California city takes immediate action after 'racist' banner declaring 'White Lives Matter' found in park

'The city is disgusted by this despicable act of vandalism'

Officials in a northern California promptly removed a "White Lives Matter" that was posted on city property over the weekend, declaring the sign a "despicable act of vandalism."

According to KPIX-TV, police in Union City — a town not far from Oakland — took down the banner early Saturday morning. Law enforcement conducted an investigation into the banner, but concluded that no crime had been committed.

The crux of the issue, according to Union City Mayor Carol Dutra-Vernaci, is that whoever erected the banner did not have the proper permit to place it on city-owned property.

In a statement, the city said it was "disgusted" by the "racist" sign.

"The city is disgusted by this despicable act of vandalism that has occurred on the heels of the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last week and on the weekend of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday that celebrates the life and achievements of this important civil rights leader," the city said, KTVU-TV reported.

City leaders also said they will "remain on heightened alert to make sure racist incidences like this do not happen again in our community."

Saying 'White Lives Matter' is racist?

According to the Anti-Defamation League, the phrase "White Lives Matter" is a racist dog whistle, but "Black Lives Matter" is not.

"White Lives Matter" is a white supremacist phrase that originated in early 2015 as a racist response to the Black Lives Matter movement, which arose to protest against police brutality against African-Americans and garnered considerable publicity in 2014 for protests in Ferguson, Missouri, following the shooting death of Michael Brown at the hands of a Ferguson police officer.

Since 2015, white supremacists in several states, especially members of the Texas-based white supremacist group Aryan Renaissance Society, have promoted the slogan "White Lives Matter" with flyers and protests, forming a loose campaign to popularize the phrase. By 2016 other white supremacist groups, including Ku Klux Klan groups, were also using the slogan, and it soon became a staple among white supremacist mantras, continuing even after the original campaigners ceased their activities.

Indeed, an NAACP official near Union City, Freddye Davis, told KPIX that whoever erected the "White Lives Matter" banner does not understand the phrase "Black Lives Matter."

"It does not mean that other lives [don't] matter because they do. But if you look at history, the Black lives are the ones that have gotten the worse end of the stick," Davis said.

Meanwhile, cities nationwide painted "Black Lives Matter" murals last summer following the tragic death of George Floyd.

Newly Released Testimony Shows the FBI Knew the Russia Collusion Story Was Bogus

Senator Lindsey Graham, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has released several hundred more documents from his committee’s investigation into the origins of the FBI investigation into possible collusion between Russia and the 2016 Trump campaign for president. Included in the document dump was the transcript of closed testimony given last June by former Justice Department official Dana J. Boente.

Boente was acting deputy attorney general in charge of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation for several months in 2017 and told the committee that he was briefed on the program at least 6 times.

Washington Times:

“I felt that it was important to know something about it,” said Mr. Boente, according to a transcript. “I don’t know if and when I was told that. I think — I recall being told at some point, maybe not February, between February and April, because thankfully my involvement ended in April, that there was no evidence of collusion with the Trump campaign.”

The FBI not only didn’t shut down the probe. They expanded it.

During this time, the FBI also won a judge’s approval for continued wiretapping of campaign volunteer Carter Page. The FBI’s affidavit was based almost exclusively on evidence provided by a Democratic Party-financed dossier prepared by ex-British spy Christopher Steele and sourced to the Kremlin.

The FBI learned in January that Mr. Steele’s main source, Russian-born Igor Danchenko, had told agents his information was unconfirmed hearsay. But the FBI continued to rely on the dossier.

Graham was obviously upset when he spoke of what was in the transcripts.

The Sun:

In a statement, Graham said: “I believe that Crossfire Hurricane was one of the most incompetent and corrupt investigations in the history of the FBI and DOJ.”

The senator added the committee had released “as much material as possible” – but said some material had been withheld as it was still “classified”.

Graham slammed the leadership of the FBI under James Comey and Andrew McCabe, saying it was either “grossly incompetent” or they “knowingly allowed tremendous misdeeds”.

Why didn’t the FBI and Justice drop a bogus investigation into a sitting president of the United States? Graham said: “The only logical explanation is that the investigators wanted an outcome because of their bias.”

But the FBI would never let their biases interfere with their professional judgment, right?

Syria Lowers Army Readiness Level For The First Time In Nine Years

President Bashar al-Assad has issued a command lowering the Syrian Armed Forces level of readiness for the first time in nine years.

The command, which was issued on January 10, lowered the level of readiness at several army branches as it follows:

The level of readiness at the army’s administrative headquarters was lowered from 66 to 33%

The level of readiness at the army’s administrative branches and sub-branches was lowered from 80 to 50%

The level of readiness at the Syrian Arab Army was lowered from 100 to 80%

The leave of readiness at the Syrian Arab Navy was lowered from 100 to 80%

The level of readiness at the army’s medical service was not lowered as it is currently supporting the country’s efforts against the COVID-19 pandemic.

The new measures should allow the army to release thousands of soldiers from service in the near future. Those who will be kept will receive more day offs. This will improve the morale of Syrian service members.

In the last few years, the army released tens of thousands of soldiers and reserve officers from active service following a series of military achievements in Syria’s northern, southern and central regions.

The decision to lower the Syrian military’s readiness reflect an improvement in the overall situation in the country. The move also confirms that the Syrian military has overcome the human resources shortage, which was a serious issue in the early years of the conflict when the level of readiness was first raised.

=HERE THEY ARE: The Five Most Obvious Acts of Fraud in the 2020 Election that You Are No Longer Allowed to Discuss

For months now, since Election night on November 3rd, The Gateway Pundit has been exposing the massive and unprecedented fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

The days when Democrats find 500 ballots in a trunk of a car are over. Today their election fraud includes likely every segment of the election process from illegal voters to fraudulent counting.

Since the US Capitol rioting on January 6th the Democrat-Media Complex, including the tech giants, will no longer allow ANY discussion on fraud in the 2020 election. Democrats and RINO Republicans like Lindsey Graham are determined to shut this discussion down.

This is a lie.

They are trying to control what you can say, read or see.

In response to this media gaslighting today we are releasing our list of the Five Most Significant Acts of Fraud in the 2020 election.

FIVE MOST SIGNIFICANT ACTS OF FRAUD IN THE 2020 ELECTION:

1.) The Georgia Late Night Hidden Suitcase Hoist:

in late December President Trump tweeted out an OANN report on a Gateway Pundit investigation of the Atlanta suitcase voter fraud scandal.

The Gateway Pundit was first to identify Ruby Freeman, her daughter Wandrea “Shaye” Moss, and their boss Ralph Jones, Sr. in the infamous suitcase ballot hoist.

We later reported on Ruby Freeman running the same batch of ballots through the counting machines at least three times after these Democrat operatives cleared the room of observers!

President Trump tweeted this OANN and Gateway Pundit video.

Shaye Moss is the same person who called out for observers to go home late on election night before the ballot hoist.

Ralph Jones, Sr. is ON AUDIO telling reporters he was going to shut down the State Farm Center early and send observers home. This was BEFORE the suitcase ballot hoist!
