The mainstream media and the left constantly preach the narrative that President Trump and his supporters are dividing America but Monica Showalter of the American Thinker reports one must look to the far left to find the source of division.
Showalter says that Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar supports the agenda of the anti-American alleged pro-terrorist group Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). It is Omar who asked for “compassion” and a “restorative approach to justice” for nine “Minnesota Men” from her district who were prosecuted for “opting to join ISIS.”
And then there’s Antifa, the so-called Anti-Fascist group that is violently Fascist. They “unite” Americans by wearing masks as they brandish weapons and they threaten and beat up pro-Trump bystanders.
Amazingly, the mayors of the liberal cities where Antifa operates with impunity often order their police to stand down and refuse to protect Trump supporters or arrest their attackers.
Powerline’s John Hinderaker reports that Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison openly supports Antifa, “whose principle tactics include aggravated assault, arson, and malicious destruction of property.”
Sen. Ted Cruz has called on the Department of Justice for legal action against Antifa thugs who perpetrate violence and Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler for ordering the police of his city to “stand down” during the attack on conservative social media journalist Andy Ngo.
