For months now, Fox News host Tucker Carlson has been demanding that the Trump administration “frog-march” the leaders of the social justice movement Black Lives Matter in front of television cameras in a series of “mass arrests” and charge them as domestic terrorists.

On Monday night, Acting Department of Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf informed the far-right Fox News star that he may soon get his wish.

In light of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s speech denouncing rioting and looting among the nationwide protests against police brutality, Carlson grumbled about the former vice president warning that Trump is inciting violence and that it could get worse if Trump is re-elected.

“Are you worried about that?” Carlson asked Wolf.

Wolf said Biden’s warning was a “delusional statement” and that the DHS presence in Portland during recent protests didn’t contribute to an increase in violent protests.

“I think most Americans understand what is going on out there,” Wolf added. “Really, the cause of all of this is state officials, local officials not taking this seriously from day one.”

6. Nazi tactics [the big lie] and a few pages ripped from the abuser's playbook:

gaslighting, and DARVO writ large.

DARVO is an acronym for a response observed in many guilty people when accused of misconduct. It stands for Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim-Offender. DARVO is a clear and simple pattern that you will see everywhere once you learn to identify it, like the Fibonacci sequence of aggressors.

From the Wikipedia page:

DARVO is an acronym used to describe a common strategy of abusers: deny the abuse, then attack the victim for attempting to make them accountable for their offense, thereby reversing victim and offender. …

Gaslighters, those who respond with DARVO when confronted about bad behavior, feed on your self-doubt. Even people who start out quite sure of themselves, if mistreated enough, become mentally and emotionally malleable. The more you’ve been attacked, whether physically, sexually, or emotionally, the easier it is for other people to destabilize you going forward.

Apologies for dragging this over from another thread, but it just can't be repeated enough: trump, with media help, is gaslighting the hell out of the country.

7. Who are the leaders of BLM?

It's not an organized group, is it? Isn't BLM like Antifa, a name for a loose coalition of individual activists and groups who have a similar philosophy?

9. I just know in Chicago the looting is not BLM it is by organized crime and

it makes sense to have the FBI go after them. They are stealing Uhauls days before the looting. Also, the looting does not happen during the rallies. It happens in the middle of the night triggered by social media.

Similar things seem to be happening in Kenosha. The looting was after curfew when the BLM protests had ended and crowds dispersed.

It is all confusing and some people love it that way.

11. They are opportunists.... both the looters and the repubs.

12. +1

trump et al are deliberately conflating BLM protests and organized crime looting. Media has not made enough of a consistent effort to separate them either.

10. You mean Acting Illegally Appointed DHS chief Stooge placeholder?

Who has no legal standing in his position except for any his fellow Nazi Stooges might afford him?

He's just playing at cops and imaginary robbers.

13. What's next?

Is trump going to create internment camps for BLM? black triangles? I'm so afraid for my fellow Americans.

[NightWatcher]

14. Lay low on these fruitless protests and save your powder for the real charge. when it's called for.

And believe me, you'll know when it's time.

The protests are just getting people maced by trumpians and put on commercial B-roll for a country that needs a dictator (you know, his campaign ads).

15. Not BLM, but as it applies to the Covid response, and in too many places, truer words never spoken:

“I think most Americans understand what is going on out there,” Wolf added. “Really, the cause of all of this is state officials, local officials not taking this seriously from day one.”

I'd add, especially tRump, those aligned with him and his federal agencies.
