A Black Lives Matter mural in suburban Chicago was painted over this week and now reads “All Lives Matter,” and activists are fuming about it.
“If they cannot understand that all lives don’t matter until black lives matter, they did this out of hatred,” activist and mural organizer Cortlyn Kelly told WLS-TV.
Police are reportedly investigating the incident, and crews have been brought in to clean the mural in the village of Oak Park. It had been created over the course of two days last month by around twenty volunteers who hoped to make it more colorful than other murals of its kind in celebration of Pride month.
Oak Park resident Cullen Benson had come up with the idea for the mural in the wake of the death of George Floyd, who died in Minneapolis police custody back in May. Benson described the mural as “a piece of history to influence generations to come.”
Camille Wilson White, Arts Council executive director, said that seeing the mural “vandalized, defaced this way, it’s shameful.”
“The village is a place of inclusion and to have someone come and destroy someone else’s work is disrespectful and disgusting,” said resident Yolanda Taylor.
Local resident Greg Mayor had a different take on the situation, saying, “if all lives matter, then black lives matter — and why would that upset you other than if you have a different agenda…than all lives matter?”
The mural has since been restored, and activists have added chalk phrases and drawings to underscore the message. The Revolutionary Oak Park Youth Action League also organized a demonstration that involved over one hundred people calling to defund and pull police from schools.
Activist Ray Longstreet sent a message to whoever painted over the mural, saying, “if you were brave enough to come out here and cover this up, you should be brave enough to come be a man and just tell us what you did.”
His fellow activist Makayla Pye added, “If you hear Black Lives Matter and immediately your response is to say ‘All Lives Matter,’ [that] says a lot about how you perceive race.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-11--Hollywood Has Full Meltdown After Trump Commutes Roger Stone’s Sentence – ‘You’re A Sociopath’

Hollywood had a full meltdown on Friday night when President Donald Trump commuted the sentence of Roger Stone .
The White House released a statement on Friday night stating that Stone was a free man after Trump commuted his 40-month prison sentence .
“ Roger Stone is a victim of the Russia Hoax that the Left and its allies in the media perpetuated for years in an attempt to undermine the Trump Presidency , ” the statement said , according to Breitbart News .
“ There was never any collusion between the Trump Campaign , or the Trump Administration , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ targeted by an illegal Witch Hunt that never should have taken place .
It is the other side that are criminals , including Biden and Obama , who spied on my campaign – AND GOT CAUGHT !
” Trump tweeted on Saturday morning .
It didn ’ t take long for Hollywood to lose it over this announcement , with actor and director Rob Reiner kicking things off by tweeting , “ You can free Stone , Flynn , fire prosecutors .
It won ’ t help .
You ’ re going down @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a Criminal and a Moron .
You ’ re gon na lose in a landslide then go to jail.
” Alec Baldwin chimed in to say that he has “ no doubt that there are other crimes Roger Stone may have committed.
” Bette Midler called Trump a “ little stinker ” and branded Stone as a “ little s***.
” How classy !
Mia Farrow put on her tinfoil hat to tweet her own conspiracy theory about the situation , writing , “ Roger Stone lied to Congress , obstructed justice to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Stone ’ s refusal to testify against Trump – in other words Trump is protecting Trump.
” Comedian Chelsea Handler went the sarcastic route , tweeting , “ It ’ s Friday , which means it ’ s time to commute a convicted criminal ’ s sentence.
” Actress Amber Tamblyn bluntly wrote , “ Blatant corruption .
Commuting Roger Stone is less about Trump ’ s friendship with the conman , and more about how much he can get away with , right in front of us.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-11--Black Singer ‘Lady A’ Eviscerates Lady Antebellum For Using Their ‘White Privilege’ To Sue Her Over

Black Singer ‘Lady A’ Eviscerates Lady Antebellum For Using Their ‘White Privilege’ To Sue Her Over Her Name

