thewashingtonstandard--2020-02-14--President’s Big Bucks Budget Request Filled With Unconstitutional, Deficit Spending

Anti Fed Ed Warriors , it ’ s been a couple of days since the Fiscal Year ( FY ) 2021 Presidential Budget ’ s been released .
Yes , you ’ ve probably seen many articles about the taxpayers savings , especially in the name of ‘ education ’ .
No , I ’ m not behind in sharing news , I ’ ve been pouring over the 100+ pages of the Budget to bring you the truth .
Not , what I think will garner votes or will make great headlines .
We ’ ve suffered enough fools @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it to ourselves and other taxpayers to look deeper into this Budget .
Warriors , I want to draw your attention to two facts : a ) This isn ’ t the first time I ’ ve raked over Presidential Budgets .
b ) Look at the definition of ‘ budget ’ .
Webster ’ s Dictionary tells us it ’ s the breakdown of a spending plan .
“ MyMoneyCoach ” tells us that budgeting is balancing your expenses with your income .
Warriors , the USA is not balancing expenses/income !
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ many years to this end .
If you look at the government process of creating a budget , it smacks totally of CCSS Math .
Look at the National Debt Clock .
Warriors , as you know , if you ’ ve visited this website before , that the numbers are constantly changing .
At present , the debt is growing , not shrinking .
Be sure to visit the site for a real time glimpse .
However , above , I ’ ve pointed out for you the imbalance between income and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ If you ’ re not sure how the Presidential Budget works , it ’ s this .
The President and advisors come up with figures for specific programs and pet projects .
Within the pages , it ’ s pointed out that the President and advisors then go on to encourage each federal department to create a budget within the amounts specified .
Congress has to approve ALL the budget plans .
So rather than a strict Presidential Budget , it ’ s actually Presidential Budget REQUESTS .
I don ’ t know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if this is the cycle , why is DC not acknowledging that until income/expenses are balanced , there should be zero budget requests ?
My friends , we , should be sounding the alarm that BAD government can not and will not repair , or keep ‘ great ’ , our nation .
We have a civic duty to shut down BAD government and fix it , before opening government back up .
Yet , we don ’ t .
Why ?
NOW , more than ever , we should fulfill that duty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ US-Mexico-Canada Agreement ) being signed into the implementation phase , EVERYTHING we know will change .
Most of all , education .
It ’ s nothing BUT indentured servitude .
Warriors , much of the Press Release language ( to accompany the Budget Requests ) was all about the need for federal level research and development of AI ( Artificial Intelligence ) for non-defensive use .
Taxpayer funds to pull this off ?
$ 142.2 billion .
This leads to “ Industries of the Future ” and will embed STEM ( Science , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) into even more of our schools , at ALL age levels and our entire workforce .
A $ 50 million dollar amount is to go to the NSF ( National Science Foundation ) to targe community colleges , HBCUs ( Historically Black College/Universities ) and Minority Service Institutions ( MSIs ) .
NSF will receive another $ 230 million for QIS ( Quantam Information Sciences ) ; at least $ 25 million will be for a national Q internet .
Where else will the STEM ‘ education ’ pop up ?
U.S. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ million for AI .
Energy ’ s Science Office will receive $ 237 million for national labs , national education , and national jobs .
U.S. Dept .
of Agriculture for STEM ’ s biotech gets $ 100 million .
U. S. Health and Human Services ’ arm NIH ( National Institutes of Health ) for AI in chronic illnesses , $ 50 million .
Also in the press release , was the directive to insert AI into every single federal agency ’ s budget to report to Congress , including U.S. Dept @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ American AI Initiative ” .
This will also harmonize QIS across all federal agencies as well ( ties back to the 2018 law , National Quantam Inititiative Act . )
This Act embedded a school to work pipeline for STEM .
This Act , as well as the FY 2021 Budget Requests increases the amounts of P3s ( Public Private Partnerships ) in America , for economic and job purposes .
Warriors , here ’ s the Budget Requests document .
The U.S. Dept .
of Education ’ s portion can be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ However , well before Ed ’ s portion , you can find ‘ education ’ mentioned .
For example , on Page 5 ( under the section “ Building a Better Tomorrow ” ) , you ’ ll find closing the ‘ skills gap ’ by increasing vocational tech under CTE ( Career Tech Education ) and increasing apprenticeships .
Cost ?
Nearly $ 1 billion dollars exclusively for CTE .
Contrast that with Page 7 where fewer education and training opportunities for tech based global economy will suffer if we don ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on Page 21 , learn how by involving the ‘ private sector ’ into government will be an economic gain , but also tie to education ‘ attainment ’ levels .
( *Note : The USMCA aligns education attainment to jobs available . )
What else ties to ‘ education ’ in this section for Better Tomorrow ?
SNAP benefits , Page 25 ; Page 26 , WIC funds reach $ 5.5 billion .
( Both are used in school systems ) .
Then , from Page 30 , this about 5G : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be found in education at ALL levels .
Why are we seeing DC ignore evidence about the harmful effects ?
As I stated above , the U.S. Dept .
of Ed ’ s portion begins on Page 39 .
There you ’ ll see $ 66.6 billion is being asked for .
But you ’ ll also see ESEA ( Elementary and Secondary Edcuation ) Block Grants for Disadvantaged Students ( $ 19.4 billion ) on Page 40 .
Don ’ t overlook HOW these grants will be designed .

