Photographer Went Undercover With Looters Expecting To Find White Supremacists. Instead, He Found Anarchists

 Daily Caller

“The ability to continue to spread and to eventually bring more violence, including a violent insurgency, relies on the ability to hide in plain sight — to be confused with legitimate protests, and for media and the public to minimize the threat,” Paresky said.


"A furloughed photographer who documented protests starting on May 31 expected to find white supremacists behind widespread looting but instead found anarchists, according to a New York Times opinion column.

"Jeremy Lee Quinn started photographing a Black Lives Matter protest in Santa Monica, California, May 31 when someone notified him that people were looting a nearby shoe store, New York Times’ editorial board member Farah Stockman wrote in a Wednesday column. When Quinn arrived, he saw young people running out of the store carrying shoeboxes while a group of black-clad men wearing masks behaved like supervisors as the store was looted.

"Quinn witnessed a black-clad white man break a store window with a crowbar the following day, though he didn’t take anything from the shop, Stockman wrote.

"After reviewing videos of looting across the country, Quinn noticed similar groups of masked black-clad supervisors, so he dressed the same way and attended a protest, Stockman wrote. Quinn thought the supervisors would be tied to white supremacy groups, instead, he found a group of “insurrectionary anarchists.” . . .

Rick Moranis punched in head in random attack

 Fox5ny  "Actor Rick Moranis was the victim of a random attack on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.

"That attack happened at about 7:30 a.m. Thursday on Central Park West in the vicinity of West 70th Street just outside of Central Park.

"The attacker sucker-punched the victim, identified by the Associated Press as the 67-year-old "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" star, knocking him to the ground.

"The attacker, wearing an "I (Heart) NY" sweatshirt, walked away.

"The victim suffered from pain to the head, back, and right hip and went to a hospital for evaluation, before reporting the incident to the police.

"The NYPD released a video of the incident.  Anyone with information was asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS.

"On Friday afternoon they also released a photo of the suspect entering a subway station."


One has to ask: If Moranis had felt fear when first seeing this guy coming, would he have been racist? TD

The Rich People Who Rent U-Hauls For Riots In Louisville Where Cops Get Shot

  Charles "Sam" Faddis

"Spoiler Alert: Gates Foundation, Twitter’s @Jack Dorsey and a lot more…"


"Yesterday video footage of a U-Haul truck filled with signs and gear for rioters in Louisville attracted significant attention online. In fact, one of the Twitter accounts that reported on this initially had its account temporarily suspended. Several Twitter feeds captured scenes of apparent Black Lives Matter personnel unloading the truck with the assistance of a blond-haired white woman inside the bed of the vehicle. Follow-up investigation showed that the woman in question was almost certainly Holly Zoller who admitted to having rented the vehicle during a recorded phone conversation.

. . . "Zoller is a local Louisville representative for an organization called the Bail Project, which raises money to bail out individuals arrested for criminal offenses." . . .

U-haul Trucks In Louisville Handing Out Supplies For Rioters? Cops Making Arrests Now As Protest Declared Unlawful   . . . "There are reportedly signs – which some refer to as riot “shields” – and other things being handed out. It is unclear what other items were being thrown out from the U-haul truck in the video above. It is being reported widely on social media that the woman who rented the truck is Holly Zoller of The Bail Project, however, that does not appear to have been corroborated by any official source.

