Democrats have refused to condemn any of the violence committed by Antifa over the last year in places like Portland, Seattle, and elsewhere, despite there being thousands of incidents and hundreds of hours of video footage documenting it, including some shown on the floor of the Senate by Ted Cruz.
See Democrats still deny it exists, even after the ultra-left wing super woke Portland mayor admitted there is. They get away with it because the press lets them. You can bet Fake Tapper and his Fat, Dumb, and Bald Guy colleague won’t be pushing the issue. A) they don’t care and B) they’re too busy being excited on Twitter for their woke fan base about how great it is that the internet is getting rid of all thought and speech to the right of Bernie Sanders.
want more proof? ask your rheumatologist about humira. humira. this is my body of proof! all right. i want to tell you a story. a few weeks ago a bunch of people started tweeting me an article from i right-wing website called pajamas media. it s a site that spends a whole lot of time churning out anti-muslim stuff. and the headline of this article said msnbc s no-fly list is islamophobia poster boy arrested in turkey as part of isis cell. with that picture. it s a screen shot from a show i did on my previous program, up in 2013 when we told the story of u.s. air force vet saadiq long, a muslim who was living abroad and barred from flying back to visit his dying mother because he was on the no-fly list. we interviewed him and told the story of the bewildering and confusing process for getting oneself removed from the no-fly list, and eventually he was

when i saw this article i had a few reactions. i ll be totally honest and say that my first was, this is not good. i wondered if i had been duped by someone who it turned out was a cryptojihadi in waiting all along. my second reaction was that even if the story was true, and maybe it was, the point about the basic constitutional unfairness of the no-fly list still stood. i mean, if the government has enough to charge someone, they should charge him. but putting someone on the secret list that curtails their movement and rights without recourse is pretty clearly unjust. and in fact, it just so happens that s precisely the argument that basically everyone on the right has been making for the last week in response to calls to ban people on that no-fly list or the government terror list from purchasing guns. and my third reaction was skepticism. it does seem kind of weird that someone would take his wife and daughter to go join isis. and why was only pajamas media reporting it and reportin
and my third reaction was skepticism. it does seem kind of weird that someone would take his wife and daughter to go join isis. and why was only pajamas media reporting it and reporting it with unnamed officials? also, turkey isn t exactly a bastion of justice and due process. it s a place that had detained a vice journalist on trumped-up charges and where a man is currently right now facing a criminal trial for comparing president thassen erdogan to gollum from lord of the rings. i m not making that up. before we responded we trooig tried to get to the bottom of what actually happened. that was not the approach of others who ran with the story including red state, jihad watch, front page, mediaite, real clear politics, the daily caller, and fox news. a local station in oklahoma led their nightly news with the report. and now they won t let me get on a passenger aircraft. a native oklahoman living in
