to create new policies to appease the anti-cop mob?
They’ve ordered firefighters to remove Thin Blue Line flags from their apparatus— “after a citizen complaint.” Yes, singular.
According to the Patriot Ledger, in Hingham, Massachusetts, some woke malcontent has decided that a flag exclusively intended to honor police officers is actually a political message. Imagine how far our nation has fallen that honoring police officers is now political, even according to some police and fire chiefs.
Fire Chief Steve Murphy and Police Chief Glenn Olsson issued letters to employees notifying them they must remove Thin Blue Line flags from city vehicles. Firefighters initially placed the flags on their fire trucks and engines to honor Weymouth police Sgt. Michael Chesna, who was killed in the line of duty.
The chiefs contend the flags have “taken on a different political meaning.” Not if you don’t let it, they haven’t. The flag means what it has always meant. That staunchly anti-cop people don’t like it is not surprising, and it does not change the inherent meaning of the flag.
By that calculus, the American flag has become political as well, right? Lots of folks hatin’ on America just like they’re hatin’ on the cops these days. Will American flags be next?
Also not surprising, the firefighters are refusing to take the Thin Blue Line flags off their firefighting rigs. The two chiefs insist that the flag violates the town’s prohibition on displaying “political messaging.” The firefighters are standing their ground and have it right; it’s not political.
The “Hingham Firefighters Local 2398 took to Facebook to make it clear that displaying the flag at the anniversary of Chesna’s death was to support the ‘law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line every day,’ and was ‘at no time’ meant to be a political statement.
Officer.com is reporting the Hingham firefighters’ union is requesting “the town reconsider their decision to deem the flags as political statements.”
They added, “We regret to inform you that over the past four days no member of Local 2398 was able to sacrifice his or her moral fortitude in order to remove the flags from the apparatus.”
The firefighters are standing by their “initial statement that this has no political message for one reason, and one reason only, because honoring the sacrifices made by the men and women of law enforcement is not political. Period.”
As a retired police officer married to a retired firefighter whose father was a cop in Massachusetts for 36 years, I cannot argue with that.

“ He hasn ’ t directly called me or anything , but no , ” Tlaib told Newsweek magazine about backing Biden for president .
“ Right now I ’ m focused on my election , my constituents and my residents .
Residents come up to me and say , ‘ Rashida , I don ’ t know .
I hear Joe Biden this , Joe Biden that ’ …If the ultimate goal is to get rid of Donald Trump , that doesn ’ t have to involve me actually endorsing Biden , ” she added .
“ My constituents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down in , ‘ Is he the best candidate ?
’ That ’ s not what you have to convince my residents.
” Wow .
That is classic weasely politician in trouble befuddled footwork .
She tries to say everything , actually says nothing , and hopes nobody notices .
She ’ s caught between her own radical well-wishers , who loathe Biden for being too moderate by their standards , and the majority of her district ( black voters ) who accept Biden as their presumptive presidential nominee .
One of those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and smart money to be the victor in next week ’ s primary election .
Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones says this about our loud and obnoxious pal Rashida : “ You can be vocal , but the things that were being done — like calling the president a ‘ MF ’ or booing Hillary — every time something like that happened , I was getting calls from people saying ‘ You ’ re more professional than this .
I ’ m not interested in being a rock star .
I ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ money , working for the people of the 13th district and uniting the community.
” But Nancy Pelosi , true to her turf-protecting instincts in the event of a Biden win , is sticking with Tlaib .
Because if Tlaib can pull off the primary win , she ’ ll owe Nancy bigtime , not Joe .
The main factor in Tlaib ’ s race is , well , race .
The district is predominantly black and , Tlaib aside , has been a black U.S. House seat for generations .
And it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ voters have ethnic and racial loyalties .
Perhaps if Tlaib had been less of a show-horse and concentrated on constituent service .
But while she was frothing against the president and even booing Hillary Clinton ( credit for that one Rashida ) , Jones , as the president of a city council , was likely dealing with voters and the community on a very one-on-one retail basis .
So if Detroit and the nation are lucky next week , we will trade a screeching lunatic in for a garden variety liberal .

