The Hill ^ | 7/1/2019 | Rebecca Klar

Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang is sending well-wishes to Andy Ngo, a journalist at conservative website Quilette, who says anti-fascist protesters attacked him at a demonstration in Portland, Ore. on Saturday.

All 2020 Democrats must now declare where they stand on this! This is why I posted this, more than anything else...

TheHill messed up in one area:

This is not a case of Andy Ngo saying he was attacked at Rebecca Klar said.

This is a case where the videos clearly show that he was attacked.

He is as on Howie Carr a few months back. Only dim to accept invite. Pretty rational guy for a dim. Probably why his mic was turned off during the ‘debate’.

The Daily Caller (a fave of mine) is also reporting on this.

About the only dim left that actually has some brain cells working.

Still not reason enough for me to vote for him though...

Nice catch. That was subtle. He was clearly attacked.

Be funny if Trump made him a tech adviser or something.

THEY DIDN’T MESS UP.

Neither did the other outlets when they said Trump “CLAIMED” that he was spit on.

They know what they’re doing.

Thanks.

You gotta watch these people. They engage in subtle tricks like that.

Not saying she necessarily did (so as to accuse her) as I do not know if they have a typical “editor” that would function in looking over her work.

I hope the lives of the attackers are destroyed.

Like WWII, some entire cities need to be destroyed before things can get better.

I think ANdy Ngo writes for/is employed by the Daily Caller?

Andrew Yang would be a much better VP running mate choice than Buttplug -- at least until Mayor Pete's racism flap dies down.

"Why? I'm going to win California anyway!"

Credit where credit is due.

Andrew Yang is not a complete derelict apparently.
He’s a Dem but he has some decent instincts.

Dem Andrew Yang’s Campaign Manager Proved First to Notice Direct Wind Blowing on the Andy Ngo Assault Issue.

None of these people have any integrity. They stand for nothing except what their money people tell them to stand for, and self enrichment on the side.

That’s it.

It would be nice if he said something about the Portland Mayor and police but he’s a Democrat.

It is either as you have said or Yang himself knows that a tipping point has been reached as the pics of Ngo, Kelly and Blum have been posted from stem to tsern and one cannot go anywhere on the net without seeing the bloodied face and head of John Blum and Adam Kelly and Ngo’s beat up face.

And thus Yang knows which way to go.

Whether or not he actually, truly feels as he said on Twitter - God Almighty may be the only one that knows for sure.

If he truly does feel that way it would be about time that a Democrat actually said ‘no more’ to Antifa.

But, in the end, Yang’s policies are too extreme for me to vote for him.

Perhaps, but I just have a visceral reaction to the whole universal basic income idea.

Andrew Yang raising his hand as a yes for health care at taxpayer expense for illegal aliens is an absolute deal killer for me.

‘Perhaps, but I just have a visceral reaction to the whole universal basic income idea.’
I as well. Interestingly though, he did qualify it by appealing to a Milton Friedman idea about making it contingent on eliminating all welfare payments. Obviously the dims would never let that happen so the idea is a non starter but I enjoyed listening to him.
