During the presidential debate he moderated on Tuesday, Chris Wallace demanded that President Trump disavow white supremacists — the Proud Boys.
I don’t know much about Proud Boys but I know they are responsible for only 10 arrests in four years and their members only number in the hundreds. That’s hardly enough to draw moral equivalence to the hundreds of thousands of BLM and Antifa and their more than 10,000 arrests.
A high-ranking member of the FBI in Oregon said that the agency does not designate the Proud Boys as an extremist group, contradicting a report from a law enforcement official in Washington state in November 2018.
Special Agent in Charge Renn Cannon said in December 2018 that there was a misinterpretation during a slide-show presentation hosted for officials at the Clark County Sheriff’s Office in Vancouver, Wash., according to the Oregonian.
And there is something else I know. Wallace should have known that the leader of the Proud Boys is black and they protect people from Joe Biden’s peeps, Antifa and BLM — who Biden would NOT condemn. He should have corrected Joe Biden, but Wallace came without facts of any kind. It’s one thing to not fact-check and quite another to smear a group to the world.
The Wallace question:
People are missing that when Wallace asked if Trump would condemn white supremacists HE SPECIFICALLY ASKED Trump to tell them to “stand down.”
Trump said “sure” 3x and then used Wallace’s OWN WORDS to tell Proud Boys to “stand down.”

On Wednesday Proud Boy International Chairman Enrique Tarrio — an African-Hispanic American — condemned the smear.
And why is the group controversial? They go to Antifa and BLM riots to protect other Americans.
Watch:
The head of the controversial Proud Boys told Sky News he did not see President Trump’s words during the presidential debate as an endorsement of his group, and that Joe Biden had made a “crucial mistake” in naming them as racists.

SOME RESPONSES
Just saw my local NBC news in Detroit label them as white supremacists, even as they had one of their leaders, who is Cuban, on the screen and they said this.
Can anyone do any research anymore? Or use their freakin’ eyeballs?!

I suppose Proud Boys are quite controversial as they never appear with skateboards, bricks, or Molotov cocktails like Antifa. pic.twitter.com/6tocK1Jmk2

The obsession by certain reporters over racism and white supremacy should be investigated for THEIR own racist tendencies. I’m firmly believing it is Their Own guilt that is coming out by questioning Trump. They are feeling guilty for being the racists They Are. There was a video clip of a hot mic that caught a number of racist remarks by… Read more »
It’s Even WORSE than I thought. Roberts should be Fired Immediately, so he can go home to CNN. The next reporter is going nuts also. I’m not able to watch this in One setting.
John Roberts says he was looking for a “definitive statement” in the briefing today. So he was hammered on Twitter and HIS response is “the question needed to be asked”. What a low-life SOB. Who gives a Damn what Republicans have to say about it. He has the damn Gall to say, “stop deflecting, stop blaming the media”. Sounds like… Read more »
THIS is what we SHOULD be worried about. He’s a Former FBI Assistant Director. How many people like this are in the damn Federal Government. And we’re suppose to be worried about some obscure white groups that can’t do a thing. This is OUR damn Government. “VET” a candidate. It’s called an election DUMB ASS. How many idiots like this… Read more »
Now this is something that burns me to no end. I really wish someone would ask Me that question. Right off the bat I would so NO. This has to be about the dumbest thing ever conceived. “Do you disavow”, “condemn”, or “condemn in the strongest possible terms”. It meaningless garbage and shouldn’t be given the dignity of an answer.… Read more »
The FBI is too busy with garage pulls and attempted coups to stop the fearful menace of the white supremes lurking around every corner with Nazis.
Bull Connors is setting up a length of fire hose by the segregated fountains because 1964 is forever.
Are the white supremes any good? Or is it a Motown ripoff?
Here’s another lie of the left so easily exposed by some great reporting.
