The title above is one of the two key quotes from the last couple of days that I want to use to mark this point in the Grand Summer Charade of 2025. This one comes (via Instapundit) form here:
What we’re witnessing isn’t protest; it’s warfare by other means, complete with pre-printed signs, strategically placed weapons, and political air cover from the very officials sworn to protect public safety. …
With 40 million illegal immigrants in the country, foreign flags raised in burning American cities, and Democrats openly cheering for violence, we’ve crossed from civil unrest into something far more dangerous. …
The era of treating coordinated political violence as spontaneous protest must end now.
The other item I am dropping here is: “There’s a selective shielding going on.” For the fuller context, see this:
Fox News’ [Greg Gutfeld] calls out liberal media’s L.A. coverage: “What I find interesting is how come the networks aren’t interviewing the protesters? There’s a selective shielding going on. They know the protesters are the worst spokesmen for the protest.”
“So, as the media ‘we’ll take care of that for you, we’ll become the spokesman.’ Their delusional commentary alongside the videos of the rioters and the arson is a perfect juxtaposition of reality and ideology. They’re trying to tell us it’s ‘mostly peaceful’.”
“Every video strengthens Trump’s position and reminds us how wrong the media was on everything from the ‘summer of love’ to the fall of Biden.”
