Using the mail to defraud someone is a federal offense.  Nancy Pelosi and her merry band of Democrat tricksters are in the midst of a conspiracy to commit mail fraud.  It’s called universal mail voting.  That’s just one of the poison pills in Pelosi’s latest Wuhan virus relief boondoggle.  The Dems don’t just want to spend another $3 trillion we don’t have, they also want to defraud us of our right to vote in November.  Democrats say they just want to make sure vote-by-mail is an “option.”  But Pelosi’s bill does more than that.  It requires States to give absentee ballots to anyone who requests them, for any reason.  Elections are conducted under each State’s laws.  Some States permit that, and some don’t.  But there’s more.  Every State must automatically send a mail-in ballot to all registered voters.  Every registered voter in the entire country would automatically get a ballot.  Oh, and one more thing, States would be prohibited from removing inactive or illegal names from the voting rolls.  Not worried yet?  There’s more.  Pelosi would make it illegal to require voters to prove their identity before receiving a ballot; it would be illegal to require a notary’s or witness’s signature confirming the identity of the voter; and it would be illegal to double-check a mail-in voter’s identity.  So we won’t know if the ballot was cast by a registered voter.  Then there’s ballot harvesting.  Pelosi’s bill would prohibit States from placing restrictions on who can turn in a voter’s ballot.  The bill specifically allows paid political door-knockers to tell people how to vote and then take possession of their mail-in ballot for them.  President Trump has vowed to veto the bill if it gets to him, but as I said, the States are supposed to make the election rules, and many States are planning an all-mail ballot election.  Democrats and their media lapdogs are all for it – now.  In 2012, The New York Times said mail ballots increased the risk of voter fraud.  The Washington Post warned, this year, that mail ballots may not get counted.  In fact, the plan is a recipe for disaster.  In 2016, 23% of votes were mail ballots.  Quadruple that number and what could go wrong?  In 2018, 42.3 million ballots were mailed.  Over 10 million went “missing.” 1.4 million ballots were “lost” in Los Angeles County alone.  Democrats say “no problem,” States like Washington already vote by mail.  That’s true.  But, it’s also true that it took Washington years to create a system, and  even now, the best Washington officials can say it “it works pretty well.”  Why must we vote by mail?  Well, it’s the Wuhan, of course.  But is it?  That consummate expert, Dr. Fauci recently said there’s no reason people can’t vote in person.  Follow the science, right?  Not in this case.  Not when Democrats see an opportunity to steal an election.  Here in New Jersey, Governor Murphy has decreed that the November election will be conducted by mail.  Now, we have election laws in Chapter 19 of our statutes, but Murphy didn’t bother to consult the Legislature.  He simply “suspended” the laws in Chapter 19.  The election’s November 3rd, but Murphy’s executive order permits postmarked ballots to be counted if received by November 10th.  No postmark?  No problem.  Murphy will count them if they come in by November 5th.  Federal law requires the election to be conducted “on one day,” but one day, seven days, what’s the difference?  How can he do that?  Legally, he can’t.  He’s operating under a Disaster Relief law which gives him no such authority.  No problem though, because Democrats keep saying there’s no evidence that voter fraud exists.  Except that it does exist, right here in New Jersey.  A Paterson special election has to be rerun, and four men were indicted, for pervasive mail-in ballot fraud.  Over 800 ballots were invalidated, being found in mailboxes bundled together, hundreds of ballots in a single packet.  20% of ballots cast were rejected.  2,300 ballots were disqualified because the signatures on them didn’t match the signatures on voter records.  This was a local election, just a few thousand votes to inspect.  In 2016, 3.9 million votes were cast in New Jersey in the presidential election.  You think they’re going to check all the signatures, and if so, how long will that take?  Governor Murphy’s not concerned by the fraud though, in fact, he cites the Paterson case as proof the system works, calling the Paterson election a “positive example” of mail-in voting.  Huh?  It makes you wonder how he got to be a billionaire.  Oh well, as Balzac once noted, “Behind every great fortune there is a crime,” and a great crime is being planned for November.  Never forget that Leftists always accuse our side of exactly what they’re doing.  This no exception.  Here’s Governor Murphy, “Let me be clear, vote by mail in this election will keep people safe.  The president’s campaign is putting itself on record as wanting to delegitimize the November election … weaponizing the U.S. Postal Service to disenfranchise voters.  This is now a full-throated campaign to undermine the election itself.”  So, who’s really planning to delegitimize the election?  Listen to Hillary Clinton, “Joe Biden should not concede under any circumstances, because I think this is going to drag out, and eventually I do believe he will win if we don’t give an inch, and if we are as focused and relentless as the other side is.”  Remember the 2000 election?  This will be worse.  Mailing ballots to everyone on the voter rolls invites fraud.  I prosecuted people for selling their prescription drugs to make a buck.  You don’t think thousands of ballots will be sold to the highest bidder?  The pandemic is now under control.  There’s no reason we can’t vote in person.  There are lines in stores, and we survived.  In April, Wisconsin held a primary at the height of the pandemic.  400,000 people stood in line to vote.  There was no Wuhan outbreak.  As I write this, thousands of people in New Jersey are standing in lines for hours at Motor Vehicle offices.

