Meanwhile, one of the biggest crimes in American history goes unspoken of and unpunished: The George Floyd Riots of 2020.

Big Brother has plans to use the money it confiscates to give to Black Lives Matter.

Apparently it has a cash flow problem.

The money is lining the pockets of those running the SHAKEDOWN faster than it is coming in.

Never mind the 2016 riots when Trump was announced the winner. What happened to the thugs who beat a man in Chicago while screaming at him “You voted Trump”?

Not enough for BLM, of course, since it’s merely in the “thousands”.

“personally profit”

For crying out loud! They will be bankrupted trying to fight FedZilla. They won’t get to keep a dime of what they raised. It will all go to lawyers to try to keep them out of prison for strolling through the capitol grounds.

Biden’s goons are a more like a vindictive police state than like plain old greedy bureaucrats...

AP would term a black rioter, a demonstrator. So it terms a white demonstrator, a rioter.

As all tyrants, Democrats are making sure you know there's a double-standard and there's nothing you can do about it.

Their violence is "speech," your speech is "violence."

The US federal government is organized crime.

Thieves and cutthroats. They bleed us dry, but the sheeple keep voting for these gangsters.

The American government has become as bad, or worse, than that of the former Soviet Union.

“A clawback”?

As if Garland and his buddies owned that money in the first place?

Interesting concept

[...] shows that prosecutors in the more than 1,000 criminal cases from Jan. 6, 2021, are increasingly asking judges to impose fines on top of prison sentences to offset donations from supporters of the Capitol rioters

Can judges legally impose (higher) fines based upon the allegation of a prosecutor that the defendants have been given money from some otherwise uninvolved third party?!

And how can the prosecutors know what monies the defendants have received in their bank accounts, and from whom?! That's private!

Regards,

I have heard even less about those riots.
In fact, you are the first person to bring those violent criminal events up for discussion with me since 2016.
I had forgotten about them, but they shouldn’t be forgotten.

They are not political prisoners but they have no rights granted to other Americans who bow down to the government. Not one court has stood up for their rights for a fair trial or against their unreasonable punishments. Now the government wants their money. Our government has become demons in business suits.
