www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/05/29/donald-trump-america-terminating-relationship-with-world-health-organization/President Donald Trump on Friday announced at the White House that the United States would terminate its relationship with the World Health Organization. The president said that Chinese officials failed to report details of the coronavirus properly to the World Health Organization (WHO) and pressured the organization to mislead the world about the its dangers. “Countless lives have been taken and profound economic hardship has been inflicted all around the globe,” he said. Trump said that the WHO failed to act on reforms that the United States had demanded, prompting his decision to end America’s role with the organization. “We have detailed the reforms that it must make and engage with them directly, but they have refused to act,” he said. Trump said that the United States would use the hundreds of millions previously sent to the WHO to other international aid programs. “The world needs answers from China on the virus,” Trump says. “We must have transparency.” He noted that Chinese officials shut off people from leaving Wuhan during the peak of the coronavirus pandemic to other parts of China but allowed them to travel the world and spread the virus. “The death and destruction caused by this are incalculable,” Trump said. “We must have answers, not just for us, but the rest of the world.”

Actually, the young have already turned against Biden,(discussed in article posted in the 2020 thread), and the Democrats are fearing the economic rebound as forecasted by Obama’s former secretary,(as that will help Trump), factor in most favor his immigration policies & you really have no idea what you are talking about. |

www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/05/29/pentagon-puts-military-police-on-alert-to-go-to-minneapolis/Pentagon Puts Military Police on Alert to Go to Minneapolis DELRAY BEACH, Fla. (AP) — As unrest spread across dozens of American cities on Friday, the Pentagon took the rare step of ordering the Army to put several active-duty U.S. military police units on the ready to deploy to Minneapolis, where the police killing of George Floyd sparked the widespread protests. Soldiers from Fort Bragg in North Carolina and Fort Drum in New York have been ordered to be ready to deploy within four hours if called, according to three people with direct knowledge of the orders. Soldiers in Fort Carson, in Colorado, and Fort Riley in Kansas have been told to be ready within 24 hours. The people did not want their names used because they were not authorized to discuss the preparations. The get-ready orders were sent verbally on Friday, after President Donald Trump asked Defense Secretary Mark Esper for military options to help quell the unrest in Minneapolis after protests descended into looting and arson in some parts of the city. Trump made the request on a phone call from the Oval Office on Thursday night that included Esper, National Security Advisor Robert O’ Brien and several others. The president asked Esper for rapid deployment options if the Minneapolis protests continued to spiral out of control, according to one of the people, senior Pentagon official who was on the call. ”When the White House asks for options, someone opens the drawer and pulls them out so to speak.” the official said. The person said the military units would be deployed under the Insurrection Act of 1807, which was last used in 1992 during the riots in Los Angeles that followed the Rodney King trial. “If this is where the president is headed response-wise, it would represent a significant escalation and a determination that the various state and local authorities are not up to the task of responding to the growing unrest,” Brad Moss, a Washington D.C.-based attorney, who specializes in national security. Members of the police units were on a 30-minute recall alert early Saturday, meaning they would have to return to their bases inside that time limit in preparation for deployment to Minneapolis inside of four hours. Units at Fort Drum are slated to head to Minneapolis first, according to the three people, including two Defense Department officials. Roughly 800 U.S. soldiers would deploy to the city if called. Protests erupted in Minneapolis this week after video emerged showing a police officer kneeling on Floyd’s neck. Floyd later died of his injuries and the officer, Derek Chauvin, was arrested and charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter on Friday. The protests turned violent and on Thursday rioters torched the Minneapolis Third Police Precinct near where Floyd was arrested. Mayor Jacob Frey ordered a citywide curfew at 8 p.m. beginning on Friday. The unrest has since spread across the country, with protests, some violent, erupting in cities including Washington DC, Atlanta, Phoenix, Denver and Los Angelas. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz ordered 500 of his National Guard troops into Minneapolis, St. Paul, and surrounding communities. But a Pentagon spokesman said Walz did not ask for the Army to be deployed to his state. “The Department has been in touch with the Governor and there is no request for Title 10 forces to support the Minnesota National Guard or state law enforcement.” Title 10 is the U.S. law that governs the armed forces, and would authorize active duty military to operate within the U.S. Alyssa Farah, the White House director of strategic communications said the deployment of active-duty military police is untrue. “False: off the record – title 10 not under discussion,” said Farah in an email response. No off-record agreement was negotiated with The Associated Press. The 16th Military Police Brigade forwarded the AP’s questions to the Defense Department. The three officials with direct knowledge of the potential deployment say the orders are on a classified system, known as the Secret Internet Protocol Router or SIPR for short. Active-duty forces are normally prohibited from acting as a domestic law enforcement agency. But the Insurrection Act offers an exception.
The Insurrection Act would allow the military to take up a policing authority it otherwise would not be allowed to do, enforcing state and federal laws,”said Stephen Vladeck, a University of Texas School of Law professor who specializes in constitutional and national security law.
The statute “is deliberately vague” when it comes to the instances in which the Insurrection Act could be used, he said. The state’s governor could ask President Donald Trump to take action or Trump could act on his own authority if he’s determined that the local authorities are so overwhelmed that they can’t adequately enforce the law, Vladeck said.
“It is a very, very broad grant of authority for the president,” he added.