Governor Murphy considers this safe, but voting unsafe.  Maybe it’s because the State gets no revenue when you vote.  You can risk Wuhan, as long as you’re giving us a check, but just to vote?  Sorry, too dangerous.  It’s a damnable lie, and vote by mail is a fraud.

I recently saw that a company is selling T-shirts with the logo, “Make Orwell Fiction Again.”  The shirts feature Big Brother’s eyes watching you.  That might sound funny, but it’s not a joke, it’s a warning.  We’re living George Orwell’s dystopian nightmares.  Our response to the Wuhan virus put me in mind of another Orwell work, Animal Farm.  And it’s with no enthusiasm that I must tell you, we’ve met the animals, and we’re the sheep.  The sheep in Animal Farm have no names and no individuality.  The pigs (think establishment) run the farm.  Squealer (think the media) teaches the sheep to simply bleat in unison, “Four Legs Good, Two Legs Bad.” Which is not much different than today’s Squealers intoning, “Biden good, Orange Man bad.”  How did Americans become the sheep?   When French historian Alexis de Tocqueville toured America in 1831, he concluded that American freedoms were protected, not only by our Constitution, but by our individualism.  America was built by rugged individuals and innovators, who tamed its frontier, built its industries, and created new technologies.  These individuals built the nation that defeated fascism, fed the world, and went to the Moon.  But that was then.  Now, we’ve turned into a nation of cowards, hiding under our beds from a disease.  Driving alone in our cars, with masks on, in case the Wuhan virus is hiding in the vents.  Afraid to see our neighbors, or touch our loved ones.  Why?  Because Orwell’s latter day pigs, who are controlling the message, tell us so.  “Four Legs Good, Two Legs Bad” has been replaced by “Stay at Home, Wear a Mask.”  No, I’m not a virus denier, whatever that is.  The Wuhan virus is a serious problem, but it’s no more than the latest of a multitude of diseases that have afflicted mankind.  To be blunt, shit happens, witness the 200 million deaths from the bubonic plague, 56 million from smallpox, 50 million from the 1918 Spanish Flu, and more recently, 1.1 million from the 1957 Asian Flu, and 1 million from the 1970 Hong Kong Flu.  I forgot one.  200 thousand deaths from the 2009-2010 Swine Flu, the one Joe Biden claims he took such good care of.  So, when President Trump said, “It is what it is,” he wasn’t being cold-hearted, he was simply recognizing the reality that diseases exist which are beyond the ability of man to completely control.  Simply put, we did everything possible to lessen the impact of the virus, and no one, least of all Joe Biden, could have done better.  However, the message is, “lock down, stay home, don’t teach, don’t travel, don’t do business, and live in fear.”  And it’s a big mistake.  Dr. Scott Atlas, former chief of neuroradiology at Stanford University Medical Center, recently joined the Coronavirus Task Force.  Dr. Atlas argues for a different approach, protecting the higher-risk populations and allowing the virus to burn through people to whom it poses less of a risk.  The risk of death to children from this disease is nearly zero, and children rarely transmit the virus to adults.  Atlas says we are ignoring five key facts.  1) The overwhelming majority of people do not have any significant risk of dying from COVID-19.  