As our urban centers around the United States literally burn - stores being looted and citizens sleeping with loaded weapons at the ready, it has become abundantly clear that this destruction and violence has nothing at all to do with the death of a Black man in Minneapolis. In stead, it has everything to do with an act of war and the attempted overthrow of the US government by ANTIFA, a far-Left, Progressive anarchist group.

TRANSCRIPT

As of this recording, the city of Minneapolis and its surrounding counties – along with urban areas around the country – are on fire, literally. Monuments in Washington, DC – including the World War II Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial – have been defaced. A 204-year-old church complex, St. John’s, across from the White House, was briefly set afire. And posters are popping up all over urban centers organizing ANTIFA terrorists to “move the battle to the suburbs”. A federal agent in Oakland was killed and law enforcement – as well as fire and EMS personnel – are under violent attack from coast to coast.

If anyone believes that this violence and destruction is related to the death of George Floyd they are delusional. This is a full-on attempt at crippling the country by Progressive domestic terrorists. This is an act of war at the hands of ANTIFA.

By all rational accounts, the system – which in some cases used to ignore the use of excessive force by law enforcement – is working this time. The four cops who are accused of used excessive force in Minneapolis were terminated, Officer Derek Chauvin has been charged with 3rd degree murder and manslaughter, and the DoJ is looking into the application of Civil Rights violation charges. The system is working. Bad people who did bad things are being punished, investigated, charged and will get tried by a jury.

Yet, in the face of the system working, legitimate protesters took to the streets of Minneapolis. They rightfully marched to protest a questionable death of a man in police custody. These protesters had the hearts and minds of every American. If these protests would have stayed non-violent that would still be the case today. Sadly, violent ideological opportunists; anarchists and hardcore socialists took advantage of the situation.

Now, rioting, looting, and acts of arson on an scale that makes Devils Night in Detroit look like a quaint bonfire have exploded in many urban areas and are threatening to expand into suburban areas across the country. In some larger urban areas this criminal activity has ventured into the suburban areas. Shopping and business centers are closing out of an abundance of caution and county and suburban police forces are gearing up in preparation for the worst. All officers are on heightened alert, public works trucks are set-up as barriers at intersections, people are sleeping with loaded weapons at the ready.

This unrest has spread across our nation in short order; from New York, to Chicago, Nashville to Atlanta, Louisville, Des Moines, Washington, DC, Los Angeles, and other major cities in the United States, and has done so in a curious sense of coordination and precision.

These “protests” stink of being manufactured and pre-prepared, and evidence is pointing to the involvement of Progressive-Left ANTIFA domestic terror group from coast to coast.

Adam Leggat, a former British Army counterterrorism officer and security consultant specializing in crowd management for the Densus Group, describes the ANTIFA agitators thusly:

“The real hard-core guys, this is their job: They’re involved in this struggle...They need protests on the street to give them cover to move in.”

USA Today’s Trevor Hughes describes what the ANTIFA operatives are doing in these protests today:

“Drifting out of the shadows in small groups, dressed in black, carrying shields and wearing knee pads, they head toward the front lines of the protest. Helmets and gas masks protect and obscure their faces, and they carry bottles of milk to counteract tear gas and pepper spray.

“Most of them appear to be white. They carry no signs and don't want to speak to reporters. Trailed by designated ‘medics’ with red crosses taped to their clothes, these groups head straight for the front lines of the conflict.

“[T]hese small groups do battle with police and the National Guard, kicking away tear gas canisters and throwing back foam-rubber projects fired at them. Around them, fires break out. Windows are smashed. Parked cars destroyed...Sometimes they threaten those journalists who photograph them destroying property.”

This is the playbook of ANTIFA. They are a Leftist-backed paid agitator movement that – as a rule – co-opts legitimate causes from pure original intent to serve their Progressive masters who use chaos, violence, and anarchy to facilitate change to their advantage.

Progressive anarchist group leaders – like those of ANTIFA – use identify and victimhood politics opportunistically to play on the emotions of the aggrieved in hopes of agitating them just enough to supply cover for the violent thugs that infiltrate peaceful protests; thugs that are paid to fomenting transformative chaos. They co-opt a legitimate tragedy, incite the flames of emotional rage, and create well-meaning but useful idiots (Vladimir Lenin’s words, not mine) to destroy their own communities. When there is nothing left to burn, when there is no shelter or food to eat, the leaders of the Progressive movement believe they can swoop down with “salvation and solution” that will appeal to the masses. But the price for that solution and salvation is a massive loss of freedom, dependency on government, and the institution of Socialism.

If we are to neuter the abilities of groups like ANTIFA; if we are to combat this fascist group that seeks to forcibly transform the United States from a constitutional republic to a socialist state through insurrection and violent political overthrow, we must be determined to establish a mindset that will serve as a basis for all things moving forward.

We, each of us and as a society, need to establish that we exist in the now; that the laws apply to now; that the actions executed are culpable now. If we want a free and fair society then we must push back strongly against the Progressive special interest groups that constantly attempt to divide us by vilifying specific demographics for the sins of history. We must force them to exist in the now.

So, when bad actors commit crimes – and this applies to everyone, everywhere, on both sides of the political and ideological aisle regardless of race, sex, or religion – they should be investigated, charged, tried, and if found guilty punished. The irony here is that this process is happening right now in Minneapolis, but the violence and destruction continues and at the well-funded hands of ANTIFA who care less about George Floyd and more about toppling a system of government.

Consider the incredible and positive change that was brought forth with non-violent civil disobedience under Martin Luther King, Jr. and Gandhi. These were real leaders of real activist movements that brought about real transformation. Their example and the meaningful and potent vehicles for change they created are the only true way to bring about profound change to societal maladies.

Yet today, in Minneapolis and other urban centers, we are witnessing deceitful players bastardizing the lives of these great men. Even as they lionize them as heroes they engage in violent confrontation and destructive acts, all to facilitate political change and bring about the control the masses outside the strictures of the Constitution.

The ANTIFA activists – and I am including their major funders: George Soros and Tom Steyer, the hierarchy of the Open Society Foundation, the globalists on both sides of the aisle, and the ignorant mouthpieces of the media and Hollywood – are literally pissing on the graves of these two great men.

As I have stated before:

▪Arson does not promote equality
▪Arson does not promote justice
▪Looting does not promote equality
▪Looting does not promote justice
▪Shooting at First Responders does not promote equality
▪Shooting at First Responders does not promote justice
▪Anarchy does not promote equality
▪Anarchy does not promote justice

I am disappointed at the many smart and thoughtful people who have fallen prey to the false narrative of identity and victimhood politics. We must all realize that groups like ANTIFA and the political Progressive Left use identity and victimhood politics to divide people in a quest for power.

Are there bad actors in the world? Yes. That is the reason the promised Progressive Utopia can never come to pass. The frailty of human nature – our natural sympathetic fight or flight responses – mandate self-preservation, when push comes to shove. But we can make our world, our country, our State, and our streets better places if we act the way we want our society to be.

If we want equality then we must exist as equals; no special groups, no hyphenated identities, no groups of privilege, no color, sexual or dogma identity politics; equal. If we want peace then we need to be peaceful; no justifying anarchy, arson and the deadly use of force because “the other guy started it” and no blindly following the disingenuous goading of fascist pied pipers. If you want peace, then be peaceful. And if you want intelligent outcomes then act wisely. Self-righteous, ignorant, and arrogant indignation in the name of activism is centered on ego, not an acts of bringing about solutions. Put the Molotov cocktail down and use your brain instead of your little head. And all of these points apply to everyone, everywhere, on both sides of every issue, no exceptions...
