This is rather unusual. One would think a governor would be aware that seven blocks in his largest city have been taken over by armed occupiers who have formed an encampment called the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone. However, when questioned about it, an apparently clueless Washington State Governor jay Inslee says “that’s news to me.”
Note Inslee is not alone in being, well, a little odd. Apparently the bouncy sign language interpreter needs to go pee. WATCH
The activists have barricaded the streets and will not let any journalists or city officials inside their declared zone of control. The region expands across six or seven blocks as outlined by the occupying groups.
The designated zone is located in the city’s Capitol Hill district and surrounds the Seattle Police Department’s East Precinct. Police opened the area to protesters on Monday after previously closing the streets following violent demonstrations that took place following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. UPDATES HERE

Buildings alone were not the only things set ablaze during the “George Floyd Protests”—social media torched free expression and demanded renunciations.
An America that once revered disagreement and debate has fallen into imposing mandatory silence upon differing viewpoints. Those who do not bow (kneel?) to political correctness face “re-education,” in the same way that the old Soviet Union arrested opponents and exiled them to the Gulag. Today, in the Gulag’s place, we have social media hate and condemnation.
Cancel Culture Crowd
After earlier sharing a message of unity, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees attracted a backlash last week, when he reiterated his stance that he will “never agree with anybody disrespecting the flag of the United States of America.” The full quote: “I love and respect my teammates, and I stand right there with them fighting for racial equality and justice. I also stand with my grandfathers, who risked their lives for this country, and countless other military men and women who do it on a daily basis.”
The second episode of social media excoriation involved “progressive” Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey being met with a chorus of boos for not being radical enough when he told a group of Black Lives Matter demonstrators on Saturday that he did not support abolishing the city police department. Frey was promptly asked to leave by the crowd, and the ironic, delicious moment occurred in which his destructive political career ended. Of course, Frey will be given the chance to recant, and denounce himself, and the weasel carpetbagger mayor will be welcomed back into the good graces of the “Cancel Culture” crowd.
What amazes about Brees’ apology was the lengths he went to beg forgiveness of his black teammates and the city for which he plays professional football and that has a significant African American population.
In eight paragraphs on Instagram, Brees acknowledged he had made a mistake to show respect to everyone, and not exclusively black people.
Among his comments, Brees said,
“it breaks my heart to know the pain I have caused.”
“I made comments that were insensitive and completely missed the mark.”
“They lacked awareness and any type of compassion or empathy. Instead, those words have become divisive and hurtful.”
“I acknowledge that…. (I) have not done enough to fight for that equality or to truly understand the struggles and plight of the black community.”
One would think denouncing himself would satisfy the mob, nevertheless he felt the need to lambaste the country that made him wealthy because of his ability to throw a tight spiral.
“I stand with the black community in the fight against systemic racial injustice and police brutality. I condemn the years of oppression that have taken place throughout our black communities and still exists today.”
The political indoctrination on college campuses with “safe spaces,” and in government public schools is now bleeding into mainstream America
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey experienced his own sudden whiplash with the Far Left. Frey, who grew up in a Washington, D.C. suburb, ran for city council in 2013 and won. He pushed for “affordable housing” and promised to address climate change, obviously a key issue in frigid Minnesota. According to reports, there has not been a Republican on Minneapolis City Council for more than 50 years, so obviously Democrats have presided over a half century of police brutality and racism before Frey flipped.
The political indoctrination on college campuses with “safe spaces,” and in government public schools is now bleeding into mainstream America. Brees committed the “sin” of being “politically incorrect,” and under pressure “repented” of his “thoughtcrime.” In his classic book, 1984, George Orwell coined the word ‘thoughtcrime’ to describe a person’s unapproved, unspoken beliefs that contradict the government and the Party’s control of the citizenry.
Black Lives Matter and Antifa will not accept that America and no place really save Heaven is perfect. In the Preamble to the United States Constitution, the Founders wrote, “We The People, of the United State of America, in order to form a more-perfect union.” So, from the very beginning, Americans believed their country could do better. Slavery was ended after the Civil War. We had a Civil Rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s because the promise of equality eluded black Americans. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., by non-violence, won a national debate, arguing that America must pay black Americans the promissory note of equal rights, but not special rights.