Anita White , a black gospel singer who has performed under the name “ Lady A ” for decades , is firing back after the country music group formerly known as Lady Antebellum filed a lawsuit against her over the legal use of the name .
In an op-ed published by Rolling Stone , White said that the members of the band are trying to use their “ white privilege ” to take her down , adding that they are trying to “ appropriate ” a name she ’ s used for most of her career in order to “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to appropriate something I used for decades .
Just because I don ’ t have 40 million fans or $ 40 million , that should not matter , ” she wrote .
“ They want to change the narrative by minimizing my voice , by belittling me , and not by telling the entire truth .
I don ’ t think of myself as a victim , but I ’ ve worked too long and too hard to just walk away and say I ’ ll share the name with them.
” The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hillary Scott , Charles Kelley , and Dave Haywood , claims in the lawsuit that it has used the trademark “ Lady A ” for several years .
White , however , is claiming that the band is only changing their name because of the racial tensions that have emerged in the U.S. in the wake of the death of George Floyd .
“ Not wanting a name that is a reminder to many black folks of how so much was taken from us : our freedom , languages , families , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she wrote .
“ However , to do so by taking the name on which I , a Black woman , have built my career in the music industry for over 20 years , is ironic .
“ Lady Antebellum to Lady A didn ’ t change the connotation or yield to them being inclusive , ” White added .
“ They are yet again using their privilege to take because I don ’ t want to share in the name .
They brought this to the forefront .
I didn ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their word , their name would have completely changed .
They have the means and the power.
” White admitted to saying the band could have the name if they paid her $ 10 million , adding that half of the money would be donated to the Black Lives Matter movement .
The band , however , was not interested in paying her .
“ They came back with their agreement , which didn ’ t address my concerns , and I knew what they wanted , ” she wrote .
“ They @ @ @ @ @ @ @ along .
They wanted me to make them look good in the eyes of the public , and that ’ s why that Zoom call was so important to them .
It wasn ’ t important to me .
I went along with it figuring maybe they ’ d keep at their word , but that didn ’ t happen.
” White accused the band of publicizing her desire to get paid just to make her look bad .
“ They do this to make me look bad , like I ’ m @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she added .
“ I didn ’ t need their money before .
I have a job that I ’ m retiring from , and I have music that I do .
My life was happy before I met them .

And if they ’ re saying they ’ re an ally , they are lying to the American public.
” It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ effort to appear “ woke ” has blown up in face of the band formerly known as Lady Antebellum .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-10--Ricky Gervais Torches Cancel Culture And ‘Outrage Mobs – Says ‘The Office’ Could Never Be Made Today

British comedian Ricky Gervais just spoke out to blast cancel culture and “ outrage mobs , ” saying that they would make it impossible for him to ever make his hit show “ The Office ” today .
During an interview with Times Radio on Friday , Gervais said that if “ The Office ” was made today , many audience members would take it too “ literally , ” despite the fact that the show was “ clearly ironic.
” “ Now [ the show ] would suffer because people would take things literally .
There are these outrage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” Gervais explained .
“ This was a show about everything — it was about difference , it was about sex , race , all the things that people fear to even be discussed or talked about now , in case they say the wrong thing and they are canceled.
” He went on to add that the BBC , which is funded by British taxpayers , has become “ more and more careful ” about making sure there is political correctness in their comedy .
“ People want to keep their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the subjects and jokes , even though they were clearly ironic and we were laughing at this buffoon being uncomfortable around difference , ” Gervais said .
“ I think if this was put out now , some people have lost their sense of irony and context.
” The 59 year-old comedic actor lamented the fact that there is “ no nuance or discussion ” about comedy nowadays , as it has instead just become “ two tribes of people screaming.
” “ I genuinely think I don ’ t do anything @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he said .
“ Some people now don ’ t care about the argument or the issue , they just want to own someone , they want to win the argument.

“ I ’ m an old fashioned liberal lefty , champagne socialist type of guy , ” Gervais said last year .

A former CNN producer is speaking out this week to call out host Don Lemon , who he says is hurting the network with his “ divisive ” and “ boring ” show .
He also said that CNN as a whole has shown “ a lack of self-awareness ” during the Donald Trump era .
Former CNN senior digital producer Steve Krakauer cited a series of “ embarrassing ” moments from Lemon , like lecturing actor Terry Crews about Black Lives Matter and laughing when a guest mocked Trump supporters .
“ It ’ s unfortunate , and it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Don , and he has a staff that is full of talented people .
But the current dismissiveness of anything resembling dissent on his show – any straying from the company line – makes his program one of the more divisive on CNN , and , frankly , one of the more boring too , ” Krakauer told Fox News .
He added that though Lemon was once enjoyable to watch , “ that was the pre-Trump Don Lemon , ” adding that the host telling Crews that Black Lives Matter has nothing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ particularly divisive and embarrassing ” for CNN .
“ It was Lemon at his most arrogant and ignorant , ” Krakauer explained .
“ Lemon ’ s biggest talent was his curiosity — it allowed his viewers to relate to him .
Segments like the interview with Crews show the curiosity is sadly gone.
” Krakauer then shifted to targeting Anderson Cooper , who he said was “ fear-mongering about COVID-19″ when he asked a doctor if kids going back to school in the fall will cause people to die .
Steve @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who now works as the spokesperson for America First , a pro-Trump Super PAC .
He wrote on Twitter this week that a recent segment in which Lemon and Chris Cuomo downplayed a recent surge in violence in American cities was a “ new low ” for the network .
“ [ Lemon ] and [ Cuomo ] actually mock the worries of people who live in dangerous cities .
I ’ m one of those concerned citizens — and we don ’ t deserve such mocking condescension , ” he added .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the network sees itself in an “ existential fight ” with the president .
“ I think it [ if ] many CNN employees stepped back and could view the coverage objectively , they ’ d agree that there is an ‘ angle ’ to coverage that previously simply presented facts , ” Krakauer said .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-12--Five Guys Employees Refuse To Serve Alabama Cops – End Up Getting Fired