Even in New York City, the epicenter of the pandemic, with more than one-third of all U.S. deaths, the death rate for people 18 to 45 years old is 0.01%.  2) Protecting older, at-risk people eliminates hospital overcrowding.  The stories of mounting new cases ignore a pertinent fact.  Testing 72 million people has found more positive cases, but the rate of serious illness is going down, steadily.  In April, more than 1% of those testing positive were hospitalized in serious or critical condition.  Remember the daily ventilator tallies?  Despite more new cases, fewer people are in serious condition.  In June, 0.9% of positive cases were serious or critical.  In July, 0.8%.  As of 8/19, that number went down to 0.68%.  In other words, it’s getting better, not worse.  3) Vital population immunity (herd immunity) is prevented by total isolation policies, prolonging the problem.  We’ve replaced herd immunity with a herd mentality.  4) People are dying because other medical care isn’t getting done.  For every 2 Wuhan deaths, there’s 1 death that could have been prevented without the lockdowns.  5) We have a clearly defined population at risk who can be protected with targeted measures.  Atlas says opening schools is a national priority, and there is no need to cancel sports, as young healthy athletes are at little risk.  Nobel Prize-winning biophysicist, Michael Levitt, calls our response to the virus “suicidal.”  Emergency room physician, Dr. Dan Erickson, accuses Dr. Fauci of fearmongering, as his lethal regimen is totally divorced from the actual data.  In short, we haven’t “followed the science.”  Dr. Erickson also points out that “social distancing” should really be described as “quarantining the healthy,” which contradicts the basic tenets of both microbiology and immunology.  “When someone has measles you quarantine them.  We’ve never taken those without disease and without symptoms and locked them in their homes.” The lockdown has produced these results – Anxiety hotline calls up 1000%; incidence of child abuse up; financial, emotional distress and suicide up; alcohol abuse up; and 150,000 Americans a month not receiving cancer screening.  And all because we’re playing Fauci Says.  We’ve turned Americans into sheep because this is a political disease, an offshoot from the underlying disease in our body politic.  We have hysteria for two reasons.  The president is a Republican named Trump, and there’s an election November 3.  If Obama was still president, there would be no pandemic, or at least no pandemic stories in the media.  If this was not an election year, there would be no crisis.  We know it’s a political disease because even medicine is politicized.  And not by Trump.  Once he said was hydroxychloraquine might be helpful it had to be demonized as dangerous.  These are lies.  In most of the world it’s not a prescription drug.  Used for more than 60 years, it’s safer than Tylenol.  And it works. It can cut deaths in half.  Democrats  are against it either because they’re blinded by their delusions of rectitude, or are so intent on removing the President that they would rather see people needlessly die than chance Trump being reelected.  Talk about a sickness?  That’s a pandemic of insanity.  It’s high time We the Sheeple sent the pigs packing and regained control of our lives.  Repeat after me, “Freedom Good, Tyranny Bad.”

