“Perhaps this is some sort of mechanism for a restructure in our country or some sort of change in our country for us to deal with whatever we need to deal with in this country as we look at pictures on the right of burning and pictures on the left of looting.”
YOU BET IT IS, DON.

These are the last nationwide riots we'll see during @realDonaldTrump's two-term presidency.

Just as Trump revolutionized the way we deal with pandemics, he'll revolutionize the way we deal with these periodic temper tantrums.
This is just the first step:
"Attorney General Bill Barr issued a statement after the president’s declaration."

"'The violence instigated and carried out by Antifa and other similar groups in connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly,' he wrote."
"Barr also said that 56 regional FBI Joint Terrorism Task Forces would be used to identify 'criminal organizers and instigators' fueling the violence."
Guess what THAT means?

Anyone associated with or funding Antifa or any of the others get the federal hammer dropped on them.

@Twitter can no longer allow them to post.

Neither can Facebook.
Antifa was infiltrated by feds LONG ago.

And members were identified from their DNA.

Retired federal law-enforcement and armed forces harvested their DNA.
Remember THIS photo?

See the heavy man in the background raising his shirt?
He's wearing an obsolete DEA Special Agent badge on his belt.

He's a retiree, working to build an airtight case.

His after-action report went into the file on Antifa.
Everywhere Antifa went, undercover feds unasked them so they could be photographed, and their DNA was harvested.

This is the slickest operation I've ever seen:
The man in the center of the frame positions his team.
Antifia threw a can (right).

The team leader points to it to tell somebody to pick it up for DNA.

See the green-gloved hand on the left?
Right side:

Team leader positions someone else (right).

The bald man in the green shirt is the bait.
The bald man in the green shirt (center of frame) went right up to an Antifa leader and started filming him with a cellphone.
The Antifa attacked, and the bald man tore off his mask and goggles.
The team leader and the man in the white shirt ran in as blockers while the bald man escaped.
The man in the foreground saw that the Antifa's helmet had fallen off, so this ran ran in and collected the helmet.
YouTube took this video down, but it shows another angle of the DNA harvesting.

As the dumpster is moved into position, the "bait" in the green shirt gets a text message.

He's on the left of the screen.
The team leader talks to ANOTHER Antifa leader who later had HIS mask taken TWICE.

Talking to the guy identifies him to invisible watchers who send in a snatch-and-grab team.
The Antifa targeted by the snatch-and-grab team is goaded into attacking, and the bait takes his bandana and goggles.
He runs like a little kid back to his family.
Here he is!

They have his DNA and his face.

After they identified him, they figured out the best way to make him talk.

More infiltration, or squeezing his balls. Whichever worked best.
By designating 56 groups as criminal organizations, Trump makes it illegal for ANYONE to help them.

As always, people were impatient.

They wanted symbolism, not an airtight case.

"Do it fast and wrong, not slowly and right!"
Certain activities will now become federal offenses.

The thing about Antifia is that its members are as childish as Don Lemon.

NOW, Antifa gets to learn what life is like as the American mafia.

Mayhem won't be as fun anymore.
So YES, Don.

The riots changed everything.

We won't see this type of violence ever again.

Mayors and governors will have to play ball, since they'll be up against federal laws.
Thank all those retirees and undercover agents who spent four years making a case that will withstand legal scrutiny.

Once again, Trump wins.

Democrats lose.

It's in the natural order of things.
