[America Daily] The communists are back to their old tricks: Pressure from above, and pressure from below, to destroy freedom and all who resist. In recent days, United Nations "High Commissioner for Human Rights" Michelle Bachelet (shown), an actual communist who defected to the brutal dictatorship enslaving East Germany, blasted the United States amid protests and riots, painting the nation as a racist abomination in need of deep reforms to address "structural racism."
Exploiting the death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer, the far-left UN "human rights" boss — a big fan of the late mass-murdering dictator Fidel Castro — made all sorts of demands, too. Naturally, establishment propaganda outlets posing as news organizations around the world parroted the dishonest claims by the scandal-plagued UN operative, further tarnishing America’s image abroad. She also demanded that U.S. authorities bow down to the demands of the "protesters."
Short, revealing Excerpt:
[Harvard Kennedy Center] On my journey, there have been many episodes, painful to remember. In my youth as a military child, in my time at West Point, and in my military career, even during my time as an Army general, I was personally impacted by explicit and implicit bias, as was my father, as were my grandfathers and their fathers. And I observed injustices perpetrated against others, as so many are now witnessing, again, reminding me of the continuing work of becoming "a more perfect union." This part of American culture, this inherent bias, must go away for good.
Disappointment, because a sacred trust has been breached.
Believable, unless of course you might have happened to serve with Vince Brooks, the most perfumed prince of perfumed princes. The virtual epitome of the 'made man.'

Assignment for students. Write a short assay (2 - 2.5 pages) wherein the esteemed general justifies the use of USA military in USA by a democratic president.

There are still seats available to flag officers in the club car. Simply show your Globalist-ticket or Never-Trump pass. Hurry lads, the train is leaving in less than 5 short months.

The mere mention of his name among senior leaders was a 'WOKE virtue signal' long before the current WOKE mantra. It was the.... 'I too speak a little jive' card flip.

As an African American man, the feelings of inadequate and unfulfilled justice that I have felt for too many years of my life come again to the fore.
Experienced bias in his career? And yet, somehow he got an appointment to West Point and rose to become a 4-star general.
Quite a few times in our history, our military has intervened in domestic situations, e.g. L.A. riots, and school integration in the South. The ultimate intervention occurred in the Civil War by Federal troops into the South.
Comes off sounding like just another "cloaked" attempt to get Trump.

^It's sounds like another affirmative action beneficiary, promoted orders of magnitude beyond his (or hers) competence, who feels a victim of discrimination.
[American Greatness] - All the stops have now been pulled out in the necessarily unorthodox Democratic presidential campaign.
The Democrats are simultaneously blaming the president for blundering into the coronavirus crisis, (though how isn’t explained beyond deficiencies of testing, which has nothing to do with prevention or cure); and with failing to extend the lockdown long enough (meaning until their election victory is secured by the resulting economic hardship). They accuse him of indifference to police racism, though his comments on the George Floyd killing in Minneapolis two weeks ago are identical to theirs, and of somehow being responsible for the extreme violence and destructiveness of some of the urban protests, but also of oppression and Bonapartism in threatening to use the armed forces to quell the violence if the Democratic mayors and governors don’t deploy adequate forces to contain the violence. Their latest trick is orchestrated anti-Trump statements by disgruntled former senior military officers.
There was never any question of just letting this one go as unwinnable, as when they renominated Adlai Stevenson to run against Dwight Eisenhower in 1956, or when conservatives nominated Barry Goldwater in an ideological revolt against Lyndon Johnson and the Kennedy Myth in 1964. The Democrats were never going to acquiesce this year in what has become the custom of alternating two-term presidencies.

I dunno but it also looks like he was poking one of the police officers on the chest. It might have been that he was just getting in the officer's face with his cell phone. Besides impeding the movement of the police, he was being frickin annoying.

I'd say it would be good practice for the cops to HERF the protester's phones in situations like that, but antifa would just start sending guys with pacemakers.

Made me think of kickers in football games. Any time a member of the opposing team gets anywhere near them, they fall to the turf and act like they've been injured hoping the referee will throw a penalty flag. It's an age old trick but sometimes it still works.

If the kicker is a klutz and injures himself during the execution of this stunt, so much the better.

Idjit was carrying a helmet of some sort. They don't do much good when they're not on the head.

Like bike locks and skate boards, they are a weapon used by such people for hitting other people very hard.
[Federalist] Minneapolis City Council President Lisa Bender said Americans ought to check their privilege when they voice concerns over the inevitable anarchy that comes from the removal of community law enforcement.
"Do you understand that the word dismantle our police free also makes some people nervous? For instance, what if in the middle of the night my home is broken into? Who do I call?" CNN’s Alisyn Camerota asked Bender on CNN Monday.
"Yes, I mean I hear that loud and clear from a lot of my neighbors — and myself, too, and I know that that comes from a place of privilege, for those of us for whom the system is working," Bender said. "I think we need to step back and imagine what it would feel like to already live in that reality."
[American Thinker] When the terrorists become bored and cease terrorizing, when the flames are extinguished, when those who died in the riots are buried and cremated, when the shards of glass from storefronts are disposed of, and when livelihoods are permanently lost, Democrats will still run the vast majority of the deadliest and most dangerous cities in the U.S.
Death and destruction always follow Democrat policies and culture. Stagnant local economies. Unsafe streets for children. Gun crime. Failing schools. Breathtaking corruption. Problems with the police. Property crime. Poverty. Poor public health. Single- or no-parent homes. All are found in abundance in Democrat-run cities, and found overwhelmingly in majority-black neighborhoods.
So who are the true "racists"? By every objective measure and metric, Democrat-run cities are the unequivocal worst places in America to live.
Here's a rundown of how long Democrats have monopolized many of our culturally historic cities. Numbers cited are consecutive days and are slightly rounded up or down.
San Francisco: only Democrat mayors and super-majority Democrat; Boards of Supervisors, 14,000; all 11 current supervisors are Democrats;
Baltimore: only Democrat mayors and only Democrat city councils, 19,000;
Oakland: only Democrat mayors and majority Democrat city councils, 15,000; all eight current councilmen are Democrats;
St. Louis: only Democrat mayors and super-majority Democrat Boards of Aldermen, 24,500; all current aldermen are Democrats;
Milwaukee: only Democrat mayors and majority Democrat city councils, 22,000; in the 20th century, three socialist mayors were elected before the 22,000 consecutive days of only Democrat mayors; the city currently has 15 councilmen — all but one are verified Democrats or were endorsed by the Milwaukee County Democratic Party;
Philadelphia: only Democrat mayors and super-majority Democrat city councils, 25,000; if Philadelphia didn't have the Home Rule Charter (requiring a few city council seats to be the "minority party"), which was approved by voters in 1951, it's likely that the city would have been solely Democrat for even longer than Baltimore;
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
