AMENDMENT TO CURTAIL FEDERAL CRACKDOWN ON PROTESTERS

The amendment would prohibit funds from being used to send federal agents into American cities.

Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York and Ted Lieu of California are proposing an amendment this week that would prohibit funds from being used to send federal agents into American cities as part of Operation Legend or Operation Relentless Pursuit. Those are Justice Department initiatives that have led brutal crackdowns on protesters in cities like Portland, Oregon. While the Trump administration has framed the dispatching of secret police as efforts meant “to help state and local officials fight the surge of violent crime,” critics such as Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden and Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner have called the tactics “fascist.”

Senator Wyden, along with several other Senate Democrats, also pushed for similar amendment in the Senate, sending a letter to their colleagues in the Appropriations Committee on July 24.

The measure, which was filed as an amendment to the upcoming House Appropriations bill, is co-sponsored by Democratic Reps. Rashida Tlaib, of Michigan, Deb Haaland of New Mexico, and Emanuel Cleaver of Missouri. The House Rules Committee is meeting today to decide which of the hundreds of amendments filed will be considered this week.

It sounds like these Federales actually behave better than local PD. The idea that these are "secret police" is overwrought.

Seriously, they should just go home.

I honestly don't even know what they think they're going to accomplish. That they're going to drive the feds away by force? Or by sheer numbers? Not gonna' happen.

Maybe RF can explain what's the plan.

What I WAS watching for was "who was doing what" in the background of all of that blah blah blah, and what I saw was a fairly static situation, with protestors advancing on a police line using green lasers and sometimes fireworks, and Federal officers driving them back with tear gas. There was no running and clubbing, no kettling, and no over-reaction by the Federal officers. They kept their cool for the most part, and even tho people are doing a lot of hand-wringing about how "untrained" they are, they actually seem quite well-trained for the situation, especially under constant provocation.

AFA there being "secret" police, what is happening in Portland doesn't seem to fit the definition. The individuals are wearing unit patches. They aren't wearing nametags for fear of being doxxed.

There is only one person that I know of who claims to have been picked up (Pettibone), and HIS experience was that he was loaded into a van, taken to a location (which turned out to be a courthouse), read his rights, questioned and let go without any charges being recorded.

OH, THE HORROR!

He was READ HIS RIGHTS!
He was QUESTIONED!
How could such a thing happen in America??

/snicker

The worst that even Washington Compost can come up with is that he was "terrifed" bc he thought the Federal officers were right-wing troublemakers. Oh dear! Maybe he needs to go find his "safe space".

REAVERBOT:I wouldn't expect a Russian troll to express any understanding of American patriots fighting fascism.

Quote:

First, let me tell you what it DOESN'T mean:
It doesn't mean dictatorial, authoritarian, tyrannical, oppressive, autocratic, genocidal, racist, sexist, imperialist, warmongering, nationalistic, "Nazi", or any of the other more accurate perjorative terms that you can't seem to find.

Fascism isn't a political system, it's an ECONOMIC one. It is where the state exists to serve large corporations, such as in Italy under Mussolini. Because corporate interests inherently conflict with the population at large, the government is often authoritarian as it seeks to impose (by force) corporate advantage over everyone. Therefore, fascism may require a strong non-democratic leader for its implementation, but that isn't a central feature.

If, for example, near-universal control of the media convinces the populace that corporations are benign and/or necessary, a government can be essentially fascist in a democratic setting.

The ones that were praise of the movie weren't praise of the Joker's motives. They were praise for Phoenix's amazing performance. The movie was exhausting to sit through.

Joker says, "It’s okay, Gary. You can go." It is NOT okay, assuming you're not in thrall to this movie. If the Joker lets Gary go, he will call 911. Before Joker can change cloths, the police will be there. (It would be trivial to fix the scene by having Joker say, "Take a seat, Gary." Then when Joker leaves, the audience doesn't know whether Gary is alive or dead, thus increasing the tension.) Let’s play the next scene, which is famous because of the music, not the acting, Rock N' Roll (Part 2)

The residents are quite safe. The only threats to them are from Trump's Gestapo.

Yup. They're not there to stop the tiny, insignificant amounts of violence in Portland. They're there to create it.

While some federal officers had already been in the streets, we now have additional militarized special ops officers occupying the streets of downtown Portland, bent on inflicting pain and terror on people who believe Black Lives Matter. Federal agents, including those from Trump’s Departments of Homeland Security and Justice, are terrorizing the community, threatening lives, and relentlessly attacking protesters demonstrating against police brutality.

There are those, Trump and Barr among them, who would like to see our freedoms replaced by unflagging obedience to the needs of corporations and billionaires.

There’s something particularly terrifying in the use of Border Patrol agents against American dissidents.

Movie reviewers clearly see it is NOT a comic book movie. There are no super powers, super heroes, physic breaking devices, magic, etc. The Joker movie is a straight forward, realistic "film about rage against the system, society and its casual cruelties and the powerlessness of individuals. It is the rage of the underdog. Surprisingly enough, it is also a film about class rage."
www.moriareviews.com/fantasy/joker-2019.htm

That it sold a $1 billion in tickets to powerless individuals would be expected. Finally, a movie about the underdog biting its cruel master. But I'm on the side of the masters. I want Bruce Wayne to kick that dog, the Joker.

Well, she won second place at a 2007 high school science fair for her project on roundworm longevity. Does that make her an academic? She graduated cum laude (with honors) from Boston College with a degree in International Relations.

Big whooop. I graduated magna cum laude with a double degree in Physics and Chemistry, but that doesn't make me an "academic!" An "academic" is a person who makes their living or their avocation in the field of higher learning.

Trump Re-Tweets Judge Napolitano Op-Ed Calling Deployment of Feds in Portland ‘Unconstitutional’ and ‘Totalitarianism’
https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/trump-re-tweets-judge-napolitano-
op-ed-calling-deployment-of-feds-in-portland-unconstitutional-and-totalitarianism/

President Donald Trump on Wednesday morning posted a series of tweets and re-tweets featuring an array of articles and videos maligning his political opponents and praising his own leadership. But stashed between four re-tweets which originated from Fox Business Network’s Stuart Varney and one from a conservative blogger defending Trump’s pandemic response, Trump also retweeted a Washington Times op-ed which virulently denounced the president’s deployment of federal agents in Portland as “unconstitutional.”

That's 6ix-level stupidity. Wow. Just wow.

Of course, "unconstitutional" and "totalitarian" are good things, in his eyes.

Trump has realized he cannot run against Biden and win. Today he went as far as, to suggest we should delay the election. Since that won't happen his new strategy is to set the stage for claiming the Democrats stole the election. Until the election, he has to change the focus away from the catastrophic job he is doing with the virus. Add to that today’s devastating news our economy contracted by one third in the last month, one third! What a fucking mess!

So, with the republicans blocking continued unemployment payments of 600.00, this September more than likely will go down in history for the most people losing their housing and being homeless, even when compared to the great depression.

Let’s see how JSF tries to spin the state of the current economy in Trumps favor. Or, blame the democrats. And, the other forever Trumpers will feign disappointment while trying to make the case he is the best person for the job. What a fucking joke.

You called AOC "An ... academic". A teacher or scholar in a college or institute of higher learning.

She was never "an academic", award winning or not.

If you had posted that she won an academic award, that would have made more sense.

Even so, her academic award was for a high school science project... not the most amazing lifetime accomplishment ever.

BTW: When you resort to name calling because you've obviously run out of anything relevant to post is when you look desperate.
