Did Hakeem Jeffries Just Kinda-Sorta Endorse the Desire for ‘Blood in the Streets?”

https://hotair.com/subscribe?tpcc=60sale&promo_code=FIGHTWe report, you decide. 

When I listened to this clip, my reaction was that Hakeem Jeffries kinda sorta endorsed all the attacks on ICE agents and the idea that blood should run in the streets, as Democratic Party voters have reportedly been demanding. 

He didn’t even go to the old standby “I don’t approve of violence, but…” He went straight to explaining why his voters’ demanding violence makes sense when Donald Trump is president. 

700% more attacks on ICE agents. Armed ambushes. And the response from the Dems leader? A smirk and a shrug. https://t.co/1EnyiiPK6w

Earlier in the week, I wrote about Axios’ report that a number of Democratic Party Congressmen are worried that their voters are demanding they confront ICE and law enforcement with violence. They need to get shot, apparently, to grab the attention of the media and voters. Anything less and it’s not enough. 

After all, some Democrats are shooting at ICE already—it’s time for elected officials to step up as well.

We are seeing open warfare and even the murder of law enforcement agents on the streets, and Hakeem Jeffries is explaining why it’s happening with a smirk and a shrug rather than condemning it. 

The Democrats are the Jacobins. Only in the modern world they are using firebombs and guns rather than the guillotine. The idea is the same, only the execution is different. 

The violence keeps ramping up, as does the rhetoric of the Democrats who are egging it on. As Antifa–the Brownshirts of the Democratic Party–are at war with law enforcement, their leaders in the NGO and political world are egging them on. 

Check out the sophistication of the Antifa-linked terror cell members in Dallas-Fort Worth charged with attempted murder after opening fire on an ICE facility in Alvarado on July 4th.

Check out the sophistication of the Antifa-linked terror cell members in Dallas-Fort Worth charged with attempted murder after opening fire on an ICE facility in Alvarado on July 4th. They were heavily armed with military gear, guns, AR-15 style rifles, 12 sets of Kevlar bullet proof vests, masks, goggles, tactical gloves, two-way radios, and helmets. 

Also had Faraday bags that block all wireless signals from law enforcement trying to track them. Blocks all GPS signals, calls, texts or pings. 

Agent shot in neck expected to survive. “Resist Fascism. Fight Oligarchy” flag and “fight ICE terror with class war” flyers were in their cars. 

This is after the CEO of UnitedHealth was assassinated by a far-left extremist, two staffers at Israeli Embassy in DC shot dead by radical far-left extremist, 13 severely wounded and one dead in firebombing in Boulder by far left anti-Israel radical, far-left rioters destroyed and caused $160M est’ed damage to downtown LA in anti-Ice riots. 

Karen Bass, whose city is one of several loci of the violence, glibly gets up and says none of it is happening at the same time she is out on the ground confronting ICE agents herself. 

LA Mayor Karen Bass claims there were no riots and it “never happened.”

If only there were cameras or something so people can video the rioting and share evidence…

Oh wait…

They did. pic.twitter.com/LUUCTrh9Wz

It’s clear they want the violence to escalate.
