Tucker Carlson says white supremacy is a hoax. Here are 5 ways to destroy that line of reasoning bit.ly/2YxUhII
(1) White supremacists killed more people than any other domestic extremist group from 2000-16.

That's from an unclassified May 2017 intelligence bulletin, jointly authored by the FBI and Department of Homeland Security, you can read here👇 cpb-us-e1.wpmucdn.com/blogs.uoregon.…
(2) The FBI director called white supremacy a ‘persistent, pervasive threat.’

That came in an April hearing before Congress:

(3) A substantial number of Americans sympathize with neo-Nazis and white supremacists.

A poll taken after Charlottesville asked: Do you think it’s acceptable to hold neo-Nazi or white supremacist views? Nearly one in 10 Americans said yes

(4) White extremist terror attacks have been on the rise in recent years.

This finding comes from a @nytimes investigation that relied on data from @START_UMD

nytimes.com/interactive/20…
(5) Technology is extending white extremist terrorists’ reach.

The shooter who killed 50 in Christchurch, NZ, drew inspiration from far-right extremist Anders Behring Breivik, who killed 77 in Norway.

Now read the opening line of the El Paso shooter's alleged manifesto👇
Still think white supremacy is a hoax?

The obsession with 'white supremacy' violence is based on cooked studies washex.am/2yCPVAZ
The New York Times editorial board on Sunday evening declared that the United States has “a White Nationalist Terrorist Problem.” The piece linked to an ABC News story from early July on the “growing threat of violent white supremacist extremists.”
Back in June, CNN’s Jake Tapper wondered on air whether a shooting by a white guy that resulted in no deaths or injuries “represents a growing threat in the U.S. of extremist right-wing violence.”

Here’s how much Epstein paid PBSO *while* he was incarcerated. He paid it from a foundation he owned — the same foundation Epstein went to work at everyday during his work release. bit.ly/2LWmqlA @WPTV @WPTVContact5 #Contact5
Take a look at the one page record we received from @PBCountySheriff when we asked for financial records. We’ve followed up asking for receipts, since it’s not clear what the money was used for. bit.ly/2LWmqlA @WPTV @WPTVContact5 #Contact5
This comes as South Florida attorney Brad Edwards reveals that “more than one woman” has come forward with claims that Epstein received female visitors that he also propositioned while out on work release. Edwards represents some of Epstein’s victims from the 2008 case. @WPTV

Ferry Point.

@realDonaldTrump @1100Penn If Eric Trump is no longer involved in his charity, why does this golfer—who just played in a benefit for it—call it "the Eric Trump Foundation"? [H/T @npenzenstadler]

@realDonaldTrump @1100Penn @npenzenstadler Last night a gala was held to celebrate students who committed to enlist in the U.S. military after graduation. It was held at—

Trump National D.C.

Major General Scott Dingle addressed the recruits.

1) Donald Trump’s press conference Wednesday, and the responses to it, are an important and perhaps historic moment, beyond the controversy. It made irrevocably clear that Trump intends to rule as an authoritarian, and his followers want that. Ridiculously long thread follows.
2) @ThePlumLine has already limned the authoritarian nature of the behavior of both Trump and his minions in searing detail. I urge everyone to read this thread so they can understand the dynamic at work here.

3) This is hardly the first time Trump has attempted to assert that his version of reality is the only legitimate one, and that all others are “fake.” It’s been a trademark of his tenure. He uses the gap as a wedge to drive his followers closer.

Why when video shows #ProudBoys stomping on person lying on ground in the fetal position is #NYPD planning only to charge them w/ Riot & Attempted Assault?

Riot is a Misdemeanor & I guarantee my clients would be charged w/ Gang Assault.

buzzfeednews.com/article/maryan… via @marygeorgant
Gang assault in New York, does not mean membership in a "gang," it just requires the participation of three or more people in an assault. This is a classic gang assault situation. Oh and, hey, hate crime charges - there were repeated use of homophobic and racial slurs.
Even when @NYPDONeill & @NYCMayor come under enormous scrutiny and pressure for arresting protesters and not #ProudBoys, & announce they'll take action, it's still smoke & mirrors.
