Who are the rogue federal agents in Portland and now headed to Chicago?
What is there purpose?
Who is in charge?
Who is paying for them?
The use of unidentifiable agents to enforce, or make up, the law is criminal, whether done by city, state, or federal agencies. This is anathema to everything this country stands for and is a threat to every American no matter what their political affiliation. These agents are the hammer to beat down any criticism regardless whose it may be.
These agents are above the law because they can’t be identified and held accountable for their extrajudicial actions. Without accountability these people are free to do what they want and then deny their actions to the public and their own superior officers. They are loose cannons pointed at every American.
In addition, we are paying their salaries! These bullies are government employees hired to serve the people of the United States but are now acting at the pleasure of the President and his cadre of rebels.
These agents are Vigilantes, direct descendants of the Ku Klux Klan, the Nazi Gestapo and SS, and Russian NKGB.
Their purpose is not law and order. It is just the opposite. These masked bullies are Agent Provocateurs, a paramilitary force acting at the direction of Trump and his Administration. Their purpose is to use the cover of the law to directly attack free speech and the 1st Amendment.
They have a much more sinister role as well. As provocateurs they are intended to get a violent response that can then be used as a justification for escalating the violence against Americans. This is the excuse that Trump will use to call in the U.S. military to patrol our streets and attack peaceful demonstrators.
This is the final act before marshal law is invoked and the November elections are postponed: CANCELLED.
Counting on the military to stay out of this assault on our freedoms is no longer certain. In the past, our military’s generals, and officer corps have observed the Constitution’s ban on the use of US armed forces on US soil. I believe most of these leaders will still observe this law.
I don’t know how the enlisted personnel feel. I hope they see that it’s best for the US and all Americans to not get sucked into the bloody mess Trump is trying to steer us into. We all support the troops, not just the right-wing. In the past when we demonstrated against senseless wars, like Iraq, our goal was to protect our troops. We need them in this dangerous world, which is why we must only ask them to go into harms way when absolutely necessary. Fighting for the profits of oil companies and arms manufacturers isn’t defending our freedom or our nation. The people of our military are our sons and daughters, husbands, and wives. They are too precious to be squandered for business interests or the political gain of a party or President.
I have no doubt that Trump and his cohort will continue to push their attack on the 1st Amendment or their demonizing of fellow Americans which makes it easier to justify violence against us.
If you have family or friends in the military, reach out to them and tell them that you care and how important it is to remain faithful with the Constitution, staying out of a fake emergency engineered to get them to harm fellow Americans.