Anti Fed Ed Warriors, it’s been a couple of days since the Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 Presidential Budget’s been released. Yes, you’ve probably seen many articles about the taxpayers savings, especially in the name of ‘education’.
No, I’m not behind in sharing news, I’ve been pouring over the 100+ pages of the Budget to bring you the truth. Not, what I think will garner votes or will make great headlines. We’ve suffered enough fools from the CCSS Machine.
We owe it to ourselves and other taxpayers to look deeper into this Budget.
Budget Defined:
Warriors, I want to draw your attention to two facts:
a) This isn’t the first time I’ve raked over Presidential Budgets.
b) Look at the definition of ‘budget’. Webster’s Dictionary tells us it’s the breakdown of a spending plan. “MyMoneyCoach” tells us that budgeting is balancing your expenses with your income.
Warriors, the USA is not balancing expenses/income! It’s not been successful in many years to this end. If you look at the government process of creating a budget, it smacks totally of CCSS Math.
Economic Mess:
Look at the National Debt Clock.
Warriors, as you know, if you’ve visited this website before, that the numbers are constantly changing. At present, the debt is growing, not shrinking. Be sure to visit the site for a real time glimpse. However, above, I’ve pointed out for you the imbalance between income and expenses.
This is seriously troubling.
If you’re not sure how the Presidential Budget works, it’s this. The President and advisors come up with figures for specific programs and pet projects. Within the pages, it’s pointed out that the President and advisors then go on to encourage each federal department to create a budget within the amounts specified. Congress has to approve ALL the budget plans. So rather than a strict Presidential Budget, it’s actually Presidential Budget REQUESTS.
I don’t know about you, my followers, but if this is the cycle, why is DC not acknowledging that until income/expenses are balanced, there should be zero budget requests? My friends, we, should be sounding the alarm that BAD government cannot and will not repair, or keep ‘great’, our nation. We have a civic duty to shut down BAD government and fix it, before opening government back up. Yet, we don’t. Why?
NOW, more than ever, we should fulfill that duty. Why? With the USMCA (US-Mexico-Canada Agreement) being signed into the implementation phase, EVERYTHING we know will change.
Most of all, education. It’s nothing BUT indentured servitude.
FY 2021 Presidential Budget Requests Press Release:
Warriors, much of the Press Release language (to accompany the Budget Requests) was all about the need for federal level research and development of AI (Artificial Intelligence) for non-defensive use.
Taxpayer funds to pull this off? $142.2 billion. This leads to “Industries of the Future” and will embed STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and, Math) into even more of our schools, at ALL age levels and our entire workforce.
A $50 million dollar amount is to go to the NSF (National Science Foundation) to targe community colleges, HBCUs (Historically Black College/Universities) and Minority Service Institutions (MSIs). NSF will receive another $230 million for QIS (Quantam Information Sciences); at least $25 million will be for a national Q internet.
Where else will the STEM ‘education’ pop up?
U.S. Dept. of Energy, $125 million for AI. Energy’s Science Office will receive $237 million for national labs, national education, and national jobs.
U.S. Dept. of Agriculture for STEM’s biotech gets $100 million.
U. S. Health and Human Services’ arm NIH (National Institutes of Health) for AI in chronic illnesses, $50 million.
Also in the press release, was the directive to insert AI into every single federal agency’s budget to report to Congress, including U.S. Dept of Education! This is called the “American AI Initiative”. This will also harmonize QIS across all federal agencies as well (ties back to the 2018 law, National Quantam Inititiative Act.) This Act embedded a school to work pipeline for STEM. This Act, as well as the FY 2021 Budget Requests increases the amounts of P3s (Public Private Partnerships) in America, for economic and job purposes.
FY 2021 Budget Requests for “Education”:
Warriors, here’s the Budget Requests document. The U.S. Dept. of Education’s portion can be found, beginning on Page 39.
However, well before Ed’s portion, you can find ‘education’ mentioned. For example, on Page 5 (under the section “Building a Better Tomorrow”), you’ll find closing the ‘skills gap’ by increasing vocational tech under CTE (Career Tech Education) and increasing apprenticeships. Cost? Nearly $1 billion dollars exclusively for CTE. Contrast that with Page 7 where fewer education and training opportunities for tech based global economy will suffer if we don’t step it up. Then, on Page 21, learn how by involving the ‘private sector’ into government will be an economic gain, but also tie to education ‘attainment’ levels. (*Note: The USMCA aligns education attainment to jobs available.)
What else ties to ‘education’ in this section for Better Tomorrow? SNAP benefits, Page 25; Page 26, WIC funds reach $5.5 billion. (Both are used in school systems).
Then, from Page 30, this about 5G:
Warriors, 5G is already proving to be found in education at ALL levels. Why are we seeing DC ignore evidence about the harmful effects?
As I stated above, the U.S. Dept. of Ed’s portion begins on Page 39. There you’ll see $66.6 billion is being asked for.
But you’ll also see ESEA (Elementary and Secondary Edcuation) Block Grants for Disadvantaged Students ($19.4 billion) on Page 40. Don’t overlook HOW these grants will be designed. The Every Student Succeeds Act’s (ESSA) recalculation of Title One is involved. If you remember, that went from per pupil need to ‘whole school’ for the ‘whole child’.
Also on Page 40, $2 billion in State Grants for CTE. Then, the ‘famous’ $5 billion in education scholarships (a rebrand of ESAs, Education Savings Accounts; or vouchers) for ‘educational freedom’. IDEA funds (Page 41) get $13 billion.
Also on Page 40,two very telling quotes. What do they tell us, Warriors, that neither one of these officials has read
the ESSA!
On Page 42, how accrediting bodies in education need to be reformed for ‘innovation’. Warriors, ‘innovation’ is an educratic term for massive data mining! Also to be ‘reformed’? FAFSA. Don’t miss the ‘evidence based evaluations’.
Look below and you’ll see the other educratic plans and page numbers.
Warriors, be sure to read the featured quote by Ivanka, pushing ‘skill based’ education.
Closing:
In Part Two, my fellow Warriors, we’ll look at the ‘skills’, ‘jobs’, ‘mental health’ and ‘global’ evidence in the Budget Request document. You can bet, education’s impacted in not so great ways.

