‘Antifa Does Not Appear By Accident’: Tucker Says Rioting Is Meant To ‘Affect A Political Outcome’
Daily Caller ^ | Harold Hutchison

Posted on 01/28/2023 2:05:58 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Fox News host Tucker Carlson said Friday that Antifa “does not appear by accident” and intends to secure a political outcome in the wake of Memphis police releasing footage of a fatal altercation involving officers and a motorist.

“As we speak, Antifa is coordinating riots on both coasts and in between. That would include Seattle, Portland, Oregon, Los Angeles, California, as well as Atlanta, Georgia, New York City, suburban Washington, D.C., et cetera, et cetera. Barricades are going up right now in Times Square.

“Antifa is not a bunch of hooligans. These are not idle kids who appear out of nowhere because they are so mad about what they saw on cable news or read on Twitter. Antifa is a political instrument whose actions always are intended to affect a political outcome, period. Antifa does not appear by accident. Antifa appears with a purpose, to affect a political outcome, every single time,” Carlson said.

“If there’s one criticism of the rest of us watching this at home, is that we often miss that, because every channel is telling us something terrible happened, here’s a video of it, and sometimes that video is terrible,” Carlson added. “And then they imply that, because of this video, the emotions of the people watching just erupt into rage and violence. But that’s not what’s happening.”

Antifa has allegedly threatened or attacked conservative events at colleges and political rallies in the past, including a riot during Donald Trump’s 2017 inauguration as president.

“Antifa is being organized by whom? We don’t know. Why don’t we know? To do what? We can’t say right now,” Carlson said. “But we know for certain that, in cities across the country, right now, Antifa is mobilizing to commit violence. This is a political militia.”

ANTIFA are an arm of the FIB.

Comrades in arms anyways. Antifa definitely operates under the protection of the Feds.

Getting businesses and apartment complexes to board up their windows in case the wrong guy wins an election is a brutal but effective voter turnout strategy.

If this guy had taken the Chris Rock approach and responded with "yes, sir, no sir" and a nice smile, he might still be alive today.

But when you listen to the hate whitey crowd (which sometimes includes parents) that tells you that the cops are out to get you, you get paranoid and do precisely the wrong thing...and, boom, you're dead.

They held the Presidency and Congress after the 2020 election. Currently, the Republicans hold the House. I think that we will see more of them for the next two years.

“Was the beating death planned (and paid for) in order to give multiple-city riots an excuse?”

What is trying to creep into the news this week? Pelosi gay tryst video, Pfizer gay exec spills the beans video, Hunter’s laptop is real, Abrams tanks to Ukraine, along with US soldiers(“advisors”) to “train” the operators, hundreds of thousands of bogus or missing ballots in AZ and MI, etc, etc. A good riot would go a long way in keeping much of this off the front page AND bring more guilt/hate to liberal whites. A riot would be a twofer.

“We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded. - Barack Obama”

He couldn't rely on our military because of posse comitatus (not to mention the loyalty of military members to our Constitutional Republic). No, he needed a group of like minded anarchists who subscribe to his Marxist ideology. Enter Antifa who at one point, sported pre-printed signs with the Open Society name on the bottom of them (good look finding the pictures of those signs today). To this day, no one has revealed or even bothered to find out who was delivering pallets of bricks to demonstration locations. Quite organized for an “idea”, wouldn't you say? They ALWAYS tell you what they're going to do.

the ONLY reason that Antifa gets almost no attention is that it’s all part of the Media-Dem-FBI/DoJ Party. Like BLM, Antifa is the footsoldiers, street enforcers of the twisted ideology of its puppet masters.

For Washington D.C. I have their Telegram (app) channel. They post where the police are and where “opposition” is, with circles areas on maps. This is absolutely organized. The only question is how big is the hierarchy and whom sits at the top.

The FBI isn’t interested it seems. So my guess is Pelosi.

Agree. And we still have our balls.

Many of us refused the Jab.

Their hype did not pass the smell test from beginning.

My father face down Klauss’s ancestors when he was 19. Thought the world was cleansed of them. He died 2 years ago at 94. We had many conversations late in his life about how that played out. He did not see the worst of it, but he saw enough.

When Obama came along, he knew full well what we face.

These Antifa maggots are the fascist bass turd offspring of the old German Red Army Faction. Mostly fairies who see themselves as bad asses who run around big cities wearing Ghillie suits. Most have very low, single digit intelligence quotients.

ANTIFA language and conduct is straight out of the Fascist playbook.

That rabid intimidation, hate-inspiring and mindless violence are undeniable precoursers to all forms of totalitarianism. Because they appear leaderless and without a consistently defined objective, they are the 'missing link' between Liberalism and Fascism

If you know the history of Fascism, you know too that these violent and destructive elements are always the very first to get brutally shut down, once they serve their purpose.

They get removed from the new totalitarian set up and then EVERYONE is screwed!

Antifa are brown shirts controlled by the Democrat Party.

Just a wild guess here, but I think both Antifa and the Democrat Party are controlled by globalist elites, operating in parallel to tear down the American Republic.

We need a good house cleaning, but there seems to be a shortage of 'new brooms'.
