Trump: Protesters are 'organized groups' that 'have nothing to do with George Floyd'
Washington Examiner ^ | May 30, 2020 10:48 AM | Mike Brest

President Trump alleged that the protesters that have taken to the streets in dozens of cities across the country are "organized groups" and have no connection to those mourning the death of George Floyd.

Protests have raged across the country for the last four nights in response to the death of Floyd, a black man who died in police custody on Monday.

"These are 'Organized Groups' that have nothing to do with George Floyd," Trump tweeted Saturday morning. "Sad!"

These are “Organized Groups” that have nothing to do with George Floyd. Sad!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 30, 2020 "The professionally managed so-called 'protesters' at the White House had little to do with the memory of George Floyd," he said in a tweet moments before. "They were just there to cause trouble. The [Secret Service] handled them easily. Tonight, I understand, is MAGA NIGHT AT THE WHITE HOUSE???"

Protests took place outside the White House on Friday night and into Saturday morning, leading to Secret Service members using riot gear to protect themselves. Earlier in the evening, the White House was placed on lockdown after protesters knocked down barricades in front of the complex. The lockdown was lifted after the scene had calmed down.

Floyd died after white Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin restrained him by placing his knee on his neck for nearly nine minutes on Monday.

Chauvin and three other officers involved in Floyd's detainment were fired on Tuesday. Chauvin was taken into custody on Friday and charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter.

Arresting Soros and stopping his myriad of financial tentacles would go a long way.

This is ALWAYS the case. As a cop I worked anti-nuke “rallies” in front of the U N and talking to the “protesters” would always reveal that most of them had never heard of the words Nagasaki or Hiroshima. It has always been, “You show up at my rally and I’ll show up at your rally.”

We know it, Trump knows it. Why not say it? Call that evil prick out at every opportunity or covertly take him off the board it’s time to end him.

An organized group trying to overthrow our legal government has some bad names. And we should oppose such groups.

Will the average American catch up to FR? Or stay asleep and voting Dem?

It was great to see Black Leaders come out and cite the fact that it is the outside groups fomenting the violence. (ANTIFA)

Not sure. Frankly, we, nor anyone else, needs to be knowing this now anyway.

In the videos of virtually all of these ‘spontaneous protests’, there appear masked whiteys who seem coordinated and well prepared in the background instigating things.

Stay Tuned America.....The real story of this riot gig will surface quickly. IMHO...the whole gig from start to finish, moved way too fast across the nation. You will soon find pout the evil criminal hands of Obama and Soros put this act together. This my fellow American was pa planned and coordinated gig of destruction just waiting for an incident to kick it off.

Three cops and the fourth one kneeling on an innocent’s neck, and, none of the officers did anything to the killer!!! Ya gotta be kidding me!!! Remember the Democrat Party motto, “Never let a good crisis or murder go to waste”!!!

They said on Fox this morning that he was in the white house while the protests were going on last night, and he is there today. Don’t know for sure.

So even the Timid Tim the “governor” of Minnehaha, the State of Submission, admits that the rioters are out of staters.

IOW they crossed state lines to commit felonies.

Might be me but isn’t that a line that Chrissy Wray is supposed to be worried about them crossing?

Meanwhile, back in DeeCee, a rogue Federal Judge is still trying to imprison a retired Lt. General for standing up to a frame attempt by the alleged Federal Bureau of Investigation, and another rogue Federal Judge just rubber stamped her own Kangaroo Court decision based on an absurdly biased jury so that yet one more Republican can be imprisoned for something thousands of times less destructive then what thousands of thugs are doing on the streets of America today.

And Chrissy twiddles his thumbs and looks bored.

My interest is only “in” or “away” during last night’s assault on the WH.

Something should have been done about Soros 15 years ago. When good men do nothing...

I was just watching Chris briefings from Minnesota. the governor and the mayor and the police chief was there too.

Anyway one of them said that 80% of the people who have been arrested so far in the rioting in Minnesota were from out of town. ,

This begs a lot of questions as far as who in the heck is organizing and probably paying people to travel to Minneapolis to start a riot.

I mention these officials in Minnesota because Trump is saying basically the same thing that they were saying. So if any liberals jump all over Trump for saying this, we can counter that by saying good Democrats in Minnesota are saying the same thing; that Outsiders are coming in to hijack protests and start riots.

“...a rogue Federal Judge...”

Just another Deep State rioter [mostly figurative looting, arson, assault].

I was at Downtown Oakland protests a little while ago. Let me say something; the people breaking glass, breaking into windows & starting fires were WHITE men wearing all black. They had hammers and walkie talkies. They were organized. BLM protestors did not start the violence!