According to The United States of America v. Antonio Brown indictment, Councilman Brown’s alleged fraudulent activities spanned several years for which he is charged with mail fraud, bank fraud, wire fraud, and rendering false statements on a bank loan application.
According to U.S. Attorney Byung J. Pak, “For years, Antonio Brown allegedly sought to defraud a number of banks and credit card companies by falsely claiming that he was the victim of identity theft,” believed to be Brown’s way of making good on the loans’ repayment stipulations.
Per the Atlanta Business Chronicle:
“Brown is also alleged to have provided false information to Signature Bank when applying for a $75,000 loan in August 2017. During the loan application process, Brown allegedly provided a personal financial statement falsely claiming that he earned $325,000 per year and had $200,000 in available cash or assets. Brown allegedly knew this information was false because he had recently submitted other loan applications reporting less income and available cash or assets. According to prosecutors, in a July 2017 loan application submitted to a separate bank, Brown submitted a 2016 federal income tax return reporting that he earned $125,000 per year, and in an August 2017 loan application to a third bank, Brown claimed to have an annual salary of $175,000 and $25,000 in available cash and assets.”
Stemming from the indictment’s alleged offenses involving various methods which Brown purportedly used, an alphabet soup of federal agencies are involved in the investigation of Brown, including the U.S. Postal Service, the Social Security Administration and the Internal Revenue Service—each of which have their own criminal investigation division.
According to Mr. Brown’s Atlanta City Council bio, he grew up “in poverty with his parents frequently incarcerated, Antonio discovered he had the resilience and drive to overcome adversity & achieve success.” It also mentions “inspirational work ethic.”
Given (un)ethical implications pertaining to Mr. Brown’s alleged cheating scheme, it’s fair to assume the federal government has enough probable cause supported by evidence to prove the city councilman of Atlanta did, in fact, take possession of the two automobiles and other acquisitions stemming from the multiple fraudulent applications by which he sought to gain goods.
Moreover, upon analyzing the indictment in its entirety, several transactions the federal government alleges were made by Brown would highly likely engender video footage depicting his physical presence (multiple commercial airline ticket purchases for travel to/from varying international airports and destinations during which official identification is requisite in a post-9/11 age).
Social Security Administration Inspector General Gail S Ennis stated, “We are committed to working with our federal law enforcement partners to aggressively pursue those who falsely claim their identity was stolen in an attempt to defraud financial institutions.”

Oregon chief: ‘This is criminal activity’
“These aren’t late night demonstrations,” Williams replied. “This is criminal activity. There’s a difference.”
“What you have failed and the media have failed to distinguish, between, you seem unwilling to call people engaged in criminal conduct, as criminals, as opposed to lawful protesting,” he said.
“This is unlawful,” Williams continued. “And people, whether you’re an opportunist, an antagonist, an agitator, or an anarchist, call it out for what it is.”
Why doesn't the msm show this chaos? As Portland PD stated, this is "criminal activity", blocking police from responding to emergencies.

This isn’t mere ‘late night activity’
The reporter followed up, “So, you’re saying the late night activity that is criminal?”
“What I’m telling you, is you seem to refuse to call something, ‘late night activity,’ this is criminal,” Williams shot back.
When he asked the reporter why she would not describe the violent riots as “criminal,” she said because she doesn’t have “all the police records,” and that it isn’t her “job” because she is “not a police officer.”
As I’ve already said, this is not a protest.

“We prepared the incoming administration with a ‘Pandemic for Dummies’ playbook and a tabletop exercise and so many other briefings,” she said.
The media have been anxiously pushing a narrative that the Trump administration ditched that playbook. The reality, according to White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany, is that the Obama pandemic response plan was inadequate.