Follow the Money – Who’s Paying to Destroy America?  . . . "One of the Tides Foundation’s projects is the Apollo Alliance, formed under the umbrella of something called the BlueGreen Alliance. This initiative promotes a radical clean energy revolution whose tenets bear an uncanny resemblance to Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal.
"The Alliance for Global Justice also receives money from among others:
  • The Open Society Institute/Open Society Foundations created by George Soros.
  • The Arca Foundation. Arcgives money to radical environmentalists, anti-corporate activists, and supporters of the Communist regime in Cuba.
  • The New World Foundation. From 1982 to 1988 this organization was chaired by Hillary Clinton. The Foundation has given money to the Committees in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador, a group dedicated to a communist takeover of that nation, Grassroots International, a group with ties to the Palestinian Liberation Organization, and Earthjustice, an organization focused on the elimination of the use of fossil fuels.
  • The Foundation for Deep Ecology, an organization that considers human beings to be a plague on the earth. The Foundation embraces the “Deep Ecology Platform,” which emphasizes that there must be a substantial reduction in the size of the world’s human population and that humans must renounce their “current obsession” with achieving “an increasingly higher standard of living.” The Foundation seeks to block industrial activity and “rewild” large portions of North America.
"The Alliance for Global Justice originated in an organization called the Nicaragua Network – a group dedicated to supporting the Marxist Sandinista regime in Nicaragua. It was created by the Nicaragua Network to take charge of actions focused on areas outside of Nicaragua itself. Katherine Hoyt and Chuck Kaufman are founding co-chairs of the Alliance." . . .

The Trump's covid shows the sickness of the left

With Trump's COVID diagnosis, leftists are showing their inner ugliness  "At 1:00 A.M. on Friday, President Trump notified the world that he and Melania have tested positive for the Wuhan virus.  All decent people should hope he recovers quickly because he is a fellow human being and because he is the president of the United States of America.  The left, however, has a massive cohort of indecent people.  Within minutes of Trump's announcement, leftists, many of whom are clearly Biden-supporters, went on the ugliest Twitter rampage I've ever seen." . . .

Classless: An Hour After News Broke of Trump’s COVID Diagnosis, WaPo Publishes: “Imagine What It Will be Like to Never Have to Think about Trump Again”

“I Hope He Dies” – Former Obama Staffer and Hillary Clinton Spokeswoman Tweets Out a Death Wish for President Trump  "Former Barack Obama staffer and Hillary Clinton national spokeswoman Zara Rahim tweeted out “I hope he dies” after news broke that President Trump came down with coronavirus.

Evil: Here Were CNN’s WORST Moments Immediately After Trump’s COVID Diagnosis "Throughout Friday’s early hours, CNNers repeatedly expressed best wishes to President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump after having tested positive for the coronavirus. But behind those best wishes, CNN not only levied their usual, poisonous rhetoric, but plenty of subliminal levels of apocalyptic brainstorming, gloating, and calls for a return to global lockdowns.

"Perhaps worst of all, it led off CNN analyst and former Obama flack Sam Vinograd claiming the President’s diagnosis could “be the most dangerous moment that the U.S. government has ever faced.” No word on why the Civil War, Cuban Missile Crisis, four presidential assassinations, September 11, 2001, or two World Wars tested America and her government less.

"This author kept up through the night and combed the first 90 minutes of CNN Tonight after the President’s tweet to come up with the most ghoulish moments. Below is both a video providing but a sampling of the hot takes and then a Notable Quotables-style blog." . . .

Sick: Nets Excited By ‘Worst Case Scenario’ After Trump Tests Positive for COVID

NBC’s Today show was the worst offender, spending several segments excited by the idea of Trump becoming  incapacitated and replaced.

Who are the Proud Boys?

Enter the Proud Boys. This group was formed by Vice News Founder and comedian Gavin McInnes, who set it up as a joke. Their name is a reference to a song by the hit Broadway show Aladdin and their initiation ceremony is to name breakfast cereals while getting punched on the arm. Affirmation of the superiority of Western Civilizatiton is at the heart of the group's ideology, as reflected in their flag:

 Grant Baker  "In Tuesday’s presidential debate, moderator Chris Wallace tried to corner President Trump: “Are you willing tonight to condemn white supremacists and militia groups and to say that they need to stand down and not add to the violence in a number of these cities as we saw in Kenosha and as we saw in Portland?” “Sure.” responded Trump, before noting that all the violence he saw was the fault of ANTIFA and other left-wing groups. Both Wallace and Biden then implied that white supremacists and Proud Boys were responsible for the violence in Kenosha and Portland, which Trump rebutted by referring to ANTIFA. “ANTIFA is an idea, not an organization.” Biden responded." . . . 

