Friday, Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) said he anticipated a more proactive response to those committing acts of vandalism to federal statues and monuments based on interactions he had with Trump administration officials.
Brooks told Mobile, AL radio’s FM Talk 106.5 the feds were limited in what they could do on the local levels. He explained much of the property damage resulting from civil unrest in many places around the country could be attributed to politics.
“On the federal level, we are going to be enforcing the law,” he said. “But not all destruction of property, not all the riots involve violations of federal statutes. That’s where you get into municipal ordinances or state laws. That’s where you get into the politics of whether it is advantageous or disadvantageous for the mayors or the governors to push for enforcement of these laws. They’re counting heads. They’re afraid they’re going to lose votes if they enforce the law. That is why the rioting has gotten as bad as it has. And that’s what we’re looking at nationwide the more these socialist Democrats gain power.”

This is very good news. Better yet, more and more judges are now in place to help our cause. Taking control of the judiciary (not complete yet) is one of Trump's biggest achievements and the most important, since this will allow him to assume total control over the country. He will ensure freedom and liberty!!!
I'm stunned! Bureaucrats would rather let our whole country be destroyed than to risk losing their lofty positions of fame and fortune. How self serving can they be? Truly, they do not deserve their elected positions and should RESIGN‼️.
