   With Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, Seattle   
   Mayor Katie Wilson, and other hard-leftists out there trying to conjure   
   up the spirits of Jefferson Davis and Stonewall Jackson, President   
   Donald Trump has just made it clear that he is not going to tolerate any   
   more of this low-grade but escalating insurrection.   
      
   “I have instructed Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem,” Trump   
   wrote on Saturday afternoon, “that under no circumstances are we going   
   to participate in various poorly run Democrat Cities with regard to   
   their Protests and/or Riots unless, and until, they ask us for help.”   
   This apparently means that Trump intends to deny the Democrats what they   
   want most: Trump sending the National Guard to restore order in cities   
   where leftist leaders are using the lack of order as a political weapon,   
   and are salivating at the chance of being able to claim that they’re   
   holding the line for “our democracy” against the fascist Trump and his   
   jackbooted thugs.   
      
   That doesn’t mean, however, that Trump is going to leave those cities to   
   drown in the mayhem that leftist leaders are encouraging in order to   
   protect the Democrats’ voter base. He continued: “We will, however,   
   guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are   
   being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and   
   Insurrectionists.” Yes, that’s right: leftists are in favor of   
   insurrectionists now, because the present insurrection, as opposed to   
   the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection theatre, is real, and being ginned up on   
   their side.   
      
   Trump added a pointed warning for future Renee Goods and Alex Prettis:   
   “Please be aware that I have instructed ICE and/or Border Patrol to be   
   very forceful in this protection of Federal Government Property. There   
   will be no spitting in the faces of our Officers, there will be no   
   punching or kicking the headlights of our cars, and there will be no   
   rock or brick throwing at our vehicles, or at our Patriot Warriors. If   
   there is, those people will suffer an equal, or more, consequence.” It’s   
   likely that if he follows through on that, he would find that doing so   
   was wildly popular. The American people have had quite enough of these   
   rabid ideologues interfering with law enforcement operations on behalf   
   of criminals.   
      
   At the same time, the president reminded insurrectionist city leaders of   
   the responsibilities they swore to uphold: “In the meantime, by copy of   
   this Statement, I am informing Local Governments, as I did in Los   
   Angeles when they were rioting at the end of the Biden Term, that you   
   must protect your own State and Local Property. In addition, it is your   
   obligation to also protect our Federal Property, Buildings, Parks, and   
   everything else. We are there to protect Federal Property, only as a   
   back up, in that it is Local and State Responsibility to do so.”   
      
   This could be the most important part of Trump’s statement, for it is   
   going out to numerous local officials who have not only been ignoring   
   that responsibility, but actively contravening it for their own   
   short-sighted political ends. In reminding them of which side they are   
   supposed to be on, Trump is once again raising the specter of   
   consequences. Play civil war games, win civil war prizes.   
      
   Trump continued with a specific example. “Last night in Eugene, Oregon,”   
   he wrote, “these criminals broke into a Federal Building, and did great   
   damage, also scaring and harassing the hardworking employees. Local   
   Police did nothing in order to stop it. We will not let that happen   
   anymore! If Local Governments are unable to handle the Insurrectionists,   
   Agitators, and Anarchists, we will immediately go to the location where   
   such help is requested, and take care of the situation very easily and   
   methodically, just as we did the Los Angeles Riots one year ago, where   
   the Police Chief said that, ‘We couldn’t have done it without the help   
   of the Federal Government.’” It’s hard to imagine Tim Walz or Jacob Frey   
   ever saying such a thing, but easy to imagine the law-abiding citizens   
   of Minneapolis being grateful for the relief.
