De Blasio blames chaos on anarchists with ‘explicit agenda of violence’
New York Post ^ | May 31, 2020 | Lee Brown

Mayor Bill de Blasio on Sunday blamed a new breed of highly organized anarchist hell-bent on violence for violent protests that have rocked the city.

“We’re seeing something new, and not just here in New York City, but all over the country,” Hizzoner said of the violence.

The “x-factor,” he said, were groups who were “not just protesters but people who came to do violence in a systematic, organized fashion.”

He called the “small” number of people “well-organized” and linked to “the anarchist movement,” rather than really mourning George Floyd’s death.

“They plan together online, they have very explicit rules,” he said...

“well-organized” and linked to “the anarchist movement,”

In other words:

They are Proud Progressive Liberal Democrats

Breaking up Swimming, funerals, or a death (not even a child gunned down in a vengeful drive) has no bearing on this anarchist moment of opportunity whatsoever. Pelosi opened her fly hole and let it be unequivocally known which side she leans toward.

These “anarchists” are the same people - Antifa and their ilk - who have been terrorizing conservatives for several years with scarcely a word of protest from De Blasio, Democratic politicians in general, or the media.

Coordinated and directed violence across multiple state lines using electronic communication. Sounds like “collusion”, “terrorism”, “racketeering” to me. If only we had an FBI.

I’m not in the least buying into the narrative this is only about these groups.....not when I see other rioters cheering them on....and those not from these groups doing damage along with them.....worse....nobody tried to stop any one in the crowds. Dancing around a flaming building does not make you innocent.

Has there ever been a more despised politician? He unites the right and the left.

I think he’s genuinely bothered by the fact that the person charged with attempted murder for firebombing a police car was a white girl who lives 100 miles away from New York City.

“I think someone is advising de Blasio not to be on the wrong side of this.”

80 percent of eligible voters didn’t bother to vote in DeBlasios election. Someone may have figured out that THEY are starting to wake up...

I guess he can’t deny that Antifa exists so he is minimizing them. Spin it to where they are just a few well-organized extremists who have nothing to do with the Democrat Party.

Yep. This is Antifa’s Tet Offensive. They were ready to go. Not that they have anything better to do.

It would be good if Barr targets the Soros leadership network, funding and Obama/Holder’s NGOs. They should charged with any riot related murders.

Behold, the results of electing Democrats, don’t it make you feel all warm and fuzzy! You don’t need a gun, the police will protect you if the Mayor allows it, or at least make sure you body gets to the morgue

It wouldn't surprise me one bit to discover that the Deep State (FBI/CIA) are behind some of this as an extension of the "INSURANCE POLICY" coup attempt

It was going on un-checked even when Obama was in. I find it hard to believe the FBI is powerless to stop these community organizers

What time is it? It's that one minute of the day when De Blasio is right for a change.

Warren Wilhelm said it? I guess the "white supremacist" lie became untenable, eh?

Hey Deblasio- you and your socialist ilk wanted a Somalia-like situation here in the US- well now you have it- This is your city- YOU are responsible for opposing your own police force- YOU are responsible for tying their hands- YOU are responsible for letting violent criminals go while you turn around and arrest law abiding citizens for violating some EO-

YOU and your ilk are responsible for this- Do something or resign!

” It’s that one minute of the day when De Blasio is right for a change. “

leftist govs and mayors across our nation are railing against the riots because they know it’s hurting their black constituency (it is) and helping the Pubs (that too), and they also know that the riots are being instigated by and led by professional outside agitators such as ANTIFA who are mostly white ...