As the Summer of 2020 continues, we remain in a state of disorientation.  I mean, if it wasn’t 90 degrees, we wouldn’t even know it was Summer.  As my daughter recently put it, since the world locked down in March, we really haven’t had different months, just cold March, warmer March, and now hot March.  Adding to the disorientation is the fact that America has lost its collective mind.  Insanity reigns.  Paddy Chayefsky’s masterpiece, Network, was written as satire, but we’re living it.  I keep hearing the words of Chayefsky’s Howard Beale: “I don’t have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad – worse than bad, they’re crazy.”  Amen to that.  The problem lies in the fact that we no longer can even agree as to what is good and what is bad.  For instance, there used to be a consensus that law enforcement was good, and law breakers were bad.  Not anymore.  The entire world has been turned upside down.  It’s so bad, in fact, that it reminded me of a 1992 speech by Al Gore no less (and there is no less).  During the 1992 campaign, Gore made his famous “up and down” speech. “Unemployment has gone up, the number of jobs has gone down.  The trade deficit has gone up, personal income has gone down.  The budget deficit has gone up, consumer confidence has gone down.  Poverty has gone up, the number of jobs has gone down.  Fear up, hope down.  Everything that should be down is up, everything that should be up is down.  They turned it upside down, and we’re gonna turn it right side up.”  Right now, we have anarchists rioting in the streets of our cities, committing assault, theft and arson.  We have avowed Marxists, who call themselves Black Lives Matter, whose stated purpose is the overthrow of our system of government.  And we have State governors who back the rioters and Marxists.  These same State governors ordered businesses closed, eliminating all tax revenue, and then complained to the federal government that they need money.  We have teachers who refuse to teach.  We have athletes who refuse to compete.  And on top of all this, we have a media that keeps telling us that if we oppose a Marxist takeover of our country, we must be racist.  Up is down, and down is up.  Any wonder we’re disoriented?  Protection of public health and safety is the duty of State governments.  In March, when they were unable to perform this duty, they insisted that the federal government step in and fix the problem.  It did.  In June, July and August, as riots destroyed parts of major cities, perhaps permanently, some States were unable or unwilling to stop the violence.  President Trump offered federal help, and they indignantly refused.  Trump had to send federal law enforcement to Portland to protect the federal courthouse, which was being attacked every night by rioters.  The Feds put up a fence and barriers that prevented rioters from burning  down the courthouse.  Did the State and local officials say, “Thank you?”  Far from it.  Portland cited Homeland Security for erecting a fence on city property without a permit, and obstructing a bike lane “creating a hazard to the public,” and has fined them $48,000 a day, to the tune of more than $672,000.  Apparently, the city doesn’t consider nightly riots a hazard to the public.  Up is down.  Portland’s mayor has changed his tune, though, now conceding that torching buildings is a crime.  He’s not concerned about his citizens, however.  He’s worried that continued rioting will help Trump get reelected.  Ah, a kernel of truth slips out.  The city of Chicago is equally insane.  Every week, scores of people are shot and killed.  On top of that, this week, police dared to shoot back at a man who was shooting at them.  Shocking.  This triggered a riot, which laid waste to Chicago’s Miracle Mile shopping district, dozens of businesses looted and destroyed, while police looked on.  It’s OK though, because Black Lives Matter says the looting was “reparation.”  “I don’t care if somebody decides to loot a Gucci’s or a Macy’s or a Nike because that makes sure that that person eats.  That makes sure that that person has clothes.”  Chicago’s mayor won’t prosecute looters, but she has a “zero tolerance” policy for those who dare to violate Wuhan virus restrictions, threatening to close beaches because a group of men dared to enjoy the sunshine, lecturing, “It’s called a pandemic, people.”  As she said this, 40 people were shot and 4 were killed in Chicago.  There were no Covid deaths in the city that day, and only one death in all of Illinois, a woman in her 90’s.  Up is down and down is up, and not only in Chicago.  Millionaires and billionaires support BLM, an organization dedicated to ending capitalism.  Alleged journalists support BLM and Antifa, which are dedicated to canceling first amendment rights.  The first duty of government is to ensure public safety, but public officials support abolishing the police.  We release criminals from jails for fear of Wuhan virus, and then threaten people with jail for not wearing masks.  In New Jersey, we prosecuted and tried to imprison public officials who impeded traffic on the George Washington Bridge.  Black Lives Matter blocks bridges and Interstate highways with impunity.  Governmental swamp creatures, who’ve run the local, State and federal governments for decades, and who are “the system,” now decry systemic racism.  Elected officials protect looters and rioters, and prosecute homeowners who defend themselves.  They release criminals, and prosecute the police.  You can paint “Black Lives Matter” on the blacktop in big yellow letters, but if you paint over it, making the blacktop black again, you’ll be arrested.  You’re required to chant, “Black lives matter,” but you dare not say that all lives matter.  You also will be immediately arrested if you dare to chalk on a sidewalk, “Unborn Black Lives Matter.”  We’re told that looting and rioting is a response to unarmed black men  being “hunted” by police.  But that’s as crazy as all the rest.  The odds of an unarmed black man being killed by the police are about 1.3 million to one.  You’re much more likely to be struck by lightening, but no one’s protesting the weather.  Up is down, and down is up.  In their zeal to destroy Trump, the Left has turned things upside down.  Hopefully, in November, we’re gonna turn it right side up.

