Violent “Antifa” filmed by Project Veritas is New York Times published journalist and death cult member

Two weeks ago, Project Veritas published an investigative journalism showing the inner workings of “Antifa”/anarchist paramilitary training at in Bushwick, Brooklyn.

Not all the individuals involved were identified, but National Justice can now confirm that the man above is Brooklyn-based Andrew Gittlitz (A.M. Gittlitz), an author and journalist who has been published in the New York Times and Vice and is a leading figure in a communist death cult called the “Posadists.”

According to multiple sources, Gittlitz and fellow cult members are integral parts of the New York City “antifa” scene. Gittlitz is the producer of the “Antifada” podcast (under the name AP Andy) and along with other members of his Posadist group, worked with to dox and send death threats to numerous Proud Boys and nationalists.

Gittlitz has written for the Trotskyite publishing house Verso Books, which is also deeply involved with underground antifa organizing, as well as articles throughout left-wing publications like The Jacobin, The Baffler, Salon, Vice and pieces in the now defunct explicitly “antifa” political violence.

One especially noteworthy contribution was for the New York Timesfor its “Red Century” celebration of the centennial of the Bolshevik revolution. This served to platform his crackpot apocalyptic UFO centered interpretation of communism.

Gittlitz is also friends with a number of connected people. For example, he is personal friends with the Southern Poverty Law Center’s (SPLC) .

Brighton Beach Nuclear War Cult

According to a source familiar with “antifa” in New York, Gittlitz belongs to a semi-religious communist group based out of South Brooklyn.

The group’s beliefs are inspired by J. Posadas (real name Homero Frasnelli), an Argentinian Trotskyist who in acceleration through the use of nuclear bombs to usher in an apocalypse that he theorized would end up ushering communism around the world. Extra terrestrials play a significant role in his and Gittlitz’s work.

In Brooklyn, followers of this doctrine are led by a Brighton Beach man named Yevgeny Lerner, who goes by “Comrade Communicator” and claims to have a special ability to speak to aliens.

Lerner, who has been a central organizer in NYC Antifa for a decade, is believed to be one of the individuals who controls the @NYCAntifa twitter account.

On the beaches of South Brooklyn, Gittlitz and other left-wing extremists take drugs and follow “Great Communicator” as he professes to make contact with beings from another galaxy.

Gittlitz is a deeply involved true-believer. Last year, he traveled to Cuba to an international communist conference on Posadism and attempt to recruit new members.

About 45 People Treated for Chlorine Gas, Smoke Exposure After Fire at Kadena Air Base Hazmat Site

TOKYO — A fire broke out Monday in a storage building for hazardous materials at a major U.S. air base on Japan's southern island of Okinawa, slightly injuring dozens of personnel who were exposed to smoke or chlorine gas, the U.S. military said.

The blaze began in the morning in the building at Kadena Air Base and was extinguished several hours later, the U.S. Air Force said.

Japanese television showed thick gray plumes of smoke billowing from the building, called the 18th wing Hazardous Materials Pharmacy. The area was closed off and personnel in the area were evacuated as firefighters battled the fire, the Air Force said in a statement.

About 45 people in the area were exposed to smoke and chlorine gas from the fire, but were treated and most have returned to duty, the statement said.

The cause of the fire is still unknown, it said. It said bio-environmental experts and emergency staff remained at the site to monitor the aftermath and ensure there was no risk to the community.

Kadena is the largest U.S. air base in the Far East.

More than half of about 50,000 U.S. troops in Japan are stationed on Okinawa under a bilateral security pact. Many residents of Okinawa have complained about environmental hazards, noise and crime related to the U.S. military presence.

In April, more than 140 tons of firefighting foam believed to contain cancer-causing substances leaked from Marine Air Station Futenma, which is at the center of a relocation dispute. Japan's Defense Ministry said last month that water samples showed no major problems.

An Interview With Anonymous — George Floyd Protests, Hacks, And Press Freedom

cough mossad

Anonymous has attacked several websites in the past few weeks as the collective returns to its glory days. This writer sat down to speak to the collective on a plethora of topics for one of the biggest exclusive interviews in a long time.

