Late final week, we got here throughout a commentary video by the gamer Asmongold on YouTube. The subject in fact was the unrest surrounding the LA ICE raids. The commentary triggered some back-and-forth with customers in his chat one among whom tried to dismiss what was happening in LA by evaluating it to the protest on January 6, 2021. This prompted one other consumer to remark that the Left “All the time brings up Jan 6.”
To which, Asmongold responded, “As a result of they don’t have some other examples.”
From the very begin of the January 6 saga, it’s been a continuing wrestle to get the reality out over the mountain of lies unfold by the media and the Biden administration about what really occurred that day. The frustration is compounded by the truth that even amongst these on the Proper who’re distrustful of the media, many proceed to imagine the lies. Because of this, demonstrable untruths concerning the protests on January 6 stay unchallenged.
I want I might problem all of them right here and now, however that’s an train that should unfold over time as a result of the lies are so many and the propagandized are so recalcitrant.
As a begin, highlighting key variations between what’s been happening (for days now) in Los Angeles and what occurred that day in DC over 4 years in the past illustrates simply how malevolently deceitful the tales about January 6 are.
From the angle of somebody who was really current on the Capitol on January sixth and who suffered underneath the Biden regime’s boot heel–culminating in 18 months of incarceration–the variations within the media’s response to J6 and the LA riots is infuriating.
The photographs of unrest in Los Angeles enjoying out because the media tells us that it’s utterly peaceable conduct to assault officers, burn automobiles, and be kitted out with shiny signage and tactical gear alone are simply mocked. Makes an attempt to check the 2 are laughably nonsensical.
It’s not even shut as even a cursory examination of the proof proves.
Let’s check out the important thing variations.
1. Flags
It’s been the subject of many commentators on social media that there’s one thing extraordinarily off-putting about the truth that the protesters in LA aren’t waving American flags however flags of Mexico, Palestine, and different international locations. Although it could appear trivial to some, the flags inform you all the pieces you want to learn about what the protesters in each conditions maintain as guiding beliefs.
For January 6, the flags have been a mixture of American flags together with Trump flags. This underscores the truth that the intent of the protesters was to protest within the identify of our personal nation.
Sure, the protest was directed at parts of the federal government, however that’s what each protest is ostensibly — an opportunity to carry and specific your grievances to the federal government so that these grievances could also be addressed.
The LA protesters, on different hand, are clearly not all for selling American values or calling on their fellow residents to uphold American beliefs.
No, these are self-identified foreigners resisting a authorities to which they maintain no allegiance in a rustic whose tradition for all intents and functions they maintain in open disdain. All whereas flying the flags of the nations they so desperately search to keep away from.
On January 6, the media claimed it was the tip of democracy as a result of Individuals waving American flags have been protesting, whereas this week we’ve got seen them glorify self-identified unlawful immigrants saying the legal guidelines of America don’t apply to them as a result of they’re stealing again what quantities to stolen items, specifically the land we name residence.
Because the protestors in Dallas proclaimed, “Chinga la migra” (F-ck the immigration authorities) and “Nobody is unlawful on stolen land.”
2. Funding
After I booked my flight and lodge to Washington DC, precisely zero tax payer {dollars} have been spent. Neither the Trump speech on the Ellipse nor the protest on the Capitol constructing noticed any protesters supplied with meals or protest provides like indicators, protecting gear, or flags.
Many individuals have been shocked to find that the LA rioters are literally being funded, a lot of it by we the American taxpayers.
Among the many non-governmental organizations related with the road actions over the previous weekend are CHIRLA (Coalition of Humane Immigration Rights – LA), PSL (Get together for Socialism and Liberation — a Communist group), and the Million Voters Mission.
These organizations share assets and collaborate in quite a few methods. The primary has obtained upwards to $34 million in authorities grants whereas the opposite two have benefited from hundreds of thousands of {dollars} in funding from pro-China Communism billionaire Neville Singham.
And, as we’ll see beneath, America isn’t the one nation offering monetary or ethical assist to the rioters.