Louisiana: “Trooper Of The Year” Arrested For Producing Child Porn & Distributing It To His Own Network
Baton Rouge, LA — In 2018, Louisiana State Police Trooper of 18 years, Jason Boyet received one of the department’s highest honors—Trooper of the Year. Fast forward two years, and this hero cop is sitting in a jail cell after being arrested on charges of production and distribution of child pornography.
After Trooper Boyet was arrested Wednesday, he was booked into the Tangipahoa Parish Jail then transferred into protective custody at another facility—likely due to his police officer status. He was then put on administrative leave, not fired.
According to WWL:
The FBI and LSP Special Victims Unit began an investigation after a suspect, later identified as Boyet, allegedly produced and shared pornographic images on an unnamed online application. Troopers say agents identified Boyet as the online user and arrested him after an interview.
“The investigation remains ongoing with the potential for additional charges,” the LSP spokesperson said.
This Trooper of the Year is alleged to have been running his own child porn network. Not only was he allegedly distributing the horrifying images and videos, he was producing them!
Even more disturbing is the fact that Boyet is reportedly married and has three children. It is unclear at the moment if the children in the porn he was producing were his own.
In a Facebook post from 2018, LSP Troop L issued the following praise about their star trooper of they year.
Senior Trooper Jason Boyet was recognized as the Louisiana State Police Troop L Trooper of the Year at the annual Slidell Elks Law and Order Night. When considering candidates, S/T Boyet’s supervisors highlighted his job performance, initiative, professionalism, and most of all leadership.
We wonder if they still feel this way about this alleged child predator.
Peppering the Louisiana State Police Facebook page are dozens of images of mugshots from people accused of petty theft, drug possession and other small crimes. Absent from their page, however, is Boyet’s mug shot and any mention that their Trooper of the Year was accused and arrested for allegedly producing and distributing child pornography. Seems legit.
Over the years, TFTP has reported on a lot of bad cops—thousands of them. And, over the years, apologists claim that these bad cops are the exception and somehow slipped through the filter into their jobs. While that statement may pacify some, it is simply not reality. In fact, TFTP has reported on dozens of officers who are the cream of the crop getting caught in the most disturbing crimes.
“Officers of the Year” are repeatedly caught raping, murdering, and preying on children thereby destroying this notion of slipping through the cracks.
A we previously reported, in an unprecedented sentence for a police officer, a former cop with the Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie police departments, was sentenced to life in prison after being convicted of child exploitation. Micheal Edwin Harding was named Officer of the Year in 2011, when he was an officer at the Fort Pierce Police Department.
Despite being accused of sexual assault back in 2007, Champaign Police Officer Jerad Gale was given his department’s highest honor in March. On March 30, Gale was named Champaign’s Officer of the Year.
Just three months later he would be arrested for strangling and raping two more women.
A former Houston Police Department ‘Officer of the Year’ award winner, Noe Juarez, was arrested and was indicted on federal charges of conspiracy to possess firearms connected with a drug trafficking offense and conspiracy to distribute five or more kilos of cocaine.
Jonathan Bleiweiss, 34, pleaded guilty to an array of charges, admitting to 14 counts of armed false imprisonment, 15 counts of battery and four counts of stalking. However, he avoided all of the charges with “sex” in them.
Most likely due to his police officer status, this former Broward Sheriff’s deputy was given an insultingly lenient plea deal. As part of that deal, Bleiweiss did not face charges of sexual battery, and as such will not be required by the state of Florida to register as a sex offender.
A group of approximately 20 undocumented immigrants alleged that Bleiweiss, harassed them, molested them during pat-downs, and threatened them with deportation if they refused to perform sex acts. Bleiweiss was named officer of the year just prior to being exposed as a sexual predator.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-02-14--Left & Right Bicker Over Roger Stone As A “True Hero” While Julian Assange Rots In Prison

If you turn on your television right now and switch to any of the mainstream media hot air networks , you will likely come across some Democrat blowhard berating President Donald Trump for standing against the sentence of Roger Stone .
You will also come across some Right Wing blowhard arguing for Roger Stone to be pardoned .
In the meantime , both parties are completely in line with extraditing Julian Assange — a journalist — to the United States to be prosecuted .
For those who may be out of the sh*t show loop that is the U.S. Government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ next week on his conviction for lying to congressional investigators about his efforts to procure damaging information about Hillary Clinton from WikiLeaks and pass them on to the Trump campaign .
He was also convicted of threatening a witness and urging him not to testify truthfully to lawmakers .
It was not the procurement of information from Julian Assange and WikiLeaks on which prosecutors went after Stone , it was because he was accused and later convicted of lying to investigators repeatedly and intimidating a witness .
These are crimes of which Assange @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Trump and the right-wing are outspoken about the alleged mistreatment of Stone while remaining entirely silent on and continue the persecution of Julian Assange .
At nearly 2:00 a.m. on Wednesday morning , Trump randomly posted a tweet criticizing career Justice Department prosecutors for recommending a nine-year prison sentence for his former advisor Roger Stone .
“ This is a horrible and very unfair situation .
The real crimes were on the other side , as nothing happens to them .
Can not allow this miscarriage of justice !
” the president @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unusual response from his own Attorney General Bill Barr , claiming that the president ’ s ranting on Twitter is making it “ impossible for me to do my job.
” This left vs. right tennis match continued to unfold on Thursday as Democrats then claimed Trump ’ s comments on Stone are worse than what he was impeached over .
Meanwhile , they are completely ignoring all the actual reasons on which Trump could ’ ve been impeached .
For example , invading countries on false pretenses , engineering coups to overthrow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sending weapons to the largest state sponsor of terror in the world , or massively increasing the surveillance state—all of which is provable .
As these fat cats in their taxpayer funded marble buildings continue to wage their dog and pony show propaganda against the American people , real heroes , whose actions have exposed actual criminals , shed light on the surveillance state , and given Americans a glimpse into the horrors of war , like Chelsea Manning , Julian Assange , and Edward Snowden , are rotting in prison or exiled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
A travesty , indeed .
As TFTP reported last April , several men in black suits , surrounded by a dozen cops , raided the Ecuadorian embassy in London and kidnapped Julian Assange .
Moments later , the Department of Justice released a statement charging Assange with computer hacking “ conspiracy ” for allegedly working with US Army soldier at the time , Chelsea Manning .
According to the DOJ , Assange ’ s roll in the alleged conspiracy with Manning was encouraging her to provide more information—something that any journalist worth @ @ @ @ @ @ @ move has amounted to little more than the blatant criminalization of journalism .
Not only did Trump refuse to step in and pardon one of the key players whose information leaks arguably led to him winning the presidency but he went on the offensive against him .
Shortly after being kidnapped from the Embassy at the behest of the Trump administration ’ s Department of Justice , a kangaroo court was set up to railroad the journalist .
Since then , Assange has been rotting in solitary confinement as his health drastically deteriorated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ course and alleviates his inhumane situation , Mr. Assange ’ s continued exposure to arbitrariness and abuse may soon end up costing his life , ” the UN special rapporteur on torture and other cruel , inhuman or degrading treatment , Nils Melzer , said in a statement in October .
That was more than 4 months ago and nothing has changed .
Dozens of other doctors have issued a warning that if Assange ’ s conditions do not drastically improve and proper medical care given , this hero for freedom could die @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if true lovers of freedom win this battle of information , Julian Assange will go down in history as one the most important figures in exposing tyrants and aiding in the fight for liberty and justice .
Yet the left and the right are showing their true colors by continuously calling for his blood .
Assange now faces extradition to the United States where he will be further prosecuted for “ conspiracy ” for doing nothing other than exposing war crimes of the West .
Julian Assange is a hero .
His actions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the US government , including mowing down innocent journalists with a .50 cal .
His persecution by the UK and the US is undoubtedly retaliation and punishment for exposing these crimes .
The idea that a journalist is being held in solitary confinement on a whim from this administration , and also faces the possibility of being “ disappeared ” in a US black site prison after his extradition , is utter insanity .
How much longer can we go down a road in which murder is celebrated and truth is prosecuted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a hellfire of smoke and ash ?
My guess is , not so long… .

