In calling on Democrat mayors and governors to get tough around the country yesterday, Trump said “these people are anarchists”, referring to the rioters around the country:
Get tough Democrat Mayors and Governors. These people are ANARCHISTS. Call in our National Guard NOW. The World is watching and laughing at you and Sleepy Joe. Is this what America wants? NO!!!
Personally I wish Trump wouldn’t turn so many of his tweets into a political attack on ‘Sleepy Joe’ during a time of such nationwide distress over what’s going on. But I digress…
In response to this tweet, PBS White House reporter Yamiche Alcindor actually tweeted the following: “”These people are anarchists,” President Trump says without providing any evidence.”
“These people are anarchists,” President Trump says without providing any evidence. https://t.co/P7HGwsbKWD
Has Yamiche been watching the news this weekend? Has she not seen all the fires raging, stores broken and looted all around the country? Has she not seen all the cop cars with broken windows and graffiti all over them? Has she not seen members of the press being attacked? Trump doesn’t need to provide evidence, it’s all over the country.
This just goes to show how far the media will go in their hatred of Trump to defend these thug mobs and Antifa groups.
Ted Cruz hit Yamiche late last night:
PBS seems to have trouble w/ what words mean. According to Webster’s:
“evidence” – a sign which shows that something exists or is true : indication.
“anarchist” – one who uses violent means to overthrow the established order.
The media is committed to defending this anarchy and chaos. They have picked a side and it isn’t America’s. This is not a joke. For your own sake, know who they are and what they are doing. 👇🏻 https://t.co/HjJnhZX6EN

Some people learn from others, and some people learn only from experience. And so The Post Millennial reports:
A news editor for a small, independent newspaper was in support of the protests-turned-riots, until they broke into the paper’s office and she had to take cover from looters and vandals in the basement.
Leigh Tauss, an editor for the progressive news outlet Indy Week in North Carolina, was stunned to find that the protesters-turned-rioters did not look favorably upon her business when they swept the area.
She tweeted out on Saturday, saying “the crowd is extremely peaceful and groups and many are wearing masks and trying to keep distance.”
It was only a few short hours later that Tauss tweeted again about the protests. This time her tone was difference.
“I went into the hallway. I heard someone l enter the office and what sounded like smashing inside. We are a small newspaper with a handful of desktops. I’m now hiding in the basement.”

And then on Sunday morning, Tauss posted what had become of her office at the hands of the rioters, tweeting “I’m devastated. We are a progressive newspaper. Last night I was inside when the first brick was thrown.”

A similar scenario happened with ESPN sportswriter Chris Martin Palmer, who encouraged rioters to burn down a low-income housing area in Minneapolis. But when they showed up to his place, he did not hold back in referring to the rioters as “animals.”
Tauss marked the escalations on Twitter.
Several business with windows smashed in Wilmington street. All the wreckage from last night was cleaned up this morning. #Raleighpic.twitter.com/MQvYEqo0lx
It’s midnight. The protesters have spread out throughout downtown, evading the cops. Some are going around smashing windows and lighting fires #raleighpic.twitter.com/PwHtlJw8tM
Not sure why, but dozens of officers just charged at the few remaining protesters. Smoke bombs and fireworks go off in the street #Raleighpic.twitter.com/ur2sp8UaHP
Former ESPN reporter Chris Martin Palmer celebrated rioters burning down a $30 million affordable housing complex in Minneapolis on Thursday, writing: “Burn that s**t down. Burn it all down.”
He changed his tune after the “gated community” down the street from him came under attack.
“They just attacked our sister community down the street,” Palmer tweeted. “It’s a gated community and they tried to climb the gates. They had to beat them back. Then destroyed a Starbucks and are now in front of my building. Get these animals TF out of my neighborhood. Go back to where you live.”

Until Obama/Pelosi/Schumer are arrested for the coup — things will only get worse. These people do not have any fear of being charged. Is there anyone who will FOLLOW THE LAW FOR THE COUP?
