House Democrats block resolution condemning rioting and looting

House Democrats made it clear on Thursday whose side they’re really on -- and the American people need to remember it in November.

A resolution introduced by Republican Rep. Greg Steube of Florida that went down in defeat on Thursday condemned the rioting and looting that followed the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May and failed to attract a single Democratic vote in support, according to the Washington Free Beacon.

And the ones who won election in 2018 by presenting themselves as some kind of responsible alternative to the #Resistance-crazed progressives who flooded the streets in response to Trump’s election in 2016 are going to have to face their own voters as representatives of a party that can't bring itself to condemn riots.

Every voter who has been awake for the past month, watching rampant looting in the country’s great cities, watching mobs tear down statues of national heroes, and listening to an endless drumbeat of liberal politicians and the mainstream media paint American police officers as some sort of hostile occupation force needs to keep this in mind.

Well heck no. It might 'unjustly' condemn some innocent peaceful PROtesters. I mean "What other choice do 'they' have?" Besides, if America would simply "give 'them' what 'they' want. the system won't get burned down." IOW-Trump gotta go. NOT!

The real problem is that there is a large and growing segment of the population who are excited and support what they have seen unfolding in our country. There are also those who are now pumping millions of dollars into the effort. How many corporations are supporting this with the money we spend for their products?

This sympathy for the terrorists is long standing policy for the Democrats.
Saying to the American People that destruction of private property is o.k. displays the contempt they have for Ownership. “Property is Theft”
Expropriate the Expropriators, on and on and on.

“...That shows who is supporting/advocating/encouraging/funding the riots/looting....”

They’re doing more than “supporting/advocating”, they’re outright funding it. It’s their “Plan C”.
“Plan A” (impeachment) FAIL
“Plan B” (colluded w/CCP virus) FAIL
“Plan C” (Riots & mayhem” It, too, will FAIL
A whole bunch of those evil SOBs need to be publicly hanged for this. They can’t win an up & up, fair election based on the issues so they resort to this kind of crap. Yeah. Hangin’ is way too good for em....murderous POSs.

And yet, none of the cabal that fails to punish them is willing to leave their stuff open and available. How’s that work? I know, rhetorical.

No surprise here. They are now out in the open about wanting to bring America down and half the population is cheering for it.

Time to do more reloading.

The Democrats control the mobs. Of course if Biden is elected they will “call off the dogs”.

The cabal is not the target.
Those that would reject Collectivism, like Small Business, is on the block for destruction. Corporations that donate to causes that oppose Leftism are among those to be ‘Cancelled’.
They’re not going away now that they’re inside the gates.
They smell blood in the water when given the ‘Dane-geld’

Not wanting to burn down the dem stronghold cities is now “racist.”

The dems aren’t just nihilists, they’re certifiably insane, and will burn this country down, if only they get to rule over the ashes.

Things are going to get a lot worse before they get better if the adults don’t step up to the table.

House Democrats have been making it clear for years whose side they’re really on

and it isn't for anything but their own agenda to resist, create chaos, and obstruct

everything in Congress, Pres. Trump and the American people.
