These protesters say they will do whatever it takes to keep Trump from enacting his agenda, and many of them have shown a willingness to destroy public property, assault law enforcement officers and inflict violence upon their fellow citizens.

REUTERS/Adrees Latif Inauguration Day provided a hint of what to expect from the far left during Trumps presidency: well-organized protests that feature alarmist rhetoric and have a proclivity to devolve into anarchic violence. Rioters smashed storefront windows, assaulted innocent bystanders and torched a limo all in the name of opposing Trump. D.C.s inauguration weekend violence was believed to be mostly the work of a group calling themselves DisruptJ20, which began planning to disrupt the inauguration and destroy property weeks in advance.

REUTERS/Bryan Woolston DisruptJ20 advocates using direct action tactics, which the group describes as taking collective action to make social change without giving power over to an authority or middle person. We dont ask permission or put our faith in electoral politics, instead, we use our bodies to stop the smooth operation of the system we oppose, the groups website states, citing Black Lives Matters efforts to shut down highways as an example of the kind of disruption they have in mind. The group is open about its aim to become an ungovernable force this winter. A website called Ungovernable 2017 helped coordinate DisruptJ20s DC efforts with anti-Trump protests around the country. Some groups endorsed a pledge to never give Trump the chance to govern. As we resist, we will create new governing institutions, new economic relationships, and new ways of being human, the pledge reads. Are you concerned about these groups?

It's tempting to say the left is coming unhinged,but that's pretty much a requirement for anyone that wants to become a leftist. I hate to admit it,but I am a little bit shocked at the activity and rhetoric if the Party People Republicans,both in office and the supporters of the RINO's in office. It's starting to look like they are finally going to drop their facade of being conservatives,and come right out and admit they are state and global fascists instead of supporters of individual freedoms.
To paraphrase Ann Coulter the Party People are swine interested only in their careers.