If you turn on your television right now and switch to any of the mainstream media hot air networks, you will likely come across some Democrat blowhard berating President Donald Trump for standing against the sentence of Roger Stone. You will also come across some Right Wing blowhard arguing for Roger Stone to be pardoned. In the meantime, both parties are completely in line with extraditing Julian Assange — a journalist — to the United States to be prosecuted.
For those who may be out of the sh*t show loop that is the U.S. Government, Stone is slated to be sentenced next week on his conviction for lying to congressional investigators about his efforts to procure damaging information about Hillary Clinton from WikiLeaks and pass them on to the Trump campaign. He was also convicted of threatening a witness and urging him not to testify truthfully to lawmakers.
It was not the procurement of information from Julian Assange and WikiLeaks on which prosecutors went after Stone, it was because he was accused and later convicted of lying to investigators repeatedly and intimidating a witness. These are crimes of which Assange has never even been accused.
Nevertheless, Trump and the right-wing are outspoken about the alleged mistreatment of Stone while remaining entirely silent on and continue the persecution of Julian Assange.
At nearly 2:00 a.m. on Wednesday morning, Trump randomly posted a tweet criticizing career Justice Department prosecutors for recommending a nine-year prison sentence for his former advisor Roger Stone. “This is a horrible and very unfair situation.

Trump’s tweets prompted an unusual response from his own Attorney General Bill Barr, claiming that the president’s ranting on Twitter is making it “impossible for me to do my job.”
This left vs. right tennis match continued to unfold on Thursday as Democrats then claimed Trump’s comments on Stone are worse than what he was impeached over. Meanwhile, they are completely ignoring all the actual reasons on which Trump could’ve been impeached. For example, invading countries on false pretenses, engineering coups to overthrow democratically elected governments in foreign countries, sending weapons to the largest state sponsor of terror in the world, or massively increasing the surveillance state—all of which is provable.
As these fat cats in their taxpayer funded marble buildings continue to wage their dog and pony show propaganda against the American people, real heroes, whose actions have exposed actual criminals, shed light on the surveillance state, and given Americans a glimpse into the horrors of war, like Chelsea Manning, Julian Assange, and Edward Snowden, are rotting in prison or exiled while pardons are doled out to murderers. A travesty, indeed.

According to the DOJ, Assange’s roll in the alleged conspiracy with Manning was encouraging her to provide more information—something that any journalist worth their salt would be doing. This move has amounted to little more than the blatant criminalization of journalism.
The DOJ says part of what Assange did to justify his prosecution – beyond allegedly helping Manning get the documents – is he encouraged Manning to get more docs for him to publish. Journalists do this with sources constantly: it's the criminalization of journalism pic.twitter.com/GXNjWlkFZw — Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) April 11, 2019

Is there anything we can ’ t do ?
When a butterfly flaps its wings in Michigan , Somalia floods .
When a butterfly flaps its wings in Manhattan , Somalia undergoes a civil war between quarreling Islamists .
And when a butterfly flaps its wings in Malibu , then Rep. Omar gets elected to the House .
“ When you see a Somali refugee or an Iraqi refugee or a Libyan refugee , we often are like ‘ this is my neighbor , they must have survived some struggle , ’ we don ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ policy made them come over here ?
’ ” she said at a Democracy Now !
and Rising Majority event in Washington , D.C. , receiving loud applause .
Whenever anyone comes to America , it ’ s because we did them wrong .
That ’ s why they come here .
“ When you see flooding happening in a country abroad and you are urgently raising money for these lives to be saved , you don ’ t think about , ‘ How have I contributed to the climate warming that has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that are taking place abroad ?
’ ” Omar said .
How have Omar ’ s own endless plane trips contributed to these catastrophes ?
Every time she flies to campaign for Bernie Sanders , another country floods .

America is awesome. Is there anything we can’t do? When a butterfly flaps its wings in Michigan, Somalia floods.
When a butterfly flaps its wings in Manhattan, Somalia undergoes a civil war between quarreling Islamists.
And when a butterfly flaps its wings in Malibu, then Rep. Omar gets elected to the House.
“When you see a Somali refugee or an Iraqi refugee or a Libyan refugee, we often are like ‘this is my neighbor, they must have survived some struggle,’ we don’t ever pause to think ‘what American policy made them come over here?’” she said at a Democracy Now! and Rising Majority event in Washington, D.C., receiving loud applause.
Whenever anyone comes to America, it’s because we did them wrong.
That’s why they come here.
Like Rep. Omar, for revenge.
“When you see flooding happening in a country abroad and you are urgently raising money for these lives to be saved, you don’t think about, ‘How have I contributed to the climate warming that has led to these floodings and these catastrophes that are taking place abroad?’” Omar said.
How have Omar’s own endless plane trips contributed to these catastrophes?
Every time she flies to campaign for Bernie Sanders, another country floods.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-02-14--Pro-Crime Policies Don’t Appeal to Black Voters

