Leftist brutality: Black Lives Matter, Antifa Crowd Beat Man Unconscious in Portland

National Review

"A crowd of Black Lives Matter and Antifa rioters in downtown Portland beat a white man unconscious Sunday night after dragging him from his truck, video footage of the incident shows.
"The crowd surrounded the man’s white truck around 10:30 p.m. near where he crashed into a light pole at Southwest Broadway and Taylor Street. At least one individual punched him as he sat inside before he was pulled out of the vehicle.
"The rioters punched the man and forced him to sit in the street as he tried to answer a call from his wife. One man in the crowd wearing a “security” vest delivered a kick to his head from behind that appears to have knocked him out cold and caused his head to bleed after it hit the street.
"The rioters can be heard accusing the man of attempting to run them over in his truck, but video clips on social media appear to show the moments just before the attack, when the man attempted to help a person the crowd had previously robbed and beaten. When the crowd turned on him, he attempted to drive away to escape, but ended up crashing his truck.
" 'He wrecked his car, and he got beat up because he tried to run people over,” said one black-clad man as he escorts a crying woman to the sidewalk.
"Afterwards, the rioters can be seen going through the man’s truck, saying they are making sure it does not contain any “weapons.” Several street medics begin to attend to the injured man." . . .

The agitators were harassing the driver and he tried to leave the area via a pickup truck but crashed down the road, exciting the rioters as they chased after him.

A crowd is gathered around the unconscious victim’s body; some are pouring water on his head. Others can be heard arguing and establishing BLM responsibility for the attack.

Antifa 'SECURITY' Mobs Truck Driver, Kicks Him in the Face, and Leaves Him Bleeding on the Pavement
. . . "Antifa militants are agitating for the abolition of police. These violent incidents might give some inkling as to what comes afterward. What does antifa policing look like? Does this attack on the truck driver represent an antifa-style traffic stop?" . . .

“Stay the f*** down, n****r,” rioters jeer. They tell him to stay down “until the cops come.” The driver, bloodied and sitting on the pavement, asks the mob if he can answer his phone.
. . . "Another video shows the antifa “SECURITY” thug kick the driver in the side of the head, knocking him unconscious. Others jeer, “Knock that f***in racist! F***in loser. F***ing try and run people over?!”
"After the man lies, bleeding and unconscious, on the pavement for some time, the crowd tries to get him out of the street." . . .

A vapid and dishonest case against Trump

Surber

Don Surber  "Desperate to stop the re-election of President Donald John Trump, Democrats are throwing at him John Kasich, three pro-abortion RINO women, and the chief of staff of a former Homeland Security secretary. The latter's case is as small as his importance in the Trump administration.
"Miles Taylor. the ex-chief of staff in question, wrote an op-ed column in the Washington Post that was as vapid as it was dishonest.
"He said in a video, "What we saw week in and week out, for me, after two and a half years in that administration, was terrifying. We would go in to try to talk to him about a pressing national security issue -- cyberattack, terrorism threat -- he wasn't interested in those things. To him, they weren't priorities.
" 'Given what I have experienced in the administration, I have to support Joe Biden for president and even though I am not a Democrat, even though I disagree on key issues, I'm confident that Joe Biden will protect the country and I'm confident that he won't make the same mistakes as this president."
"Given that Taylor went from Homeland Security to a lobbying job at Google, I'd say he has to support Biden or lose his job."
"Red China, which is the biggest threat to homeland security, bought Biden off 6 years ago when it gave coke-addled Hunter Biden a billion bucks "to invest." Biden flew his son to Beijing in air Force Two to pick up the loot.
"As for Taylor's wild charge that President Trump somehow used Homeland Security politically, Taylor now backs the successor to an administration who used the FBI to lie and spy on a political opponent.
"CNN reported that Jared Kushner dismissed Taylor as a nice kid.
"Kushner said, ""It makes a lot of sense to me that he's endorsing Joe Biden because when he was working at the Department of Homeland Security, no wall was built and the border was wide open. That's why the president changed up the team there."
"Ah yes, the wall." . . .

How are things in Democrat-governed California?

Dear Okie

Gavin Newsom admits it: Green energy mandates are driving California's blackouts

"As Democrats tout their green new deal at their virtual convention, an ugly picture is emerging from California as to what that looks like:
"According to Deadline Hollywood:

As temperatures broke records across the state, California energy officials announced the first rolling blackouts in the state since 2001 and warned that the state was bracing for what could be the largest power outage it has ever seen, likely on Monday.