A reporter literally asked Walz to confirm that "white supremacists" are in Minneapolis stirring up trouble. WTF? Haven't heard anyone ask about ANTIFA yet, but, yeah, this is the fault of white supremacists.

In Minneapolis, residents pleaded for help as the city continued to descend into chaos, with one resident, Ryan Griffin, writing on Twitter, “My neighborhood, burning. Median income $33k. Many have no transit. Our pharmacies, banks, gas stations, restaurants are destroyed. The six closest grocery stores are looted. Our post office is on fire. The nearest gas station is on fire. No response from our city or state.” ProPublica reporter Alec MacGillis noted that a staffer for Minnesota Democrat Attorney General Keith Ellison was apparently “pleading for help in Minneapolis” as the city was overrun by violent rioters. Washington Post reporter Holly Bailey, who was on the ground in Minneapolis, wrote: “Driving around Minneapolis tonight, it is shocking how few law enforcement you see. Seen cops on bikes patrolling downtown, but no sign of National Guard troops or other police. Strategy seems unchanged from the last few nights. Chaos erupts, with little attempt to stop it.” |

President Trump spoke from the White House Rose Garden yesterday and shared what many in Hong Kong are thinking and feeling. He shared the following:
I’m here today to talk about our relationship with China and several new measures to protect American security and prosperity. China’s pattern of misconduct is well known. For decades they’ve ripped off the United States like no one has ever done before. Hundreds of billions of dollars a year were lost dealing with China, especially over the years during the prior administration.
China raided our factories, off-shored our jobs, gutted our industries, stole our intellectual property and violated their commitments under the World Trade Organization…. They were able to get away with theft like no one was able to get away with before because of past politicians and frankly, past Presidents…. The Chinese nation has continually violated their promises to us and so many other nations.
Trump then claimed China pressured the World Health Organization to mislead the world when the coronavirus was first discovered by Chinese authorities. He then went on to say that because the WHO refused to make greatly needed reforms, the US is terminating its relationship with the WHO and will work with other entities instead.
TRENDING: VIDEO: Leftist Protester Killed, Dragged by FedEx Truck in Downtown St. Louis after Mob Shuts Down Highway and Attack His Truck
The President then announced that the US will suspend certain nationals from China who are deemed to have certain security risks in an effort to stop the theft of US intellectual property. He then said [at the 5:30 mark]:
Several of the most significant actions we’re taking are due to deeply troubling situations unfolding in Hong Kong. This week China unilaterally imposed control over Hong Kong’s security. This was a plain violation of Beijing’s treaty obligations with the United Kingdom in the declaration of 1984 and explicit provisions of Hong Kong’s basic law. It has 27 years to go.
The Chinese government’s move against Hong Kong is the latest in a series of measures that are diminishing the city’s long standing and very proud status. This is a tragedy for the people of Hong Kong, the people of China and indeed the people of the world. China claims it is protecting national security but the truth is that Hong Kong is secure and prosperous as a free society. Beijing’s decision reverses all of that.
It extends the reach of China’s invasive state security apparatus into what was formally a bastion of liberty. China’s latest incursion along with other recent developments that degraded the territory’s freedoms makes clear that Hong Kong is no longer sufficiently autonomous to warrant the special treatment that we have afforded the territory since the handover.
China has repleased its promise of ‘one country, two systems’ to ‘one country one system’. Therefore I am directing my Administration to begin the process of eliminating policy exemptions that give Hong Kong different and special treatment…. Our actions will be strong. Our actions will be meaningful.