To start, no single individual represents the whole idea of Anonymous. However, there are security groups or secs within the collective which speak for the bigger idea; and if individual Anons agree, then they hop on the “train” for the agreed cause. As previously written, “there are no specific goals for the collective; there is, however, an overarching desire within shared by many to combat censorship, promote freedom of speech, and counter government control within the collective. Anti-oppression and supporting whistleblowers seems to be something most can also agree on.”

Anonymous actions have been taken against Sony, HB Gary, Aaron Barr, Operation Payback, and protests against organizations like Westboro Baptist, Church Of Scientology, and various governments worldwide including Iran, Egypt, Australia, and Ireland, as well as Occupy against police brutality to name a few of those targeted in early Ops.

The collective utilizes a number of techniques such as digital web sit-ins (DoS attacks) with LOIC (sending HTTP header requests to sites), “rudimentary exploits,” d0xing and sometimes the more extreme hacking of a database and leaking of its tables and contents for the Lulz.

Now, the Anonymous collective takes its aim once again at police brutality and corrupt police institutions that are abusing protesters. However, this time the police brutality isn’t just against protesters; it’ is also squeezed with a little flavor of systemic racial oppression. Anonymous recently defaced several websites in memory of George Floyd, a black man who was killed when white officer Derek Chauvin pressed his knee down on his neck.

Since the murder of Floyd, others have been killed as well, like Rayshard Brooks and Carlos Carson, which has amplified protests across the U.S. and even the globe. We have even seen protests raging as far away as continents such as Africa. This is a true last stand for people against systemic racism and the issue that affects every person no matter the color of your skin: police brutality.

Anonymous seeks to help protesters and aid in the overall fight against the murder and harm of innocents by police. However, that’s not all, after sitting down to speak to Anonymous, this writer learned that hacktivists not only defaced sites with memories of George Floyd, but the hackers also embedded court documents of U.S. President Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein — Epstein and Trump have been accused by numerous plaintiffs of rape when they were minors.

There was also a site owned by the Philippines government defaced with memes of Trump and the Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte stating that both men are against journalists.

Anonymous also professed its support for recently imprisoned WikiLeaks journalist Julian Assange, who revealed war crimes, corruption, money laundering by elitists, and general criminal culpability by governments worldwide. Assange faces his extradition hearing in September, which will ultimately decide the fate of not just one man, but the future of freedom of the press.

Tech Company Tied to China Cashes in on Small Business Relief

Ideanomics saw stock price soar as it received hundreds of thousands in PPP loans

A corporation with close ties to the Chinese government received hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars in pandemic relief money as small businesses struggled to access the fund.

Ideanomics, a U.S.-based tech company founded by Chinese billionaire Bruno Wu, was valued at more than $50 million based in part on its collaboration with Chinese provincial governments and state-owned enterprises dating back to its 2017 founding. The company, which specializes in financial technology and electric cars, collected $400,000 in forgivable loans from the taxpayer-funded Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) designed to aid small businesses hurt by the coronavirus, according to Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

But even as it chased taxpayer loans, Ideanomics reassured investors that the coronavirus posed little threat to its financial well-being, noting that its cash and cash equivalents had doubled between December 2019 and March 2020 as the deadly virus spread worldwide.

The company, which controls several Chinese corporations through its web of subsidiaries, has partnered with the Chinese government to facilitate its state-backed infrastructure projects. A Chinese provincial government is slated to invest in Ideanomics's Malaysian subsidiary to support Beijing's efforts to gain influence in Southeast Asia, according to its 2019 annual report to the SEC.

Ideanomics is one of several multimillion-dollar multinational corporations that benefited from PPP, which was created to support small businesses affected by the shutdowns caused by the pandemic. While the program was supposed to benefit businesses that would have laid off employees struggling during the economic shutdown, large corporations have sparked criticism by applying for and receiving millions in taxpayer dollars.

It is unclear whether Ideanomics has returned its PPP loans, and the company did not respond to a request for comment.

Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R., Pa.), a member of the congressional China Task Force, said that the PPP money should not be provided to China-linked firms such as Ideanomics and has referred the matter to the Department of the Treasury and the Small Business Administration.

"Given the popularity of this program, we must ensure dollars are reserved for American small businesses, the backbone of our national economy," Reschenthaler told the Washington Free Beacon. "Companies with ties to the Chinese Communist Party should not receive taxpayer-funded assistance programs."

The publicly traded company has surged on the NASDAQ since the small business relief fund was passed. Share prices, which plummeted to $0.30 on March 6, the lowest point in company history, have since rebounded to $2.05 per share as of Thursday.

104 Shot, 14 Dead in Chicago Over Father’s Day Weekend

The silence from mainstream media is deafening. They continue to drivel on about their hatred for President Trump, meanwhile not covering the news like we do here at The DC Patriot.

104 shot, 14 dead in the liberally ran cesspool known as Chicago. Among the dead are 5 children, including a 3-year-old boy and 13-year-old girl killed in separate shootings.

This was the biggest weekend of gun victims of the year in Chicago, as 104 people were shot.

Sunday afternoon Chicago Police Superintendent David Brown said, “Bullets don’t just tear apart the things they strike, bullets also tear apart families. bullets destroy neighborhoods and they ruin any sense of safety in a community.”

When five children are dead, and the mainstream media, the Democrats, and Black Lives Matter are silent. You know this movement isn’t about actually black lives that matter. If it was, they’d be protesting in the streets of Chicago.

One of the children was a 3-year-old who was shot in the back as his father was driving. The police said Mekay James was struck in the back at about 6:25 p.m. and his father they believe was the intended target. His father rushed him to West Suburban Medical Center in Oak Park, but he was later pronounced dead.

The only time a black life matters to Black Lives Matter, is when it’s a white police officer. This is sickening.

The Latest Reports About Wall Street’s Corruption

Here are the latest 10 news-reports from the indispensable best reporters on Wall Street’s corruptness, Pam and Russ Martens, at their indispensable news-site, “Wall Street on Parade”:

By Pam Martens and Russ Martens: June 22, 2020 ~ President Donald Trump has been sacking federal watchdogs at the speed of a bullet train. In just a six-week period in April and May, the President fired five Inspectors General of federal agencies. In last Friday night’s coup d’état, Attorney General William Barr, acting as consigliere for the President, ousted the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, the federal prosecutor that oversees prosecutions of Wall Street banks in that district. The privately owned Federal Reserve Bank of New York, which is in charge of the bulk of the Fed’s bailout programs, also resides in that district. Barr and the President want to put a man with zero experience as a prosecutor in charge of that office, Jay Clayton, who currently heads the Securities and Exchange Commission which has only civil enforcement powers. Clayton represented 8 of the … Continue reading →

As Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Face Criminal Probes, Barr Fires Top Prosecutor; Tries to Replace Him with Banks’ Former Lawyer, Jay Clayton

By Pam Martens and Russ Martens: June 20, 2020 ~ Shortly after 9 p.m. last evening, the U.S. Attorney General, William Barr, stunned prosecutors in the Southern District of New York with the announcement that their boss, Geoffrey Berman, was stepping down as U.S. Attorney in that District and would be replaced with the sitting Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, Jay Clayton, who lacks even a shred of criminal prosecution experience. What Clayton does have is a lot of experience representing Wall Street’s largest banks, like Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, both of whom are currently under intense criminal investigations by the Justice Department. Clayton was a former partner at Wall Street’s go-to law firm, Sullivan & Cromwell, which is currently representing Goldman in the criminal case and representing JPMorgan in various matters. The breaking news last night went downhill from there. Several hours after Barr’s announcement, Berman … Continue reading →

Gilead Starting Trial Of Spray Version Of Remdesivir, Anti-Inflammatory Combos

Clinical trials so far have shown remdesivir helped at least 70% of patients who were treated intravenously

The new trials will involve a spray version of the drug, originally developed to treat SARS

O'Day said the key is to treat the disease before the body's inflammatory response takes over

The head of Gilead Sciences (GILD) on Monday outlined the company’s plans for phase 1 trials of its COVID-19 treatment remdesivir, saying the key to defeating the coronavirus pandemic is finding a method of treating the ailment in its early stages, before the body’s inflammatory response kicks in.

