U.S. designates Barrio 18 as foreign terrorist organization
Story by Darryl Coote • 5h

Sept. 23 (UPI) -- The United States on Tuesday designated Barrio 18 as a foreign terrorist organization, the latest gang to be blacklisted by the Trump administration amid its immigration crackdown.

The State Department, which announced the designation, described Barrio 18 as one of the largest gangs in the Northern Hemisphere, responsible for attacks against security personnel public officials and civilians in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras.
 
"The United States will continue to protect our nation by keeping illicit drugs off our streets and disrupting the revenue streams funding the violent and criminal activity of vicious gangs and drug cartels," Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement.

"Today's action taken by the State Department further demonstrates the Trump administration's unwavering commitment to dismantling cartels and gangs and ensuring the safety of the American people."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Maybe not the hard core of wokeists and Communists, but anyone working for a living in a union (or other) job should be looking long and hard at Party affiliation with the mentally imbalanced, sexual perverts, and foreign gangs and terrorist groups. I just don't see the rank and file guys voting for this crap if they stop to think about who is running the Party and what they are saying.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

You need a brain to think, and most hard-core unionists (democrats) don't. **nononono*
