Antifa planned anti-government insurgency for months, law enforcement official says
The Washington Times ^ | June 3, 2020 | Bill Gertz

Activists of the far-left Antifa movement began planning to foment a nationwide anti-government insurgency as early as November as the U.S. presidential campaign season kicked off in earnest, according to a law enforcement official with access to intelligence behind the shadowy group.

.
“Their Marxist ideology seeks not only to influence elections in the short term but to destroy the use of elections as the determining factor in political legitimacy.”

Added Joe Myers, a former Defense Intelligence Agency official and counterinsurgency expert, “President Trump’s election and revitalization of America are a threat to Antifa’s nihilist goals.

“Imagine being so narrow minded and foolish to think you, a bunch of skinny little kids who are all White Privileged, mostly living at home with their parents at 25, have these vision of grandeur that they are this driving force that has the only truth to life.”

That gets you Cambodia.

And they’re coming.

Best get ready.

Obviously planned months, if not years, in advance. But I think they blew it. Better timing from the Antifa perspective would have been closer to the election. But the white cop and the black victim at that time proved too juicy for them to wait. Going to be much more difficult to pull this off again after PDJT has seen their tactics.

“Just because you control the cities you don’t control the country.”

I agree. There are just thousands of protesters. 330 million people in the country. They may influence some votes. But not going to create a revolution. Trump has the military.

“...then WTF do we have a Homeland Security Department? ...”

Why, they’ve been busy monitoring you, me, how much ammo we buy, what books we read, etc., etc., of course!!!

Because we Americans are the threat, see?

And let’s not forget the fact that our “Premiere Internal Security Agency” was way, way too busy trying to sabotage a sitting President instead of tracking down an actual threat to our Citizenry.

No /s tag needed. I’m pissed.

My theory has been was the protests, er, riots were localized to MPLS for several days...until the cuck mayor gave up a police station. It seems that after that happened it spread.

By showing weakness in MPLS it gave the green light for Antifa to start in other cities. If they had stopped in in MPLS, it would have spread at a much slower and less violent rate.

Yeah...Nov 2016.

Floyd died on 5/25 and the riots started within days.

Ready and waiting for a trigger.

Meanwhile nary a peep about the murders of Paul and Lidia Marino, Rose Cook or Leslie Bakr.

Male negroes seem to like to murder elderly Whites, especially women.

“The deep state is afraid President Trump will federalize the National Guard.”

Maybe, or possibly they want him to do that, so that any deaths or screwups would be Trumps fault and not the governors and mayors and cops.

Then they can run another impeachment prior to the election.

The US used to know how to handle anarchists in the US. What has happened to us!

Back when the intelligence community was doing it’s job, they would’ve had infiltrators in these anarchist groups. Now, they ignore them. Or use them.

BLM and Antifada coordinated protests of the Trump innauguration.

Notice the same tactics and participants of the Occupy movement?

It’s a political rally dancing on a dead man’s grave for personal gain and power.

How much money and messaging from China is there in this? They have tens of billions in slush funds to cause unrest

Right. No /s tag needed.

Basically, what we’ve learned over the last three years is that not a single Federal agency does a damned thing. They go to work, watch porn, do lunch, have affairs, sabotage this president, and spy on decent people.

Tracking down, and spying on, actual terrorists would be really, really haaard, and might require some initiative. However pissed you are, I might be that X10.

Those lazy-ass incompetent slugs have let this happen, and look where we are!!

Antifa and BLM and the left-wing media, along with their democratic party supporters....

All know that, what Trump has done to their political agenda, will take many years to undo...

And so....

They have been and will be doing anything possible to undo the president’s presidency, including damaging his chances in November.

What took the democrats decades to accomplish, Trump has undone in less than a single presidential term. Thus, they want to stop Trump NOW in order to prevent long-lasting damage to their socialist/communist/liberal/progressive agenda.

A wounded tiger is very dangerous. Democrats and their Antifa and BLM and the left-wing media, are very wounded right now. Trump needs four more years to finish them off, and that’s what the democrats are so fearful about.

ANTIFA is here to stay. Long-term

Just start convicting and executing them....let them watch.

Put others in prison and let the woke BLM guys "have" them.

"I pray Barky had something to do with this. Might be the only way he gets locked-up."

An interesting point. Perhaps that's why Barr is "hesitant" to release the anti-firstAmendment contacts/communications?

Perhaps some never Trumper (R)'s on that list as well?