The coming round of studies will focus on a spray version of the antiviral drug originally developed to treat SARS that can be administered outside the hospital.

In a blog post on Gilead’s Innovation site, Chairman and CEO Daniel O’Day said the key will be finding the right combination of remdesivir dosage and anti-inflammatory drugs. Use of the drug at infusion centers also will be studied.

“We have been keen to explore how remdesivir might work when combined with anti-inflammatory agents, particularly in the most severely ill patients,” O’Day said.

A U.K. study released last week indicated dexamethasone, an inexpensive corticosteroid, reduced death rates in the sickest COVID-19 patients by a third.

“For patients who are at high risk of disease progression, it could be particularly beneficial to start treatment outside the hospital. Our hope is that earlier intervention could help patients avoid hospitalization altogether,” O’Day said.

The Food and Drug Administration is allowing remdesivir to treat hospitalized COVID-19 patients under an emergency use order. Patients receive the drug intravenously. Studies so far have indicated the drug is more useful earlier in the disease progression, before patients are put on ventilators, than in the later stages, but at least 70% of patients showed improvement.

O’Day said the company plans to have 2 million doses of remdesivir available by the end of the year and millions more available through 2021. The existing supply has been donated, and voluntary licensing agreements have been set up with nine generic manufacturers, he said.

The phase 1 studies are planned to begin in healthy volunteers this week and expand to COVID-19 patients in August. Clinical trials involving children began last week, and Gilead is cooperating with an external group to study the drug’s effect in pregnant women. A further trial is planned for people with end-stage renal disease.

“Based on our knowledge of the disease so far, it seems that in the earlier stages of COVID-19, the virus itself is the primary driver of illness. In the later stages, the body’s inflammatory response may cause some of the most life-threatening aspects of the disease,” O’Day said.

CPAC Leader Warns 'Statues of Jesus Are Next.' Leftists Immediately Confirm His Concerns

n the wake of a new Cancel Culture iconoclasm, with Black Lives Matter and antifa activists toppling statues left and right, Matt Schlapp, chair of the American Conservative Union (ACU) that runs the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), warned that statues of Jesus would be next. While some leftists laughed at the idea, claiming that Jesus was one of them, others asked Schlapp to point out a few publicly-funded statues of Jesus, for … no reason, just asking.

“Statues of Jesus are next. It won’t end. Pray for the USA,” Schlapp tweeted. By Monday morning, the tweet had picked up nearly 10,000 “retweets” and nearly 30,000 “likes,” with nearly 10,000 “replies.”

Many mocked the idea. New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff scoffed, “That’s ridiculous. Wasn’t Jesus a person of color brutalized by an oppressive colonial regime? Jesus is a symbol of victims of violence, not of authoritarians who erect statues.”

The Pandora’s Box of Taking Down Confederate Monuments

Yet the new Cancel Culture iconoclasts have not limited their ire to symbols of “authoritarians.” While the statue-topplers may have started with Confederates like Robert E. Lee, they quickly moved on to Christopher Columbus, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson. On Friday, vandals targeted statues of Ulysses S. Grant (who proved instrumental to defeating the Confederacy and ending slavery in the U.S.), Francis Scott Key (writer of “The Star-Spangled Banner”), St. Junipero Serra (the leader of Spanish missions in California), and Miguel de Cervantes (author of Don Quixote).

It gets worse, however. Vandals targeted Mahatma Gandhi, leader of the Indian independence movement. They even spray-painted Black Lives Matter slogans on the Robert Gould Shaw 54th Regiment monument, which celebrates the first all-volunteer black regiment of the Union Army during the Civil War.

Schlapp’s prediction that “statues of Jesus are next” seems rather tame, almost like the weatherman warning about afternoon thundershowers in Minneapolis, Minn., right after a thunderstorm in St. Paul.

