Yet you NEVER read, listen or watch MSM.

You can not have psychological warfare when you are unarmed.


Also, the NYP is owned by Murdoch who is directly responsible for the disinformation campaign and just as as responsible for the terrorism that took place yesterday.

MAGA/QAnon/white supremacists had been organising this for some time and is documented on online chatter (https://www.bellingcat.com/news/america ... ngton-d-c/) - furthermore, these individuals were literally live streaming themselves on Parler conducting the terrorism!

I mean, given that Trump invited these folks to Washington, spoke at their event, offered to walk them to the Capitol and praised them strongly afterwards, if they were actually Antifa, then Trumpy is one dumb-arse ****.

So, after your 'simple browsing' has not yielded anything which supports your claim, do you still think that Antifa are behind the protests?

Or do you think it more likely that the vast majority of rioters yesterday were Trump supporters?

The attempts at re-writing history begin:

Texas Senator Ted Cruz has given an interview to US media, distancing himself from the President. "The President's language and rhetoric often goes too far. I think, yesterday in particular, the President's language and rhetoric crossed the line and it was reckless," Cruz said.

“I disagree with it, and I have disagreed with the president's language and rhetoric for the last four years,” he said.

You still missed my two little words ' IF TRUE " I supply the story you can come to your own conclusion.


Any how from what i have been reading apart from the unfortunate 4 deaths it was one of the most peaceful protests ever compared to the rioting looting burning of various cities in 2020 by ANTIFA BLM and all the other nutters which resulted up to 2 BILLION Dollars of damage and citizens livelihoods destroyed

CNN covered those riots for a whole year as peaceful protests so was this also a peaceful protest :lol:

Spot on Stan spineless cowards cos they now realise they all have to get back into that happy elite club to enable themselves to put their long snouts into that big deep trough and feed on those lovely truffles in Washington or is it the Swamp ?????

The best politicians for me are those that hang high with a noose around their necks. :D

You remind me of Oscar Wilde's cynic - someone who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.

Yeah, what a cop out Apache.

You're usually full of thoughts on a whole range of matters, but you're never able to provide answers when you realise you've screwed up.

I'll ask you again: After reading various articles from different sources, which is apparently what you do, do you think that the bulk of demonstrators yesterday in Washington were a) Trump supporters or b) Antifa?
