Here is the one hundred eighty-third article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s winner is Republican Ammosexual terrorist, Kyle Rittenhouse. He is so honored for murdering two peaceful BLM protestors, while enacting the policies of his crazed Fuhrer, Donald Trump*.

A teenager who walked among protesters in Kenosha, Wis., carrying a military-style semi-automatic rifle was arrested and faces a charge of first-degree intentional homicide in connection with shootings that left two people dead on Tuesday night.

Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old Illinois resident, appeared on multiple videos taken throughout the night by protesters and bystanders who chronicled the events as peaceful protests gave way to chaos, with demonstrators, armed civilians and others facing off against one another and the police in the darkened streets.

The New York Times’s Visual Investigations unit analyzed hours of footage to track Mr. Rittenhouse’s movements in the moments leading up to, and during, the shootings.

Who is Kyle Rittenhouse?

Mr. Rittenhouse was arrested early Wednesday in his hometown, Antioch, Ill., which is about 30 minutes southwest of the protests in Kenosha, just over the state line.

Multiple posts on his social media accounts proclaim support for pro-police causes like the Blue Lives Matter movement and Humanize the Badge, a nonprofit that he ran a Facebook fund-raiser for on his 16th birthday.

His posts also suggest a strong affinity for guns, with videos showing Mr. Rittenhouse taking backyard target practice, posing with guns and assembling a weapon.

But many details about both his background and his motivations for walking around the Kenosha protests carrying a military-style semi-automatic rifle are still emerging…

I suspect that, if he is convicted, Trump* will pardon him. And when he turns eighteen, the Republican Reich will hire him as one of their Gestapo Storm Troopers.

Events Leading To Shooting That Left 2 Dead In Kenosha Played Out On Social Media

Why is it that police weren’t offering water to black people, but were to armed Republican terrorists? Why were police helping them escape justice for the mayhem they caused. There is no question that terrorist Republican murderer Rittenhouse deserves this parade. Do the police also deserve one as criminal accessories before and after the fact?

Here is the one hundred eighty-second article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s winner is Republican anti-immigration activist and conspiracy theorist, Mary Ann Mendoza, the so-called “Angel Mom”. She is so honored for “cancelling” her appearance at the RNC after caught posting and deleting an anti-Semitic tweet referencing to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and QAnon.

Mary Ann Mendoza, a so-called “Angel mom,” was scheduled to speak Tuesday for the second night of the Republican National Convention. Hours before she was set to appear before the country, Mendoza sent out a tweet sharing a vile and pernicious anti-Semitic conspiracy theory. CNN reported that she will no longer appear at the event.

The Daily Beast was among the first outlets to report on the tweet. It was deleted after she posted it, but a screenshot was preserved below.

The thread it linked to remained, detailing a darkly conspiratorial history claiming that Jewish bankers formed a cabal and plotted against the rest of the world. It said, in part, that this plan sought to: “Use Economic Warfare. Rob The ‘Goyim’ Of Their Landed Properties And Industries With A Combination Of High Taxes And Unfair Competition. … Make The Goyim Destroy Each Other So There Will Only Be The Proletariat Left In The World, With A Few Millionaires Devoted To Our Cause, And Sufficient Police And Soldiers To Protect Our Interest.”

This is as clear and indisputable as anti-Semitism gets. The theory also included references to the modern QAnon conspiracy theory… RESIST!!

She cancelled, because Trump* and the Republican Reich are trying to hide their true beliefs from voters. Doesn’t that rate a Parade?

Here is the one hundred eighty-first article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s winner is the de facto head of the US Republican Party, Vladimir Putin [R-RU]. He is so honored for giving his brown-nose sycophant protégé, criminal Fuhrer Trump*, a lesson on how to best deal with a political opponent.

Russia’s most prominent Kremlin critic, Alexei Navalny, was in critical condition in a German hospital Saturday, suffering from suspected poisoning, as doctors conducted tests after an emergency flight from Russia.

A statement from the Charité hospital in Berlin said a “comprehensive medical exam” was underway on Navalny, 44, who has been in a coma since collapsing early Thursday aboard a plane from the Siberian city Tomsk to Moscow.

His spokeswoman and others suspect he was the target of a deliberate poisoning — a method used before by Russian agents — possibly in tea he drank at an airport cafe. Russian doctors said they did not find toxins in Navalny’s system.

“Once that is complete, and after speaking with the family, the medical staff will provide further details about the sickness and the next steps,” the Berlin hospital statement continued, noting that “the exam will take some time.”…

Hat Tip to Mitch for sending me How Alexei Navalny revolutionized opposition politics in Russia, before his apparent poisoning. You need to need to read it to understand just how big a threat Navalny is to Putin and his Russian Republican Reich.

Although the proof is not yet set in stone, Putin, aka Daddy Vladdy, as Trump* calls him in bed, has so many poison priors that not to act on it would be insane.

‘Poison is part of Putin’s policy,’ says Alexei Navalny associate

See what I mean?

Committing political murder is nothing new for the Republican Reich. Consider JFK, MLK, RFK and Kent State. More recently, look how they targeted Gabby Giffords, almost killing her. Since criminal Fuhrer Trump* admires his Daddy Vladdy so much and emulates him so often, both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris need to add official food tasters to their security staff!

Here is the one hundred eightieth article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s winner is the idiot, hate-filled Congressman Ted “No No” Yoho [R-FL]. He is so honored for a bogus apology to the magnificent AOC after making vile misogynous slurs.

If you click on only one thing today, let it be Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Thursday morning speech, delivered from the House floor and directed to a fellow member of Congress, but really to us all.

“You can be a powerful man and accost women,” said the New York Democrat. “You can have daughters and accost women, without remorse. You can be married and accost women. You can take photos, and project an image to the world of being a family man, and accost women, without remorse, and with a sense of impunity. It happens every day in this country.”