Some employees of a Five Guys restaurant in Alabama just got hit with a brutal dose of karma after they refused to serve police officers .
Five Guys have mitigated all employees involved in the anti-police instance .
It all started last Tuesday , when three officers with the Daphne Police Department went to their local Five Guys restaurant .
It was only when they got inside that they realized that the establishment had a mandatory mask rule , so they went back to their cruisers to grab some face masks , according to AL.com .
When they went to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ employees refused to serve them and instead turned their backs on them .
The Five Guys restaurant where this took place has since said that all of these workers were either fired or suspended .
“ Five Guys and the Daphne , AL franchise want to thank the Daphne Police Department for their support in working together toward a resolution , ” the restaurant said on Facebook .
“ The actions the Daphne , AL franchise have taken include termination and suspension of the employees involved.
” “ The store has temporarily closed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with a representative from the Daphne Police Department , ” the restaurant continued .
“ As we uphold our commitment to fair , respectful , and equal treatment for all customers , please know that the actions and sentiments of a few employees in Daphne , AL do not represent Five Guys or the local franchisee.
” The Five Guys corporate office also released a statement about the situation : “ Five Guys and the franchisee are actively investigating the situation and are committed to getting to the bottom of it .
However @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , we do not want these police officers , or any customer , to feel disrespected or slighted in anyway .
We apologize to those officers and also want to make it clear that Five Guys and its franchisees are committed to fair , respectful , and equal treatment for all customers .
We will continue to investigate the matter.
” The Daphne Police Department released a statement as well : “ The Daphne Police Department appreciates the outpouring of support from our community and from supporters of Law Enforcement across the country @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Guys on a corporate and local level .

Some employees of a Five Guys restaurant in Alabama just got hit with a brutal dose of karma after they refused to serve police officers. Five Guys have mitigated all employees involved in the anti-police instance.
It all started last Tuesday, when three officers with the Daphne Police Department went to their local Five Guys restaurant. It was only when they got inside that they realized that the establishment had a mandatory mask rule, so they went back to their cruisers to grab some face masks, according to AL.com.
When they went to place their orders, however, the employees refused to serve them and instead turned their backs on them.
The Five Guys restaurant where this took place has since said that all of these workers were either fired or suspended.
“Five Guys and the Daphne, AL franchise want to thank the Daphne Police Department for their support in working together toward a resolution,” the restaurant said on Facebook. “The actions the Daphne, AL franchise have taken include termination and suspension of the employees involved.”
“The store has temporarily closed for further education and customer service training with a representative from the Daphne Police Department,” the restaurant continued. “As we uphold our commitment to fair, respectful, and equal treatment for all customers, please know that the actions and sentiments of a few employees in Daphne, AL do not represent Five Guys or the local franchisee.”
The Five Guys corporate office also released a statement about the situation:
“Five Guys and the franchisee are actively investigating the situation and are committed to getting to the bottom of it. However, no matter what the details are, we do not want these police officers, or any customer, to feel disrespected or slighted in anyway. We apologize to those officers and also want to make it clear that Five Guys and its franchisees are committed to fair, respectful, and equal treatment for all customers. We will continue to investigate the matter.”
The Daphne Police Department released a statement as well:
“The Daphne Police Department appreciates the outpouring of support from our community and from supporters of Law Enforcement across the country. We also want to thank Five Guys on a corporate and local level. We have been working through this situation and there has been total cooperation. The Daphne Police Department does not think that the actions of a few employees represents Five Guys as a whole.”
Anti-police sentiments have been at an all-time high in the U.S. in recent weeks in the wake of the death of George Floyd. This serves as a reminder that police officers need our support now more than ever, and that those who disrespect them deserve whatever punishments are meted out.

