NANCY PELOSI went on TV blasting the national guard and other emergency protective groups while asking for who in the chain of command ordered them?
The increased presence of U.S. military and federal law enforcement, including unidentified officers, in Washington is "alarming," U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said on Thursday, calling on President Donald Trump to disclose the agencies operating in the city amid protests over racial injustice.

IT SEEMS TO WORK to chase Antifa back to their dungeons and dragons basements.
So why is Pelosi and DC mayor chasing the national guard out of their hotel hating on law and order fighting back on terrorist groups like Antifa? Perhaps it's because shes one of the chain of command on that other side?
During her speach she flashed a symbol using her back hand facing the audience, she flashed a four finger V which was quite long and obvious a signal sign so I looked it up and sure enough that symbol:
The
V sign, when the palm is facing toward the person giving the
sign, has long been an
insulting gesture in England, and later in the rest of the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Canada, India, Pakistan and New Zealand. It is frequently used to signify defiance (especially to authority), contempt, or derision.
Does anyone know if Antifa or Resist terrorists uses this sign as well?
Discuss, but behave please.
What "seems to work"? Firing on innocent civilians engaged in peaceful protest? You think that is why the protests are peaceful?
Numerous white supremacists have been arrested across the USA for inciting riots. For posing as "antifa", and for looting. Well financed crews of young white males on skateboards, with piles of bricks on the corners, and fleets of trucks to clean out high end stores, were shut down.
Poverty, sickness and death. That's what Republicans have given the American working men and women. Poverty, illness and death. People are seeing that now. Forty years of Republican economic policies - and this is the result.
Economic inequality. Wealthy people benefitting financially from the pandemic, and all previous economic crashes, while the working men and women have lost their wealth, their wages have stagnated, and they can't afford to get sick, while sickness and death is all around them.
What you posted is called denial and deflection or displaced behavior the first thing we learn in Psychology 101.
What I posted is "facing reality". What you're doing is deflecting from the death, disease and destruction of the Republican Party, and it's effect on working men and women in the USA over the past 40 years.
Americans are now facing the reality that Republican Party has been lying to them since 1980, and that black people were right when they talked about police brutality. People are stuck at home in the pandemic, watching the TV news because all TV and movie production is shut down. And what they've been watching of Donald Trump and the Republican Party, since the impeachment, is a deranged, out of control man, destroying America.
Trump is completing the Death, Disease, and Destruction trifecta of the Republican Party who has done nothing but disinvest in an equal and inclusive America for 40 years, cutting spending in education, infrastructure and social spending, while increasing spending in the military, policing, prisons, and "controlling" certain segements of the population. These policies abandoned working men and women, in favour of corporations and oligarchs, crashing the economy and only bailing out the wealthy, while bleeding the electorate white through fiscal crisis, after fiscal crisis.
When Reagan took office, a child born into poverty had a 20% chance of getting a good education and getting out of poverty. Today a child has less than a 2% chance of getting out of poverty. When Reagan took office, the working class owned 5% of the wealth of the nation. Today that percentage is 0%, and 40% of working men and women receive public assistance through food stamps, Section 8, or earned income credits. All through the Republican tax code.
Republicans are the ones who have raised the minimum wage only 9 times in the past 40 years, and have seen minimum wage workers go from self-sufficient, to government dependent, while the top 20% of workers, have seen a 1000% increase in their salaries during the same time frame.
Each time the Republicans crashed the economy, the rich got richer, and the workers got poorer. 2008 pretty much wiped out the American worker. 1 million families lost their homes. Wall Street got a bailout, the American worker did not. Wall Street used the money to pay bonuses to those who crashed the economy, further enriching them all, workers were told that keeping them on unemployment benefits too long would "disincentivize" them from returning to work. Not surprising we're hearing the same thing today.
Private wealth has increased by billions of dollars during the pandemic, even as lines at food banks have never been longer. Only an idiot would vote for the Republican Party, party of Death, Disease, and Destruction again, unless you're one of the to 10% who are benefitting financially from their chaos.
