A lot of people have been predicting that something like this would happen, but I have been holding out hope that they were wrong. I was hoping that fascism would never come to America. We know that this president is capable of, he has already shown us who he is. (Remember what happened on June 1st? ), but we were hoping that there were those around him who would try to temper his fascist urges. Man were we wrong. The events in Portland, Oregon over the past few days should terrify every red blooded American. Imagine unidentified federal agents snatching up peaceful protesters from the streets of an American city and throwing them into unmarked cars. It doesn't get any more dystopian that that. And yet that is exactly what has been happening in the Northwestern city.
Mr. trump, who is way down in the most recent polls, has become more desperate with each passing day. His back is against the wall and there is no telling what he will do at this point to hold on to power. He has already said that he isn't sure if he will go peacefully into the orange night. Things could get ugly here in America.
Just today Mr. trump threatened to send his federal officers into other American cities. (At least I think they are officers. Frankly, I don't know what they are.)He named Oakland, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Baltimore as examples. Even though, for the most part, protests in these cities have been either non-existent or peaceful of late. But let's not kid ourselves, we know that this is all about. Just look at the racial makeup of these cities. I am proud to day that our leaders here in Philadelphia are not buying into Mr. trump's shenanigans.
"Both Mayor Jim Kenney and District Attorney Larry Krasner criticized Donald Trump after the President said he may send federal law enforcement to Philadelphia and other cities run by Democratic leaders in order to deal with continued unrest and protests over police brutality.
District Attorney Larry Krasner ..... released a statement in response to Trump’s comments.
“My dad volunteered and served in World War II to fight fascism, like most of my uncles, so we would not have an American president brutalizing and kidnapping Americans for exercising their constitutional rights and trying to make America a better place, which is what patriots do,” Krasner wrote.
“Anyone, including federal law enforcement, who unlawfully assaults and kidnaps people will face criminal charges from my office. At trial, they will face a Philadelphia jury. It’s the least we can do to honor those who fought fascism, including those who are fighting it even now.”''
The irony of all this is that some of these Second Amendment right-wingnuts who are so strongly into states rights, and who despise the federal government infringing on their rights, have been silent about Mr. trump's latest use of federal troops. Can you say Ruby Ridge boys and girls? Which just goes to show you that their movement is not about protecting the Constitution, it's about, at least in this case, protecting Donald trump.

Homeland Security sending 150 agents to Chicago this week: report
Someone needs to get answers out of Homeland Security, ASAP.
What the fuck are these agents doing, exactly? Are they just harassing protesters, or do they have some sort of legitimate criminal investigation going on? What happened to the people they grabbed and chucked into their vans? Why haven’t they coordinated with the local authorities in the cities where they are operating? Is this all just some dumb, pointless Trumpian chest-beating chimp display for the amusement of the MAGA trash?
Also from the Hill, there’s another interesting story:
St. Louis couple that pointed guns at protesters charged with felonies
I guess the cops didn’t buy their story about them fending off BLM rioters imminently about to invade their home.
Who else thinks that when the media dig into this couple’s private lives, they will turn out to be hardcore MAGA trash?
Ah, I guess someone’s already done it. And — what a huge surprise! — the McCloskeys are Trumpkins.
Democrat city governments have conspired with the BLM/Antifa shock troops of the Left to wage a campaign of terror ahead of the 2020 elections.
After showing restraint for nearly two months, Trump exercises his rightful authority to send federal forces to protect federal property.
Democrats then scream "fascist!" and blame Trump for the violence their goons have unleashed on America.
What sucks for you is that over 70% of Americans agree with Trump's action and this spells doom for the Democrat election strategy.
“What sucks for you is that over 70% of Americans agree with Trump's action and this spells doom for the Democrat election strategy.”
In your dreams. Most Americans have bigger things to worry about than protests.
Such as the virus Trump is allowing to kill them in vast numbers, and the concurrent economic devastation it is causing.
Trump’s re-election chances crashed and burned months ago. None of his cheap stunts are going to save him now.
The same people cheering on the feds are the same people yelling about the constitution and freaked out about Jade Helm. This country is so screwed.
"Trump exercises his rightful authority to send federal forces to protect federal property."
What federal property? They are grabbing people without identifying themselves and with no probable cause. I have a right to peacefully protest, all Americans do even BLM and Antifa.
"Democrat city governments have conspired with the BLM/Antifa shock troops of the Left to wage a campaign of terror ahead of the 2020 elections."
I would love to see the evidence of this.

