Exclusive — Jack Posobiec: Antifa ‘On The Upswing,’ ‘Getting Everything They Ask For’
Breitbart ^ | 6-22-2021 | Robert Kraychik

Posted on 06/22/2021 5:25:44 AM PDT by blam

Jack Posobiec, senior editor at Human Events and author of The Antifa: Stories From Inside the Black Bloc, told Breitbart News on Monday that the removal of President Donald Trump has emboldened Antifa.

Antifa sees ousting the Trump administration as a victory, Posobiec stated in an interview on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow, author of Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media’s Hidden Deals and Secret Corruption.

Posobiec noted the widespread adoption of its “defund the police” narrative among Democrats, their allied media, and the broader left has energized Antifa.

He remarked, “They are definitely on the upswing, and they see the removal of Trump. They see … the defunding of many of these police organizations [and] police departments as getting everything they ask for, and they’ve had now a major taste of victory, and they’re looking for other targets. They are looking for more opportunities to be able to flex their power, to flex their muscle, and they’re flush with this corporate backing, with the backing of many of these mainstream media organizations. They want to go out there and go after every single vestige of the conservative movement until it is gone.”

The refusal of local authorities in Portland, Oregon, to stop Antifa’s ongoing violent conduct further invigorates the leftist group, Posobiec held.

He remarked, “If you look up at a place like the city of Portland, you could easily make the argument that Antifa has been one of the most effective extremist organizations in America, because they have actually succeeded now in dismantling a specific portion of government, the rapid response unit of the Portland police department. These are the people that are called out for civil, unrest events.”

On Wednesday, the Portland Police Bureau’s entire Rapid Response Team resigned in protest...

On yesterday’s thread about Portland having taken out a full page ad in the NYT promoting “tourism” in Portland, I made the comment, recruitment ad.

My comment is that to place such an add, the Portland Government has panicked.

Portland has leprosy

They keep asking for something that they haven’t gotten yet, but we can hope.

I was thinking of Antifa and bLM's success the other day. Yes, success. They are getting the things they want by literally burning, looting and murdering. People like us write their congressman. That hasn't been so successful.

So which method really works? Do we just idly standby and watch our Republic destroyed?

The Democrats want to turn all of their cities into new Detroits.

I don't understand, but that's what they want to do.

There is a possible solution, but right now Antifa and BLM are being protected by both the organizations they seek to defund and by other parties who have a vested interest in disrupting society.

We want to go after every single vestige of the liberal/Marxist/Socialist movement until it is gone.

Until Antifa starts encountering a little street justice, this will persist.

Unfortunately, the cops have been protecting Antifa.

There is much video evidence and I have witnessed it personally here in Denver.

Nothing happened when they destroyed the health insurance of Americans via Obamacare, either. Or when they melted down the mortgage loan industry, which collapsed the economy and got us eight years of Obamanation. And they still don't give a tinker's damn what 'most' Americans want or don't want.

Portland needs a million gallons of kerosene and a match to reset.

After the police get defunded, do the locals show up? Is Physical combat even necessary at that point?

ANTIFA didn’t disband the Rapid Response Team, the DAs actions in indicting one of its officers disbanded the team.

ANTIFA didn’t disband that unit, PPB leadership disbanded it by not supporting the officers.

ANTIFA isn’t responsible for cops quitting and retiring all over the country, its the Mayors, city councils and county commissions.

The people most responsible for all of this are the VOTERS.

THey are the ones that put these people in the positions they are in. Of course, one segment of the voters do not care about the violence, chaos, and disruption. The other segment are the wealthy, WHITE inner city liberals that live in neighborhoods that aren’t effected by all of that. And somewhere, there is a small segment in the middle that are helpless.

So much was made about the shoplifter in SanFran. SanFran elected a socialist DA that stated he wasn’t going to prosecute those types of crimes. Who is to blame for that? Not the perp. Not the DA.

It would be absolutely amazing if they could recruit EVERY liberal, radical, progressive activist to move and live there. Let it become the HQ for all things ANTIFA/BLM/ELF and any other radical leftist group. Please.

Once they’re all there, T-Wall the whole thing. No one in or out. Supply them with some AKs and ammo and let them sort it out.

Once the shooting stops, send in teams to finish off the few remaining survivors, mean up the city and start over.

Dump the bodies in an incinerator or in the pacific. Let nature take its course.