Not one of the protesters on January 6 benefited from this type of authorities assist. Nor have been we flush with hundreds of thousands of {dollars} paid by billionaires and suppose tanks.
As a result of there have been over 1,500 of us, the authorized charges alone would have simply exceeded $100 million–an quantity that already dwarfs the federal government cash obtained by CHIRLA.
Any donations we obtained have been from particular person supporters, lots of them anonymously contributing small sums starting from a couple of {dollars} to possibly a pair hundred.
Moreover, these donations have been despatched to political prisoners’ commissary accounts after they have been imprisoned, not earlier than the protest. J6ers have been already behind bars once they obtained any cash.
If this iteration of the Summer time of Love is something just like the prior 2020 debacle, we will anticipate a lot of the LA rioters to have their costs dropped, if any are introduced in any respect.
3. Media Lies
It’s no thriller that the media performed a serious position in sensationalizing what occurred on January sixth. By the tip of the day pundits have been seething over the “tried revolt” and took their fainting couches wailing that America would by no means get better until we protesters have been all rounded up and brought out of society and away from public discourse.
To enflame public outrage, there was no finish to the lies advised about January 6. First they mentioned we murdered cops.
When it turned out that the only deceased officer, Brian Sicknick, died of a coronary heart assault not on January sixth however the subsequent day, they nonetheless insisted in opposition to all logic and information the reason for dying was the protest.
Then got here a slough of officer suicides/doubtful deaths, some as late as six months after the unique protest. The press claimed these males too have been “killed” by J6ers.
Because the push again in opposition to the counterfactual media claims grew to become extra vociferous, the press stopped calling us murderers and as an alternative referred to January 6 as “the lethal protest.”
Why would they use such obscure language? As a result of it was lethal. For us. 4 protesters died on account of police actions that day.
Not a single cop was killed. However to listen to the media discuss it, we left the Capitol strewn with the our bodies of officers all of whom died valiantly defending “democracy” from the lethal scourge of widespread dissent.
The insistence on characterizing Jan 6 as a “lethal protest” took a really actual toll on J6ers.
Think about being referred to as a murderous insurrectionist by your loved ones members as a result of the federal government charged you with trespassing.
This was solely a small portion of the media mischaracterization of January 6. In each element, rhetorical language was amped as much as provoke the utmost quantity of disgust.
One photograph of a Democrat selecting up a small assortment of things from the ground is described by the AP as “Rep. Andy Kim, D-N.J., cleans up particles and private belongings strewn throughout the ground of the Rotunda within the early morning hours of Jan. 7, 2021, after rioters stormed the Capitol in Washington.” But the flooring and partitions within the background are pristine and unblemished. The place is the “particles” talked about?
In one other photograph, Kim could be seen selecting up discarded bottles of water. The flooring are once more immaculate.
I point out this as a result of one of many largest lies about Jan 6 is that protesters smeared blood and feces all through the Capitol. In my very own analysis and in my interactions with three separate AIs (all which carried out extraordinarily lengthy searches for such a easy query), no photographic or video proof exists. That is finest proof of “feces smeared on the partitions” I’ve been capable of finding: the-sun.com/news/2105149/trump-supporters-smeared-poo-capitol-building/
The unique caption reads: “Remnants of feces was noticed on the ground as brown ‘foot-prints,’ a supply mentioned.” Not solely are there no brown footprints, however the a part of the ground untouched by chemical irritants seems so clear, it might have been newly mopped.
So the feces fantasy comes fully phrase of mouth from nameless staffers who have been seemingly experiencing mud for the primary time of their lives (it was moist outdoors) or intentionally fabricating this story in an effort to body protesters within the worst potential mild.
They promoted the narrative that J6ers have been an animalistic rabble mindlessly desecrating the hallowed halls of our anointed authorities overlords.
Both that, or we’re to imagine that these identical staffers, festooned with excessive tech devices all geared up with cameras didn’t as soon as suppose to doc their startling discovery.