In the Black Lives Matter era , everyone assumes that pro-crime policies are the way to win over black voters .
Candidates tout criminal justice reform schemes like freeing criminals and legalizing drugs .
1994 ’ s Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act , a piece of bipartisan legislation that helped roll back crime rates in the 90s by locking up criminals , is denounced for causing “ mass incarceration ” .
But Joe Biden , who wrote the bill , is a player in the 2020 primaries because of his black supporters .
In the latest Quinnipiac poll @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with everyone except black voters .
Only 14 % of white Democrats support him , but 27 % of black Democrats are still standing by their racist man .
A quarter of black voters may not sound like a lot , but it ’ s more than any other candidate in the race .
Behind Biden is Bloomberg with 22 % .
Despite running on pro-crime policies so extreme that he had proposed freeing half the national prison population , ending enforcement of vagrancy and drug laws , and allowing the Boston Marathon @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is only in third place .
The opposition dumps on Michael Bloomberg have already begun with clips that show the former New York City boss discussing ‘ Stop and Frisk ’ gang member crackdowns , and policing in the Big Apple .
“ Ninety-five percent of murders- murderers and murder victims fit one M.O .
You can just take a description , Xerox it , and pass it out to all the cops , ” Bloomberg is heard saying .
“ They are male , minorities , 16-25 .
That ’ s true @ @ @ @ @ @ @ true in virtually every city .
And that ’ s where the real crime is .
You ’ ve got to get the guns out of the hands of people that are getting killed.
” “ People say , ‘ Oh my God , you are arresting kids for marijuana that are all minorities.
’ Yes , that ’ s true .
Why ?
Because we put all the cops in minority neighborhoods .
Yes , that ’ s true .
Why do we do it ?
Because that ’ s where all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on to say .
Democrats and Republicans assume that clips like this will kill Bloomberg ’ s black support .
Except this same exact play was run against Hillary Clinton who had referred to “ superpredators ” when discussing the threat from career underage criminals .
Bernie Sanders had accused Hillary of racism for using the term .
And Hillary Clinton still stomped him by routinely taking 80 % to 90 % of the black vote .
Hillary ’ s worst performance and Sanders ’ best performance among black voters happened in Missouri @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the black vote and he got 32 % .
So much for the ‘ superpredator ’ strategy .
Going after Biden ’ s ‘ tough on crime ’ record failed just as miserably .
It failed even when black candidates like Booker and Harris did it .
Warren , who wants to repeal the 1994 crime bill , is polling at 8 % among black voters .
After four years of pro-crime pandering , Sanders is lagging ‘ Stop and Frisk ’ Bloomberg .
Maybe it ’ s time to stop assuming that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Black Lives Matter agenda .
If black voters really wanted to dismantle the criminal justice system , they could just vote libertarian .
They certainly would be more likely to vote for Sanders or Warren , than Biden and Bloomberg .
Crime disproportionately affects black communities .
And black community leaders used to lead the campaign against it .
The idea that ‘ tough on crime ’ was a racist white conspiracy is revisionist history .
Why did attacking Hillary and then Biden on the 1994 crime bill fail to sway black voters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ members voted for it .
In fact , they helped save it from the conservative Democrats who had tried to scuttle it over its social justice funding for criminals .
Rep. Charles Rangel , who helped the bill pass , had been rallying for action since the 70s .
At a CBC meeting with President Nixon , it was Rangel who urged the Republican to take a stand .
“ Public enemy number one in the United States is drug abuse .
In order to fight and defeat this enemy , it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ offensive , ” Rangel told him .
Even not all that long ago , Republicans appealed to black voters by getting tough on crime .
After a successful crackdown on crime , Giuliani shot up from 5 % to 19 % among black voters .
The Rockefeller drug laws , a popular target of perpetually outraged white liberals in New York , were strongly backed by black leaders at the time .
That was back when 71 % of black voters supported life without parole for drug dealers .
Things have changed .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Most polls still show that more black people believe that crime is a more serious issue than the criminal justice system .
There is a younger upscale segment of the black community that is pro-crime and anti-police .
This is where Black Lives Matter , Bernie Sanders , and criminal justice reform gets much of its support .
Think of this as the Colin Kaepernick demographic .
But most black voters are older and more conservative .
The assumption that black voters must support criminals is as stupid and racist as the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ support illegal migration .
Black communities are on the front lines of crime in much the same way that Latinos are on the front lines of illegal migration .
Black officers form the thin blue line in some of the most dangerous cities in America , as Latinos do serving on the Border Patrol .
Black voters have a range of nuanced positions on crime .
But Democrats and Republicans have both accepted that what black people really want are candidates who put criminals first and victims last .
That ’ s not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ white lefties in the media speaking for the black community .
White lefties and libertarians keep promising the black vote that isn ’ t theirs to give to candidates who will turn over the country to criminals .
Meanwhile , the black vote keeps going somewhere else entirely .
Political myths spawned from the pro-crime echo chamber are everywhere in the 2020 race .
Black voters , we are repeatedly told , won ’ t support Buttigieg because he was tough on crime .
If you can picture Buttigieg being tough on anything @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those same black voters rallied behind Bloomberg who had inherited Giuliani ’ s approach to crime , but utterly refused to back Buttigieg .
Black voters , we are told , wouldn ’ t support Kamala Harris because she was a ‘ cop ’ .
Except that she won 79 % of black voters when she ran for the Senate after serving as Attorney General of California .
Black voters didn ’ t run away from her because she used to be a prosecutor , but because she was inauthentic .
Her campaign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” had been coined to play off her time as AG .
But instead , her ACLU sister talked her into running a fluffy campaign modeled on Obama ’ s feigned hipness .
Black voters these days do want fewer people in prison , but their first priority is ending the killing sprees in Baltimore , Chicago , and in cities across the country .
If Republicans want to appeal to black voters , the right model doesn ’ t lie in pro-crime ‘ criminal justice reform ’ , which hasn ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1972 , Nixon won 18 % of the black vote , a record , by appealing to black voters with a mix of economic progress and getting tough on crime .
His campaign blitzed black publications with ads that spoke to black aspirations .
That ’ s a path that President Trump can successfully follow to boost support in 2020 .
Economic growth and federal intervention to stop the killing in Baltimore and Chicago would do it .
What Republicans should not do is address black people as if they are criminals who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more criminals in their communities .
Nixon won a record number of black votes by not buying into the media ’ s idea of what black people wanted , but by offering many what they did want .
Lefties still haven ’ t learned to stop trying to win over black voters with pro-crime policies .
It didn ’ t work for Sanders in 2016 .
It didn ’ t work for Sanders , Warren , Booker , or Harris in 2020 .
Democrats are unable to deviate from the herd mindset and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ follies .
They can ’ t learn from history .
Republicans can and should .

