When it comes to understanding what the alt-left is doing politically, Laura Ingraham gets it better than most

[BluesLegend]

I have no clue, but I doubt an "entertainer" like Ingraham has a clue, or even wants one.
Try listening to reporters and gathering facts, instead of rumors, innuendo and conspiracies.
FOX actually has real journalists, but it also mixes in these "entertainers" who care nothing for the truth. They only care about their ratings, and will say anything to keep their ratings high. Of course that is what has gotten many of them in trouble and fired.

True, President cannot be master of all things, and yet Obama was blamed for all things that went wrong, and got little credit for anythign that went well. LOL

Yeah, she's just a simple entertainer who knows nothing about what's going on:

Ingraham worked as a speechwriter in the Reagan administration in the late 1980s. Afterwards she earned a J.D. degree and then went on to work as a judicial clerk in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York and then for United States Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. She also worked for the law firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom in New York City.

In 1985, Ingraham earned a B.A. from Dartmouth College. In 1991, Ingraham earned a Juris Doctor from the University of Virginia School of Law.[5]

In the late 1980s, Ingraham worked as a speechwriter in the Reagan administration for the Domestic Policy Advisor.[7] She also briefly served as editor of The Prospect, the magazine issued by Concerned Alumni of Princeton. After law school, in 1991, she served as a law clerk for Judge Ralph K. Winter Jr., of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, in New York and subsequently clerked for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. She then worked as an attorney at the New York-based law firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom.[8] In 1995, she appeared on the cover of The New York Times Magazine in connection with a story about young conservatives.[9]

In 1996, she and Jay P. Lefkowitz organized the first Dark Ages Weekend in response to Renaissance Weekend.[10]

If she knows what is going on, then her track record of lies cant be excused by ignorance. It is deliberate.

A track record you say, can you name specific lies?

Sure.

She claimed that there is no scientific evidence to support social distancing as a means of inhibiting virus transmission.

She claimed that the 90% public support for background checks was debunked. Polls say otherwise.

She stated that Sotomayor “must choose between her "immigrant family background" and the Constitution. Her family is from Puerto Rico...US citizens.

Agree with you on the first, agree with Ingraham on the second, the third is both a weird statement and ignorant so that's Ingraham's bad.

The city mayor's have a police force and the governor's have their state national guard. They need to step up and use them to protect their citizens from mobs of rioters and looters.

The mayor doesn't see a need to do any of the things you suggest, and it's her city, not yours. The citizens have told her it's time for the police to shape up and change the way they're doing things, and unlike you and Donald Trump, the mayor is listening to her citizens and THEIR concerns, not denying there is a problem.

She has denied it being a problem since they took it over, you twit.....

The CHAZ is the symptom of the problem, but it is not the problem. No it can't continue, but the CHAZ will continue until the actual problem is addressed in a meaningful way.

THE PEOPLE HAVE VOTED FOR CHANGE TWICE AND NOTHING HAS REALLY CHANGED. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT KEEPS RE-ARRANGING THE DECK CHAIRS ON THE TITANIC WHILE THE SHIP IS STILL SINKING.

CHAZ is a symptom of not stopping a problem before it metastasizes. When the anti-Americans started trouble in Minneapolis, they should have summoned the national guard asking for twice as many troops as protesters, gassing them, beating them when necessary, and sending them all home, to the hospital, or to jail.

They're not the anti-Americans Ray. The Republican Party are NOT the good guys here. They're they originators and operators of the police state.

Yes, they are anti-American because real Americans don't try to change things by burning down cities, assaulting police officers, trying to poison their food, and killing other people. That's the way you do things in the middle of a jungle, not in the most civilized and powerful country in the world.

Here we have a non-violent way of addressing matters. These rioters should move out of the country to one that is lawless like they are.

You are anti-America because Americans do not support using tear gas and the military against peaceful protestors. Real Americans do not hate every group that you can think of. You ignore the fact that Trump supoports lawlessness when it comes to his allies. They are above the law.

Protective agencies use tear gas to push crowds back that are getting out of hand. Yes, I do support it. There is nothing unAmerican about law and order. In fact, we are a country of law and order.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Institutional racism is present in the Republican Party. They have lost the black vote, female vote, Latino vote, Asian vote and every other group you can think of.

You have been duped. "Institutional Racism" is capitalism. They want to destroy the free market. They are communists.

This is way bigger than the two idiot parties constantly at war with each other.