The media lies within the different excessive when it comes the precise lethal riots fomented by the Left. As Actual Clear politics has documented, damages from the BLM riots bumped into the billions of {dollars}.
But the media insisted all through 2020 that the columns of smoke have been the product of “largely peaceable protests” — a declare so ludicrous that the nonetheless picture of the CNN reporter standing in entrance of a burning metropolis block with these phrases emblazoned on the chyron on the backside of display grew to become a logo of media malfeasance. My based mostly lawyer Marina Medvin used that very nonetheless in one among my filings.
At this time, the media proceed to insist that the riots occurring over the course of days in LA are additionally peaceable.
ABC7 Jory Rand argued on Sunday that the Nationwide Guard wasn’t wanted on the scene as a result of it was “only a bunch of individuals having enjoyable watching automobiles burn.” The media insisted the issue wasn’t protesters’ violence, however that the presence of legislation enforcement provoked them.
Most individuals aren’t so demeaned that they might take heed to such lies, however as I maintain stating, they know folks don’t imagine them. They know they received’t change hearts or minds.
When Leftists communicate, it’s to encourage their fellow Leftists to violence. And that’s precisely what’s occurring in LA and now in different cities across the nation as effectively.
However J6ers weren’t solely confronted with media lies.
4. Authorities Response
Earlier than the solar set on January 6 2021, the phrase was out. The day was repeatedly labeled an tried insurrection and this media furor gave the federal government the idea it wanted to mobilize its full pressure in a political round-up marketing campaign of “shock and awe” in response to a growing threat of domestic terror.
Even in its first few months, this nationwide police motion was already described because the “largest investigation and prosecution” within the current historical past of the Division of Justice.
At this time, after a weekend-plus of fixed road violence and destruction, the LA PD at the moment declare roughly 39 arrests with most of these being for failure to disperse whereas the remaining are associated to blocking freeway 101.
Contemplating that protests have been out of hand for days on finish now, that’s a distressingly low variety of arrests for comparatively minor crimes.
Examine that with the federal authorities’s therapy of people that walked harmlessly by our Capitol and the lengths by which the Division of Justice went to cost with insurrectiony-sounding crimes (“interference in official continuing”) which didn’t even apply to their circumstances legally.
It doesn’t even come shut in both scope or scale. When rounding up the small enterprise homeowners and farmers of J6, the FBI employed wires, facial recognition software program, monetary monitoring, and mobile phone geofencing. For the ICE protests, the FBI is solely placing up quaint wished posters with guarantees of rewards.
However even on the bottom, there was a large distinction in response. The disturbance of January 6 lasted a mere few hours spanning from the time Trump’s speech ended round 1pm and the crowds dispersed in time to get again to their lodges by curfew, which was 6pm that day.
And talking of curfew, that was the one push warning we protesters obtained on that day.
Although town (and positively the federal authorities) had the flexibility to push out a discover to disperse, no such order was even given. Not by cellphone, nor by the Big Voice System that had been operational in DC since 2015.
By the point the protest was referred to as an unlawful gathering, we protesters have been already departing the West Terrace in an orderly vogue. I ought to know. I used to be the final individual off the Western Terrace.
The ICE protesters on different hand, have been given quite a few warnings to disperse. Not only one night time however over the course of a number of consecutive days together with June 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th.
For many people on the Capitol on Jan sixth, the scenario was chaotic and unfamiliar. Though there have been conflicts with the police, the majority of the protesters would have complied with official instructions to disperse had any been given. None have been. That’s not the case with the LA protesters. They’ll’t plead ignorance or confusion as a result of the order to disperse and declaration of unlawful gathering happens each night time in a ritualistic vogue.
5. Arson and Looting
There’s a really well-known photograph that the media likes to drag out to defame J6 protesters. It’s fairly dramatic, though the reality behind completely destroys the story it’s meant to push.
The photograph reveals an amazing cloud rising from a glowing mild. I feel most individuals this is able to assume that the Capitol constructing itself had been set afire. It wasn’t. The truth is, no fires in any way have been set by the protesters.