The other day, I was rereading an old book, Only Yesterday, by Frederick Lewis Allen.  It’s a history of America in the decade after World War One.  French journalist Alphonse Karr popularized the saying, “The more things change, the more they stay the same.”  Allen’s description of events 100 years in our past proved this point.  One chapter of the book recounted the Red Scare.  The 1917 Bolshevik revolution in Russia sparked Leftist uprisings in many nations.  America was no exception.  Rightly or wrongly, American authorities saw the threat of communist revolution in the actions of organized labor.  General strikes were common.  One labor union, the International Workers of the World (IWW) practiced “revolutionary industrial unionism,” and had ties to socialist and anarchist labor movements.   There were bombing campaigns directed by anarchist groups at political and business leaders.  Bombs were sent to elected officials, and a wagon filled with explosives was detonated on Wall Street, killing 30 people.  Woodrow Wilson’s Attorney General, A. Mitchell Palmer, struck back by ordering the mass arrests of suspected leftists, mostly Italian and Eastern European immigrant anarchists and communists, many of whom were summarily deported.  In 1920, John Dewey, the first president of the National Education Association, was regarded by some as the most dangerous man in American education, due to his socialist philosophy.  Dewey wanted to fundamentally transform America into a socialist society.  Sound familiar?  Dewey saw education as the means of transformation.  This from the man now regarded as the Father of American education, “You can’t make socialists out of individualists.  Children who know how to think for themselves spoil the harmony of the collective society, which is coming, where everyone is interdependent.”  Dewey hated religion, and he started kindergartens, not to advance early education, but to separate kids from the values of their parents at a younger age.  Dewey’s policies were adopted, and 100 years later, we’ve produced generations of products of public education who are unable to think for themselves.  So, Marxists in the streets doing violence, labor unions, think the NEA, supporting the Marxists and threatening to strike, and young people unable to think for themselves.  The more things change, the more they stay the same.  There is one difference.  In the 1920 Red Scare, the American establishment considered socialists and anarchists threats to be hunted down and eliminated.  A hundred years later, in 2020, we have a new Red Scare.  Today, the Reds we feared in 1920 are the establishment, and those of us who dare to oppose them are now the threats to be eliminated.  In other words, today the Reds really are doing the scaring.  The quote “Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty,” has been attributed to Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, and Joseph Goebbels.  Take your pick.  Democrats have mastered this technique.  In 2016, they accused Trump of colluding with Russians, while they paid Christopher Steele to collude with Russians.  They claimed Trump wouldn’t accept the result of the election, while at the same time using the FBI and CIA to stage a coup to overturn the result of the election.  They’re still singing that song.  Just last week, Il Duce Obama, the man who authorized the 2016 coup, said his greatest fear is that Trump won’t accept the result of the 2020 election.  Translation – Democrats are afraid they may lose again.  The more things change, the more they stay the same.  In 1920, foreign born anarchists conducted violent protests, and set off explosives.  In 2020, home grown anarchists, indoctrinated according to the principles of John Dewey, and actively supported by the Democrats, stage riots and set off explosives.  Fascism developed in the 1920’s.  Democrats like to call Republicans Fascists.  Fascist doctrine is, “All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the State.”  Individual opinion and dissent is not tolerated.  Sounds a lot like today’s Democrats to me.  In 2020, only the opinions of the Left are acceptable, and dissenters are denounced or cancelled.  Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty.  Here’s Democrat James Clyburn, “I feel very strongly that this man [Trump] has taken on strong-arm tactics.  And I feel very strongly that he is Mussolini, and Putin is Hitler.” Stressing the importance of fair elections, Clyburn continued, “I believe that he plans to install himself in some kind of emergency way to continue to hold on to office, and that is why the American people had better wake up.”  This while Democrats plan to steal the election with universal mail ballots.  And Hitler, huh?  America awake?  “Germany Awake” was one of Adolf Hitler’s favorite sayings.  Nancy Pelosi calls the federal agents assigned to protect besieged courthouses “stormtroopers.”  The detestable Chuck Schumer says using federal agents in Oregon is “so un-American, so in keeping with third-world countries and dictatorships.”  This while the rioters they support storm through the streets, attacking all who dare dissent.  So, who’s un-American?  A socialist principle is, “Never let up on the pressure.”  Not even at a funeral, as the funeral of Congressman John Lewis attests.  Il Duce Obama took the opportunity to bash the President.  “George Wallace may be gone, but we can witness our federal government sending federal agents to use tear gas against peaceful protestors.”  Wallace was a Democrat who tried to keep black students from going to school.  This while Democrats are trying to keep all students from going to school.  The Duce continued, “If all this takes eliminating the filibuster, another Jim Crow relic, in order to secure the God-given rights of every American, then that’s what we should do.”  The filibuster predates Jim Crow laws, which were enacted by Democrats, who ran the Senate for 100 years.  More Duce, “Bull Connor may be gone, but today we witness with our own eyes police officers kneeling on the necks of Black Americans.”  After George Floyd, who are the others?  Anyhow, Bull Connor was an Alabama Democrat who used dogs and fire hoses against protestors who simply wanted human dignity and basic civil rights.  Obama could be elected President only because Bull Connor’s world no longer exists.  Obama is an insufferable demagogue.  So let’s compare

