Sadly, even if a Republican is attacked or killed nothing will happen, it is time to stand up and defend yourself without fear. The flip side of the coin is when a Republican does defend themselves, they'll likely be thrown in jail. It is really a sad day.

“Seeing that Trump might get in, people will know that they can look to us as the real opposition to the Republicans,” he said. “Until we actually defeat the Republican agenda, they’re going to feel scared to show their faces anywhere.” Oh really? May I suggest that your bully-tactics of silencing anyone you disagree with using fear, might be beginning to run its course? Bullys don't fare well in sunlight. Bullys don't fare well when being called out. Let's start calling you all out in the plain sunlight. You can speak, so can I.

That's right! If they really believe in their anarchy, they shouldn't be so scared that they feel the need to wear masks. Those crybabies are cowards that are having fun disrupting but don't want to be singled out in case, some day, they might need to get a job.

Violence that's not a defense (back burn) against violence is wrong for any reason. Protests have ruined things for many people because of their violent turn in recent years.

If they would just eat a good meal - like a fat, greasy double decker burger with bacon - they would feel much better and stop doing stupid stuff like this.

Always nice to see when a collection of life's losers decide its someone else's fault.

Tell me again how the Left is peaceful and we gun-toting, Bible-thumping "right-wingers" are a threat to democracy.

LOL, rich Republicans? 1985 called and wants its political affiliations back.

That surprised me. Trump's base is comprised of middle class, working class people. The party was historically business and upper class, but you are right: it is not 1985 any more. The ignorance is just mind blowing.

Eh, reading your reporting makes me nervous. I’ve said it before and i’ll say it again, be careful. Andy Ngo got the shit beaten out of him more than once for this kind of on the ground reporting about the far left. It makes me worries one day i’ll open substack to see a picture of you with a black eye missing a tooth. Although this could just be the former Corrections Officer in me talking.

At least leave the Fress Press tote bag at he next time. By the end they were spotting Andy Ngo even when he was in full Black Bloc.

I fully support Ms. Reingold in her reporting efforts. Don’t hedge, continue to hit the line hard.

Still, it’s not wrong to assume you are making yourself a target. It might not be a bad idea to look into some personal protection outfits. If TFP isn’t willing to spring for the cost, I’ll offer my services at cost (I’m not going to be as good as an actual agency).

I’m appalled by the utter silence from the feckless occupant of the White House over all the rampant antisemitism raging around this country!

Infuriated, perhaps. Nothing appalling about it.

It’s all about them votes, Tina. Silence on this is calculated as more votes vs. speaking out. If this is true, it’s frightening what our nation is devolving into.
