Meanwhile...

On Monday, the National Capital Region Threat Intelligence Consortium (NTIC), a fusion center for Washington, D.C. that provides support to federal national security and law enforcement agencies, warned in an intelligence assessment that “the District is likely an attractive target for violent adherents of the boogaloo ideology due to the significant presence of US law enforcement entities, and the wide range of First Amendment-Protected events hosted here.”

How many Fusion Center PINS and Alerts do you see, Spence?



Probably as many as the Hawaiian Shirts you see in the above video.

As I said a long time ago, we can make a good case for removing the Confederate Monuments, but it will not stop there. It hasn't.

Democrats are not even TRYING to curb this but good job redirecting.

This is crap, Wayne. There is an opportunity here to fix things but people are burning it all down, the leaders of the we need to do something, are stepping aside to allow the Mob to devour, let's those leaders be devoured.

The time to stop and work together will pass us by. The more unrest and the more out of control things get will ensure that the next stage will be even more violent than the last.

Five years. The Progressive Institutional March Continues. But I guess I'm just paranoid

We are what we are as a nation, the good and the bad, as a result of that minor dust up 150 years ago. We do a disservice to ourselves, our history, and our future when we knee-jerk whitewash* with a broad brush. (* another term hijacked by the WordMafia)


People, we are getting into a very scary time. This fast paced Ping Pong match of reactionary bad ideas is getting out of hand.


What will the Censorship Mafia chose next?

But I digress.

Colleges are changing names of buildings, the Founding Father's are being dismantled, everything abut our Country is now racist as the Cultural Stasi Marches through our institutional.

Everything is on the table. The Progressive Left will rip every monument down, every freedom, and every liberty.

The US Flag is next, just wait.

George Washington's own church is removing a plaque in his honor because he owned slaves

President George Washington attended the Christ Church in Alexandria for more than 20 years and bought one of its pews in 1773 when it opened
A stone plaque that reads 'In memory of George Washington' is displayed on the left side of the altar, but will be taken down
A plaque honoring confederate leader Robert E. Lee will also be removed
The plaques will come down next summer but its unclear where they will head

We now have statues of Abolitionists, Washington, Jefferson, and Grant coming down.

Not only are the Dems not even trying to curb these illegal actions, the other politicians like Republicans etc. seem to be silent about it so maybe they are cowards as well.

Anyone who agrees with trying to erase history by vandalizing, or removing statues because of someone's feelings, is a Communist and hates our country. If you hate our country, go to another country like Venezuela and see how the USA will be when you complete the pussification of America. This madness needs to stop now, take the video evidence and prosecute all who did this and make them pay reparations to replace or clean what was damaged or painted.
You want to peacefully protest, fine but don't destroy things. Some of those people with their pent up anger have never built or made anything in their lives, go to trade school or get a real education to advance yourself. There is zero defense for destroying statues, zero excuse, excuses are for babies. These entitled mindset people are not solving any issues the way they are gathering the media attention, all they are doing is having a baby hissy fit to get what they want, it is pathetic. And what is disturbing is it is working for them.

Teach civics in school again, Progressives have ruined the education system trying to condition our youth. And yes teach history and the reason to learn it.

I think there are legitimate reasons for bringing some down, and that does not necessarily make them a Communist, but there ARE Communists, Anarchists, and surely Opportunists pulling the strings. Though Spence and Wayne would have you think it is Gun Toting Right Wingers in Hawaiian Shirts doing this.

There certainly is no shortage of Opportunists. I despise them. Try earning it with actual work.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Yea, we should celebrate traitors who tried to secede so their racism could continue unfettered. People have been complaining about these for the past 50 plus years.

I have never even insinuated that right wing radicals are behind the removal of monuments.

They are the "very fine people" with the swastikas and torches on the other side of some of these events.

Statues are put up in honor. Taking down statues isn't about erasing history. Complete misread, but seems like the one the cons are pushing. Museums are for archiving history. Don't think anybody is breaking into museums and tearing them apart. Tearing down a Grant statue is stupid.