What seems to be smoke in that photograph is definitely a large cloud of chemical irritants corresponding to, however not restricted to, tear gasoline. The rationale it seems like there’s a hearth is as a result of that cloud seems to be rising from a light-weight supply.
However the mild supply is definitely a large concussive blast from flash bang grenades. The photograph both has good timing, or it’s a nonetheless body taken from an extended video.
Nonetheless, the sunshine coming from beneath the cloud is definitely a bit of stagecraft to make it seem like one thing is on hearth when it isn’t.
So what you’re really seeing is NOT a gaggle of harmful protesters dancing within the flames they set within the nation’s Capitol. In actuality it’s a big group of individuals kettled in on the West Terrace being mercilessly bombarded with munitions by police. The identical police who supplied no technique of egress, no order to disperse, and no warning.
Examine this to the fixed lighting of fires in LA — a follow that, once more, has continued for a lot of consecutive days now. The truth is, most of the extra iconic pictures from these protests function the columns of black smoke and flaming automobiles intentionally torched by the LA rioters. It’s virtually as if the Left accuses the Proper for the very crimes they commit.
One other factor the J6 protesters shunned doing that the LA rioters are eager on is looting. No shops in DC have been touched, torched, damaged into, or robbed that day. Like I mentioned, we have been in by 6pm. That didn’t go away plenty of time for mischief. Nevermind that the destruction of personal property is just not one thing conservatives condone.
Not the case with the invaders in LA. The truth is, the looting scenario stays so fluid that no greenback quantities have been calculated for the harm inflicted on native companies. Based on Grok on X, there have been roughly 15 LA companies attacked up to now. These embrace an Apple Store, a T-Mobile, a number of shoe shops (Adidas, Nike, and a Shoe Palace), several jewelry stores, two dispensaries, and a sushi place.
Take into accout, this can be a working tally. Except these riots are stopped, the looting and arson is more likely to proceed.
That is devastating for the residents of Los Angeles. We all know this as a result of over 4 years after the George Floyd riots, Minneapolis has yet to recover. Most of the companies destroyed by no means reopened. Property values cratered. Homelessness and crime spiked. And even the colleges declined.
Looting does greater than illegally switch the products held by the shop into the arms of the looters. It ruins the social compact between native governments and companies, inflicting them to flee areas the place civic leaders are too incompetent to make sure a functioning social order.
That’s one other means of claiming that looting inflicts a everlasting malaise in cities the place it happens. These companies will not be going to return again.
And I can’t assist however chuckle to myself at the truth that a field of DC jurors hated us far more than any potential field of LA jurors will hate the separatist rioters who triggered considerably extra harm to native companies and private property. We have been hated not for what we did however for who we supported politically.
6. Function
The final huge distinction between the LA rioters and the J6 protesters lies within the causes behind every protest.
J6ers marched to the Folks’s Home that day to train our rights as residents and protest a stolen election. It’s actually telling you can say this in combined firm as of late and folks typically no less than acknowledge that the 2020 election was suspiciously anomalous to say the least.
There’s a trope on the Left that the courts someway weighed in on the validity of our issues and issued definitive judgments based mostly on dispassionate and thorough investigations. Nothing may very well be farther from the reality.
The courts then, like now, operated in protection of the Washington Beast. As a substitute of judging the circumstances on their deserves, complaints have been dismissed on standing — a consideration that has nothing to do with validity of the arguments of those that challenged the case.
Within the extremely uncommon and distinctive cases the place the arguments have been thought of, the election skeptics have been really vindicated.
However then got here the research by the Caesar Rodney Institute into the big internet of billionaire-backed organizations devoted to tipping the election in Biden’s favor. That was adopted by the film 2000 Mules which confirmed how the steal was pulled off.
However past these examples and different analysis, there was all the time one thing extraordinarily off concerning the Biden administration.
It’s essential to grasp that it doesn’t matter what you consider the Jan 6 protest, Biden was the final word winner of that debate when it got here to the certification of the election. Biden’s presidency was not derailed.