. . . "What earns the Proud Boys the ire of the media is their advocacy of Western Civilization and their free speech activism, specifically their confrontations with ANTIFA. While Proud Boys stay away from ANTIFA events, Proud Boy events inevitably draw ANTIFA presence, usually resulting in self-defense violence and landing the group bad press and legal trouble. Why opposing ANTIFA would invite negative press is answered by a study by Dr. Eoin Lenihan, a professional political extremist group researcher. Dr. Lenihan mapped out the social media connections that American journalists have with ANTIFA members and ANTIFA twitter accounts. Some journalists are members of ANTIFA or actively source information from ANTIFA members who know the journalists will write sympathetic articles."

Proud Boys Founder Announces He’s Suing Biden, CNN and ‘Reporters Who Call Multiracial Patriotic Group White Supremacists and Nazis’   . . . "Despite the fact that the current Proud Boys Chairman Enrique Tarrio is Cuban and African American, Biden and his media lackeys have been smearing the group as “white supremacists” since President Donald Trump walloped him in the debate on Tuesday.  

"Tarrio is the Florida state leader of Latinos for Trump.

"McInnes announced his intent to sue while speaking to Newsmax host Chris Salcedo.

. . . "The Proud Boys are made up of patriotic men from all ethnicities and backgrounds, but have long been a boogeyman for the left to point fingers and make outrageous claims about in order to stir up fear and division.

2012: "Biden continually interrupts Ryan in a way I find incredibly annoying."

 Ann Althouse  "I'm rereading my live-blogging of the October 11, 2012 debate between Joe Biden and Paul Ryan. It's making me view Trump's debate behavior in a different way. I hated the way Biden treated the very polite, earnest Midwesterner Ryan. Excerpts (with timestamps omitted):" . . .

. . . "Debating Trump, Biden got a big serving of what he dished out 8 years ago. Ryan did a fantastic job of maintaining his cool, staying substantive, and going high when Biden went low. And then he lost the election. I'm sure Biden would have been willing to do what he did in 2012 and be completely rude and irritating as hell once again, but he's 8 years older, and, more importantly, Donald Trump is not Paul Ryan. Trump is Trump, and Trump saw the ultra-polished and polite Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan go down to defeat."



Blue States Secede? Make My Day

The one major flaw in Mr. Davis's plan is that state boundaries are not absolute and inviolable. They are political in nature and can be changed. During the last episode of secession in 1863, the state of Virginia was divided along political lines. The eastern part, old Virginia, remained Confederate until the end of the war, and the western part became West Virginia, a Union state.
fineartamerica

American Thinker  "It was a bit of a surprise to read tweets from Lanny Davis, the famous attorney and associate of Bill and Hillary Clinton, detailing the possible secession of the blue states from the rest of the country.  You can read portions of the sequence of tweets here or here.

"This may be Lanny's way of venting Democrat frustration. Despite every dirty trick the left has employed, Trump is still president and may continue to be through 2024.  Okay, if you red-state rubes will not kneel before us, we will pick up our socialist toys and create a country of our own!

"To be clear, this is not a threat of civil war.  It is more like a family law attorney telling the unappreciated wife what she can expect out of the divorce.  For example, Davis claims that the new country will get the following states:

Hawaii, Oregon, California, New Mexico, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, and all the Northeast ... including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and Washington D.C.

"He then claims that his new country will also get the following:

We get the vast majority of the major shipping ports ... Costco, Starbucks, and Boeing ... stem cell research and the best beaches ... the Statue of Liberty ... Intel, Apple, and Microsoft...85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs ... 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal ... Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you.

"He also mentions they get:

... all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools — Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, the Penn, Princeton, and Yale; and Mount Holyoke, Vassar, Smith, Wellesley, Bryn Mawr, Barnard, and Radcliffe colleges; plus UCLA, UCB, Stanford, Cal Tech, and MIT.