Ricky Gervais Doubles Down On Cancel Culture Attack – ‘People Will Call You Hitler If You’re Mildly Conservative On Twitter’

On Friday , we reported that British comedian Ricky Gervais had launched an attack on cancel culture and outrage mobs .
Now , he is doubling down by going after the “ fascists ” who want to shut down free speech , saying that “ if you ’ re mildly conservative on Twitter people call you Hitler.
” “ There ’ s this new weird sort of fascism of people thinking they know what you can say and what you can ’ t and it ’ s a really weird thing…that there ’ s this new trendy myth that people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ awful things all the time .
It just isn ’ t true , it protects everyone , ” Gervais said in a new interview .
Not stopping there , Gervais said that the people who are trying to shut down free speech in the name of combatting “ hate speech ” are “ fascists ” who from “ behind this bit the shield of goodness , ” say “ we ’ re good , we ’ re social just warriors , we ’ re doing this for good and what we say goes…and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and wrong that is.
” “ If you ’ re mildly left-wing on Twitter , you ’ re suddenly Trotsky , right ?
If your mildly conservative , if you ’ re Hitler and if your centrist and you look at both arguments , you ’ re a coward , ” he added .
The legendary “ The Office ” star went on to say that nations should never criminalize speech that “ someone , somewhere , might find offensive…because someone , somewhere might find everything offensive.
” “ Just because you ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you ’ re right , ” Gervais said , adding that in today ’ s culture , the phrase “ I ’ m offended ” has replaced the need to come up with any kind of argument .
Gervais concluded by saying that it is impossible to police “ hate speech ” because there ’ s “ no consensus on what hate speech is , ” which is why it becomes dangerous for one side to determine the rules around it , as “ the people who think they want to close down @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bad , are the fascists.
” This came days after Gervais said that his beloved show “ The Office ” could never be made today because “ outrage mobs ” would take things out of context and cause the show to be cancelled .
He also lamented how difficult comedy has become thanks to political correctness .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-11--Goya Foods Sales Take Off After Liberal Boycott

Goya Foods CEO Bob Unanue said on Friday that he is not surrendering to a boycott over his visit to the White House .
“ We ’ re all truly blessed at the same time to have a leader like President Trump , who is a builder , ” said Unanue , who is of Latin descent , at the White House event .
“ We were part of a commission called the White House Hispanic Prosperity Initiative and they called on us to be there to see how we could help opportunities within the economic and educational realm for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ States , ” Unanue told the media .
Behind Mexico , the United States is the second-largest Hispanic country in the world behind Mexico .
Liberal Hispanic-hating politicians and airhead Hollywood celebrities are boycotting Goya , the largest Hispanic-owned food company in the country because of the CEO ’ s praise of the president .
But the American public is doing the opposite and from coast to coast , New York to California , Goya products are flying off shelves as consumers who have not previously purchased Goya products are doing so now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump .
On Saturday afternoon at a Giant grocery store in Severna Park , Maryland , a quiet DC suburban community that is not exactly a hotbed of Latin culture or residence , Goya products were quickly disappearing , as shoppers prepared to make meals with such Hispanic staples as Mojo marinade and classic Latin spices such as coriander and annatto .
Goya has also been a leader in philanthropy , donating millions of pounds of products to food kitchens and homeless shelters around the nation .
At the event in question , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ House on Thursday and signed an executive order on the White House Hispanic Prosperity Initiative to use more taxpayer support for private and charter schools and “ improve access by Hispanic Americans to education and economic opportunities.
” Self-hating Hispanics Rep. Alexandria-Ocasio Cortez ( D-NY ) and failed former Democrat presidential candidate Julian Castro of Texas pathetically tried to curry favor with Anglo-Saxon liberals by bowing and scraping before the altar of political correctness .
To no avail , as their cowardice and Quisling behavior only cemented their image as craven sellouts of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ own heritage .
Though one must admit , as both are of Puerto Rican and Mexican heritage respectively , a savory Cuban and/or South American meal may be beyond their culinary ken .
In alliance with the Uncle Tacos , a number of comically stupid celebrities took aim at Goya on social media with hashtags like # BoycottGoya and # GOYAWAY .
Many urged people who use Goya products to start buying foods produced by the company ’ s competitors .
As reported earlier , Americans are doing exactly the opposite , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the counsel of the Hollywood crowd .
Goya CEO Unanue called the pushback a “ suppression of speech.
” Unanue said that he was previously invited to the White House for an event hosted by the Obama administration for Hispanic Heritage Month .
“ So , you ’ re allowed to talk good or to praise one president , but you ’ re not allowed to aid in economic and educational prosperity ?
And you make a positive comment and all of a sudden , it is not acceptable , ” Unanue said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for his remarks supporting Trump ’ s economic policy and would not turn down other future invitations .
Why would he ?
The Trump invitation and subsequent liberal boycott has made his company lots of money .