Although he got here into the White Home underneath a cloud of suspicion, a really comparable cloud of “Russian collusion” dogged the primary Trump administration. But the way by which the 2 presidents handled their detractors couldn’t be extra totally different.
Trump was frequently and publicly harangued, but he remained magnanimous. He didn’t ship police into the countryside to drag aside households for the crime of getting a distinct political opinion.
Biden did. Not solely did he always hound us and our households and our supporters and anybody who a lot as questioned his election on-line (in addition to conventional Catholics and prolifers)—he additionally labored at varied factors all through his administration to stoke extreme hatred and fear in opposition to the nation for questioning his legitimacy.
Name me loopy, however that looks like a serious indictment of the 2020 election. From the beginning, Biden acted like a person determined to maintain the reality from coming to mild and keen to make use of any authorities software to suppress that reality.
Revelations since Biden departed from ofice have solely underscored the diploma to which his complete presidency appeared a fastidiously orchestrated and intentionally staged deception. The arrival of the autopen scandal has for the primary time within the historical past of American politics left the voting public perplexed as to who was actually running the country for these 4 darkish years.
Distinction this with the LA rioters. Waving flags of the very international locations they allegedly fled from, they combat for a proper no true American citizen can declare: immunity from federal legislation.
This regardless of the actual fact the explanation they’re protesting is as a result of they aren’t even residents to start with and the particular legislation they demand immunity from occur to be the very legal guidelines we the folks established to manage who does and doesn’t grow to be an American.
That is no petition of grievances. They’re protesting for a everlasting change in how immigration legislation is utilized. If granted, this proposition nullifies legal guidelines important for a way we Americans management our land, our tradition, and our authorities. If we select to take heed to the rioters’ pleas for sympathy, it could result in the full annihilation of the American nation state as we all know it.
Which, frankly, is their specific goal. It’s no secret. The protesters are overtly saying that is their aim: to wrench our nation away from us. The invaders continuously seek advice from our nation as “stolen land” which should be topic to “reconquista” or reconquest. One of many teams supporting the rioters is the Communist group Centro CSO, which claims the whole American Southwest is definitely a separate Chicano nation, referred to as Aztlan.
So should you have been questioning why the protesters are waving flags of nations they by no means need to return to, there’s your most obvious reply: they aren’t going again to Mexico as a result of they’re bringing Mexico to us.
It appears we’ve got a reputation for once you go to a rustic to ascertain a territory in your residence nation: invasion.
As if that’s not damning sufficient, none apart from the president of Mexico, upon discovering the existence of a remittance tax within the upcoming finances invoice, warned America that she would “mobilize” in opposition to our nation in response. Inside two weeks LA protesters have been pushing to create an autonomous zone the place American federal immigration legislation wouldn’t apply. That is bare aggression.
There’s an actual poetic justice in the truth that media speaking heads like to check Jan 6 with what’s happening with the ICE riots. As I’ve identified, they appeared to have a vested curiosity in defending the DC system by convincing our fellow residents that Jan 6 was an revolt.
But essentially the most unbiased evaluation of the information across the ICE riots, which they relentlessly downplay, reveal that the rioters’ focus and aim are nothing in need of revolt itself.
And this main distinction is crucial distinguishing attribute between the 2 occasions: that Jan 6ers have been intent on saving our nice nation by lawful political dissent, whereas the ICE rioters need nothing greater than to tear the nation aside as their continued lawlessness mindlessly refashions LA within the picture of the nations they fled.
Matt da Silva as soon as labored on the highest ranges of presidency belief as a Japanese and Mandarin Navy linguist. Along with working on the tip of the intel spear, he additionally has the excellence of getting served 18 months in federal jail for his involvement in Jan 6. Now he’s pardoned and utilizing his intel evaluation and writing abilities in protection of the twenty first century civil rights motion referred to as the MAGA motion. You will discover extra of his writings at his substack (which is free). You might also need to give him a comply with on X and TruthSocial or watch his movies on his Rumble channel, J6 Matt Cast.
