Police Shooting of Suspect Charging Officer Armed with A Knife Sets Off Rioting In Lancaster Pennsylvania.
Protesters demand cops let themselves be stabbed or shot. “If the nation’s police officers walked off the job today, it would be hard to blame them. Sunday’s anti-cop riots in Lancaster, Pa., have made the current de facto rules of engagement clear: Officers may never defend themselves against lethal force if their attacker is a minority. They should simply accept being shot or stabbed as penance for their alleged racism.”

COLUMN(S) OF THE WEEK
Dr Joondeph lays out the Dem strategy: “The Democrats don't have to cheat in the casting of ballots. They simply don't have to count the ballots at all. It's quite clever, and Professor Tribe, along with the U.S. Postal Service, provides the roadmap. Democrats will push mail-in ballots, for voter safety, they say….The media will fan the flames with exaggerated case counts and deaths. Democrat governors will keep their subjects in fear….such that everyone is afraid to leave his house for anything, including voting. The Postal Service will conveniently shut down, unable to deliver the ballots. If some post offices remain open, they will misplace or lose ballots. If ballots cannot be delivered, they cannot be counted. The election will not be decided, not on election night, not the next day, next week, next month….. mass chaos and confusion…..the new narrative will be that there is no way to declare a winner as too many ballots were lost and unable to be counted. Enter Professor Tribe's prediction: Section 3 of the Twentieth Amendment……Voilà: it will be up to Congress to decide, the Democrat-controlled House choosing a president and the Senate choosing the irrelevant vice president.”

Important article, this explains a lot: “America’s ‘China Class’ Launches a New War Against Trump…..The corporate, tech, and media elites will not allow the president to come between them and Chinese money……The American elite’s financial relationship with China is the key to understanding what’s been happening in America the past four years.”
https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/americas-china-class-fights-trump
Follow the money. Rush spends a whole segment analyzing this article: “….we would not believe the number of Americans in the military, at the Pentagon who have become independently wealthy via payments from China. Their entire families have been set up. Their futures of the kids they have are set up. And here comes Trump attempting to inflict great harm on the ChiComs as an enemy of the U.S., when so many Americans, including former ranking officials in previous presidential administrations and at the Pentagon have already sold out to the ChiComs, for money, for personal aggrandizement.”

FROM OTHER COLUMNS
“An ACAB (“All Cops Are Bastards”) climate has been built on a lie, fostered by radicals, and tolerated by people who only hope to never be called racist. The lie told and retold creating this climate is that black men are being “hunted down” by cops and killed “just for being black.” It’s repeated by stars, athletes & the media until it’s accepted as true. But it’s statistically, provably, false. It’s a lie creating the climate. The lie is weaponized by a radical group: BLM. Black Lives Matter has a Marxist platform, a driving ideology in critical race theory, violent historical origins, & revolutionary goals.…The lie is then tolerated, believed, and repeated, by naive people who want to get through their day without being called a racist, who may even hope to call a few other people racist online during lunch break, and sit down at the end of the day feeling enlightened and superior. It’s past time to look around, see the climate, see the cost, understand BLM, live virtuously, not signal virtuously, live up to - not tear down - America’s values, and tell the truth.’
-Will Cain, FOX News host

The 11,280 who died directly from the virus (without comorbidities) doesn’t even make the top 10 of causes of yearly U.S. deaths…….CDC employees have reportedly given 8,000 donations to Democrats compared to only five to Republicans…… Sweden (no lockdown) deaths per 100,000 are almost identical with the U.S., despite Sweden having an older population.”

“The quiet part is becoming very loud. Threats of left-wing political violence if President Trump is reelected have gone from subtext to the plain text. Writing at The Atlantic, Shadi Hamid warns of “mass unrest and political violence across American cities” if Trump wins. The Democrats are embracing their inner movie villain: (America) votes for Biden, or it gets the riots again.”

“I was a part of the Never Trump movement. And, much to my shame, I was not a silent but, at times, a vocal and quite brash part. In retrospect, four years later, (hopefully) four years more mature and with the benefit of knowing what we now know about how Trump has governed, I will gladly fall on my sword: I was mistaken….. Many feared that Trump, who had spent little time as a registered Republican or a traveler in the labyrinth of hoary institutions constituting Conservatism Inc., might govern as a Manchurian candidate liberal; in reality, the 45th president has presided over one of the most dynamically conservative administrations in a century.”

“There isn’t a degenerate BLM-ANTIFA leftists won’t riot over. Domestic abuser goes after a cop with a knife? Game on. Drug-addled loser gets into a fight with cops and dies of an overdose? Let’s do this. Sexual abuser fights with police? They probably had it coming, grab the Molotov Cocktails. Gang member runs at a cop with a gun in their hand? No justice, no peace! A murderer blows their own head off? Riot anyway, just because. The rage is all that’s important.”
How the Underground Press Will Thwart the Media and Re-Elect Donald Trump
“Two disastrous actions taken by Barack Hussein Obama during his presidency have delivered extensive damage to the US military, just as planned. The first was the systematic purging of nearly 200 senior officers over five years and their subsequent replacement by Democrat loyalists….His second ignominious action taken was the 2011 Executive Order 13583 directing “government-wide diversity and inclusion training,” which, by 2020, included the implementation of Marxist critical race theory training in all federal agencies including the US military services.”

“When E. F. Hutton speaks, people listen. When William Barr speaks, call an electrician. Mental circuits trip and temperament fuses blow. Example: “Putting a national lockdown, stay at home orders, is like house arrest,” Barr explained. “Other than slavery, which was a different kind of restraint, this is the greatest intrusion on civil liberties in American history…Most of the governors … treat free citizens as babies that can’t take responsibility for themselves and others.”
