Democrat Rep. Haaland: Antifa Are ‘Peaceful Protesters’ Trying To Protect Portland From ‘Terrorism’
The Daily Wire ^ | August 19, 2019 | Ryan Saavedra

Posted on 08/19/2019 7:03:36 PM PDT by Republican Wildcat

Democrat Rep. Debra Haaland (NM) proclaimed on Sunday that far-left extremist group Antifa consists of "peaceful protesters" who are just trying to protect Portland from "domestic terrorism." ...

"It's not surprising that Trump would side away from the folks who are the peaceful protesters working to safeguard their city from domestic terrorism," Haaland continued. "Just not surprised at all that the president sides with the white nationalists. That's been his mode of operation since before he was elected president."

Haaland seemed unaware of the fact that a self-described member of Antifa carried out a domestic terror attack against an ICE facility in Tacoma, Washington, in July. A Seattle-based Antifa group celebrated the domestic terrorist as "a martyr who gave his life to the struggle against fascism." Earlier this month, a man who appeared to be a supporter of Antifa shot 36 people in Dayton, Ohio.

Haaland's remarks about Trump supposedly "siding" with white nationalists and white supremacists come despite Trump repeatedly condemning both white nationalists and white supremacists.

Antifa “protecting” Portland from domestic terrorism? Is that like the Mafia strong-arming small businesses in its territory for cash to “protect” them from thugs?

Also, I am really curious where all of these supposed white supremacists are. I’ve never seen one. Has anyone else seen one? (Yes, I know: “white supremacist” is the new leftist dog whistle since “racist” has been so overused.)

Always remember, if you are white and love America, you are a white nationalist.

Tell you what, Deb, we’ll buy you a MAGA hat. You go there. No signs. No entourage. No photo op. Offer to shake their hands. Then come back and talk to us.

THese idiots protect nothing. THey would run the other way if the German Nazis invaded, nay, they would collaborate with them and call us names and chant antiwar and peace slogans against us fighting the Nazis. THey are a bunch of cowards.

THat competing harms argument does not fly.