Bull Connor –

Bullshitter –

To date, no Democrat has denounced the mob violence of today’s Reds.  By giving aid and comfort to Marxist revolutionaries, the Democrats are playing with fire.  To quote Karl Marx, the patron saint of Black Lives Matter and Antifa,  “History repeats itself, first as tragedy, then as farce.”  So to Democrats I say, come November, May The Farce Be With You.

The City of Portland, Oregon is under siege.  Since late May, we have seen continued violence in many of our cities, while Democrat elected officials have refused to enforce the law.  There’ve been scores of murders, many of the victims  children.  The duty to protect public safety, resides in the State governments.  The States should be enforcing the law in these cities, and it is only law enforcement, which which separates us from Third World nations.  Without the threat of swift and certain punishment, crime increases.  Don’t doubt me.  I practice criminal law.  Every time a person is sentenced, the need to deter him and others is one of the reasons for the sentence.  When you don’t arrest, prosecute, convict and sentence for crime, what you get is more crime.  This was all planned.  George Soros spent millions of dollars to elect hand-selected Prosecutors in big cities, like Philadelphia, Chicago and St. Louis.  Then, liberal States did away with cash bail.  The result, a revolving door, with criminals let loose to commit more crimes, and Prosecutors who refuse to prosecute rioters, preferring to prosecute cops and citizens who dare to defend themselves.  Not coincidentally, this ties in with the stated goals of Antifa and Black Lives Matter; destroy the State, police, military and corporations; live in a world without prisons and punishment; there will be no law to enforce, no money to protect.  Portland simply got there faster than other cities.  For more more than 55 days, Portland has experienced nightly rebellion.  Revolutionaries have besieged the city, turning it into a wasteland.  State and local officials have ordered law enforcement to stand down, and are encouraging the mob violence.  The reason?  There’s an election coming up, and Donald Trump dared to send federal law enforcement officers to Portland to protect federal property.  With the whole city in insurrection, the President could lawfully send in federal troops, as 12 other presidents before him have done.  He hasn’t.  The federal officers are simply protecting the federal courthouse complex, which has been attacked by rioters every night for more than 55 days.  It put me in mind of an old Charlton Heston movie, 55 Days at Peking, about the 1900 Boxer Rebellion.  A Chinese secret society, known as the Righteous and Harmonious Fists (the Boxers), attempted to drive all foreigners from China.  Ruled by the the Dowager Empress, Tsu Hsi, the Boxers burned churches and residences, and killed suspected foes on sight.  Sound familiar?  Hundreds of Chinese Christians and members of foreign legations, were besieged in Peking (Beijing) for 55 days, till an international military force freed them.  The Portland siege is being conducted by the Woke community, so we could call this the Wokester Rebellion.  Conducted by a secret society, the Self-righteous and Felonious Shits of Antifa and BLM, under the control of the Dowager Speaker of the House.  Here’s Tsu Hsi, the Boxer Dowager Empress, and her latter day counterpart, the Dowager Speaker of the House, Nan See