Economic empowerment. Safer communities. And a way forward.

Executive Order Initiates ‘Department Of Defense Global Campaign Plan For Pandemic Influenza And Infectious Diseases 3551-13’

It appears that the U.S. military is taking this coronavirus outbreak extremely seriously .
An executive order has been issued which has initiated the implementation of “ the Department of Defense Global Campaign plan for Pandemic Influenza and Infectious Diseases 3551-13 ” .
We don ’ t know all of the details of the plan , but we do know that it instructs U.S. military officials “ to prepare for widespread outbreaks ” .
Many in the mainstream media continue to try to convince us that this virus is not much more dangerous than the common flu , but if @ @ @ @ @ @ @ military taking such a dramatic step ?
The following comes from a Military Times article… An executive order issued by the Joint Staff and approved by Defense Secretary Mark Esper this month directed Northern Command and geographic combatant commanders to initiate pandemic plans , which include ordering commanders to prepare for widespread outbreaks and confining service members with a history of travel to China .
The Navy and Marine Corps messages , issued Tuesday and Wednesday , respectively , reference an executive order directing U.S. Northern Command to implement the Department of Defense @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Infectious Diseases 3551-13 .
For now , we are not being told the specific details of this plan , and when Northern Command was asked about it they issued a very vague statement… Thankfully , the virus is not spreading widely inside the United States so far .
But that could change at any time , and on Wednesday a 14th U.S. case was confirmed… A second person evacuated from Wuhan , China , to a U.S. Marine base near San Diego has been diagnosed with the new coronavirus , raising the tally @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to 14 , the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC ) reported on Wednesday .
The patient was among 232 individuals who had been placed under quarantine at the Marine Corps Air Station Miramar after being airlifted from the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan earlier this month , CDC spokeswoman Ana Toro said .
But 14 confirmed cases is just a tiny drop in the bucket compared to more than 59,000 confirmed cases in China .
We should be thankful for the low number of cases in this country @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that “ we are likely to see community spread in the U.S. ” at some point… And if we do start seeing tens of thousands of confirmed cases here , the level of fear is going to rise dramatically and a lot of people are going to go completely nuts .

For example , a couple of “ pranksters ” in New York thought it would be really funny to spill a bucket of “ coronavirus ” in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would do something like that ?
Yes , they probably thought that it was quite funny , but the truth is that this sort of a stunt could have taken a very tragic turn .
Over in China , we are witnessing things that are even more frightening .
For example , one woman that has apparently caught the virus decided to walk down the street in the middle of the day and touch every car door handle she came across .
In other words , it appears that she was purposely trying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ When things get really nuts , most people will behave at least somewhat rationally , but there will always be others that will completely snap .
And without a doubt , there are always crazy people that are trying to bring unusual things into this country .
For instance , just check out this recent example from Zero Hedge… That ’ s exactly what happened two weeks ago : U.S. Customs and Border Patrol , in the midst of the coronavirus outbreak , seized a bag of dead birds that was being carried @ @ @ @ @ @ @ traveling from China to Washington D.C. on January 27 .
The birds were packaged in a bag that had cartoon images on it and was seized at Dulles Airport from a passenger , who was arriving from Beijing , according to the NY Post .
The passenger claimed that the birds were “ cat food ” and that he was planning to bring them to Maryland after his flight .
Our world is getting crazier with each passing day , and it is inevitable that we will see a lot more weird stuff @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are in a battle with a virus that is perfect for spreading fear .
It is invisible to the naked eye , it can survive on surfaces for up to 9 days , it has an incubation period of up to 24 days , and it spreads from person to person frighteningly easily .
To a certain extent , there is comfort in being able to see your enemy .
But we can not detect this virus with our five senses .
It could be on the next grocery cart you push , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the next hand that you shake .
That sort of uncertainty is going to drive a lot of people crazy if this virus starts spreading widely inside the United States , and so let us hope that such a scenario does not become a reality .

It appears that the U.S. military is taking this coronavirus outbreak extremely seriously. An executive order has been issued which has initiated the implementation of “the Department of Defense Global Campaign plan for Pandemic Influenza and Infectious Diseases 3551-13”. We don’t know all of the details of the plan, but we do know that it instructs U.S. military officials “to prepare for widespread outbreaks”. Many in the mainstream media continue to try to convince us that this virus is not much more dangerous than the common flu, but if that is true then why is our military taking such a dramatic step? The following comes from a Military Times article…
An executive order issued by the Joint Staff and approved by Defense Secretary Mark Esper this month directed Northern Command and geographic combatant commanders to initiate pandemic plans, which include ordering commanders to prepare for widespread outbreaks and confining service members with a history of travel to China. The Navy and Marine Corps messages, issued Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively, reference an executive order directing U.S. Northern Command to implement the Department of Defense Global Campaign plan for Pandemic Influenza and Infectious Diseases 3551-13.
For now, we are not being told the specific details of this plan, and when Northern Command was asked about it they issued a very vague statement…
“We coordinate with other combatant commands to assess potential impacts in the event of a pandemic and we ensure the U.S. military is poised to respond as required,” said Northern Command in a statement emailed to Military Times. “The military profession fosters a culture of planning, and the fact that we are coordinating planning efforts across the geographical combatant commands is consistent with how we prepare to respond, if directed.”
Thankfully, the virus is not spreading widely inside the United States so far.
But that could change at any time, and on Wednesday a 14th U.S. case was confirmed…
A second person evacuated from Wuhan, China, to a U.S. Marine base near San Diego has been diagnosed with the new coronavirus, raising the tally of confirmed cases in the United States to 14, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported on Wednesday.