"And it was pretty bad, Caracas-bad if you lived in the wrong parts. Yet this is the California that touts itself as "the model" for Democrats' climate action, and what the Democrats holding their convention this week would like to impose on the rest of the states if God forbid, Joe Biden gets elected president.
"Gov. Gavin Newsom, who's in the middle of this, and probably hearing from his Silicon Valley baron allies, is finally admitting the truth about the failure of green energy to deliver actual energy when it's needed, calling on the state to 'sober up.'
"According to Breitbart, which is the only news agency out there not editing these 'inconvenient truths' from their stories:

One reason the state lacked power, officials admitted, was its over-reliance on “renewables” — i.e. wind and solar power.

There was not enough wind to keep turbines going, Newsom said, and cloud cover and nightfall restricted solar power.

“While we’ve had some peak gust winds,” he explained, “wind gust events across the state have been relatively mild.”

California’s Blackouts Display The Results Of Kamala Harris’s Favored Energy Policy
"California’s energy travails come at an embarrassing time for the Democratic national presidential ticket of former Vice President Joe Biden and California Sen. Kamala Harris."

How will the greenies explain away California?  . . . "While 2020 has been a difficult year, it’s had one major virtue: It has revealed to anyone paying attention [to] what America will look like if we trade Donald Trump in for the Democrat package. Within a very short time, [America] will be a violent, racist, broken third world country. And if you don’t believe me, look at every blue city and state in America in 2020. That’s your future under the Democrats"

The 2020 Democrat infomercial

Ian Macfarlane

Democrats’ virtual convention was embarrassingly bad television  "The political party that has a near-lock on donations and endorsements from the entertainment industry could not muster a tolerable video feed to take advantage of the 2 hours of free television coverage available to them last night.  The series of pre-recorded video presentations offered as a substitute for an actual Democrat political convention was so tedious that even one of the runners-up in the Democrats’ contest panned it in a tweet." . . .

John Kasich Gushes Over Joe Biden in 2020 DNC Speech — Accused Him of Lying in 2012 RNC Address  "John Kasich couldn’t say enough nice things about Joe Biden during the opening night of the Democratic National Convention, but in 2012, Kasich accused him of being a liar.
"During the Republican National Convention in support of Mitt Romney, then-Ohio Gov. Kasich said, “But Joe Biden told me he was a good golfer. And I’ve played golf with Joe Biden. I can tell you that’s not true, as well as all the other things that he says.” . . .

At DNC, John Kasich Voices Faith In Biden’s Independence Before Sanders Affirms Biden As A Vehicle For The Revolution   " . . .They fear Joe may turn sharp left and leave them behind. I don’t believe that,” Kasich said. “He’s reasonable, faithful, respectful, and you know, no one pushes Joe around.”

"Just moments later, former presidential rival Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, whose team strong-armed Biden into endorsing a litany of hard-left proposals in the “Unity Task Forces” agreement earlier this summer, reaffirmed to voters of Biden’s commitment to pursuing what Sanders celebrated as ideas once considered “radical” have gone mainstream." . . .

Here’s Where The Biden-Harris Ticket Stands On Taxpayer Funded Abortions, Religious Freedom   "Joe Biden promises to protect religious freedom in the United States, but both he and Kamala Harris have advocated for policies that are contrary to the religious convictions of many Americans.
“ 'We all have a right to practice our faith openly, or to practice no faith at all—a right that is being degraded under the Trump Administration’s watch,” Biden’s plan for “Safeguarding America’s Faith Based Communities” says. 
"Both Biden and Harris support tax payer funded abortions and pushed for Catholic nuns to pay for birth control against their religious beliefs. " . . .

Kamala Harris Lies Repeatedly in First Speech as Biden’s Running Mate  . . . "Just look where [Trump and Mike Pence] have gotten us. . . . Millions of kids who cannot go back to school,” Harris said.
"Wrong. It is not Donald Trump’s decision whether kids go back to school, because the federal government does not run schools, but he has urged the schools to reopen. The primary reason kids cannot go back to school is opposition from teachers’ unions. The second-largest teachers’ union is threatening to strike if schools reopen. " . . .
