BLM Activist Got On Chauvin Jury After Insisting He Never Attended An Anti-Police Protest. He Attended An Anti-Police Protest Last Year.

Chauvin juror Brandon Mitchell is now encouraging others to get on juries to "spark some change"

Brandon Mitchell, 31, was able to make it onto the Derek Chauvin jury after he checked "no" when asked if he or anyone close to him had "participated in protests about police use of force or police brutality."

On Sunday, a photo surfaced of Mitchell wearing a "GET YOUR KNEE OFF OUR NECKS," "BLM" shirt and a "Black Lives Matter" hat while at a protest against police brutality in Washington, DC in August 2020.

On Monday, Mitchell admitted that he attended the "March on Washington" while speaking with the Star Tribune (who buried the lead).

"I'd never been to [Washington] D.C.," Mitchell said Monday of his reasons for attending the event. "The opportunity to go to D.C., the opportunity to be around thousands and thousands of Black people; I just thought it was a good opportunity to be a part of something."

[...] Mitchell said the social media post was made by his uncle, who is the father of one of the cousins pictured, and appears to be "a partial real post." However, he said, he has no recollection of wearing or owning the shirt.

Mitchell said the event was commemorating the 57th anniversary of King's famous speech, which advocated for civil and economic rights for Blacks, and is credited with helping to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The event was "100% not" a march for Floyd, Mitchell said, adding, "It was directly related to MLK's March on Washington from the '60s … The date of the March on Washington is the date."

Philonese Floyd, George Floyd's brother, said while speaking on stage during the March on Washington that it was a march for Floyd.

One of the main points of the march was to demand the passage of the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act:

Fake News Still Gaslighting America with Phony Polls

Opinion polls, particularly in the buildup to a presidential election, are not designed to reflect public opinion, but instead to shape it. For the media, objectivity is only of historic interest, a journalistic tenet from a bygone era. Now most of the media is embedded within the Democrat party, serving as an advocacy arm or political action committee to influence elections and agendas.

A CNN staffer, who bragged that he was “one step down” from a director, admitted to an undercover Tinder date, actually a real journalist working for James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas, that CNN was “creating a story” that “we didn’t know anything about,” calling it “propaganda” to help remove President Trump from office. The epitome of fake news.

Fake news media have many gaslighting tools at their disposal. Some outlets doctor audio or video tapes to make their “bad guy” appear racist or doing something illegal. Or, they make their “good guy” look like Mother Teresa. Recipients of this treatment range from law enforcement and Ferguson’s Gentle Giant Michael Brown, to George Zimmerman, and even President Donald Trump.

Many cable news channels, or newspapers simply say or print falsehoods, as in Trump-Russia collusion, Russian bounties on American soldiers, or the cause of death of a Capitol Police officer. The error or correction, if acknowledged at all, is relegated to a couple of lines buried in back of the newspaper several days or more later.

Opinion polls are a well-known and effective method of shaping opinion. These methods have been well described and include sampling whoever answers the phone versus likely voters, the latter being a practice of Rasmussen Reports in their high accurate presidential opinion polls. Oversampling Democrats is another fraudulent way to produce a poll result favoring the DNC media agenda.

President Biden last week addressed Congress, at least those select few members invited to listen to Sleepy Joe propose new spending in excess of $4 trillion, an amount larger than what the federal government takes in annually through already-confiscatory taxes.

Despite most or all members of Congress, as well as the president and vice president, already being vaccinated, the sparse audience was wearing masks and sitting at least six feet apart. If fully vaccinated, why were the attendees acting as though they were not? If the government message is that the vaccine works and everyone should take it, why are the top government leaders sending the opposite message?

Cable news anchors from CNN and MSNBC, joined by Fox News’s Chris Wallace, were gushing over Biden’s speech, some nearly in tears, a far cry from any Trump speech reaction over the past four years. CNN commissioned a poll to support their lovefest over Biden’s spendfest speech.

Their headline on the day after Biden’s speech was “7 in 10 who watched say Biden’s speech left them feeling optimistic.”

Start with the bit about “who watched.” How many Americans gave up an hour of their evening to watch what the media thought was a speech on par with Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I have a dream” speech? Not too many.

Charlie Kirk tweeted out TV ratings for presidential addresses.

The last figure was the sum total of the three main legacy television networks - CBS, ABC, and NBC, plus Fox News. Nielsen reports the audience from more sources at 26.9 million. Either way, Biden drew considerably less of the audience that Trump did in his first congressional address and far less than...

SAN FRANCISCO, CA –-(Ammoland.com)- A panel of three judges out of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals vacated a district court’s order that granted a motion from 22 states plus the District of Columbia that prevented the Department of State from removing 3D printed firearms associated with 3D printing files from the U.S. Munitions List – much to DEFCAD’s relief.

DEFCAD and the Department of State

Under the Obama administration, the Department of State designated common 3D printing files as a “defense article.” All defense articles are regulated for import and export. Once something is designated a defense article, it is also placed on the U.S. Munitions List. International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR) then regulates the item. The Department of Commerce is the government organization that regulates non-Munitions List items under the Export Control Reform Act by placing them on the Commerce Control List (CCL).

In May of 2018, the Department of State proposed a rule that would remove 3D-printed firearms files from the Munitions List, which would remove ITAR rules. The 3D-printed gun file instructions would then be placed on the CCL. During the same period, the Department of Commerce proposed its own rules when dealing with 3D-printed gun files. Although the CCL designation is still strict, it is not as heavily regulated as the Munitions List.

The 22 states in the District of Columbia originally argued that the Department of State failed to comply with the notice requirements under the Administration Procedure Act (APA). The APA governs how government agencies propose and establish regulations.

The defendants argued that the APA does not give the U.S. Federal Courts oversight over an agency’s actions. The District Court disagreed with these defendants and issued a preliminary injunction to the rule change in 2018.

Fast forward to 2021, and the panel ruled that the “Control Act could only be read one way: Congress precluded judicial review of both of the designation and undesignation of items as defensive articles.”

The court majority is now ruling that the states did not show that they would likely succeed on the case’s merits. Preliminary injunctions are issued based on the likelihood a lawsuit would succeed on the merits.

The decision stated “the reviewability of the Commerce Final Rule. The panel held that Congress not only barred APA challenges to Commerce’s Reform Act functions, it rendered them, in effect, judicially unreviewable.”

The dissenting judge was District Judge Robert Whaley. He said that he would affirm the district’s court order that granted the preliminary injunction. He fears that the majority ruling would allow a regulatory system without any oversight. Judge Whaley believed that the case would likely succeed.

Now It’s Too Late! The Files Have Already Been Set Free!

As of the time of this post, all the 3D Gun files subject to the original injunction have now been released onto the world wide web and can no longer be regulated, restricted, or banned by courts, states, or governments. “You can’t stop the signal Mal”

Cody Wilson and Defense Distributed have been stifled for the last three years because of the previous injunction. Since the court has now vacated the original injunction, they have now released all their files and transfer them to the public. Since ITAR can’t regulate files in the public domain, the move prevents the Biden administration from once again using ITAR to restrict access to...
