CNN boosts Van Jones' "perspective" especially at/after last night's debate between Mike Pence and Kamala Harris. In addition to his anti Trumpism...

Mike Pence, the no. 3 Republican in the House, is calling on Obama green jobs czar Van Jones to resign.

The Black Lives Matter political group has been part of the political scene for seven years, but has taken on a new prominence since May, when protests seemingly everywhere began devolving into riots, and it appeared the group owned America’s streets, sports leagues and corporate boardrooms. The group was founded in 2013, long before George Floyd died while in police custody in Minneapolis on Memorial Day. But it had rarely been perceived as a serious movement. That all changed over the summer, when television screens across the country became filled with demonstrations that turned violent, targeting police forces, government buildings and even statues saluting...

FBI Director Christopher Wray described Antifa as "a real thing" during a hearing Thursday on Capitol Hill, noting that the bureau has open cases against individuals who self-identify as anti-fascist activists. Wray, who was testifying before the House Homeland Security Committee as part of its Worldwide Threat hearing, was responded to questions about the level of threat the movement poses.
