    After his Los Angeles pizza shop was crippled for two months by the coronavirus pandemic, Bobby Alt reopened Saturday excited to finally dish out slices to customers in person. By the time he closed for the night, he feared the worst for his little business. A largely peaceful protest earlier in the day, which had delivered a steady flow of hungry customers, had given way to unruly groups of vandals tagging and breaking into businesses in the upscale Beverly Grove neighborhood. Alt watched it unfold with a sense of dread, closed up D’Amore’s Pizza and left. When he returned the...

    Former Georgia House Minority Leader Stacey Abrams said the government’s ability to ensure that everyone has a safe way to vote in the November election will indicate how seriously it has responded to calls for racial equality and justice in the wake of George Floyd’s death. Abrams, who is contending to be presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's running mate, is a leading voting rights activist who challenged her defeat in 2018 in the Georgia governor's race to Republican Brian Kemp. Abrams claimed after losing the close race that Kemp, then Georgia’s secretary of state, engaged in voter suppression.

    Thousands of people across the US have flooded the streets to protest police violence in the wake of George Floyd’s death. But as protesters confront police brutality, some are concerned that some protesters are being needlessly aggressive. In several videos circulating on social media, protesters deface, destroy property, or steal things from shop owners. President Donald Trump has blamed some of the protests on Antifa, an umbrella term for anti-fascists, and has sought to designate it as a domestic terrorist group. Attorney General William Barr has also blamed Antifa and “groups of outside radicals and agitators” for “riots” at the...

    Police say the current riots are the most sophisticated and coordinated in years with supply lines, medics and communications. Police intelligence units have uncovered encrypted and walkie-talkie communications as well as social media postings that coordinate the delivery and hiding of weapons and projectiles and the direction of anarchists to specific locations at specific times. In essence, these professional rioters have created command-and-control apparatus as well as supply chains unseen in prior riots that followed the deaths of Rodney King (Los Angeles), Michael Brown (Ferguson, Mo.) and Freddie Grey (Baltimore One federal law enforcement official told Just the News, “The...

    You likely won’t hear a single peep about him from the likes of CNN’s Chris Cuomo, Don Lemon and Brian Stelter, but early Tuesday morning a retired black St. Louis police who’d lived a righteous life and given back to his community was reportedly murdered in cold blood while defending a friend’s pawnshop from one of the left’s beloved looters. One of the first people to bring the death of David Dorn, 77, to the wider public attention’s was President Donald Trump, who tweeted the following late Tuesday, long before the national media picked up the story the following morning:

    More than 400 looters arrested in New York City, New York, riots this week will be immediately freed from jail thanks to Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D-NY) “bail reform” policy that eliminated bail for many nonviolent and violent crimes. As riots rage on in New York City — and Mayor Bill de Blasio has refused to deploy the U.S. National Guard — hundreds of looters arrested for burglarizing shops and stores are set to be immediately freed back onto the streets. The New York Times noted that more than 400 people in New York City have been arrested for looting commercial...

    How do we end systemic racism in our society? The only way to see ourselves in a true light is to listen to the voices of so many who are hurting and grieving,” Bush said in a statement Tuesday. “Those who set out to silence those voices do not understand the meaning of America — or how it becomes a better place,” he said. Bush said he and his wife, Laura, have “resisted the urge to speak out, because this is not the time for us to lecture. It is time for us to listen.”

    Chicago needs 3,000 National Guardsmen. Aldermen arguing that the deployment of 375 National Guard troops to seal off the downtown had left South and West Side unprotected. During Sunday calls between the mayor and aldermen, Lopez asked Lightfoot directly what her plan was to protect the neighborhoods after sealing off a downtown devastated by looting, vandalism and arson on Saturday. According to Lopez, the mayor responded that she had a plan for every neighborhood. By Sunday night, neighborhoods were in chaos, warnings about a “coordinated attempt to destabilize our city” turned out to be right. On a second conference call...