Gee, maybe every big city police department standing by and letting leftist mobs destroy property and assault citizens might count as evidence. Ya think?

That's what the people arrested were charged with? You have evidence of this?
"Gee, maybe every big city police department standing by and letting leftist mobs destroy property and assault citizens might count as evidence. Ya think?"
What is the evidence city governments are responsible for any stand-down orders? Have you actually personally witnessed this? In what cities? Also, use a screen name so I know with whom I'm communicating. Sounds a bit hyperbolic.
O.T. I haven't heard much about Obamagate. Wasn't that the biggest crime in U.S. political history? trump doesn't mention it much for it to be such a big deal. Also, haven't heard much about Hunter Biden either. Guess those were nothing burgers as I suspected.
"What the fuck is wrong with your brain?"
Nothing. I took the Montreal test and I'm a stable genius. I correctly identified the elephant. LOL
“Nonsense. Rioting, looting, arson, and assault are all probable causes.”
Unlikely. Looting is a state, not a federal crime. So are arson and assault, unless a government building got burned or a government official got assaulted. Rioting in general is not within the jurisdiction of the federal police. And don’t tell me it’s “domestic terrorism” — the federal government doesn’t have a domestic terrorism law, because if there were, Republicans in Congress know it would most likely be some of their “alt-right” chums getting busted for it.
If any of the people the Feds have snatched are actually being charged with any kind of federal crime, it would sure be nice to know that. As of now, they don’t seem to be giving an explanation for anything they’ve done, including to the local police whose jurisdictions they are operating in.

Are you kidding?
For three days, police in Minneapolis and St. Paul were ordered to stand down as rioters destroyed their cities. In New York City and Washington, D.C., police stood by as looters destroyed parts of those cities. Still today, nearly two months into this, DiBlasio is preventing police from interfering in any BLM 'protests'. In Portland, the city government has sided with rioters over the Federal government.
What do you call the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political and ideological aims?
Terrorism
What do you call it when Democrat city and state governments abet such terrorism?

We are on the verge of Civil War 2. Portland is today's Fort Sumter.

Interesting exchanges.
"Still today, nearly two months into this, DiBlasio is preventing police from interfering in any BLM 'protests'."
Yes, because we still have the constitutional right to peacefully assemble.
"For three days, police in Minneapolis and St. Paul were ordered to stand down as rioters destroyed their cities. In New York City and Washington, D.C., police stood by as looters destroyed parts of those cities"
Who exactly gave those orders? You know the names of the individuals? You know for a fact these orders were issued? Once again, what is your evidence? Simple question.
"We are on the verge of Civil War 2. Portland is today's Fort Sumter."
Well, that's what happens when we elected an incompetent reality tv game show host. Maybe we've learned our lesson.
Also, can you pick a screen name? Makes it easier to conversate. Thanks.

Astute observations. These are violations of civil rights. trump says he's sending federal agents to Chicago. It'll be interesting to see what goes down.
"peacefully assemble"
You're a joke.
"We are on the verge of Civil War 2. Portland is today's Fort Sumter."
'PilotX' has missed the obvious point - this isn't a "protest" it's an insurrection and the federal government should step in if Oregon joins the Confederacy - I mean refuses to enforce the law and allows federal facilities to be attacked like Fort Sumter.
"You're a joke."
Nice rebuttal.

A bit hyperbolic aren't we? Which federal facilities were attacked in Oregon?
So I guess BLM was justified arresting the Bundys for grazing on federal lands. I guess we can also dismiss the state's rights arguments used by the right.
I have a friend that eight of his family members went to Tampa, FL. They understood they were exposed to someone in Tampa with the virus.
All right went to a facility in Tampa to b tested. They registered when they went in. Their wait was so long, they finally left without being tested.
Upon arriving home, a week later, they ALL received letters telling them they tested positive.
None of them even had a test performed on them!!

