The last time William Barr was attorney general of the United States—nearly two decades ago—violent crime in the nation was at an all-time high. And now, after years of decline, the year of COVID has see another surge.
The response to the surge has been Operation Legend, a federal law enforcement initiative aimed at reducing violent crime across the United States through the intentional devotion of federal resources. The program is active in nine cities, including Indianapolis.
Barr traveled to Indianapolis on Thursday to meet with local law enforcement officials, including Southern Indiana U.S. Attorney Josh Minkler and Indianapolis Police Chief Randal Taylor, among other local law enforcement stakeholders. The group was scheduled for a working lunch to discuss crime in Indianapolis, and the AG held a brief press conference prior to discuss how Operation Legend has been used in the Circle City.

Interesting that reporters were dismissed from the second half of the meeting. What needs to be kept secret?
NEW VIDEO! #PleaseSaveTheseChildren
If this does not get a lump in your throat, nothing will.
NEW VIDEO! #PleaseSaveTheseChildren
If you don't have a bright line for crimes against children you don't have a line.
And if you support Donald Trump after watching this video you don't have a soul either.

Report: Right-Wing Militia Groups 'Pose A Serious Threat' To Voters
Source: huff post

Researchers found that swing states are particularly vulnerable to militia activity around the 2020 election.
................
............
Over the past several months, private militias “have become more assertive,” the two organizations found in a report published Thursday, titled “Standing By: Right-Wing Militia Groups & The US Election.” The report cites kidnapping plots targeting elected officials and interventions in protests throughout the country. Parts of Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Oregon are at the highest risk of increased militia activity around the election, it says, while parts of North Carolina, Texas, Virginia, California and New Mexico are at a moderate risk. The report identifies the Three Percenters, Patriot Prayer, Proud Boys and Boogaloo Bois as groups that pose a “high” or “very high” potential for violence.

When militia members were arrested earlier this month for plotting to kidnap Michigan’s Democratic governor, Gretchen Whitmer, the president seemed to delight in their animus toward her, encouraging a “lock her up” chant at a campaign rally in the state days later. His son Donald Trump Jr. has asked “every able-bodied man, woman to join the Army for Trump’s election security operation,” an effort to recruit poll watchers who believe Democrats are trying to steal the election.
...................

Militia activity is expected to be higher in competitive spaces like swing states, the report found, where armed groups may work to repress votes for Trump’s opponents. Armed groups appear to be particularly active in areas where there have been protests against the lockdowns aimed at limiting the spread of the coronavirus — an effort militias perceive as an assault on their freedom — and places that have seen Black Lives Matter protests — which militias view as “leftist coup” activities.
Locations where militia members have friendly relationships with members of law enforcement are likely to see higher levels of militia activity, the report found. In Kenosha, Wisconsin, law enforcement officers were recorded on video handing water to a group of militia members and telling them, “We appreciate you guys, we really do,” shortly before 17-year-old vigilante Kyle Rittenhouse fatally shot two people in late August. .......................................