Now ordinary, silent Americans are guilty, too. Silence means “complicity,” and the Left’s “cure” is “re-education” and “denunciation.”
Americans once peaceably debated the nature of freedom and liberty, and how we ought to govern ourselves. This was America’s defining glory. But over the last 70 years, we have lost the ability to disagree with each other and have our own opinions, much less talk politics to our friends and family.
Drew Brees was silenced, but even that was insufficient; he had to renounce his patriotism. Now ordinary, silent Americans are guilty, too. Silence means “complicity,” and the Left’s “cure” is “re-education” and “denunciation.”
Calling someone a racist is the ultimate silencing. This pernicious word is a political weapon designed to create division and stifle debate. And who is a racist? Anyone who opposes the Left’s “radical transformation” of the United States into a socialist paradise. Here are some examples of this type of racism: Anybody who wants to secure America’s borders and limit immigration. Anybody who wants only U.S. citizens to vote in American elections. Anybody who opposes free health insurance for illegal aliens. Anybody who opposes “defunding the police.”
Dr. King’s standard of trying to love everybody and judging people on the “content of their character, rather than the color of their skin” looks about right.
It is really quite stunning how the U.S. media have avoided reporting on a group of activists in Seattle who have taken over part of the city surrounding the abandoned East precinct police station. No-one is being allowed inside what they are calling a “Free Capitol Hill Zone” or “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ).
The activists have barricaded the streets and will not let any journalists or city officials inside their declared zone of control. The region expands across six blocks as outlined by the occupying groups. Information on the encampment AVAILABLE HERE:
According to the area activists the East precint of the police station is called the “captured regime” (above blue). Journalist Julio Rosas tweeted photos from the ‘Zone,’ including flyers demanding that Seattle PD be defunded, and declaring that police “will always be racist because capitalism requires inequality.”
Independent journalist Andy Ngo has a great deal of familiarity with the groups assembled in the occupying effort. He describes the group in control of the area as “Antifa,” and cited tweets to suggest there were armed guards guarding entry among the occupy protestors.
SEATTLE – City authorities may be expecting the activists to disperse, but the barricades and the content of their social media suggest they intend to stay. Local businesses and residents have “agreed to disaffiliate from Seattle basically,” in the words of one activist, who called it a “flux state in the making” – a reference to an anarchist commune from the fiction series Shadowrun. (RT link)
You would think the militant occupation of a major American city by a group of Antifa activists would lead to a great deal of news media coverage. However, it appears the media zeal to cover, excuse and justify the conduct of their radical Antifa allies has led to a complete black-out of coverage.

When antifa can’t achieve a full revolution, they take over a small area in leftist cities to carry out their utopian commune experiment. It ends in neighborhoods being destroyed & occupiers forcibly dispersed because of health hazards. They leave the filth behind for others. https://twitter.com/julio_rosas11/status/1270445772316667904 …

Protesters have put on the barricades that those coming into the area are “now leaving the USA” and entering the “Cap Hill autonomous zone” or “Free Capitol Hill.”
Seattle @MayorJenny is allowing a dangerous situation to fester. #Antifa militants have taken over & created an “autonomous zone” in city w/their own rules. Police precinct abandoned. Antifa set up barricades to create a border. Calling for volunteers to provide armed guard.
Well-regarded author Dr. Shelby Steele appears for an interview with Martha MacCallum to discuss race relations in the U.S. and how the politics of white guilt does nothing to improve black lives. Dr. Steele challenges the victim narrative and discusses how policies focused on victimization do not empower the strength of any community.
Candidate Joe Biden defined the blackness of black people by saying if they did not support him “you ain’t black.” Obviously the strategy to campaign on this issue was made in the days prior to the South Carolina primary. What we see now is a continuation of that plan. However, the pandering is over-the-top; and there are indications of a backlash from within the black community.
