Given the way over the top rhetoric from Democrats and their media Allie's it's no wonder they are now trying to figure out how to put the genie back in the bottle they opened.

You appear to follow the news closely, yet every time something is mentioned that happened recently, you act like you have no clue.

I can provide more, but this is a city councilman, not some rando basement-warrior...

I, and a few other on the center-right, do create threads when these things happen. They are mostly ignored or some true ghouls - a growing population on this site - come up with bizarre justifications for these acts.

Know what I don't see?

ANY condemnation of these acts from anyone on the left on this site.

So Far, ZERO lefties on this site opposing this...

I condemn it! There's a militant left wing branch that executed a coordinated attack on Border Patrol.

This was insurrection level coordination.
