The FBI Finds ‘No Intel Indicating Antifa Involvement’ in Sunday’s Violence
Trump wants to designate antifa a terrorist organization, despite lack of authority and evidence of wrongdoing.
That is hilarious. Although Meghan will not see the humor. Which is also funny.

You know you’ve done fucked up when half the country actually thinks it’s fine that protesters burned down your precinct.
Trump Wants to Turn D.C. Into a Battleground. He May Regret It.
In inviting the spotlight to shine on Washington, Trump is sure to give media attention to local officials eager to undercut the exact narrative he’s trying to sell.
When the virus spikes around July there won’t be anybody to watch the parade.
“Where the fuck is your chin?” is a favored anitfasicist meme of mine, because it emphasizes the hypocrisy inherent to most White supremacists; they are NOT the finest, most physically fit, attractive specimens of humanity that the species has to offer… most of them are less than mediocre, both physically and mentally…
It’s not “violence” being suggested there; it’s mockery and disgust.
ANYWAY… getting back on topic here, let’s hear it for “Action” Alexandria:

There were about 1000 or so protestors at Annapolis this afternoon. Packed together like sardines going round and round the main block by the harbor. Did not see any looting or violence but I did see a few hundred of them wearing identically silk screened tshirts with the same BLM message on them. The police were just directing traffic but in a small alley there was an APC with 20 or so SWAT officers dressed like they were hitting Felujia and a paddywagon hidden from view.
In Houston today, tens of thousands of people came out including George Floyd’s family. It was a powerful scene.
Although this weekend >500 were arrested, its been thankfully mostly quiet by HPD standards.
After the official march ended tonight the police announced “Leave the area immediately or you will be subject to arrest and additional force may be used against you.” Still looks like things will remain fairly calm
