Mayor Lightfoot and Governor Pritzker both noted that last night’s/this morning’s activities were NOT justification for deploying the National Guard or Federal troops.

Democrat ACTIONS favor looting, burnings, and destruction. The mayor wants to keep the violent action going....

But she's wised up on the 'words'...now she's "against" violence with her cheap words... but her actions (denying effective help to stop looters and thugs) allow the violence to continue. The press will buy this because they're too stupid to see that actions trump words... Lots of these tactics are every 'chinese'... .

“you can’t even hire someone in Idaho to willing to drive a truck back to Portland!”

Well, I’m in eastern WA close to Idaho and would volunteer. Portland is 150 square miles and only around six city blocks are involved in the rioting.

I agree. “Da Mare” (as it was pronounced back in the day) would have taken care of this crap in a heartbeat. He was the king of malapropisms, but he loved the city deeply, and would not suffer any insult or indignity to it.