It does not matter what your race, ethnicity or skin color is, no-one likes being talked down to. The nature of the leftist political effort by the DNC’s white coastal elites is based on expressed superiority in alignment with the ‘you ain’t black enough’ outlook from presidential candidate Joe Biden.
This approach will predictably backfire, bigly, in part because campaign director James Clyburn himself is detached from current political sentiment by his age and class-structure. It’s 2020 knuckleheads.
The democrats are poll-testing their approach, but the audience responding to the polls are just more leftist elites. The Democrats are defining an Alinsky strategy through their own biased prism of race. Then they ask opinion of that strategy to a closed and cloistered echo-chamber. It is a circle of racist stupidity.
Outside the DNC ideological bubble, where real people live, work, interact and enjoy each-others fellowship, what the Democrats are trying to do is so fraught with cringe that ordinary people are embarrassed to associate with the effort. This is a big part of the reason why their heavily coordinated and scripted effort is not gaining traction.
Black people do not want the police to be defunded, by leftist activists and trust-fund protestors who don’t even live in the neighborhoods where police are needed, any more than any other person does. Common sense exists within every race.
Racism at it’s basic U.S. form is defined by economics; limo-liberals have the greatest likelihood of actually being racist. Blue-collar middle-class America doesn’t sit around wasting time thinking about race and class struggles. Each individual tries to live their best life and do the best they can for their family.
The audiences who most despise this nonsense political effort, are patriotic black people and immigrants of all races who love the country and don’t sit around debating their level of victim-hood. If Democrats really want to face-plant the 2020 election, keep doing this:
According to a survey done by an online HR/recruitment firm (link attached above), 1 in 5 of Malaysians lost their job due to MCO aka lockdown arising from the COVID.
This is a stark contrast from what mainstream media reports or official numbers. It looks like things are getting ugly when reality sets in.
Stay safe and stay healthy. God bless America!

REPLY: It appears that on average, the global unemployment rate is around 20% thanks to COVID-19. Certain places where they rely on tourism has reached 50%+. This is so profound. Governments in Europe are telling people to stay home for vacations and not travel to southern Europe. Americans have been terrorized by the media not to take cruises or travel by plane. This summer will only heighten the sovereign debt crisis as we head into August.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson has a brief interview with former Acting DNI Ric Grenell about his experience within the DC bubble. As Grenell notes the permanent administrative state is a big problem.
Attorney General Bill Barr sat down today with Fox News’ human cabbage patch doll, Bret Baier, to discuss recent racial antagonism, arson, riots and unrest throughout the country, as well as potential new developments in the Jeffery Epstein case.
Within the interview AG Bill Barr does a good job outlining the Trump administration policies and efforts that were already in the works prior to the George Floyd killing.
.
An argument can be made that the reason Democrats are trying to stir-up racial anxiety is precisely because President Trump is making concrete improvements on issues that have structural benefits to the lives of black Americans.
If a politically naive person watched nearly a week’s worth of protests and general mayhem on MSNBC and CNN like I did, they might arrive at a logical conclusion: It’s all Trumps’ fault. Over and over again I heard guest ‘analysts’ as well as host ‘journalists’ say the rioting was due to Trump’s ‘systemic racism.’ They even said the president fanned the flames of violence.
We can expect Maxine Waters to shrilly blame Trump for anything negative including bad weather. Don Lemon blamed Trump so hard that he almost got emotional over it. I actually expect him to cry—that’s how earnest he became while in the throes of his Trump Derangement Syndrome.
The blame actually goes to Soros. He funds Black Lives Matter and the Antifa. Even those on the left complained that 80% of the rioters were ‘imported from out of town’ and incited violence. Palettes of bricks were left in handy locations to be thrown through windows. Protests are legal and to be expected in this instance but rioting, violence and looting are crimes.
President Trump talked about designated Antifa as a terrorist organization by executive order. Antifa individuals who commit acts of violence should be arrested and held accountable. The real terrorist organization includes George Soros, Bill Gates, and the globalist cabal. They all want to destroy America in order to bring about globalism.
