"The department was established to protect America from the ever-present threat of global terrorism. It was not established to be the president’s personal militia," Ridge said, alluding to the department's creation after the 9/11 attacks. Ridge did say he would "welcome the opportunity to work with any federal agency to reduce crime or lawlessness in the cities" if he were governor. But "it would be a cold day in hell before I would consent to an uninvited, unilateral intervention into one of my cities," he added, specifically calling out how the federal authorities were unwelcome in Portland.

“””Remember this is the same idiot who was offended by nude statues and asked for them to be covered. Fn moron”””
That was John Ashcroft.
They’re destroying federal property you incompetent hack.
What’s the point of “homeland security” when the cities and states have abdicated their responsibilities to THE people most of whom are scared witless in their homes from the frothing communist mobs!!!
You want to run for Democrat office as a RINO then BE MY GUEST - they can use the help right now.
But as for me and my kind - we’re voting Trump and about to go medieval on your butts if you people don’t get your butts in gear and start defending the constitution and the Republic.
Excellent analogy.
I know. I saw the tweet today and I went to youtube to get the exact quote, because Trump doesn’t attack people out of the blue for no reason. Then I heard him say “president’s personal militia”. That one little phrase was so revealing. You just know that these people detest, they loathe, they absolutely hate Trump’s guts — and they are all voting for Biden in November.
Another article by a very stupid person who does not realize that we are experiencing global terrorism.
Antifa is a global terror group. Its origins are European and in European communism.
Add to that the destruction of federal buildings and you have every reason to send federal law enforcement to the scene.
There’s not been a time Tom Ridge wasn’t a jerk.
Think that was the AG then, not Ridge
Those Bush worms have been hiding under a log for a long time. They emerge every now and then, just another resident of globalist Bush's insect farm.
Ol’ Tommy needs to look up the definition of “terrorism”.
Oh,boy....another book!
Oh so he interprets Trump protecting cities from violent revolutionaries as Trump’s personal militia. Bias is he? What a pompous idiot.
I wonder what he has to say about Barry the Muslim and his Secret Police, the FBI Crime Family??
We really should start deporting these quislings to Syria.
Does he not realize his remarks only throws more fuel on the fire. Oh! Of course he does. Silly me.
The Bush family - the gift that keeps on giving.
Spoken like a the truly committed DC globalist establishment puke that he is
Sing us a tune Tom
Since re-entering the private sector, Ridge has served on the boards of The Home Depot, The Hershey Company and Exelon Corporation and as a senior advisor to Deloitte & Touche, and TechRadium. Ridge is also the founder and CEO of Ridge Global, LLC, a Washington, D.C.-based security consulting firm. Ridge spent time campaigning with Senator John McCain during his 2008 bid for the presidency and was believed by some to have been on the short list of potential running mates.[2][3]
Thank you and go to hell Tom Ridge.
Tom Ridge is a lamentable dope. The Bush League Republicans saw him as real presidential timber. That says a lot about those people.