Sure you do Francine. Thanks for sharing your story here.
Fergus' storm troopers didn't know what to do with the naked woman who approached their riot line, other than to shoot pepper balls at the ground in front of her feet.
Finally, they just kinda left, her point having been made: the citizens they are harassing are not a threat to anyone, and the only violence and or destruction that goes down is when they show up and incite it on purpose to support his campaign narrative.
The narrative Fergus, in his desperation, has glommed onto to try and save his collapsing numbers in the suburbs, is that there is out of control violence in the cities that threatens the property values and way of life in those suburbs that have had enough of his bullshit. Kind of like the "American carnage" fantasy he yawped about at his inauguration.
He thinks he can scare them into voting for him, which is one of the oldest Republican tricks in the book.
Meanwhile, Biden has released a statement saying that should he be elected, he will take all appropriate actions against foreign interference in our elections, and when asked about the possibility of Fergus refusing to concede when he loses, he said "The election will be decided by the American people, and the US government will have no problem evicting trespassers from the white house."
Fergus done fucked up, and he's starting to realize it. But instead of, say, course correcting and finally doing the damn job, he's all about the PR points, so his reaction to pressure over the out of control pandemic is to restart the corona virus briefings.
That is, he's responding to a major disaster with a TV appearance, and apparently has forgotten why he stopped doing them.
Which would be his rambling wreck of expressed curiosity about injecting disinfectant and shoving UV lights up your ass.
You first, Ferg, you first.

"He thinks he can scare them into voting for him, which is one of the oldest Republican tricks in the book."
Exactly, first it was MS-13, then caravans and when those didn't work it became Antifa and BLM. They try to scare everyone but it helps if you're educated on the issues. The guy I was just flying with told me if Biden is elected the economy will crash. He gave up after I helped him understand that markets historically have done better under Democratic administrations and that markets like stability and trump is not the guy to look to for stability. After a while he gave up on the scare tactics because facts seem to have that effect. Oh well, only a few more months to go.
The only problem is the protesters aren't peaceful. Burning, Looting and Murder are the order of the day...or week or month.
Good luck with that campaign platform. Don't blame the messenger. You will lose.

Anon@10:36 💯
Actually, Pilot, they had to release most of the people because there was no evidence to hold them on anything. I think snatching them off the street to create fear was the point.
Unless DHS come up with some explanation for what specific federal crimes they are investigating, people may reasonably infer that Trump has sent the feds to suppress riots that ended a month-and-a-half ago.
Thanks for the help, big guy. But your efforts on riots are about as effective and useful as your efforts against COVID-19.

Trump is going absolutely wild today, throwing loads of red meat to the adoring MAGA trash.
He announced an executive order to exclude illegal immigrants from the census count for apportionment purposes (plainly unconstitutional), and his deranged press secretary expressed support on Trump’s behalf for the gun-nutter McCloskey couple, who’ve been criminally charged in Missouri.
Hey, what good are guns to a wingnut if you can’t use ‘em to threaten people you don’t like? That’s no fun.
"exclude illegal immigrants from the census count for apportionment purposes (plainly unconstitutional)"
Of course it isn't unconstitutional to apportion by the number of citizens.
What do want, another 3/5 compromise for your Slavery-Lite?
"BLM is a Marxist/Communist based organization that is NOT about African American issues. Its a trojan horse to launder money and push Marxism."
Not necessarily the worst thing in the world. Communists have always been a force for equal rights. Look back during the civil rights movement, Communist organizations have always strived for equality.
“What do want, another 3/5 compromise for your Slavery-Lite?”
No compromise necessary, in this case. The Founders counted all “persons” — which illegal immigrants are — at 100%. “Citizens” were not mentioned.
If you don’t like it, take it up with the dead guys in the white wigs. That’s what we liberals get to hear when we object to the idiocy of the undemocratic Electoral College.