Kyle Rittenhouse To Sue Biden-Harris Campaign For Libel – Calling Him A White Supremacist…

 Weasel Zippers


"Via LawOfficer.com:

An attorney representing alleged Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse has announced plans to sue Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his campaign for libel on his client’s behalf after Biden shared a video that appears to suggest the teenager is a White supremacist.

Lin Wood, Rittenhouse’s civil attorney, confirmed to Fox News on Wednesday his intention to sue the former vice president and his campaign on his client’s behalf, just hours after Biden posted the 50-second clip to Twitter.

The tweet, which had garnered more than 48,000 retweets and 148,000 likes by 2:35 p.m. EST, boasts the caption: “There’s no other way to put it: the President of the United States refused to disavow white supremacists on the debate stage last night.”

The media want to change the DEFINITION of RIOT to accommodate BLM and Antifa rioting.

The Associated Press New ‘Guidance’ On Riots Are Frightening & Make Orwell A Prophet  "The AP’s stylebook is like a bible/rule book for journalists to help them frame stories. Earlier this week they released their “guidance” on how to cover riots and revolutions. "In the AP’s infinite wisdom they would prefer the journalist to focus on the emotional condition of those protesting rather than the violence that would “stigmatize” the group" . . .

News Thud


"The AP Stylebook announced a new change that is in keeping with the national press/propaganda networks who are conspiring to hide, cover for, support financially, and benefit from the deadly and destructive anti-American hate riots put on by domestic terror groups Black Lives Matter and Antifa.

"The Stylebook tweeted their intent out loud this week because the media believe, maybe correctly, that they control everything and are accountable to no one.

"Just like every time the trial balloon goes up, they pretend it’s a suggestion. That’s how the left always does things. First they suggest, then they insist, then they come to a restaurant while you’re eating and demand you raise your fist in solidarity or face punishment." . . .

New guidance on AP Stylebook Online

1. Use care in deciding which term best applies: A riot is a wild or violent disturbance of the peace involving a group of people. The term riot suggests uncontrolled chaos and pandemonium. (1/5)

2.  Focusing on rioting and property destruction rather than underlying grievance has been used in the past to stigmatize broad swaths of people protesting against lynching, police brutality or for racial justice, going back to the urban uprisings of the 1960s. (2/5)

3.  Unrest is a vaguer, milder and less emotional term for a condition of angry discontent and protest verging on revolt. (3/5)

House Democrats’ Stimulus Bill Includes CHECKS for ILLEGAL Immigrants, Protections from DEPORTATIONS

HOUSE DEMOCRATS' NEW CORONAVIRUS RELIEF BILL ELIMINATES $600M FOR POLICING: 'IT'S SHAMEFUL'

Politically Incorrect

Socio-Political Journal  "A stimulus package proposed by Democrats in the House of Representatives includes a number of items that will benefit illegal immigrants -- including an expansion of stimulus checks and protections from deportations for illegal immigrants in certain “essential” jobs.

"The $2.2 trillion bill includes language that allows some illegal immigrants -- who are “engaged in essential critical infrastructure labor or services in the United States” --  to be placed into “a period of deferred action” and authorized to work if they meet certain conditions.

"MCCONNELL ON CORONAVIRUS RELIEF DEAL: 'WE ARE VERY, VERY FAR APART' 

"It also grants protections to those employers who hire those undocumented immigrants, ordering that “the hiring, employment or continued employment” of the defined group is not in violation of the Immigration and Nationality Act. That lasts until 90 days after the public health emergency is ended.

"A Democratic description of that part of the bill says that “such workers are deemed to be in a period of deferred action and to be authorized for employment, and employers are shielded from certain immigration-related violations for employing such workers."

"It’s language that was included in the first House Democratic stimulus bill proposed back in May -- a bill that was ultimately rejected in the Republican-controlled Senate.

"Also in the legislation is language that would allow the a second round of stimulus checks, $1,200 per adults and $500 per dependant, to be extended to those without a social security number -- including those in the country illegally who file taxes via an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)." . . .
