Spare Me. Biden And Democrats Never Cared About Law And Order
What happened Wednesday at the U.S. Capitol was horrifying -- but so was Kenosha, Minneapolis, Chaz, and Portland. Joe Biden only denounces violence when it serves him politically.

President-elect Joe Biden demanded Wednesday that “just simple decency†be brought back to America after a pro-Trump, “stop the steal†peaceful protest at the U.S. Capitol devolved into a riot. A group of demonstrators stormed the Capitol while lawmakers were trapped inside. One female protester, a retired Air Force veteran, is confirmed dead.
“At this hour our democracy is under unprecedented assault unlike anything we’ve seen in modern times,†Biden said, adding that what unfolded was “an assault on the rule of law like few times we have ever seen it.â€
To be clear, Americans have seen a protracted assault on the rule of law recently. We witnessed the downfall of law and order in America all summer. For months, American cities were under siege, at the mercy of Antifa and Black Lives Matter thugs. At least 30 people were killed during the BLM riots while the corporate media stood in front of burning cities, characterizing them as “peaceful protests.†Yet never did Biden use the forceful language he did yesterday, calling it an “assault on the rule of law.†One of those cities was Kenosha, Wisconsin, where I spent days reporting on the riots this summer.
In August, a Kenosha policeman shot Jacob Blake, an armed black man with a criminal record who was resisting arrest. Following the shooting that left Blake paralyzed, the citizens of Kenosha became victims of domestic terrorism. Although the first night after the incident was relatively peaceful, after the second night, when outside leftist agitators (some of whom I met) flocked to the city, fire and looting consumed uptown and downtown Kenosha.