Same in Chicago.
It’s totally ridiculous. Police unions are not units of local government and have no authority to “invite” another police force into their cities.
It appears the leaders of these unions are downright bad at their jobs. Their next contract negotiations were already going to be challenging, due to the climate of opposition to police brutality, so why make things even harder by turning the mayor into an enemy? Siding with Trump on this is like taking a dump on the negotiating table before negotiations have even begun.
Typical Trumpkin behavior:

In his online rants, he had described the judge as a “lazy and incompetent Latina judge appointed by Obama.” As things turned out, he didn’t succeed in shooting the judge, but had to settle for shooting her husband and son.

Teen Daughter of Murdered Cop Forced to Remove Tribute to Dad Over Black Lives Matter Harassment
The teenaged daughter of one of the murdered Texas police officers killed last weekend was forced to remove her tearful tribute.
The teenaged daughter of one of the murdered Texas police officers killed last weekend was forced to remove her tearful tribute to har fallen dad because of threats and harassment from Black Lives Matter terrorists.
Savannah Chavez, the daughter of slain officer Ismael Chavez who was killed in McAllen, Texas on Saturday, uploaded her tribute to her father only hours after he was killed in the line of duty, according to the Daily Mail.
“Words cannot describe the pain I’m in, but I’m glad my dad is at peace. You were an amazing man and anyone who ever came across you knew that,” Savannah wrote. “I’m going to miss you so much. You died doing what you loved most, you died a hero. I love you daddy, see you soon. #bluelivesmatter.”
But only seconds passed before Black Lives Matter terrorists began threatening her life for posting the tribute message.
BLM monsters began calling the girl a racist and attacked her in every way possible.
Savannah’s cousin, Mia, later jumped in to defend the fallen officer.
Mia told the attackers to go to hell, and added, “his man was the most loving and caring person anyone could meet. It’s pathetic how people can be so unsympathetic to a girl that is trying to commemorate her father.”
Eventually, Savannah just deleted the tweet in the face of the threats and vile attacks.
This is the hate that fills the cold, dark hole where liberals are supposed to have hearts.

I think these federal invasions are in preparation for November. I recall the "free speech zones" when W was President that were established so he wouldn't have to see protests against him. There will be millions protesting trump all over the country especially the closer we get to the election and that is not a good visual. Millions of people hate trump and will take to the streets to show him our disdain and he has to prevent this. The world would see how very unpopular he is and he is terrified of this so he needs an excuse to crack down on protests. This is a trial run to see if this is possible. The only way we can keep our freedom and ability to protest is to take to the streets in massive numbers. They can't arrest us all and we can even suppress the infiltrators who want to start chaos so the suppression tactics are justified. Alright folks, we need massive demonstrations to keep our democracy. We won't let this idiot pull a Nixon on us. Get ready.

This group, who we might refer to as the disirregardlessers, makes their displeasure with this word known by calmly and rationally explaining their position ... oh, who are we kidding ... the disirregardlessers make themselves known by writing angry letters to us for defining it, and by taking to social media to let us know that "IRREGARDLESS IS NOT A REAL WORD" and "you sound stupid when you say that.
The reason we, and these dictionaries above, define irregardless is very simple: it meets our criteria for inclusion. This word has been used by a large number of people (millions) for a long time (over two hundred years) with a specific and identifiable meaning ("regardless"). The fact that it is unnecessary, as there is already a word in English with the same meaning (regardless) is not terribly important; it is not a dictionary's job to assess whether a word is necessary before defining it. The fact that the word is generally viewed as nonstandard, or as illustrative of poor education, is likewise not important; dictionaries define the breadth of the language, and not simply the elegant parts at the top."

