thepoliticalinsider--2020-06-08--These Riots Were An Act Of War Against Our Republic – There’s No Other Way To View It

What we see happening not only in America but around the world before these riots were the massive exhibition of a “ rebellion against God.

We need to judge people , not by the color of their skin , but by the content of their character .

The irony is that the people who will suffer most because of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the African American community .

DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN WORKING AT THIS FOR A WHILE
It has taken well over 100 years for the previous military wing of the Democrats to reach obscurity finally. It will probably take that long for this one. I am not that old, but I do remember reading about the KKK and the havoc they practiced. It had run its course even then and was on its way in to only being recognized by what is written about it.
We are still in the stage where ANTIFA is practicing domestic terrorism as a means of moving support to their preferred candidates. However, just like the rise of the Klan after the stunning defeat of Democrat policies after the Civil War, these tactics are only used and effective when the political entity employing them has been defeated and is struggling to maintain a hold on power.
It does not look like it now as we are in the middle of history being made, and there is still a possibility they can win, but it is a long shot. The Democrats defeated in the 1800s maintained regional power for many years through a similar type of violence and rhetoric. The same may happen here, with the power regions being in the cities and urban areas instead of the agricultural south. I will likely be long gone when this rabid dog is put down and buried with the Klan.

The fact that they feel they must use this tactic at this time proves they think they are being defeated. And it is our job to make sure that their perception of the situation is true. They must be defeated, and the long battle to push them into obscurity must begin. We must make this their last stand.
FROM A SPIRITUAL PERSPECTIVE
God’s intervention, which comes in the least expected ways, is an ironic gift to America — COVID-19 and ANTIFA Riots. These two events have unmasked the monsters preying from the darkness and subverting our democracy for years.
This evil that has infiltrated every iconic and influential American institution. There is no denying now; the Democrat party has been highjacked by American Neo-Marxists who has finally come into the open. The failed presidential bid of Hillary Clinton was their death blow. They are now fighting for their survival, and with nothing to lose, they are in jihad mode.
These riots were an act of war against our Republic. If it is George Soros or the Chi-Coms funding the instigators. We need to act as if under wartime attack, which includes using lethal force against looters, rioters, and instigators.
OUR CURRENT SITUATION WITH THE RIOTERS
So far, they are only destroying their communities. Soon they will have enough strength to go into the areas where we try to exist in a peaceful and civilized manner. Will we be ready to fight back then? I hope and pray so, but so far, no sign of any meaningful resistance.
MANY AMERICANS ARE ANGRY
I suspect many many Americans are tired of being called racist by intolerant Leftist loons who are themselves among the most bigoted and intolerant people on the planet.

As Americans, we should ALL treat each other with respect and equality, but this is not happening as Leftist loons, including Barack Obama and the Deep State, and the Media seem determined to start a race war as a way to cause chaos and overthrow Pres. Trump. Americans need to reject the incitement coming from.
The likes of Al Sharpton, stand together against the lies of the media and support the police in putting down the rioting carried out by the fascist ‘anti-fascists’ of Antifa and the racist organization best described as Only Black Lives Matter. If we don’t stand together, there will be civil war.

Minneapolis City Council President: Calling Police During House Break In “Comes From A Place Of Privilege”

The President of Minneapolis City Council said that it “ comes from a place of privilege ” to call the police during an attempted burglary or break in .
Bender : “ Calling The Police May Mean More Harm Is Done ” Speaking to CNN ’ s Alisyn Camerota , Lisa Bender , the Minneapolis City Council President , discussed the recent vote for the city to abolish the police department .
“ We have a state action against our police department , which gives us legal mechanisms in the very short term , you know , there is [ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country , all over the world that we ’ re looking to take immediate steps while we work toward building the systems that we would need to imagine that future , ” Bender told Camerota .
“ Do you understand that the word ‘ dismantle ’ or ‘ police-free ’ make some people nervous ?
” Camerota quizzed Bender .

Speaking to CNN’s Alisyn Camerota, Lisa Bender, the Minneapolis City Council President, discussed the recent vote for the city to abolish the police department.
“We have a state action against our police department, which gives us legal mechanisms in the very short term, you know, there is [sic] lessons from all over the country, all over the world that we’re looking to take immediate steps while we work toward building the systems that we would need to imagine that future,” Bender told Camerota.