What ’ s the matter with Minnesota ?
Just because Omar was elected to Congress doesn ’ t mean she isn ’ t a traitor .

Her tenure in Congress is imperiled because her Congressional district in Minneapolis will be redrawn when Minnesota loses a Congressional seat as a result of the 2020 census .

OMAR DOESN’T BELIEVE IN CONGRESSIONAL OATH
I believe Omar has broken her Oath of Office for a U.S. Congressman. That means she must step down from her office. Will the Supreme Court follow through on their duties? Or will they also break their Oath of Office?
“I, (Ilhan Omar), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”
She also took an oath of allegiance when she became a US citizen. What’s the matter with Minnesota?
Just because Omar was elected to Congress doesn’t mean she isn’t a traitor. Her attitude towards America, Americans, and American interests are more aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood than our Constitution.
Her tenure in Congress is imperiled because her Congressional district in Minneapolis will be redrawn when Minnesota loses a Congressional seat as a result of the 2020 census.

OMAR IS NOT ABOUT SALVAGING OUR COUNTRY’S BLUEPRINT
Our Founders, in their wisdom, realized that democracies were just another form of tyranny over the individual. It does not matter whether one man, one group of men, or a majority of men enslave you — you are still a slave.
We were founded as a constitutionally protected, democratically elected, representative government with checks and balances to curb the ambitions of those that would lord over us — whether it be for personal gain or our “own good.”
That is the Republic that they bequeathed us — if we can keep it.
There is a reason for the Bill of Rights and a slow and tedious process to amend the Constitution. It was to keep temporary politicians from usurping our functioning Republic and factious mobs from destroying our system of justice.
We are a nation of political will and always have been. Do we still have the will to save our Republic — I wonder!
IT’S ALMOST LIKE OMAR DOESN’T EVEN CARE
Omar is like so many members of congress: they use their oaths of office as the magic words to gain entrance into the Political Gangsters’ Paradise, Washington D.C. This kind of bait and switch by our politicians has been going on for decades, maybe over a century, but the electorate lines up every election cycle and votes them in again and again.

As we can see with Omar, the oath that she took means absolutely nothing to her and should be considered null and void.
She allegedly paid her adulterer husband $900,000 in the last two years and nothing will happen. She allegedly married and divorced her own brother and still, she is free to badmouth this country and to call for its destruction. Nice job Minnesota voters – you built this.
Remove her from the office she currently holds. She needs more time to answer for her crimes, anyway.

Do what you want to do, and as YOU see fit unto yourself and in your daily doings providing that it does not involve committing some grievous harm to someone else in the process pretty much.
Learn the basics of the law and respect and understand the ‘why’ behind it but past that makes your plans and lives your life and maybe even enjoys yourself and tells the Old World philosophers and stick-in-the-mud dogmatists to give all that mess a break.

The United States has problems, but there’s also cool interesting and exciting stuff going on. The establishmentarians might like to turn it all into a lock-stepped digitally regulated prison,. Still, other people would like them to go and spend the day at the library and not bother others, thank you very much.
Give others their liberty as we enjoy our own and have some respect for the common man as well as our national institutions such as they are. Beware large crowds of angry people, and please don’t litter. Don’t cough on me.
Trump 2020.