"LMAO! PilotAA is wetting his pants over a scary story the Jew media told him."
Please identify the media story to which you are referring.
Macklin Fleming, Justice of the California Court of Appeal, wrote a personal letter in 1969 to Louis Pollak, the dean of Yale Law School. Fleming was concerned about the plan Dean Pollak had recently announced under which Yale would essentially implement a racial quota – 10% of each entering class would be composed of black students. To achieve this goal, Yale had just admitted 43 black students, only five of whom had qualified under their normal standards.
Judge Fleming explained why he believed this new policy was a dangerous experiment that was likely to cause harmful stereotypes, rather than reduce them.
"The immediate damage to the standards of Yale Law School needs no elaboration. But beyond this, it seems to me the admission policy adopted by the Law School faculty will serve to perpetuate the very ideas and prejudices it is designed to combat. If in a given class the great majority of the black students are at the bottom of the class, this factor is bound to instill, unconsciously at least, some sense of intellectual superiority among the white students and some sense of intellectual inferiority among the black students. Such a pairing in the same school of the brightest white students in the country with black students of mediocre academic qualifications is social experiment with loaded dice and a stacked deck. The faculty can talk around the clock about disadvantaged background, and it can excuse inferior performance because of poverty, environment, inadequate cultural tradition, lack of educational opportunity, etc. The fact remains that black and white students will be exposed to each other under circumstances in which demonstrated intellectual superiority rests with the whites.
No one can be expected to accept an inferior status willingly. The black students, unable to compete on even terms in the study of law, inevitably will seek other means to achieve recognition and self-expression. This is likely to take two forms. First, agitation to change the environment from one in which they are unable to compete to one in which they can. Demands will be made for elimination of competition, reduction in standards of performance, adoption of courses of study which do not require intensive legal analysis, and recognition for academic credit of sociological activities which have only an indirect relationship to legal training. Second, it seems probable that this group will seek personal satisfaction and public recognition by aggressive conduct, which, although ostensibly directed at external injustices and problems, will in fact be primarily motivated by the psychological needs of the members of the group to overcome feelings of inferiority caused by lack of success in their studies. Since the common denominator of the group of students with lower qualifications is one of race this aggressive expression will undoubtedly take the form of racial demands–the employment of faculty on the basis of race, a marking system based on race, the establishment of a black curriculum and a black law journal, an increase in black financial aid, and a rule against expulsion of black students who fail to satisfy minimum academic standards."

I actually study history, something I recommend for you. Here's a quick lesson.
"Tell Me More continues its Black History Month series of conversations with a discussion about the role of the Communist Party. It was prominent in the fight for racial equality in the south, specifically Alabama, where segregation was most oppressive. Many courageous activists were communists. Host Michel Martin speaks with historian Robin Kelley about his book "Hammer and Hoe: Alabama Communists During the Great Depression" about how the communist party tried to secure racial, economic, and political reforms."

https://www.thecollegefix.com/rutgers-english-department-to-deemphasize-traditional-grammar-in-solidarity-with-black-lives-matter/
The English Department at Rutgers University recently announced a list of “anti-racist” directives and initiatives for the upcoming fall and spring semesters, including an effort to deemphasize traditional grammar rules.
The initiatives were spelled out by (((Rebecca Walkowitz))), the English Department chair at Rutgers University, and sent to faculty, staff and students in an email, a copy of which was obtained by The College Fix.
Under a so-called critical grammar pedagogy, “This approach challenges the familiar dogma that writing instruction should limit emphasis on grammar/sentence-level issues so as to not put students from multilingual, non-standard ‘academic’ English backgrounds at a disadvantage,” the email states.
We are developing modular [creative writing] assignments on a) identity issues and b) social change issues that all of our [creative writing] instructors will be invited to use; they will be expected to use one, or to craft their own. This curricular innovation will be part of the entire [creative writing] curriculum for next year – in every [creative writing] class.
So the damn fool tried to get the ambassador to the UK to pressure the UK government to hold the fucking British Open at his golf course in Scotland, the one that has been operating at a million dollar loss for years.

Ex-FBI undercover operative says Obama, others 'turned their back on our country' with Russia
As an undercover FBI operative, Williams Douglas Campbell says he was privy to Russia's ambitions to make the U.S. dependent on Moscow's uranium and became disturbed when he witnessed the Obama administration make deals with a Russian nuclear firm engaged in nefarious activities.
"They were extorting, they were money laundering and they were violating the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act while the United States government was allowing them to go ahead and sign large United States energy contracts for delivery of Russian uranium into the United States to large utility entities," Campbell said during an interview Tuesday on the John Solomon Reports podcast.
Campbell, a key figure in the new book "Fallout: Nuclear Bribes, Russian Spies, and the Washington Lies that enriched the Clinton and Biden Dynasties," said that Washington figures including President Obama, former FBI Director Robert Mueller, former Attorney General Eric Holder, and former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein all "turned their back on our country because they believed ... that Secretary Clinton would be elected."

