Are leftists targeting black conservatives?
American Thinker ^ | 26 Jul, 2020 | Andrea Widburg

Recent news brought two alarming stories. In Milwaukee, an unknown person shot and killed Bernell Trammell, a black Trump supporter. In Portland, an Antifa member attempted to kill Andrew Duncomb, aka “Black Rebel,” a black conservative. Since we currently don’t know who shot Trammell, we can’t say with certainty that his murder was tied to his politics. Nevertheless, the fact that two black conservatives were targeted over two days is deeply troubling.

Bernell Trammell owned a business called eXpressions Journal in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He had covered the business with signs supporting President Trump. On Thursday morning, he gave a video interview explaining his support for Trump:

To Trammell, Trump was a “sign of the times.” That is, Trump’s actions were in keeping with prophetic signs and blacks needed to pay attention.

Trammell believed that the first example of Trump’s prophetic nature was his decision to do something no president has ever done, which was to hire an African-American woman to work closely with him. (That would be Omarosa Manigault Newman, who repaid Trump with ingratitude.) Trammell also felt strongly that Trump had distinguished himself by sitting down and really talking to African-Americans.

Just a few hours after giving that interview, an unknown person shot Trammell to death. Because Trammell was a well-known Trump supporter, the Republican Party of Wisconsin asked the U.S. attorney to look into the murder:

“Because of Trammell’s well-known political activism and the possibility that his murder could be politically motivated, I respectfully request that United States Attorney Matthew Krueger open an investigation,” said Andrew Hitt, chairman of the Republican Party of Wisconsin, late Friday.

The white Democrat establishment has only hurt black communities since the 1950’s. Only the community itself is equipped to help restore a thriving community and address needs and solutions.Obama was a failure because he never committed to helping he had the establishment agenda to make his global peers rich first.

Does anyone think any of these carefully planned, well coordinated, well targeted attacks and acts of anarchy, destruction and chaos are random acts?
There is zero probability of that. The determined acts of insurrection have been carefully planned by a secret cabal of evil men and women, led by Soros, John Brennan, Obama, Hilary Clinton, Susan Rice etc.
It's almost like watching a James Bond movie. Only its happening right before our eyes.
So far all we are doing is being reactive (or not) .
The Trump administration need to be proactive, infiltrate this secret society and destroy the evil masterminds behind it.
The only trouble is, the FBI and Wray, who should lead such an effort, are probably part of this secret cabal who are out to destroy and then take over the country with Dementia Joe as a figurehead.

Yes, a lot of this desperation is driven by the very real reality of Blexit.

“Steve Scalise will tell you they definitely targeted Republican Congressmen.”

On no they didn’t, according to “the world’s foremost law enforcement agency,” the illustrious FBI, that concluded the attack on Scalise and the other Republican Representatives was “not terrorism.”

Absolutely; there’s no other reasonable explanation for why the FBI concluded the near-fatal attack on Scalise was NOT terrorism.
