OUR FEAR SHOULD NOT BE COVID, IT SHOULD BE AGAINST THE DEMOCRATIC COMMUNISTS. This virus was brought in by the Communists as a pre-cursor, to have a psychological effect on All People in the USA of Fear!
This was planned by the communists and they are winning!
Let your fears subside and get out and Fight Back against the Communists! Those with pre-existing conditions, choose your battle, but the rest of us, Against Communism, BLM, Antifa, need to push FEAR out of the way and Fight for America!
Which “right” gives these rioters the ability to do as they please? Protest when and wherever they want? Destroy others property? This is the first federal spending that will have a positive impact on safety in Chicago. Time to reintroduce the rule of law. Sad it takes a force from the outside – one would’ve hoped after all of these years of prog/lib policies rewarding victimhood there would’ve been a return to family, sacrifice, values, and standards.
It’s all about getting Biden and his BLM approved vp elected. That’s what it’s about. All planned, organized and financed by the Democratic Party. They must be stopped.
Burning rioting and looting are not first amendment rights.
Does the BLM lawsuit explicitly promise riots when they lose or is that assumed?
The two tribune reporters openly lied in the story saying there’s a video of the cop punching miracle. A total lie and the tribune is garbage.
That whole story on Miracle Boyd needs a close look. Much of the reporting was false.
If anyone is good searching social media I bet you can find a picture of her from before the protest and see that she never had that tooth.
The false stories were on the left. You received emails proving it was a lie.
Correct. Understood.
Hopefully this presents a good opportunity to depose their “leaders” and subpoena how they are funded through discovery.
RINO Lausch will do nothing as he does what Lori tells him to do. He was on 9 today saying the feds won’t be involved in any protest enforcement.
