The Left Learned It’s Not Above the Law

Yesterday was a tough day for Antifa. After years of getting away with chaos, vandalism, rioting, and assaults, they finally learned there are consequences for their actions. Several Antifa members were sentenced to a total of 450 years in prison for their roles in an anti-ICE terror plot last year. This includes a century behind bars for Benjamin Song, who shot a responding police officer, wounding him. Others received between 50 and 70 years, with one getting three decades in prison. 

It’s about time.

For far too long, Leftists have run roughshod over our justice system, believing that they are above the law. This has caused nothing but havoc, leading to billions in property damage and tremendous loss of life thanks to soft-on-crime policies that release violent repeat offenders into our communities.

Rather than remember that justice is blind and laws apply to everyone, the same people who seal-clapped the Biden DOJ being weaponized against President Trump, Republicans, and pro-lifers are suddenly appalled that some of their own are actually facing justice.

Contrary to the popular narratives on the Left, no officers were killed on January 6. Only one woman, who was unarmed, was. These Antifa terrorists planned their actions, shot a cop, and are facing the just consequences of their actions.

Rashida Tlaib, who hasn’t met a criminal she didn’t love, blamed the ‘fascism’ of the Trump administration for the sentences.

This is a sitting Congresswoman who seems perfectly fine with acts of terrorism directed at law enforcement officers. Tlaib embodies the modern Democratic Party, by the way, which despises the police, immigration enforcement, and our sovereign borders.

Remember: the Biden DOJ called Catholics, veterans, and concerned parents ‘domestic terrorists.’ They made a point to prosecute pro-lifers, dreamed about imprisoning nuns, and targeted Republican lawmakers. But President Trump is the fascist one?

And the framing on this is amazing, too. This wasn’t an anti-ICE ‘protest.’ It was a terrorist action by a designated terrorist organization.

These ‘protesters’ shot a cop. They brought 11 weapons, fireworks, and showed up at the facility with the aim of harming ICE agents and law enforcement. This was not, as some called it, a ‘noise demo’ 

Hennessy-Fiske works for the Washington Post, by the way, in case you were wondering if the quality of journalism there has improved at all. It hasn’t.

Actions have consequences. That’s a lesson the Left needs to learn, and quickly, before the Democrats get back into power. If they don’t, we’ll never be rid of these terrorists who seek to destroy America and undermine our laws and our Constitution.