Although the Wokesters assault the cops, vandalize buildings, break down fences and barricades, and try to burn the courthouse every night, Democrats, like Nan See, deny there’s any violence.  It’s just a peaceful protest by mothers and veterans.  And Nan See says Trump is to blame for sending “Unidentified stormtroopers.  Unmarked cars.  Kidnapping protesters and causing severe injuries in response to graffiti.” “First Amendment speech should never be met with one-sided violence from federal agents.”  So, according to the Dowager Speaker, while you can’t yell “Fire” in a crowded theater, you can set it on fire.  Numb-nuts Portland Mayor Wheeler claims, “People are being literally scooped off the street into unmarked vans, rental cars, they are being denied probable cause, they are denied due process.  They don’t even know who’s pulling them into the vans.”  They’ll know who they are when they get their criminal complaints and the agents appear to testify against them at trial.  Oregon’s Attorney General is suing federal agents for doing their jobs.  The city of Portland wants to fine the Feds for erecting barricades and fences (the only things preventing the courthouse from being burned down), because they block a bike lane and represent a hazard to the traveling public. (You can’t make this shit up).  Democrats are proving that Denial is not just a river in Egypt, as they conjure a world that even George Orwell couldn’t envision.  “War is Peace.”  “Slavery is Freedom.”  Now, Rioting is Peaceful.  House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler says it never happened. “That’s a myth that’s being spread only in Washington, D.C.”  Is it?  Here’s the truth, pictures being worth a thousand words –  The courthouse is behind the fence.

This is just the peaceful Antifa infertility dance.

Trying to set the courthouse on fire.  Luckily, they’re not experienced arsonists.

These are peaceful Molotov cocktails and high capacity rifle magazines seized in Portland.  I thought Democrats wanted gun control.

No violence here.  Just a bonfire at a pep rally for Joseph Stalin State Teacher’s College.  “Go, Commies!”

The idea that any American city would permit what is depicted above to go on for two months, to the detriment of its citizens, is disgraceful.  Portland may be Woke, but it’s also severely screwed up.  It’s had three Police Chiefs in four months.  What does that tell you?  The fact that any Federal elected official would presume to deny the ongoing mayhem and violence in Portland is downright treason.  Dozens of local and federal police officers have been assaulted and injured.  Three federal agents have lost their eyesight after being attacked with lasers.  The Fifth Column, I mean Fourth Estate, downplays this violence, the New York Times reporting, “The police said 59 officers had been injured, including one who was hospitalized.  Many of the injured officers were able to return to duty.”  According to “the Old Gray Liar,” I mean Lady, “The most serious injury to a [federal] officer to date occurred when a protester wielding a two-pound sledgehammer struck an officer in the head and shoulder when the officer tried to prevent the protester from breaking down a door to the Hatfield Courthouse.”  Other injuries included “broken bones, hearing damage, eye damage, a dislocated shoulder, sprains, strains, and contusions,” and “agents had been burned by fireworks and a “caustic substance” that were thrown over a fence surrounding the courthouse.”  I guess Jerry Nadler doesn’t read the Times.  I’m damn glad there isn’t any violence.  Good news though.  The violence, and the virus, both will go away after Biden is elected.
