In the words of Creedence Clearwater Revival, "I see a bad moon rising."
My fear comes from watching a scary alliance taking shape on the far-right.
It begins with President Trump, who is falling farther and farther behind former Vice President Biden, his presumptive Democratic opponent. Biden led Trump by 12 points in a Fox News poll last week.
Feeling political heat, Trump is resorting to dividing and scaring people while posing as the strong man needed to satisfy what he calls the American public's "demand [for] law and order."
Just last week, Facebook took down several Trump campaign ads because they featured a Nazi symbol.
My anxiety goes even higher as white militants, some waving Trump flags, are becoming more public and more violent to people marching for racial justice.
And then there are the rising threats from police unions.
In the face of rising calls for police reform, police unions are now politically aligned with Trump.
In a clear slap at people protesting police brutality, Trump said last week the real problem is that the "police have not been treated fairly."
This rising alliance of Trump, white militants and angry police unions fits with Trump's long expressed desire to have men with guns on his side.
The Trump administration used a mix of several federal police agencies - armed with tear gas and smoke bombs - to disrupt a peaceful protest in Lafayette Square this month, all so Trump could take a campaign-style picture in front of a nearby church.
That brutal use of police power could well be a preview of more ugly conflict around the country as protests, political rallies, conventions and the November election approach.
Biden said he may have to deploy the military or law enforcement to forcibly remove Trump from the White House.

This rising alliance of Fascists, white militants who are so desperate to be relevant they will grovel at the feet of anyone begging to perform social fealty and generally prostrate themselves before a bunch of whiners and attack police unions, demanding they are defunded fits with Wrong Williams long expressed desire to have the grievances of his people heard, while they rest of continue to write checks for their lack of ambition.

No one is in your way...
Dim witted negro.
Is this the Babylon bee?
Juan Williams continues as a pathetic loser on the outside looking in . I believe that he realizes how confused he is and how absolutely worthless his ideas are. His predicament is that while he desires to end his existence, he is not strong enough to do so .
Whatever news I get on TV usually has a least a half hour delay on DVR so I can blow past the commercials.
Anytime Juan Williams is on I just automatically fast forward past him yakking. Its just party line crap especially on The Five.
The only time he ever stated a sincere opinion was back when Obama shut down the WDC charter schools.
He almost had a tear in his eye as he noted his kids had all been private schooled and felt the loss these parents were experiencing.
Bless his heart.
Juan truly lives in a TOTAL alternative universe. Everything he claims is absolutely the opposite.
Is he that stupid/evil? Can ANYONE be that stupid/evil?
Or, it’s just that Juan knows he’s getting paid big bucks to promote the Hate Trump point of view; he has to deliver in order to get paid.
In any case, what a tiresome, loathsome @ss.
Williams is a complete moron. He’s never right about anything. Guess he’s the token schwarzer for Faux News.
“It begins with President Trump, who is falling farther and farther behind former Vice President Biden, his presumptive Democratic opponent. Biden led Trump by 12 points in a Fox News poll last week.”
Fox News polls are almost as accurate as a $2 Rolex.
What is amazing: Juan has 2, I think, staunch conservative sons... It must drive him bat-s*** crazy that they reject his core beliefs.
“He gets paid to be a lefty.”
In filthy capitalist dollars!!? I am shocked, shocked!
I thought progressives like Juan never touch the stuff!
Juan Williams is PROOF that Affirmative Action exists. That POS needs his dumb @$$ beat like a John Bonham drum solo.
There is only one problem.. PEOPLE HAVE EYEBALLS.
Total trash. Trump is almost as much of a wuss a GWB, so they know they can get away with this.
What's so surprising ? FReepers are just now realizing it? He's been doing this for a long time. He's harmless. He just delivers the democRATic party line.
I've always called him the king of the furrowed brow.
What a bafoon. And why would somebody post that crap? I doubt freepers give a crap about what juan williams says.