We should be thankful for the low number of cases in this country, but Dr. Nancy Messonnier is warning that “we are likely to see community spread in the U.S.” at some point…
Top health officials prepped Americans for the prospect of novel coronavirus spreading in communities in the United States during a Wednesday news conference. “At some point, we are likely to see community spread in the U.S.,” said Dr. Nancy Messonnier, director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases.
And if we do start seeing tens of thousands of confirmed cases here, the level of fear is going to rise dramatically and a lot of people are going to go completely nuts.
In fact, we are already starting to see some really strange things.
For example, a couple of “pranksters” in New York thought it would be really funny to spill a bucket of “coronavirus” in the middle of a crowded subway car…
David Flores and Morris Cordewell donned hazmats suits for the stunt while holding a container filled with liquid that had biological hazard markings on it. In the video, Cordewell gets up and spills the liquid over the floor as train passengers quickly jump out of harm’s way. However, it turns out their bucket contained Kool-Aid juice.
Who would do something like that?
Yes, they probably thought that it was quite funny, but the truth is that this sort of a stunt could have taken a very tragic turn.
Over in China, we are witnessing things that are even more frightening.
For example, one woman that has apparently caught the virus decided to walk down the street in the middle of the day and touch every car door handle she came across.
2/11 #Coronavirustruth #coronavirus
ROL regulates human behavior with law; religion does the same with morality. Both can help society in order. There is none in China. Video showed a suspicious infected woman touched every door handle of the cars parking on the street. Scary! pic.twitter.com/hazMzHlk2P — 西行小宝 (@htommy998) February 11, 2020
In other words, it appears that she was purposely trying to spread the virus to others.
When things get really nuts, most people will behave at least somewhat rationally, but there will always be others that will completely snap.
And without a doubt, there are always crazy people that are trying to bring unusual things into this country. For instance, just check out this recent example from Zero Hedge…
That’s exactly what happened two weeks ago: U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, in the midst of the coronavirus outbreak, seized a bag of dead birds that was being carried in the luggage of an airline passenger traveling from China to Washington D.C. on January 27. The birds were packaged in a bag that had cartoon images on it and was seized at Dulles Airport from a passenger, who was arriving from Beijing, according to the NY Post. The passenger claimed that the birds were “cat food” and that he was planning to bring them to Maryland after his flight.
Our world is getting crazier with each passing day, and it is inevitable that we will see a lot more weird stuff happen in the months ahead.
We are in a battle with a virus that is perfect for spreading fear. It is invisible to the naked eye, it can survive on surfaces for up to 9 days, it has an incubation period of up to 24 days, and it spreads from person to person frighteningly easily.
To a certain extent, there is comfort in being able to see your enemy.
But we cannot detect this virus with our five senses. It could be on the next grocery cart you push, the next door handle you twist or the next hand that you shake.
That sort of uncertainty is going to drive a lot of people crazy if this virus starts spreading widely inside the United States, and so let us hope that such a scenario does not become a reality.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-02-14--World Economy Projected To Shrink For First Time Since 2009 As Coronavirus Plays Havoc With Global S

World Economy Projected To Shrink For First Time Since 2009 As Coronavirus Plays Havoc With Global Supply Chains For more than a decade , the global economy has steadily grown quarter after quarter , but it looks like that streak is about to come to a very abrupt ending .
The coronavirus outbreak in China has brought the Chinese economy to a virtual standstill , and as a result , critical supply chains are in a state of chaos all over the world .
And since it doesn ’ t look like the Chinese economy will be able to return @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time , it appears that a worldwide economic slowdown is imminent .
I warned about this the other day , but now we have even a clearer picture of what is happening .
According to Capital Economics in London , this coronavirus outbreak will cause the global economy to shrink this quarter , and that will be the very first time this has happened since 2009… The economic casualties from China ’ s coronavirus epidemic are mounting as Asian and European auto plants run short of parts , free-spending Chinese tourists stay home @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
That ’ s just the start of a financial hangover that is expected to linger for months even if the flulike illness is soon brought under control , economists and supply chain experts say .
The Chinese epidemic ’ s aftereffects will likely cause the global economy to shrink this quarter for the first time since the depths of the 2009 financial crisis , according to Capital Economics in London .
And if the global economy shrinks for two quarters in a row , that will officially meet the definition of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we are on the verge of the worst economic downturn in more than a decade , and even if this outbreak miraculously ended tomorrow it would still take quite an extended period of time for global supply chains to return to normal .
In particular , the auto industry has been hit extremely hard… The ripple effects of China ’ s shutdown are spreading , with the auto industry especially hard hit .
Nissan temporarily closed one of its factories in Japan after running short of Chinese components , one week after Hyundai @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Fiat Chrysler warned that it may shutter one of its European plants .
Some U.S. manufacturers could face parts shortages in one to two weeks .
“ I worry that it ’ s going to be a bigger deal than most economists are treating it as right now , ” said Mohamed El-Erian , chief economic adviser at Allianz , the German financial services company .
“ It will take time to restart all these economic engines.
” Of course the global economy was already slowing down before this coronavirus outbreak started , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our problems .
One big red flag is the fact that Caterpillar ’ s sales are suddenly dropping .
After “ 33 consecutive months of increases ” , Caterpillar ’ s sales have now fallen for two months in a row .
In fact , January ’ s enormous 7 percent decline caught many analysts completely off guard… If Caterpillar is still the global industrial bellwether and leading manufacturing sector indicator it has been for the past century ( and absent the Fed somehow printing buildings or excavating mines , it is ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enter the worst manufacturing downturn since the financial crisis .
According to CAT ’ s latest retail sales data , in January the company posted a 7 % drop in machine sales , the biggest drop since Jan 2017 , and only the second consecutive negative print since December ’ s -5 % drop following 33 consecutive months of increases .
Across the Atlantic , major supply chain headaches have contributed to stunning factory output declines throughout the eurozone .
Just check out these numbers… Those numbers absolutely scream “ recession ” , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get any better until this coronavirus outbreak is over .
So all eyes will continue to be on China , and right now activity in major Chinese cities is way , way below normal .
The following comes from Zero Hedge… If the number of cases continues to rise at an exponential rate , there won ’ t be a “ return to normal ” any time in the foreseeable future .
So barring some sort of a miracle , we should all settle in for a very long global economic downturn .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the global economy is booming at the moment .
Thanks to fears about the coronavirus , demand for private jets has absolutely skyrocketed… The elite are going to do all that they can to insulate themselves from this virus , and considering how easily it spreads , it is hard to blame them .
As I discussed earlier this week , a prominent medical expert in Hong Kong is warning that 60 to 80 percent of the total world population could ultimately end up catching this virus .
And if that were to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the other problems that we are currently facing .
I am still hoping that such a scenario is not going to happen .
I am still hoping that global authorities can get this horrible virus under control soon , but with each passing day it is becoming more difficult to be optimistic about this outbreak .