During the interview Campbell also noted that the Russians boasted of their influence and of American weakness.
"The Russians bragged about the influence, they bragged about the Clinton influence, they bragged about the weakness of this country, they bragged about the weakness of our president and referred to him twice with racial epithets, which were very troubling to me," he said, recalling a fall 2010 meeting with key Russian figures in the Washington DC area.
Campbell worked undercover for nearly seven years helping the FBI build a case that executives tied to Russia's Rosatom nuclear firm were engaged in wrongdoing. His work helped secure at least four convictions of players in the scheme.

This morning it occurred to me that America itself has been abducted by a criminal gang fraudulently operating under color of law.
Trump's regime will eventually go away; so will Covid-19. Just now it has occurred to me that they will go away around the same time. If he is defeated, then Covid-19 will leave us next year; if he stays in office, by his usual combination of folly and crime, then Covid-19 will also be with us for 4 more years.
If he stays in office, then Trumpism and the pandemic will both mutate and adapt; if he is defeated then we will be immunized against what he represents, including deadly disease.

... as practiced in most of the top American universities, affirmative action also involves using different admissions standards for applicants of different races, which automatically creates differences in academic readiness and achievement. Although these gaps vary from college to college, studies have found that Asian students enter with combined math/verbal SAT scores on the order of 80 points higher than white students and 200 points higher than black students. A similar pattern occurs for high-school grades. These differences are large, and they matter: High-school grades and SAT scores predict later success as measured by college grades and graduation rates.
As a result of these disparate admissions standards, many students spend four years in a social environment where race conveys useful information about the academic capacity of their peers. People notice useful social cues, and one of the strongest causes of stereotypes is exposure to real group differences. If a school commits to doubling the number of black students, it will have to reach deeper into its pool of black applicants, admitting those with weaker qualifications, particularly if most other schools are doing the same thing. This is likely to make racial gaps larger, which would strengthen the negative stereotypes that students of color find when they arrive on campus.

It's not "socialism" or "communism" under which we suffer. Our dangerously chaotic, selectively oppressive predicament is more accurately described as "anarcho-tyranny." The late conservative columnist Sam Francis first coined the term in 1992 to diagnose a condition of "both anarchy (the failure of the state to enforce the laws) and, at the same time, tyranny—the enforcement of laws by the state for oppressive purposes."
The "criminalization of the law-abiding and innocent," Francis expounded, is achieved in such a state through: "exorbitant taxation, bureaucratic regulation; the invasion of privacy, and the engineering of social institutions, such as the family and local schools; the imposition of thought control through 'sensitivity training' and multiculturalist curricula; 'hate crime' laws; gun-control laws that punish or disarm otherwise law-abiding citizens but have no impact on violent criminals who get guns illegally; and a vast labyrinth of other measures."
If we had brandished or used our weapons in self-defense, we'd be facing felony assault charges—as armed citizen Steven Baca is in Albuquerque, New Mexico, at the hands of another Soros-subsidized district attorney.
I have a buddy who taught in Mainland China.
He explained to them some of the things that are taught in American universities, things like "White fragility", "dismantling Whiteness" and "gender fluidity".
The students all laughed.
They thought he was kidding.
When he told them he was serious, they got kinda sad, like they expected better from us because they looked up to us.
The Communist Chinese are more socially conservative than so-called "free" Americans.
Calling all trolls. Please tell me why your leader, Mr. Trump, is sending his special troops to Chicago when the PER CAPITA (rated per 100,000 population) homicide rate in Saint Louis Missouri (60.9) is nearly three times the PER CAPITA (rated per 100,000 population) homicide rate in Chicago (20.7).
Moreover, Saint Louis is ranked highest PER CAPITA (per 100,000 population) in number of homicides of all larger American cities while Chicago is ranked sixteenth. Can it be because Missouri is a Republican state and Illinois is a Democratic state? Is that the real reason the orange child is sending his Gestapo to Chicago instead of where the problem is much greater - Saint Louis?

