On Halloween, Andy Ngo conjures up some Antifa Boogeymen

Andy Ngo posted a youtube video purporting to be his home security footage. Ngo's video title is: CCTV: Antifa showed up to my family's home and the caption declares;
These six goons wearing print-out masks of my face approached my family's home at night on 31 Oct. 2019. They repeatedly rang the doorbell, pounded on the window, recorded footage of the property and gestured at the cameras. There were no candy bags. 
And the comments on Ngo's facebook post and youtube video are all the same; Hi-Point, this is what shotguns are for, second amendment, I wish they would come to my house, buy an ar15, stage the murder correctly, we can't let antifa get away with this... Conservatives yearning to murder.
 
Ngo is a well-documented fabulist. Ngo created the "cement-milkshake" lie during the Portland protests. Ngo claimed he was a simple journalist viciously attacked without provocation by Antifa. This garnered him multiple tv appearances on Faux and other rightwing propaganda outfits and... money.

Of course, the truth wasn't on Andy Ngo's side, in reality Ngo was fully involved in the Fascist group Patriot Prayer's plan of attacking protesters, including recording the resulting melee and of course, editorializing and portraying Antifa as the evil instigators who attacked without provocation.
Another person he includes in the “grifter” category: Andy Ngo, a conservative writer who’s built a Twitter persona around filming fights between antifa and right-wing extremists (that, and trying to convince people that hate crime allegations raised by LGBTQ+ Portlanders are simply “hoaxes”).

Ngo tags along with Patriot Prayer during demonstrations, hoping to catch footage of an altercation. Ben says Ngo doesn’t film Patriot Prayer protesters discussing strategies or motives. He only turns his camera on when members of antifa enter the scene.

“There’s an understanding,” he says, “that Patriot Prayer protects him and he protects them.”
In football, it's the old instigator technique. Football players before hi-def video used to be able to get away with committing an egregious infraction and when the other player retaliated and was caught by the referees, enjoy having him get penalized. The announcers, often old players themselves, would always say, it's always the guy who retaliates who gets caught.

Therefore, I tend to believe Ngo and some of his rightwing Hatriot extremist friends staged this incident with literal boogeymen. Ngo's whole MO is to lie and fabricate about Antifa. Coupling this with Ted Cruz's crusade to get Antifa labelled a Terrorist Group, conservatives are gearing up to do what they love the most; rounding-up and murdering millions under the guise of self-protection.

Climate Change strikes Chicago Unhappy All Hallow's Eve

My Elm tree hasn't even lost a leaf
For the second straight year, heavy snow falls have inundated the greater Chicagoland Area almost 2 months before the official start of winter. This year the snow falls on the 30th and 31st of October have struck not only while leaves are still on the trees but, while many of those leaves have yet to even changed to Fall colors. This 2019 Halloween is worse than the dreadful one in 1993.

It's depressing that the concerted effort of the Rightwing in America in denying the reality of climate change. Even the United States Navy knows Climate change is real and presents an existential threat to the Navy's Mission and the World.

Back in 2010 James Mattis recognized the threat of climate change as his forward to the United States Joint Forces Command, Joint Operating Environment report indicates;
From economic trends to climate change and vulnerability to cyber attack, we outline those trends that remind us we must stay alert to what is changing in the world if we intend to create a military as relevant and capable as we possess today.
Of course, under Rapist Racist Traitor Trump and his Destruction of the Nation tour, the Navy shut down the U.S. Navy Task Force Climate Change because it had been set up by President Barack Obama.

And why not? Trump himself won't face the repercussions of Climate Change. Trump's window of life is under 10 years. His children will be safely protected by the Billions of Dollars Trump is swindling from the US Department of Defense and Treasury and even his youngest child will, most likely, not suffer the disastrous effects of Trump's evil and ignorant regime.

Helloween!

In the Streets on Halloween
The Spirits will Arise
Make your choice, it's Hell or Paradise
Ahhhhhhhhh - It's Halloween
~ Halloween, Helloween
Republicans love Halloween because it's right before election time when they can continue to Trick the Voters of America and enjoy the Treat of funneling Trillions of Dollars to their Corporate Masters who then allow the Republicans to siphon off Billions of American Taxpayer Dollars to themselves, their families and their Cronies.

But, while the Trillions in Treats would be bad enough the Tricks they play in getting Voters riled up at the thought of food stamps and decent medical care for the poor is down right vicious.
