Attorney General Bill Barr says Antifa members are 'flying around the country' instigating riots and calls them 'the ramrod for the violence'
Daily Mail ^ | 3 September 2020 | Keith Griffith

Attorney General William Barr on Wednesday said the Justice Department was monitoring the far-left movement Antifa, saying that it is at the heart of violence in cities around the country.

'I've talked to every police chief in every city where there has been major violence and they all have identified Antifa as the ramrod for the violence,' Barr said in an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer.

'They are flying around the country. We know people who are flying around the country,' he said.

'We see some of the purchases they are making before the riots of weapons to use in those riots,' Barr added. 'So, we are following them.'

Antifa is a radical movement comprised of different sub-groups, of all which hold anti-capitalist and anti-authoritarian views, and aim to confront those whom they view as racist.

In a Fox News interview late on Monday, Trump made cryptic claims about armed thugs he said had boarded an airplane seeking trouble. Asked for details, Trump said: 'I'll tell you sometime, but it's under investigation right now.'

These are not “protesters” and it is not “unrest”. These are the mercenary shock troops of a revolution attempt.

Not just yet. There’s an election to be won and the more these varmints burn and break things the the bigger the victory for Trump. Afterwards light em up.

Let's get Trey Gowdy to call them out on this. Maybe Lindsey Graham would write them a strongly worded letter asking them to knock it off.

Interesting note, Biden uses the word “ramrod” a LOT. Not exactly a common word...

Yep, the word ramrod is ‘bendover’ vocabulary.

Joe wants the electorate to be his victim.

Sooooo....

If you see something, say something.

Looks like Attorney General Barr has adopted the policy: Wait, wait, and wait some more.

Even if the DOJ/FBI gather a file, it will be redacted or lost. /s

Could you imagine what this country would look like if nearly every member of the Republican party totally ignored what's happening on our streets? My goodness, we'd have anarchy!

He's been pretty busy with Durham and Huber in their investigation of Hillary's missing emails, or something like that.

Apparently “so what?”

true! My kid has a side gig as a server in Alexandria Va.
Last weekend she served a table of agitators from Chicago twice, dinner and then brunch ( remember when the protesters said brunch was a white construct?) the next day.
She said the men were nice, they all reeked of weed, the white girl with them looked disheveled.
They did ask if it was a black owned restaurant, but did not do anything untoward when she said she did not think so.
But they were not locals and there to join in the protests.