For more than a decade, the global economy has steadily grown quarter after quarter, but it looks like that streak is about to come to a very abrupt ending. The coronavirus outbreak in China has brought the Chinese economy to a virtual standstill, and as a result, critical supply chains are in a state of chaos all over the world. And since it doesn’t look like the Chinese economy will be able to return to normal for an extended period of time, it appears that a worldwide economic slowdown is imminent. I warned about this the other day, but now we have even a clearer picture of what is happening. According to Capital Economics in London, this coronavirus outbreak will cause the global economy to shrink this quarter, and that will be the very first time this has happened since 2009…
The economic casualties from China’s coronavirus epidemic are mounting as Asian and European auto plants run short of parts, free-spending Chinese tourists stay home and American companies brace for unpredictable turbulence. That’s just the start of a financial hangover that is expected to linger for months even if the flulike illness is soon brought under control, economists and supply chain experts say. The Chinese epidemic’s aftereffects will likely cause the global economy to shrink this quarter for the first time since the depths of the 2009 financial crisis, according to Capital Economics in London.
And if the global economy shrinks for two quarters in a row, that will officially meet the definition of a “global recession”.
So here we are on the verge of the worst economic downturn in more than a decade, and even if this outbreak miraculously ended tomorrow it would still take quite an extended period of time for global supply chains to return to normal.
In particular, the auto industry has been hit extremely hard…
The ripple effects of China’s shutdown are spreading, with the auto industry especially hard hit. Nissan temporarily closed one of its factories in Japan after running short of Chinese components, one week after Hyundai in South Korea did the same. Fiat Chrysler warned that it may shutter one of its European plants. Some U.S. manufacturers could face parts shortages in one to two weeks. “I worry that it’s going to be a bigger deal than most economists are treating it as right now,” said Mohamed El-Erian, chief economic adviser at Allianz, the German financial services company. “It will take time to restart all these economic engines.”
Of course the global economy was already slowing down before this coronavirus outbreak started, but this has definitely helped to accelerate our problems.
One big red flag is the fact that Caterpillar’s sales are suddenly dropping. After “33 consecutive months of increases”, Caterpillar’s sales have now fallen for two months in a row. In fact, January’s enormous 7 percent decline caught many analysts completely off guard…
If Caterpillar is still the global industrial bellwether and leading manufacturing sector indicator it has been for the past century (and absent the Fed somehow printing buildings or excavating mines, it is), then the world is about to enter the worst manufacturing downturn since the financial crisis. According to CAT’s latest retail sales data, in January the company posted a 7% drop in machine sales, the biggest drop since Jan 2017, and only the second consecutive negative print since December’s -5% drop following 33 consecutive months of increases.
Across the Atlantic, major supply chain headaches have contributed to stunning factory output declines throughout the eurozone.
Just check out these numbers…
Factory output fell by 4.1 percent in the final month of the year compared with the same month a year earlier, according to figures published by Eurostat on Wednesday. Germany was among the states which suffered the most, as production dropped by 7.2 percent. Italy was close behind on a 4.3 percent decrease while France was down 3.2 percent.
Those numbers absolutely scream “recession”, and they aren’t likely to get any better until this coronavirus outbreak is over.
So all eyes will continue to be on China, and right now activity in major Chinese cities is way, way below normal. The following comes from Zero Hedge…
Specifically, Morgan Stanley suggested that real time measurements of Chinese pollution levels would provide a “quick and dirty” (no pun intended) way of observing if any of China’s major metropolises had returned back to normal. What it found was that among some of the top Chinese cities including Guangzhou, Shanghai and Chengdu, a clear pattern was evident – air pollution was only 20-50% of the historical average. As Morgan Stanley concluded, “This could imply that human activities such as traffic and industrial production within/close to those cities are running 50-80% below their potential capacity.”
If the number of cases continues to rise at an exponential rate, there won’t be a “return to normal” any time in the foreseeable future.
So barring some sort of a miracle, we should all settle in for a very long global economic downturn.
But at least one small segment of the global economy is booming at the moment. Thanks to fears about the coronavirus, demand for private jets has absolutely skyrocketed…
Wealthy travelers and major corporate clients are rejecting commercial airline travel and looking to private jets as a way to isolate themselves from the deadly coronavirus outbreak. The uptick in interest comes as more airlines cut scheduled flights to and from mainland China and Hong Kong in the wake of the spread of the disease that originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan.
The elite are going to do all that they can to insulate themselves from this virus, and considering how easily it spreads, it is hard to blame them.
As I discussed earlier this week, a prominent medical expert in Hong Kong is warning that 60 to 80 percent of the total world population could ultimately end up catching this virus. And if that were to happen, it would greatly escalate all of the other problems that we are currently facing.
I am still hoping that such a scenario is not going to happen.
I am still hoping that global authorities can get this horrible virus under control soon, but with each passing day it is becoming more difficult to be optimistic about this outbreak.

Protesters wreck College Republicans’ info table, spit on US flag, at UC Santa Cruz, video shows
By: Fox News, February 15, 2020:
IN THE LATEST ACT OF VIOLENCE AGAINST CONSERVATIVES, PROTESTERS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT SANTA CRUZ RECENTLY SMASHED A COLLEGE REPUBLICANS INFORMATION TABLE, ACCORDING TO REPORTS.
A video posted on social media shows two protesters tearing up placards and ripping down signage – with one of them appearing to spit on a 13-star “Betsy Ross” American flag that is seen lying on the ground.
“I think this guy’s trying to assault me,” one protester says, laughing, as someone tries to grab an American flag away from him. The man attempting to take back the flag later falls to the ground during the struggle.
“Get a life!” those fighting off the protesters say at one point.
The video starts when the incident is already underway, so it’s not clear exactly how it began. But Dylan Temple, president of the College Republicans chapter at UC Santa Cruz, told The Post Millennial it began when one of the protesters grabbed one of the group’s flags.
Temple said he immediately reported the matter to campus police. Subsequent posts on social media gave a name for one of the protesters, but it was unclear if that person was charged with any crimes.
The Santa Cruz incident appeared to extend a recent wave of violence against Republicans and supporters of President Trump.
