    He can only call them into DC because its not a state. Individual governors have to ask for any military to be sent to their states.

    So, he skipped the unarmed and lightly-armed military and went straight to the 'heavily armed' ones.

    What a man . . . served in the military, received numerous citations for bravery . . . Oh, hang on . . .

    Sanders says 'ultra-rich' have been ‘looting’ for 40 years, amid looting of businesses and banks
    Destruction to businesses, retailers and banks has been reported in major cities including NYC, D.C., Philadelphia, Boston, Oakland and Phoenix

    As looters target corporations and banks in protest across the county, Sen. Bernie Sanders, a former Democratic presidential candidate, says "ultra-rich" individuals have been "looting" in America for 40 years.

    "The richest 400 Americans sit on $3 trillion – the size of the entire UK economy," Sanders, a Vermont Independent who caucuses with Senate Democrats, tweeted Sunday. "The billionaire class now pays a lower tax rate than people living paycheck to paycheck. The looting of America has been going on for over 40 years – and the culprits are the ultra-rich."

    Sanders has not denounced the actions of the violent protestors, who have set fires in cities and looted large retailers such as Target and banks including Chase.

    In New York City, looters smashed the windows of luxury retailers and loaded merchandise into vehicles on Sunday. In Washington D.C., businesses in Georgetown and other areas were looted.

    The congressional office for Sanders, a democratic socialist, did not respond to an immediate request for comment Monday.

    Like Sanders, Sen. Elizabeth Warren was a 2020 Democrat president candidate who often criticizes millionaires, billionaires and corporations as contributors to income inequality in the U.S.

    Warren hasn't addressed the six straight nights of riots and looting in U.S. cities, sparked by the death of George Floyd, who died May 29 after being arrested by Minneapolis police.

    Boston, in Warren's home state of Massachusetts, is one of the cities that has seen violent protests including looting and vehicles set on fire. Her office also did not respond to a request for comment before publication.

    Authorities in Minnesota said on Monday that George Floyd's death was a homicide that occurred while he was being restrained by law enforcement.

    In an autopsy, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner listed Floyd's cause of death as a "cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression."

    The autopsy listed other "significant" conditions, including hypertensive heart disease, fentanyl intoxication and recent methamphetamine use.

    The document's release came hours after pathologists hired by Floyds' family concluded that he died after blood and air flow was cut off to his brain, causing him to die by mechanical asphyxia.That autopsy, conducted by Dr. Michael Baden, the former chief medical examiner of New York City, found that he had no underlying medical problems that caused or contributed to his death.


    "He was in good health," Baden said.

    It beggars belief that the other three Police officers present have not been charged with anything.

    This is interesting-

    ‘They’re gonna blame us’: Viral videos show black people urging white protesters not to get violent

    As chaos continues to unfold in America, black protesters are expressing fear that their white counterparts are putting them at risk.


    As thousands of Americans flood the streets to protest George Floyd’s death, many black protesters have expressed concerns that white protesters are putting them at risk.
    Black protesters have responded to white protesters defacing property on social media.
    One viral video depicts a white woman writing “Black Lives Matter” in spray paint on a Starbucks.
    A black woman filmed the incident, and tells the white woman to stop, saying police officers and the wider public will blame it on black people.

    ..... In a similar video, taken in Oakland California, a crowd of people who appear to be mostly white smash the windows of a restaurant while a black woman holding a megaphone begs them to stop.

    .... Yesterday on social media, footage emerged of a citizen damaging property during a protest being removed from the area.

    In the footage, peaceful protesters could be seen surrounding a hooded demonstrator wearing a backpack, who was attempting to smash public property.
    The person was lifted up and handed over to police, with one protester shouting, “Get the white people!” as they are removed.
    The crowd could be heard cheering as the hooded protester was handed over to police.

    Kinda interesting how some traditionalists associate open freedom and democracy with hard line Christianity and militarism.

    Not challenged nor questioned by most.
    Subliminally accepted, as such a conditioning is written in their DNA as well.

    Bit odd and disconnected.

    Twitter suspends fake antifa account run by white supremacists

    Twitter has suspended a fake "antifa" profile on its platform, which the tech giant says was linked to the white nationalist group Identity Evropa, for making posts inciting violence during ongoing protests in the United States, according to US reports.


    The recently created account, @ANTIFA_US, issued tweets calling for violence and rioting. "Tonight's the night, Comrades," the account tweeted. "Tonight we say ‘F--- The City' and we move into residential areas… the white hoods… and we take what's ours ..." 
    The post ended with #BlackLivesMatter and #F***America, and the profile's photo included the antifa logo.

    Surprise surprise. These are Trumps very fine people. Antifa is a decentralized organization with no central leadership. It is anarchist in its foundation. Antifa exists for one reason. To combat white supremacists and Nazi's so no surprise that the orange moron would brand them as terrorists.

    Fringe groups point finger back at Trump, Democrats

    Extremist movements on the left and right are pushing back at claims by President Donald Trump and others — including some Democrats — that their members are primarily to blame for the violent unrest convulsing the country in recent days.

    In interviews with POLITICO, followers of both the far-left Antifa and the far-right Boogaloo Bois — diffuse, mostly white, movements without any clear hierarchy or central organization — pointed their fingers back at government officials and expressed their support for black protest leaders.

    "This is really just one more attempt from the Trump administration to distract from real problems," said “David,” a spokesman for Rose City Antifa of Portland, Ore., who offered only a pseudonym in responding to statements from President Donald Trump and administration officials blaming the movement for the outbreak of violence.

    Patrick Fairbairn, an administrator of several Boogaloo Facebook groups, said most people affiliated with the movement were showing up at at sites of unrest to protect protesters, and he offered praise for Black Lives Matter.


    "If they haven’t been heard and they need to be heard, they’ve got to do it their way," said Fairbairn, who identified himself as 23-year-old electrician. "The worst thing is to have this artificial separation between the people."


    On Friday, another far-right group, Oath Keepers, which is affiliated with the militia movement, condemned Trump’s statement that “when looting starts, the shooting starts.”

    I don't either. Nor do the majority in the US. Until we do get a clue nothing will change. We will get recurring same, same but different. Blacklash.

    Mr. Backlash, Mr. Backlash
    Just who do think I am
    You raise my taxes, freeze my wages
    And send my son to vietnam
    You give me second class houses
    And second class schools


    Do you think that all the colored folks
    Are just second class fools
    Mr. Backlash, I'm gonna leave you
    With the backlash blues


    When I try to find a job
    To earn a little cash
    All you got to offer
    Is your mean old white backlash


    But the world is big
    Big and bright and round
    And it's full of folks like me
    Who are black, yellow, beige and brown

    Mr. Backlash, I'm gonna leave you
    With the backlash blues
    Mr. Backlash, Mr. Backlash
    Just what do you think I got to lose

    I'm gonna leave you
    With the backlash blues
    You're the one will have the blues
    Not me, just wait and see

    Langston Hughes / Nina Simone

    Nina Simone, may she rest in peace, was one of my heroes back in the day.

    If your interested, Google, Blacklash Blues Nina Simone and watch her in action.
