Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib has called for the abolishment of police following the fatal shooting of unarmed black man Daunte Wright.
The Michigan Rep. made the radical declaration on Twitter Monday – one day after Wright was shot dead at a traffic stop in Minnesota when a white cop reached for her gun instead of a Taser, which has been characterized as an accident.
‘It wasn’t an accident. Policing in our country is inherently & intentionally racist,’ Tlaib posted to Twitter.
“If George Floyd’s murderer is not sentenced, just know that all hell is gonna break loose”, were the words of model and Black Lives Matter activist Maya Echols. The activist warned that Minneapolis would suffer riots and vandalism if former officer Derek Chauvin isn’t convicted for the murder of George Floyd.
Scholars rightly take umbrage when pundits and activists exploit their work for political purposes. The latest example, at least in religious circles, is the way in which a new book, “Secular Surge: A New Fault Line in American Politics,” is being received by militant secularists.
Members of a far-left group claiming to be responsible for a St. Patrick’s Day vandalism incident targeting McGill University’s Queen Victoria statue issued calls for the royal family to be killed via car crash in a Facebook post taking credit for the incident.
The brother of the suspect charged with 10 counts of murder in Monday’s horrific shooting at a Colorado supermarket said in a new interview that his sibling was not trying to make a “political statement.”
Shortly after Boulder Police identified the suspect as 21-year-old Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa on Tuesday, The Daily Beast published a conversation with his brother, Ali Aliwi Alissa.
“[It was] not at all a political statement, it’s mental illness,” the 34-year-old Ali told The Daily Beast. “The guy used to get bullied a lot in high school. He was like an outgoing kid but after he went to high school and got bullied a lot, he started becoming anti-social.”
MSNBC reporter Morgan Radford profiled an armed black militia group for a report she gave during the Monday broadcast of “Morning Joe.”
Radford reported that the group was formed to defend black people because of, according to their leader, the “deterioration of race relations in the U.S,” with their ultimate goal to create a “black ethno state.”
As Antifa in Portland has announced more riots for tonight and tomorrow night, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas just claimed at a hearing of the House Homeland Security Committee that the most “lethal and persistent terrorism-related threat” that the country faces today is “domestic, ideologically motivated extremism.” It should be clear to everyone by now that by that, he means us: Americans who don’t support the far-left agenda of the Biden administration, the Democrats, and the establishment media.
The FBI on Thursday released 10 new videos that the bureau said show the “most egregious attacks on law enforcement” at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.
In the videos, rioters can be seen punching and beating Capitol Police officers, as well as spraying them with some kind of chemical substance.
A new documentary series airing on HBO will identify the so-called ‘Q’ behind the QAnon conspiracy theorist as Ronald Watkins, the son of Jim Watkins, who owns the 8chan forum where Q has regularly posted information.
“Q: Into the Storm” will point to the younger Watkins as Q himself. If Watkins is indeed Q, the theory would be predicated upon a lie, with Q presenting himself in 8chan posts as a senior government official with detailed knowledge of the inner workings of federal law enforcement.
Extremists used to be classified easily into discrete categories, but that is getting harder to do. Increasingly, extremists’ motivations seem cobbled together from different, even contradictory hatreds — including adherents of both white supremacism and radical Islam. Why this is happening is unclear.
Last year, the Department of Justice (DOJ) charged Army private Ethan Melzer with planning an ambush against his unit. Melzer allegedly sent inside information to a neo-Nazi, white-supremacist group, the Order of the Nine Angles (O9A), for forwarding to jihadist terrorists. O9A members espouse “violent, neo-Nazi, anti-Semitic and Satanic beliefs, and have expressed admiration for both Nazis, such as Adolf Hitler, and Islamic jihadists, such as Osama Bin Laden, the now-deceased former leader of al Qaeda,” according to the DOJ.
On Sept. 3, the FBI arrested Boogaloo Bois Michael Solomon and Benjamin Teeter for trying to carry out attacks in support of Hamas.
Throughout the summer of 2020, we watched rampaging Black Lives Matter Marxists and Antifa anarchists try their damnedest to burn America’s cities to the ground and create as much chaos as possible. Or as Pelosi & Co. saw it, “justifiable peaceful protests.”
As the riots continued, night after night, week after week, month after month, Democrat after Democrat trotted out before a television camera, or onto a CNN or MSNBC set to remind America that “far-right extremists” are far more likely to embrace violence as means to achieve political goals, and peaceful, “buy the world a Coke and teach it to sing in perfect harmony” Democrats were anything but.
In other words, the Democrat Party and its liberal media sock puppets told you not to believe your “lying” eyes as you watched building after building torched, and small business after small business destroyed — many, permanently —along with the livelihoods of hardworking Americans who built those businesses.
Turns out the Democrats were the “misinformed” — not your eyes.
Also turns out that white liberals are far more likely to support using violence to advance their political agenda — than any other demographic in the country. Shocked? Me, neither.
“Corey Hurren committed a politically motivated armed assault intended to intimidate Canada’s elected government,” Judge Robert Wadden of the Ontario Court of Justice in Ottawa said in his sentencing verdict.
Following the hearings that were held to examine what exactly happened during and leading up to the January 6 riot on Capitol Hill, a task force was established to make recommendations to improve security and prevent such unrest in the future. They’ve come back with their first findings now and one of the first suggestions on the list is a bit of an eye-opener. The team, led by retired Army Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré, suggests establishing a permanent National Guard unit in Washington, D.C. with the ability to respond quickly in the event of another attack of that sort. While that may seem like a fine idea at first glance, there are a number of factors that complicate the situation quite a bit.
Glenn Greenwald warned the left is desperate to contain the “mythology” of what happened on the day of the Capitol Riot in order to preserve the Capitol Wall and have Congress create laws expanding surveillance.
My city has been occupied for more than eight weeks. Major thoroughfares blocked, thousands of armed soldiers, armored vehicles, seven-foot fencing, concertina wire.
What’s it all for? An invading army across the Potomac? Rising far-right militias, ready to strike at any moment?
