There is the loophole. What they're doing is lawful so his statement doesn't hold water with these federal agents.

Obviously, but the narrative has been set that anything to the right of Antifa is fascism, white supremacy, literal NAZIs, etc. I mean, there's ZERO reason to even HAVE Antifa in America. We have no fascist political parties here. They are a hammer with no nail...so they need to invent them.

All of these terms used to have actual meanings. Now they are tossed out at merely epithets towards anyone they disagree with.

You probably supported Bureau of Land Management harassment of cattle ranchers didn't ya? Did not mind those federal "troops" at all right?

Duh, protect federal assets, the feds also have jurisdiction in other types of action as well including on banking institutions i.e. ATMS, and basically anything that might interfere with interstate commerce.

The feds should let the anarchy run its course. If the States, with their States Rights powers, don’t protect the federal assets/ buildings in their jurisdictions, withhold the full repairs costs from any federal funding that jurisdiction is due to receive.

Basically, protect it our pay to rebuild it.

For the same reason Federal help showed up when certain States abandoned minorities in the 60s

If leftist governments and leftist government officials want to let leftist mobs be turned loose upon their populations then they can expect some federal help

I agree that Trump is playing this very well. If he keeps at this course of action the Dems are digging their own grave for November. They know this too, so they're trying to escalate things.


Which I think is VERY difficult to do. He could shut it all down and it would feel great and would make his base happy. But he'd be giving the left ammunition. They clearly do not care about they own citizens or property, so using them as sacrificial pawns here is an easy call.

He just needs to stick with this and not be bullied into acting. But he also needs to continually point out what's happening. no reason not to tell everyone exactly what you've said...that these Mayors and Governors are obvious baiting him into coming in, but that he won't do it and that their citizens will bare the brunt of this as they are used as bait.

I’ve asked you this before, and I’m going to keep asking you until I get a satisfactory answer.

Do you even think about some of the ridiculous shite you say, or do you just let it fly, no matter how fricking stupid it is?

If I were Trump what I would do instead is fence off these shithole cities and restrict movement out of them. Let them burn themselves down.

This falls today under the guise of "peaceful protests" and is Constitutionally protected.

What is your definition of a peaceful protest?
Just a little peaceful arson, peaceful destruction of property, peaceful rock/bottle/ball bearing throwing, peaceful swinging of bats/sticks/poles, peaceful smashing windows and peacefully overturning vehicles, let's not forget, peacefully shooting motorists too.

Because the local governments in such places flat out refuse to do their jobs. They're letting their citizens be terrorized by a small minority of anarchists and federal property is being vandalised along the way.

It is really simple, if they don't want these agencies in their cities, then they need to get these "protesters" under control. If they won't, the feds will.

Looked him up. He's basically a William Kuntsler wannabe. A radical who loves scumbags. 30 years of being a public defender, with a particular hard-on for going after cops. And now he's the cops boss.

There isn't a major city worth saving at this point.

Philly should declare independence from USA, become a free city. That'll show 'em.
