EO’s , laws, codes, ordinances all fine and dandy. Worthless without ENFORCEMENT.

Exactly. Why is an executive order required to enforce existing law? Upside down world.

“Attorney General Bill Barr directed the creation of a task force to counter anti-government extremists, specifically naming those who support the far-right “boogaloo” movement ...”

Yes, but of course, cracking down on the far right. Because that’s who is rioting. What a joke.

You cut off the end of the sentence - “and those who identify as Antifa.”

Then why not just say “Antifa”?

The fact that he needs to include a right wing movement (that might not even exist) as the left literally riots in the streets, makes it a joke. Bugaloo movement? Yeah, okay. Maybe Barr can prosecute the KKK too. I notice they keep pulling down statues. Seriously, bugaloo?

“A Presidential order of this kind only applies to Federal property, so the cases would be prosecuted as Federal crimes, not as a disorderly persons offense in some fourth-rate municipal court.”

The article states “public” monuments and withholds money if the locals don’t protect them. Not as good as a long jail sentence but it’s something if he follows through. It would cover everything that way.

This crap about far-right extremists that keeps coming up from our FBI and DOJ is pure gaslighting fantasy! They just keep bringing it up, and I’ll paraphrase our lying liars in the media, they keep bringing it up ‘WITHOUT EVIDENCE’!

This is so infuriating!

Colinford Mattis, Urooj Rahman, and Samantha Shader these three activists were arrested for alleged property destruction during the protests that broke out across the country. All three are still being held in jail without bail and are facing life in prison on federal charges.
