When Trump supporters say 'it's not about Trump, it's about us,' when the left howls about President Trump, they aren't kidding.
The Minnesota riots, brought on by a video of a bad instance of police brutality, have incited leftists to paint the perpetrating cop, Derek Chauvin, as a Trump supporter on social media, something they're spreading around:

Here's the fact-check that isn't been seen on Twitter from its vaunted fact-checkers: The claim is 100% fake. 100% And I've looked around for Twitter's disclaimers about it and don't see any.
Even USAToday, to its credit, though, reported it as fake:
The photos, which show several Minneapolis area police officers standing next to the president in “Cops for Trump” T-shirts, was taken at an October rally where dozens of Minneapolis Police Federation members stood on stage with the president.
The man in question is Mike Gallagher, president of the police union in Bloomington, Minnesota, not Chauvin. Full Story @ American Thinker
Twitter unleashes the Flying Monkeys
Twitter Declares War on the Truth - Seeks to instill an Alternate Reality
This week, for the first time, Twitter “fact-checked” one of President Trump’s opinions and redirected users to coverage from that paragon of fairness and objectivity, CNN (don’t laugh). - But I wonder: Will the platform also append “fact-check” labels and links to tweets from prominent liberals that also turned out to be “misleading” or outright false?
Twitter has not said who writes its fact checks. The social media company sparked a backlash from President Donald Trump after appending a fact check to one of his tweets about mail-in voting. Twitter’s fact check, though, misrepresented the facts Read More
As Long As a Political Party Believes It Owns African-Americans, Blacks Will Not Be Free
Only a White Slavemaster would dare tell a Black man to his face “You ain’t Black” and expect him to behave accordingly.
Had America not played host to slavery hundreds of years earlier, we would not have been blighted with Obama. No way that a majority of Americans would have elected such a Zero, with no record of achievement, no single accomplishment to point to, a phony who would put on a “Black accent” when speaking to Black audiences even though he grew up in Hawaii, reared by a White grandmother and sometimes by a White mother, while his Kenyan father abandoned him. Where did that occasional accent come from? Do Kenyans like the father he never really knew speak that way? Read More
Liberals Can do No Wrong
Liberals Don’t Believe They’re Capable Of Doing Anything Wrong
One thing you notice when having a conversation with a committed liberal is you’d have a more productive and honest discussion with a shoe. An old, worn-out shoe. Normally, this phenomenon could be chalked up to ignorance – stupid people are, well, stupid. But many of these people are not stupid, at least not in the traditional sense. It’s arrogance, a kind of arrogance that can only come from indifference to anything contrary to what they want.
You see this manifest itself in reaction to the reaction to the documents exposing how the Obama administration spied on the Trump campaign. You also see it in the glee from leftists whenever they have the opportunity to report bad news about Hydroxychloroquine. And we saw it again Friday when Joe Biden casually dropped a racist comment in a radio interview. None of these people honestly believe they are capable of doing anything wrong because progressives don’t believe anything can be wrong when they do it in the name of their agenda. Read More
The Illusion of Certainty
Ahmaud Arbery’s death was horrible—but was it racist?
The shooting death of Ahmaud Arbery, a 25-year-old black man from Georgia, has reignited the national debate about racial profiling. On February 23, Arbery entered an empty construction site in the city of Brunswick, lingering for several minutes before leaving. ... the McMichaels pursued Arbery. An unidentified black man (it’s unclear if it was Arbery) had trespassed on the same construction site four times—once in October, November, December, and early February. The absentee homeowner caught these incidents on his motion-activated security camera. After the December incident, Gregory McMichael offered to help catch the serial trespasser. Local police subsequently texted the homeowner, advising him to reach out to McMichael “day or night” if he picked up motion on his security camera—the implication being that McMichael could respond faster than they could Read More