Trump is offering to help quell the violence, which is what a responsible President would do. Democrats of course don't want to quell the violence, and will sacrifice the lives of their citizens rather than work with Trump to restore order.
Are thousands of extra murder victims worth the political advantage they think they will gain from this?
The most likely way the current Black Moment will get canceled is the same way black radicalism got shut down in both the early 1970s and the early 1990s: As black antiwhite rhetoric grows more heated, black spokespersons start complaining about Jews.

Trump just finished a press conference with families whose loved ones have been murdered by the violent crime exploding nationwide.
Earlier today, House Dems held a press conference about removing a bust of Justice Roger Taney, who has been dead since 1864.

Zero national media coverage.

Anonymoid 1:39 evaded your point about St. Louis. Cold disinformation, plus ignorance about American politics: I vote Russian agent. It confirms my point; if all cities are Democratic cities, then all cities are on Trump's little list. Republican mayors will not protect them.
Stereotype (In)Accuracy in Perceptions of Groups and Individuals

Are stereotypes accurate or inaccurate? We summarize evidence that stereotype accuracy is one of the largest and most replicable findings in social psychology. We address controversies in this literature, including the long-standing and continuing but unjustified emphasis on stereotype inaccuracy, how to define and assess stereotype accuracy, and whether stereotypic (vs. individuating) information can be used rationally in person perception. We conclude with suggestions for building theory and for future directions of stereotype (in)accuracy research.
Stereotypes of blacks are accurate.
Stereotypes are statistical truths.
Suck that, Feeled N1663rs.
Blacks are the most racist group in America.
Hydroxychloroquine was approved for medical use in the United States in 1955.[2] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, the safest and most effective medicines needed in a health system.[8] In 2017, it was the 128th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than five million prescriptions.[9][10]

"I vote Russian agent"
The Field Negro Blog is a top priority of Vladimir Putin. Russian intelligence struggles to counter the brilliance of regular posters such as yourself, Granny MSNBC, mikhail from iowa, Doug of Sugar Pine, and the mysterious PilotX.
Keep up the good fight, comrades.

Evade by deflection is what they all do, Paradoctor. It's a device they use thinking that is the way to win an argument. Little kids do that when they get in trouble. Very few people on the right who post here can argue their position effectively. I doubt that anyone will answer my question regarding why Chicago instead Saint Louis.

And just what which "black spokespersons" would that be? And just what "Black radicalism" was evident in the 1990's? I have known many black people, but I never heard one say anything derogatory about Jews.

So tell me, Nick. What's so funny about my post? I was married to a black man for 35 years, so a large portion of my extended family is black. What is your experience with black people?
" I was married to a black man for 35 years, so a large portion of my extended family is black."
But you are not black. As a white person, you lack melanin, and therefore are less than human. When you have a person that has the lack of pigment, the lack of melanin, that they know that they will be annihilated. So, therefore, however they got the power, they have the lack of compassion. Melanin comes with compassion, melanin comes with soul. We call it soul. Soul brothers and sisters. That’s the melanin that connects us. So the people that don’t have it, and I’m going to say this carefully, are a little less.

Take yer pick of articles that claim stereotypes are often inaccurate.
MichaEL Cohen was released from prison because drumpfuck's DOJ retaliated against him for his latest book. All gubmint agencies under drumpf and Barr have been weaponized against drumpf's billions of enemies.
When journalist Michael Tracey asked Ted Wheeler a question about whether mass protest gatherings are advisable during a pandemic, protesters became very upset and accused him of white supremacy. He was surrounded/confronted for ~20 minutes and ordered to leave.

After showing restraint for nearly two months, Trump exercises his rightful authority to send federal forces to protect federal property.

Where in the Constitution dose it permit a president to send unidentified federal agents to any state in order to violate the First Amendment? if you can find it, please post it.