Yet Schlapp’s warning inspired outrage. “You’re comparing statues of secessionists, slavers, and a genocidal pedophile to Jesus!? What is wrong with you?” Chicago Alderman Carlos Ramirez-Rosa asked.

Yet the statue-topplers didn’t stop with secessionists and slavers. If they went for Gandhi and the black volunteers in the Civil War, there is no reason to suspect they won’t target statues of Jesus. Junipero Serra wasn’t exactly an evil oppressor, either.

Sure, Jesus may be the savior of the world, and at the very least He altered the course of history by encouraging people to care for the downtrodden and love their neighbors as themselves. Jesus likely wasn’t “white,” but the black Union volunteers weren’t exactly pale of skin, either. But no matter, a statue’s a statue, and “Black Lives Matter!”

Shortly after Schlapp issued his warning, Women’s March organizer Sophie Ellman-Golan tweeted, “Are there government-erected statues of Jesus on public property and if so can you kindly please let us know where.”

Reddit Starts Banning Users For Their Upvotes

Conde Nast's Reddit on Sunday started issuing temp bans against users for upvoting wrongthink.

This screenshot was shared by a user on r/WatchRedditDie, a subreddit which chronicles Reddit's aggressive censorship:

Reddit announced in February that users "who consistently upvote policy-breaking content within quarantined communities will receive automated warnings, followed by further consequences like a temporary or permanent suspension."

The level of censorship required to keep Reddit a far-left echo chamber is rather remarkable. They've banned every "far-right" subreddit in existence since 2016 and banned r/The_Donald through a mod takeover earlier this year.

Nonetheless, populist right-wing messages still manage to get through on various subs only to be censored by their petty mods.

Most of Reddit is controlled by just five mods and they censor users who dare to point this out.

Trump On Immigration: White House To Increase Restrictions On Guest Worker Programs

Immigration to the U.S. topped 1 million in 2016 but fell below the mark by 2018

President Trump is determined to limit the number of aliens both legal and undocumented from entering the U.S.

Most Americans favor developing a path to legal status for undocumented immigrants

President Trump on Monday was poised to sign an executive order imposing further restrictions on immigration on top of previous actions that cut legal immigration drastically and slashed grants of asylum. The new order is expected to focus on guest worker programs.

Trump has said pausing immigration will help Americans find jobs as the nation attempts to recover economically from the coronavirus pandemic. But the president long has displayed anti-immigration leanings, starting his campaign by accusing immigrating Mexicans of being rapists and drug dealers and, once elected, demanding billions of dollars to build a concrete and steel wall along the border with Mexico to block undocumented immigrants from crossing.

Trump has attempted to end the Deferred Action on Childhood Arrivals – DACA – program for people who were brought to the United States as children. He was blocked last week by the U.S. Supreme Court, which said his administration violated procedure in the way it attempted to eliminate deportation protections for so-called Dreamers. Trump then pledged to try again.

The coming order was expected to target H-1B, H-2B, L-1 and J-1 visas through the end of the year, Fox News reported.

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has warned against restricting immigration too tightly.

“As the economy rebounds, American businesses will need assurances that they can meet all their workforce needs. To that end, it is crucial that they have access to talent both domestically and from around the world,” chamber CEO Thomas Donohue said in a letter to Trump, adding that limiting access to foreign talent would undermine the recovery.

Legal immigration was more than 11% lower before the coronavirus pandemic hit. In 2018, legal immigration fell to 940,877 from a record 1.06 million in 2016. Last year, Trump unveiled a sweeping rule aimed at cutting immigration by half, blocking those who don’t meet certain income standards and denying green cards to those who received public assistance. Asylum grants were further restricted earlier this month with the implementation of a rule increasing the amount of proof needed to qualify.

Dan Tichenor, an immigration historian at the University of Oregon told NPR immigration restrictions become popular in times of crisis, and policies instituted during the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic imposed draconian restrictions that extended into 1965.

A Pew Research Center poll earlier this month indicated 75% of those queried favor giving permanent legal status to Dreamers and a like proportion favor developing a pathway to legal status for all undocumented immigrants.