This is an American existential crisis, and we need to rid the world of this threat forever. We MUST crack a few eggs to do so.

.

Capitalism is destroying this country. Big businesses are gaining outsized influence to the detriment of the ordinary people in this country. We need swee4ping anti-trust laws in this country.

Or....you can just move to an anti-capitalist country and save everybody the trouble.

Yep.

Local law enforcement is more than adequately outfitted to the point of militarization, at least that's some of what the protestors are saying, and the states have their national guard troops. If they wanted to stop any of this they could. They don't want the bad optics of those actions undertaken by their order on the 6 o'clock news.

If Trump did step in and, for instance, send in troops, he'd be castigated for it. He was roundly criticized for even the suggestion of calling in troops to quell the riots.

Here in Illinois, our esteemed Governor and Mayor of Chicago publicly said “He should stay out of our business".

In Illinois this is 100% on local government. They told Trump in no uncertain terms to piss off, while they sat and watched it burn.

Similar situation in Seattle, where the dumbass mayor referred to CHOP as "The Summer of Love", then stood back and let these loons do whatever they wanted, only now taking action after, very predictably, things went to total shit. Their bed. They can sleep in it.

Perhaps, but they are creating a political environment for the election. In spite of this all going on in blue cities and states, watch how they try to pass the blame to the President. "Look at all the protests and riots under President Trump!!!!" That's what we're going to hear, if they aren't hearing it already on CNN and like.

Sometimes I think they are allowing the burning down and destruction of their areas for that reason. Every one of these Mayors and Governors know if they call the President for assistance, he will have their cities back to near normal in less than 48 hours. So why don't they? Because it would make them look like the failures they are, and Trump the hero that moved in to save the day.

^Extraordinarily simplistic view of the situation.

It isn't all about tRump no matter how bad you want it to be. Having the feds put on their jackboots and stomp on the protesters would make the situation worse, not better.

 

[Crepitus]

She knows what is going on. These are all very well funded and organized protests and it is totally political. I suggest Trump play this smart, talk to intelligent people who understand the politics of all these protests. These groups have an agenda, and it is to hurt Trump in 2020.

Let THEM be the bad guys. Winning in 2020 is far more important than playing into their hands. Hold those to account whoever who is funding this. If they attack churches, or other places of worship, arrest and charge with hate crimes, go after their funding sources.

As my dad used to say when I was a kid regarding fighting: "they start it, you finish it". Do it methodically and with calculation, because you can be sure as hell that they are.

After a 2020 victory, THEN you go after these Marxist SOB's and their benefactors.

"Alt left" is a republican boogyman with no real existence, like antifa. You guys just needed to "get even" for being labeled alt-right.

How come PROGS are trained so well at projecting? I'm positive it's because you can't defend yourselves. In this case you claim there is no alt-left despite OVERWHELMING evidence of their existence daily. Are you really this fucking dumb, or do you simply hope everyone else is?

You know the thing I described in the post you quoted?

That was a fancy way of saying you conservitards are projecting.

Sorry if I used too many words.

It isn't all about Trump with us, it's all about Trump with your party. Since the Democrats took over the House, the only thing they focused on was trying to get rid of him. Everything with the left is political. If it's not political, they'll find a way to make it political.

There is nothing he can do

What an incredibly stupid thing to say.

Or are you just telling us you're resigned to the fact that tRump is incapable of acting?

You don't have to think it sometimes...this is exactly what they are doing...

Before the riots there were polls showing Trump was over 40% approval in the Black community...... so, in order to change that, the democrats ordered the riots......they were simply waiting for an event and they chose the Floyd killing. They ordered out their antifa and black lives matter terrorist groups in an organized and coordinated attack in the democrat cities they control......

Expect more of this before the election...

If you mean they ordered it through the MSM, then that's absolutely correct. It's the MSM who is pissing on the bee hive.

Oooh!

Conspiracy theories are fun!

The only possible way for Trump to do anything is by using the Insurrection Act, and that has a lot of limitations. Besides, why should the President force help on people that don't want it? If they don't want it, fine with us. Burn down your cities, let the lowlifes take over blocks, invade your police stations and kick out the police Why should our side help yours, especially if you adamantly don't want the help?

If you want the President to take care of the problem, then write or call one of these loser leftist Mayors and tell them to ask the President for help. And tell them they have to use the phrase "Pretty please with sugar on top."
