from ZeroHedge:
Update: President Trump escalated his threat to use the Insurrection Act (as we detailed here) earlier today, warning that state and city officials “have totally lost control.”
The origin of the chaos appears to be mostly manufactured and began hours after the legal observer was shot and killed last Wednesday:

Democrats are using the manufactured chaos, think of it as George Floyd 2.0, in an attempt to sway public opinion polls about Trump’s deportation policies. As Trump strips power from Democrats and the party’s unhinged left watches its illegal alien voter bloc get deported, those with their backs against the wall increasingly see violence as the only remaining option. Just wait until spring.

“If I needed it, I’d use it. It’s very powerful.”

As Michael Snyder detailed earlier via The Economic Collapse blog, what we have witnessed on the streets of Minneapolis this week has been absolutely stunning.
It was once such a beautiful city, but now it has been transformed into a war zone. For more than a decade, I have been relentlessly warning my readers that civil unrest would be one of the core elements of the coming “perfect storm”, and now we are literally watching violent clashes between radical leftists and federal authorities play out right in front of our eyes. In fact, it is getting so bad that President Trump is threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act. That hasn’t happened since the Los Angeles riots of 1992. If we keep going down this path, will we soon see martial law in major U.S. cities?