Atlas argued that the narrative that re-opening policies were causing the recent spikes just weren ’ t true .
“ When you really look closely at these so-called re-opening policies , whether it ’ s in Georgia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , we didn ’ t really see a big correlation of cases and hospitalizations from that .
That ’ s really not true .
That ’ s sort of some sloppy thinking , I think , again .
We really have to look closely at why these things are happening , ” he said .
“ By the way , California didn ’ t really reopen .
Yet they have cases coming up , ” Atlas noted .
“ Why is that ?
I mean , that ’ s because these cases don @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They correlate mainly to two things – the big thousands and thousands of people with protesting , sharing megaphones , screaming .
That ’ s a setup to spread cases .
And also when you look at the analyses of the border counties , there ’ s a tremendous amount of cases coming over the border and exchanging with families in the northern Mexico states.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-13--Juanita Broaddrick Slaps Down David Hogg Over AR-15 Comments

Juanita Broaddrick gave young gun-grabber David Hogg a smack down on Twitter after he attacked the NRA for praising the AR-15 rifle .
On Friday , the National Rifle Assocation , potentially in response to the number of violent riots that we ’ re seeing across the country right now , put out a tweet arguing that the AR-15 was the “ modern day musket , ” in that it is “ an everyday gun for everyday citizens.
” This was jumped on by a number of anti-gun activists , lambasting the NRA for being supposed child killers , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other insults .
This included 20-year-old David Hogg , a survivor of the Parkland school shooting in Florida in January of 2018 .
Unlike his fellow survivor , Kyle Kashuv , who promotes responsible gun ownership and genuine solutions to the problems of mass shooting attacks , Hogg simply wants to take your firearms away , and he is very proud of saying that .
“ 6 minutes 20 seconds is all it took for the shooter at my high school to fire over 100 rounds from his AR-15 to shoot 34 people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that same amount of time even the most trained person would have only been able to fire 18 rounds with a musket .
Modern day musket my ass , ” he continued .
This comment didn ’ t go unnoticed by Juanita Broaddrick , who called him out on his lack of comments when radical leftists and antifa members actually broke gun laws .
“ Where was your outrage when the leader of Chaz was handing out AR-15 ’ s like candy ?
” Broaddrick asked Hogg .
This was in reference to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone last month , where their gangland leader , Raz Simone , gave a number of antifa members AR-15s , contravening Washington state ’ s laws on the transfer of firearms .
This is really typical of the modern left .
They have no actual understanding of gun laws , and when they do , they ignore when their compatriots break them !
They don ’ t want to save lives – they just want to get rid of your valued freedoms .

I served 24 years as an Army infantryman so I know this to be true: An AR-15 is an M16 without selective fire. It’s designed for one purpose: To kill humans efficiently and with minimal training of the shooter. It has no business being in civilian hands. — MustangZeroFive (@MustangZeroFive) July 12, 2020

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-13--Kayleigh McEnany Calls Out Bill Clinton For Pardoning His Half-Brother As She Defends Trump

On Monday , White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany was quick to defend President Donald Trump commuting the sentence of Roger Stone , describing it as a “ very important moment for justice ” that is a direct contrast to the way other presidents abused their pardoning powers .
McEnany said that Stone never should have been charged in the first place , adding that then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller was charging various people with “ process crimes ” in order to “ justify the waste in tax dollars ” on a “ completely bogus witch hunt.
” She added that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ official Andrew McCabe , director of the CIA under President Obama John Brennan , and Obama ’ s Director of National Intelligence James Clapper were accused of making false statements just as Stone was , yet they were never charged .
“ Last time I checked they didn ’ t have 29 FBI agents wearing tactical gear showing up at their house in a pre-dawn raid , ” McEnany said , according to Fox News .
“ Instead , McCabe and Brennan and these guys are given lucrative contracts , books , contributorships.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ as “ the president of criminal justice reform , ” adding that the Stone commutation was just the latest in a long line of unfairly harsh sentences that he has commuted .
McEnany pointed out that while Trump has made just 36 commutations so far in his presidency , Obama had issued 1,927 .
Not stopping there , McEnany called out former President Bill Clinton for pardoning his half-brother on drug charges .
“ You talk about a politically connected pardon , it can ’ t get more politically connected than pardoning your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” she said .
She cited other pardons that Clinton made during his presidency as more signs of corruption , including his pardon of his former associate Susan McDougal , who he pardoned after she refused to testify about Clinton ’ s role in the Whitewater scandal .
“ There really are two standards of justice in this country , ” McEnany said , quoting Rep. Adam Schiff ( D-CA ) , who had said the same thing upon hearing about Stone ’ s pardon .
“ As Adam Schiff noted , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the facts to back up that term the way he meant , ” she added .

McEnany said that Stone never should have been charged in the first place, adding that then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller was charging various people with “process crimes” in order to “justify the waste in tax dollars” on a “completely bogus witch hunt.”
She added that it was “curious” that ex-FBI official Andrew McCabe, director of the CIA under President Obama John Brennan, and Obama’s Director of National Intelligence James Clapper were accused of making false statements just as Stone was, yet they were never charged.