thehill.com/homenews/administration/500298-trump-calls-floyd-death-grave-tragedy-decries-violent-protests-inTrump calls Floyd death ‘grave tragedy,’ decries violent protests in Florida speech President Trump on Saturday called the death of George Floyd a “grave tragedy” while decrying “violence and vandalism” as protests rippled across the country in the aftermath of the incident. Floyd, an unarmed black man, died in police custody on Monday in Minneapolis. “The death of George Floyd on the streets of Minneapolis was a grave tragedy. It should never have happened. It has filled Americans all over the country with horror, anger, and grief,” Trump said at the outset of remarks at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Fla., after viewing the historic SpaceX launch. “I understand the pain that people are feeling. We support the right of peaceful protesters and we hear their pleas. But what we are now seeing on the streets of our cities has nothing to do with justice or with peace,” Trump continued. “The memory of George Floyd is being dishonored by rioters, looters, and anarchists.”… “No one is more upset than fellow law enforcement officers by the small handful who fail to abide by their oath to serve and protect,” Trump said. “In America justice is never achieved at the hand of an angry mob. I will not allow angry mobs to dominate,” Trump said, declaring it “essential” that the “rule of law” and independent justice system be protected.

The president also congratulated the National Guard for keeping Minneapolis safe last night, after days of looting, violence, arson, kidnapping, and hundreds of businesses being destroyed.
President Trump tore into Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey for his inaction as the city burned during the first few days of riots.
He also recommended that other Democrat run cities that are being terrorized utilize the National Guard to put an end to the madness.
Other Democrat run Cities and States should look at the total shutdown of Radical Left Anarchists in Minneapolis last night. The National Guard did a great job, and should be used in other States before it is too late!”

www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/05/31/ag-barr-antifa-violence-is-domestic-terrorism-and-will-be-treat-accordingly/3:39 Attorney General William Barr on Sunday released a statement on the violent riots breaking out across the country and declared that violence “instigated and carried out by Antifa and other similar groups in connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly.” Barr addressed the violent riots wreaking havoc on several cities across the country as authorities gear up for another night of mayhem. Many, including President Donald Trump, have pointed out that the protests-turned-riots are organized by outside agitators looking to fan the flames and heighten civil unrest. “With the rioting that is occurring in many of our cities around the country, the voices of peaceful and legitimate protest have been hijacked by violent radical elements,” Barr said in a statement on Sunday, stressing that these groups of “outside radicals and agitators are exploiting the situation to pursue their own separate, violent, and extremist agenda.” These violent groups seek to divide, Barr continued, warning that federal law enforcement actions will be “directed at apprehending and charging the violent radical agitators who have hijacked peaceful protest and are engaged in violations of federal law.” Additionally, Barr classified the violence carried out by Antifa “and other similar groups” as domestic terrorism and vowed that it will be “treated accordingly.” Full statement: With the rioting that is occurring in many of our cities around the country, the voices of peaceful and legitimate protests have been hijacked by violent radical elements. Groups of outside radicals and agitators are exploiting the situation to pursue their own separate, violent, and extremist agenda. It is time to stop watching the violence and to confront and stop it. The continued violence and destruction of property endangers the lives and livelihoods of others, and interferes with the rights of peaceful protestors, as well as all other citizens. It also undercuts the urgent work that needs to be done – through constructive engagement between affected communities and law enforcement leaders – to address legitimate grievances. Preventing reconciliation and driving us apart is the goal of these radical groups, and we cannot let them succeed. It is the responsibility of state and local leaders to ensure that adequate law enforcement resources, including the National Guard where necessary, are deployed on the streets to reestablish law and order. We saw this finally happen in Minneapolis last night, and it worked. Federal law enforcement actions will be directed at apprehending and charging the violent radical agitators who have hijacked peaceful protest and are engaged in violations of federal law. To identify criminal organizers and instigators, and to coordinate federal resources with our state and local partners, federal law enforcement is using our existing network of 56 regional FBI Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTF). The violence instigated and carried out by Antifa and other similar groups in connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly Barr’s statement comes as authorities brace for another night of violent chaos, as days of violence, looting, and vandalism overshadow the initial calls for justice for George Floyd. President Trump on Sunday also announced that the U.S. will be designating Antifa as a terrorist organization: Barr noted on Saturday that the violence appears “planned, organized, and driven by anarchic and leftist extremist groups, far-left extremist groups using Antifa-like tactics, many of whom traveled outside the state to promote the violence”:

Right on cue, leftists rush to defend the Communist Antifa..... www.dailywire.com/news/leftists-defend-antifa-after-trump-vows-to-declare-it-a-terrorist-organizationLeftists Defend ANTIFA After Trump Vows To Declare It A Terrorist Organization Within hours of President Trump pledging to declare ANTIFA a terrorist organization for the destruction and havoc it helped reap throughout the nation over the death of George Floyd, the Twitterverse has lit up with scores of leftists proudly defending the communist organization. Under the hashtag #IamAntifa, people largely took the organization’s name (which stands for Anti-Fascist) at face-value seemingly unaware or proud of its communist roots. How did I know I’d eventually be designated a ‘terrorist’ by my own country? I’m an accomplice, here to leverage my privilege and platform, in support of movements for social and environmental justice. Also, will punch Nazis or help you find a medic,” tweeted activist B. Nolan. “Let’s be crystal clear: 1. #ANTIFA = Anti-fascist 2. Domestic terrorism is overwhelmingly carried out by the RIGHT, not the left,” tweeted activist Peter Daou. “What’s weird is that if you spelled out what the acronym for this loose movement called ‘antifa’ stands for and rewrite Trump’s tweet accordingly, it would read: ‘The United States of America will be designating anti-fascists as a Terrorist Organization,'” tweeted MSNBC’s Joy Reid. “ANTIFA” is not an organization. This means Trump is classifying anyone who is against fascism as a terrorist. Fascism is defined as: ‘authoritarian ultranationalism characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition.’ This is how Hitler happened. #IAmAntifa,” said one Twiter user. “I Stand in Solidarity with Antifa & all activists protesting across the country. Black & Brown people have been terrorized by the police for too long. Our Racist System needs to be dismantled & rebuilt,” tweeted another user. “Antifa isn’t an organization. There’s no hotline or website to hit up for info. Antifa stands for anti-fascist and has a long legacy in this country of resisting white supremacy & fascism. This is a dangerous, authoritarian trap to criminalize dissent,” tweeted another. Speaking on CNN’s “State of the Union” and ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday, national security adviser Robert O’Brien said that ANTIFA has hijacked the protests to cause damage and destruction, mostly against minority-owned businesses. “And they did it in Seattle. They have done it in Portland. They have done it in Berkeley. This is a destructive force of radical – I don’t even know if we want to call them leftists. Whatever they are, they’re militants who are coming in and burning our cities, and we’re going to get to the bottom of it,” said O’Brien. “It’s the violent ANTIFA radical militants that are coming out, under cover of night, traveling across state lines, using military-style tactics to burn down our cities,” he said on “This Week.” “And they’re especially targeting the most venerable parts of our cities, George. The minority section, the African American sections, and Hispanic areas and burning down businesses of people that are trying to get a leg up. And the president’s outraged by that. And we all are. And that has to stop.” |

Where did the bricks come from? Who delivered them? And are any official investigations underway? Need more evidence of an operation? What's this: And who's this guy?

Let's see .... mayors and city councils authorize law enforcement - - police departments. The 9th and 10th amendments place the authority in states, not federal ... Governors could provide state police ... if they wanted. SO ... the mayors, and governors of the states affected have the authority. They just lack the COURAGE to enforce the laws. ... UNENFORCED LAWS just embolden the criminals.(Again, there’s a reason the vast majority of these are taking place in areas with Blue Governors, Mayors, etc). ............ The pandemic numbers are over counted as deaths not even from the disease are listed as COVID deaths,(as widely reported elsewhere). Red states are leading the way & opening back up,(following the President’s leadership), with no growth of Coronavirus,(science has shown it hates outdoors & heat). .......... Already been reported that former Obama secretary’s projections of a historic economic rebound in the upcoming quarter has rattled & scared the life out of Democrats everywhere as it will help get President Trump re-elected. ......... This too shall pass much like: the Russia Hoax The failed Impeachment bid Cohen Porn Star etc What else do you have  ? |

