    Totally peaceful protesters fired upon with rubber bullets, tear gassed, horse riding police, etc. This is no longer the United States of America. This is evidence that we are now no different than 3rd world countries. Not once in his brief speech to the American “people” did he address the origin of the protests -the murder of Floyd. Trump has finally shown he is a dictator saying he will bring the US Military to handle the protesters-something he can only do in Wash DC. We are either engaged in a positive revolution that will show its colors in November or we are headed for another civil war.

    Well, the Virus, the economic depression, the Energizing of the Black Community, the fact that Trump’s act is probly wearing a bit thin with some undecideds,
    and the fact Biden is ahead in some key swing states…means Biden is in good shape to Win in November.

    Of course, Trump knows that, so that could mean War with Iran,
    Internment Camps for Liberals. Or World War III. Hard to say.
    But Trump only knows one way to fight — No Holds Barred.

    Calling what’s happening on the streets domestic terrorism is both plainly wrong and insanely dangerous and irresponsible.

    Trump’s threat to use the military against the American people under the Insurrection Act is an affront to his oath of office and every precept of American democracy. It would be an illegal and unconstitutional act. Trump is inciting, dividing and weakening America. Disgraceful.

    I imposed a curfew at 7pm. A full 25 minutes before the curfew & w/o provocation, federal police used munitions on peaceful protestors in front of the White House, an act that will make the job of @DCPoliceDept officers more difficult. Shameful!

    DC residents — Go home. Be safe

    Tucker Carlson calling Trump’s lack of leadership “distressing:”

    After Friday’s violence, “the president reassured America that he and his family were safe… He did not mention protecting the rest of the nation, much of which was then on fire. He seemed aware only of himself.”

    Kevin O’Connor@KevinOConnorNBA
    Donald Trump really just had the police fire tear gas and rubber bullets at peaceful protestors in Washington D.C. to clear the streets for a photo op at a church he doesn’t attend with a book he’s never read that teaches lessons he doesn’t preach. Unbelievable.

    If only Barack Obama had some sort of power at some time where he could have done something about racial injustice…

    Sports is the crucible of human virtue. The distillate remains are human vice.