Bill Maher Slams ‘Reckless’ Lockdowns That Have Fueled Riots – Predicts ‘Blood In The Streets’ After Election

“ Real Time ” host Bill Maher spoke out to blast “ reckless ” lockdowns and to warn that there will be violence after the November election , regardless of who wins it .
While participating in a panel discussion on Friday , Maher called the coronavirus lockdowns “ reckless , ” adding that they have only fueled the violent riots that have broken out all over America in the wake of the death of George Floyd .
“ This lockdown that we ’ ve been living with —do you agree with me ?
— that this has a lot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ streets ?
That when you coop people up and when they have no hope and no job , that they— why not go out in the streets ?
” Maher asked , according to Fox News .
“ I wonder what America will look like , what police departments look like if they have to fight this all the time.
” He continued , “ I feel like this experiment , this reckless experiment in closing down an entire country for months at a time is not going to look good in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” MSNBC analyst Michael Steele , the former chairman of the Republican National Committee , disagreed by saying that most Americans “ saw the rationale ” of staying inside to slow the spread of COVID-19 .
He then praised the Floyd protesters for supposedly “ wearing their masks ” and for showing that people are still “ conscious ” of the pandemic .
Maher , however , was not having any of it , citing the “ 100,000 small businesses ” that have been lost because of the lockdowns , with many of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It ’ s almost about what in the long run is going to cause more death , ” Maher said .
“ The head of the U.N. said a couple of weeks ago he expects hundreds of thousands of children to die because of what we did to the economy .
I know they ’ re not all Americans so they don ’ t count as much to Americans , but I think that matters somewhat.
” Later in the conversation , Maher offered his grim prediction of what will happen in November @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it Trump or be it Joe— there ’ s gon na be blood in the streets , right ?
” Maher explained to the panel .
“ I mean , if Trump wins , I can ’ t imagine the kind of demonstrations we saw the last week not repeating themselves .
And if he doesn ’ t win , we already know Trump ’ s statements .
I can read you his statements about tough people .
… ‘ I have the support of the police , the military , the bikers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
They don ’ t play it tough until they , ’ meaning Democrats , ‘ go to a certain point , and then it would be very bad . '
” Maher added , “ That sounds to me like an invitation for the tough people to get in the streets.
” We don ’ t always agree with Maher , but he makes some good points here .
2020 has already been a crazy year , but it looks like it ’ s about to get a whole lot messier .

Senator Mitt Romney took part in a Black Lives Matter march to the White House this past weekend, drawing ridicule from President Trump.
Romney, the Senator from Utah, was filmed marching with protesters while explaining that he was walking “to make sure that people understand that Black Lives Matter.”
“We need a voice against racism … we need many voices against racism and against brutality,” he said. “And we need to stand up and say black lives matter.”
The President wasn’t too keen on Romney making a march to the White House with a fringe group that blames him for racism in America.

Trump hammered Romney on Twitter with a sarcastic rant that seemed to suggest the senator’s siding with Black Lives Matter was more about politics and less about a sincere concern.

A powerful video is going viral this week showing the moment a female police officer of color confronted Los Angeles City Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez to her face over the proposed budget cuts looming for the city ’ s police officers in the wake of the death of George Floyd .
Sgt .
Jeretta Sanchez , vice president of the L.A. police union , made her disdain for Black Lives Matter known as she confronted Rodriguez , saying that she and city officials had “ bowed down ” to the organization .
“ You bowed down to Black Lives Matter .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ protecting this city … protecting it from being on fire .
If it wasn ’ t for them , this city would be burned down right now .
I promise you this union will go to our grave fighting , ” Sanchez told Rodriguez on Friday as her fellow officers applauded her .
“ We ’ re not letting this happen to these officers .
It ’ s not right.
” Not stopping there , Sanchez torched Rodriguez over the idea of giving “ $ 250 million to Black Lives Matter ” after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ furlough because you didn ’ t have money ” and “ now you ’ re finding the money to give ?
” The officer also highlighted the fact that members of Black Lives Matter threw rocks and bottles at LAPD officers during riots , “ cracking their skulls , ” yet city officials are still listening to BLM members — “ a hundred of them ” — instead of the far greater number of “ law-abiding citizens ” who only want “ these officers to protect them.
” “ And this is what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ concluded , referring to her fellow cops .
“ And now you ’ re cutting from their families , when they put everything on the line ?
We ’ re gon na fight.
” As Sanchez walked away , one of her fellow officers said , “ We ’ ll take care of it at the ballot box.
” This came after Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti announced plans to make $ 250 million in budget cuts and give that money to black communities and other communities of color , with $ 150 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ budget of the LAPD .
“ We must lead , ” Garcetti said , according to KCBS-TV .
“ I got calls from mayors around the country , some of them saying , ‘ I ’ m so excited , ’ the other ones saying , ‘ What the hell did you do ?
Now I [ have to ] shift money.
’ That ’ s exactly the point .
It starts someplace , and we say we are going to be who we want to be , or we ’ re going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are.

A powerful video is going viral this week showing the moment a female police officer of color confronted Los Angeles City Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez to her face over the proposed budget cuts looming for the city’s police officers in the wake of the death of George Floyd.

Not stopping there, Sanchez torched Rodriguez over the idea of giving “$250 million to Black Lives Matter” after officials had placed civilian employees “on furlough because you didn’t have money” and “now you’re finding the money to give?” The officer also highlighted the fact that members of Black Lives Matter threw rocks and bottles at LAPD officers during riots, “cracking their skulls,” yet city officials are still listening to BLM members — “a hundred of them” — instead of the far greater number of “law-abiding citizens” who only want “these officers to protect them.”
