Trump’s J6 Pardons Signal The End Of The War On Wrongthink

The Capitol riot fueled the war on wrongthink. Clemency for Capitol rioters should represent the start of the end of that war.

Heavier police presence at ABORTION marches than on January 6? Guerrilla reporter tells all



As the Trump administration begins making serious moves, the chance of violent leftist-run protests is going up.

Richie McGinniss — a guerrilla reporter and author of “Riot Diet,” who’s been on the ground at riots from the Jacob Blake riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin, to the left's favorite January 6 Capitol riot — knows exactly how to prepare for the chaos.

“After Kenosha, Glenn Beck bought me this bulletproof backpack, which is now my safety blanket,” McGinnis tells Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight,” recounting his experience at the January 6 protest. “I had my bulletproof vest and my ballistic helmet and my gas mask, and I arrived on the western front just before 2 p.m.”

“My credentials got swiped because I was so well-prepared, they assumed I had to be some scurrilous agitator,” he continues, noting that upon his arrival, he had some serious questions.


“How come there’s only 140 Capitol police officers defending this line with 10,000 people behind me?” he asks. “It just made no sense why D.C., a place where the cops are prepared, unlike Kenosha, where the cops actually know how to deal with these protests.”

“I’ve seen abortion marches with more police presence and a better perimeter around the Capitol than what I saw on January 6,” he continues, explaining that now that Trump’s in office, he should make getting to the bottom of what really happened that day a serious priority.

“I want to see an investigation into who was making the decisions for what security should be there. Obviously, the head of the Capitol police retired immediately afterward, resigned immediately afterwards, and there’s still a lot of open-ended questions as far as who made the decisions for that perimeter to be set up,” he adds.

'My Grandfather Min. Farrakhan': Black Lives Matter Hires Louis Farrakhan Devotee for Senior Role

A devotee of anti-Semitic Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan secured a senior role at Black Lives Matter Grassroots to lead "special projects" for the group as it prepares to resist President-elect Donald Trump’s second term.

Black Lives Matter Grassroots announced in a New Year's message to its supporters on Thursday that it hired Yonasda Lonewolf, a rapper and activist with close ties to Farrakhan, as a "special projects specialist" to help the group as it works to "claim victory over the white-supremacist systems designed to kill our people." Black Lives Matter Grassroots said in the message it would enter 2025 with "the revolutionary spirit of our Haitian forebears" and featured an image of Haitian revolutionaries in the early 1800s lynching French military officers.

Businesses board up their windows in heavily Democratic cities ahead of Election Day



Heavily Democratic cities are now in the habit of boarding up windows and shuttering businesses ahead of political events that might upset local leftists.

That is certainly the case with Washington, D.C., which erected "Black Lives Matter"-branded plywood boards and fencing outside of stores ahead of the 2020 election and saw businesses brace for chaos again when Roe v. Wade was overturned. Some businesses in the city also took precautions ahead of the January 2017 anti-Trump riots, where all the rioters ultimately got off scot-free, as well as ahead of the Jan. 6, 2021, protests, where rioters were held to a different standard.

Possibly anticipating more chaos in the District of Columbia, where 92.1% of the vote in the last presidential election went to Joe Biden, businesses are once again reinforcing their windows and preparing for potentially "fiery but mostly peaceful protests."

Resident Stacy Snyder told WJLA-TV, "Hopefully no riots. Nobody wants to see anyone get hurt or any damage. After what happened last time, I guess, you have to be prepared for anything. So, like I said, better safe than sorry."

Ebony Boger, who works downtown, indicated she recently received an email from building management indicating it was going to fortify the exterior.

"It's not shocking. I'm kind of used to it. I think they should do it," said Boger.

The managers of various buildings confirmed to WJLA that the election was the reason behind the plywood reinforcement.

According to the Washington Post, some business and property owners have also boosted their private security in anticipation of possible riots and looting.

'If people choose to riot, I feel like we need to listen to the people.'

Leon Beresford, executive vice president of Admiral Security Services, indicated that his company, which provides security to 150 commercial office buildings in D.C., is mobilizing around 2,000 guards in time for Election Day.

"People would rather be overprepared and have nothing happen, as opposed to the alternative," said Eric Jones, vice president of government affairs for the Apartment and Office Building Association of Metropolitan Washington.

Washington Metropolitan Police Department Chief Pamela A. Smith said at a press conference last week, "I want to be very clear: We will not tolerate any violence of any kind. We will not tolerate any riots. We will not tolerate the destruction of property. We will not tolerate any unlawful behavior. Offenders will be arrested and will be held accountable."

Smith indicated that well over 3,000 police officers will be working 12-hour shifts through the election.

Storefronts in Portland, Oregon — another heavily Democratic city — have similarly disappeared behind protective boards. While big-name businesses like Chase Bank have reinforced their establishments, some have alternatively chosen to trust the mob.

Katherine Morgan, the owner of the relatively new Grand Gestures Books, told KATU-TV, "When I got the business, the windows were boarded up because of the protest, and they just never came down. For me, if people choose to riot, I feel like we need to listen to the people."

Morgan indicated she won't be boarding up her establishment, noting, "I'm someone who believes in protesting, I'm someone who believes in doing whatever you can for your voice to be heard."

Real estate developer Jordan Schnitzer told the Oregonian he is praying his building will go unscathed.

"If your sports team loses, do you go out and break windows?" said Schnitzer. "In this day and age to see that this type of behavior in America is so commonplace is heartbreaking."

Portland Police Chief Bob Day said last week, "We never can eliminate risk, but the confidence that I have in our community, the confidence I have in our law enforcement response, I'm really hopeful that that's not going to be necessary."
