  1. *arrested And the only actual video of it I’ve seen looks very suspect. The supposed “abduction” shows the suspect not even resist nor say a word to the person recording. He was already turned around before they walked up to him. Definitely looks like he was an inside informant or undercover agent of some kind.

  3. For doing his job? Jesus Christ you sheep. These were riots, not “peaceful protests”

  4. When did they take it in the first place?

  5. Far right? For supporting trump? Trump is probably the leftest republican in years. Years ago he even affiliated with the Democrats. These riots were going on for 60 days. No social distancing, a lack of masks, burning buildings. 2 officers were injured when a firework was shot at them, and a police office was burnt down. This is enough.

  6. Ok first off it’s not treason. Under the Insurrection Act of 1807 a president can: “deploy U.S. military and federalized National Guard troops within the United States in particular circumstances, such as to suppress civil disorder, insurrection and rebellion” This has been used countless times, like in Texas to stop the Governor from stopping blacks from entering school with white students (after the dissolving if the segregation laws), it was also used in the LA Riots.

  7. And when did trump ignore the virus? He was in of the first leaders in the world to stop travel to and from China - despite the WHO exclaiming the virus wasn’t that dangerous and didn’t deserve harsh disruption to global activity. He then shut the borders to Europe, even though much of the media said it was ill informed and not necessary. Once it got into America - which was inevitable - trump lost his control. A president can close the borders to the country and between states, but he cannot enforce nation wide quarantines.

  8. Yeah, police only use tear gas when it gets violent

  9. Because their state doesn’t care. Who are they going to run to? Democrats only care about the ones with the biggest voice, they don’t care about you or me