Also, let’s forget this: www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/05/31/donald-trump-world-watching-democrats-riots/President Donald Trump urged Democrats on Sunday to call up the National Guard to help stop violent protesters in their cities. “These people are ANARCHISTS. Call in our National Guard NOW,” Donald Trump wrote. “The World is watching and laughing at you and Sleepy Joe. Is this what America wants? NO!!!” Trump specifically pointed to rioting and looting in Philadelphia “Law and Order in Philadelphia, NOW!” Trump wrote. “They are looting stores.” The president took credit for urging Minnesota Democrats to call up the National Guard in Minneapolis on Saturday after days of rioting Trump reminded Americans that Democrat leaders of major cities and states were failing to protect their residents. “Is this what voters want with Sleepy Joe?” he asked. “All Dems!” ....... Again, this has shown how much of a failure Democrat leadership is & how them channeling Neville Chamberlain’s failed ideology of giving criminals what they want, DOES NOT WORK. |

Two things: #1: It’s just a piece of cloth that at one time represented a failed political ideology. The only “power” it has is whatever you the viewer allows it to have. (FYI, the only flag that causes any reaction from is Old Glory herself). #2: I’ll let the late great Anthony Hervey,(a black man), speak: www.goodreads.com/author/show/278432.Anthony_Herveywww.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/07/21/outspoken-black-advocate-for-the-confederate-flag-killed-in-miss-car-crash/?outputType=ampExcerpts: First, Hervey was a Confederate flag supporter on his way back from a rally in support of a Confederate monument in Birmingham, Ala. Second, he was black. ...... “I think it’s appalling what took place in South Carolina,” Hervey told the Tribune reporter in 2000. “They have the right to wave that flag — and it’s my moral duty to stand up and say it.” He added, “And we’re telling the world that we’re not a bunch of darkies spitting out watermelon seeds — which is what a lot of Northerners feel we are.” ..... “This is not racism. This is my heritage,” Hervey said in 2001, as Mississippians voted to retain the disputed flag. He said support for the rebel banner was akin to “standing up for home.” ...... He also stated he did it to honor those blacks who fought for & died for the Confederacy. Read his book & educate yourself a bit, before getting all bent out of shape over a simple piece of cloth. |

President Trump warned governors if they will not act to protect their citizens – he will!
President Trump: “I am mobilizing all available federal resources, civilian and military, to stop the rioting and looting, to end the destruction and arson. And to protect the rights of law-abiding Americans, including your Second Amendment rights… We are ending the riots and lawlessness that is spreading throughout our country. We will end it now. Today I have strongly recommended to every governor to deploy the National Guard in sufficient numbers that we dominate the streets. Mayors and governors must establish an overwhelming law enforcement presence until the violence has been quelled. If a city or state refuses to take the actions that are necessary to defend the life and property of their residents then I will deploy the United States military and quickly solve the problem for them.”
President Trump put the governors on notice.

www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/06/01/d-c-mass-riots-end-as-trump-military-restore-order-in-nations-capital/The streets of Washington, DC, were quieter on Monday night after President Donald Trump deployed the National Guard to the city to enforce a 7:00 p.m. curfew. Trump relieved Democrat Washington, DC, Mayor Muriel Bowser of command of law enforcement in her city after days of failure to stop violent rioting, looting, and property destruction, including multiple fires. Federal law enforcement deployed in force around the city after successfully moving protesters out of Lafayette Park across from the White House. President Trump made a point of restoring law and order by walking to the historic St. John’s Episcopal Church that was damaged by violence next to the White House on Sunday night after delivering a speech vowing to stop the violence. That angered Bowser, who accused the president of making the job of D.C. police harder. But the presence of federal law enforcement dominated the streets of Washington, DC. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Milley was spotted visiting the troops in the streets of DC, as they deployed around the city. Attorney General Bill Barr and Defense Secretary Mark Esper also were spotted visiting the police lines. Dozens of protesters were arrested in the city for breaking the 7:00 p.m. curfew. Helicopters were deployed to hover over crowds of protesters to encourage them leave the streets.

Antifa is an anti-democratic hate group whose radical left-wing ideology rejects the free market and freedom of speech,” Bystron said in a press release seen by Breitbart London