Two days prior, on the steps of the Capitol, Ocasio-Cortez found herself in a heated conversation with Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.). He called her “disgusting,” he said she was “out of [her] freaking mind,” and when the discussion ended, Yoho allegedly uttered the words, “f—ing b—h.”

Here is the one hundred seventy-ninth article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s winners are rabid, racist Republican Ammosexuals, Mark and Patricia McCloskey. They are so honored for pointing loaded weapons at peaceful BLM demonstrators, who weren’t even on their property!

Personal-injury attorneys Mark and Patricia McCloskey entered the national spotlight like the ultimate expression of white privilege, waving their weapons toward peaceful protesters whose crime was walking down a sidewalk. Republicans immediately tried to make the pair heroes of the Second Amendment, valiantly defending their home by pointing the weapons in the face of Americans who had the audacity to not be rich and white.

So it will probably come as a relief to everyone that they turn out to be jackasses of the first water. Mark McCloskey isn’t just the kind of raging a-hole who is hated by all of his neighbors, he’s not just a guy who has sued his own sister and his own father, he’s also a guy who did this: He destroyed bee hives on a neighbor’s property and left behind a note not only admitting that he did it, but threatening to sue if they didn’t clean up the mess promptly. That neighbor was a Jewish synagogue which had planned to use the honey for Rosh Hashanah. “The children were crying in school,” said Rabbi Susan Talve. “It was part of our curriculum.”

Congratulations, Republicans. These are your new heroes. And they’re perfect.

As the St. Louis Post-Dispatch outlines, the McCloskeys have a “long history of not backing down.” Which in this case means they are unbelievably—unbelievably—awful. If their moment in the national spotlight made them seem like a postcard advertising the very worst America has to offer, prepare to be amazed. They’re worse than you think… [emphasis added]

I bet they would have left the bee hives alone had the honey not been for Jewish children. Click through for even more reasons these vile Republicans deserve a parade.

Like all rabid Republican Ammosexuals, they also lie like hell!

Nothing that racist Republican said was true. Not one of the BLM protestors did anything to threaten him, his wife, or his property in any way. In typical Republican fashion, they acted out of hate, not out of the grievance they falsely claim.

Here is the one hundred seventy-eighth article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s winner Republican Nazi soldier and traitor, Ethan Melzer. He is so honored for plotting a jihadist terrorist attack against his own Army unit.

An American soldier has been arrested for plotting with what prosecutors describe as a “neo-Nazi cult” to attack his own Army unit.

The Washington Post reports that 22-year-old Ethan Melzer gave intelligence about his unit to a racist U.K.-based group called the Order of Nine Angles so they could help launch an attack against it.

“Melzer allegedly provided this potentially deadly information intending that it be conveyed to jihadist terrorists,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Audrey Strauss of the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York.

Strauss described the planned attack as a “murderous ambush” and said Melzer was “motivated by racism and hatred as he attempted to carry out this ultimate act of betrayal.”… [emphasis added]

I have no doubt that our veterans will agree that our service personnel trust each other with their lives, so it’s hard to imagine a more Republican crime than this. Frankly, I hope he gets life without possibility of parole.

Note the ease in which Nazis and Islamic terrorists work together. As much as Republicans like to associate Al Qaeda and the Daesh (ISIL) with the left, the association could not be valid. These organizations are right wing. How could they be leftists when they act just like Republicans.

This does give me cause to worry about the future of brand new Acting US Attorney Audrey Strauss of the the SDNY. After Melzer committed an act that would qualify him for a high government post in the Republican Reich, criminal Fuhrer Trump* may sic Barrf on Strauss for prosecuting Melzer.

Here is the one hundred seventy-seventh article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s winner is an unknown racist Republican terrorist. She is so honored for torching an Atlanta Wendy’s, as a Republican false flag after Republican police murdered Rayshard Brooks there.

Video footage appears to show a masked white woman setting fire to a Wendy’s restaurant near where a black man was shot dead by police, as authorities offer a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of arsonists.

The fast-food outlet was torched late on Saturday during demonstrations that erupted over the killing of 27-year-old Rayshard Brooks by police officers on Friday.

A video clip filmed by a protester that appeared to show a woman fanning the flames.

Police also posted photos on social media of the white woman ‘attempting to hide her identity’, wearing a black baseball cap and face mask…

What we have here is clearly a racist Republican false flag terrorist attack, perpetrated by a MAGA maniac. The intent was to make the Black protestors appear criminal and give criminal Republican police an excuse to murder more Black people for criminal Fuhrer Trump* and the Republican Reich. May she march in her parade behind bars!

Here is the one hundred seventy-sixth article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s winner is Garrett Rolfe, a Republican police officer in Atlanta. He is so honored for murdering yet another unarmed Black man, by shooting him in the back as he fled.

Less than 24 hours after a white police officer shot and killed an African-American man outside a fast-food restaurant, Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms of Atlanta announced on Saturday that the city’s police chief had resigned.

Early on Sunday morning, Sgt. John Chafee, a spokesman for the Atlanta Police Department, said the officer who shot the man had been fired…

…The authorities said the man, Rayshard Brooks, 27, had run from the police on Friday night after failing a sobriety test and grabbing a Taser from an officer during a struggle with him. Ms. Bottoms said that security footage appeared to show that Mr. Brooks had fired the Taser toward the officer, who was chasing him before he was killed, but that she did not consider that a justification for the shooting…

Warning: the following video contains graphic footage of a Republican murder.

Body cam footage of Rayshard Brooks’ death shows calm, then chaos

To be fair, I have to say that Brooks’ conduct was far from acceptable. Police and Republicans are claiming that Rolfe was in fear for his life, because Brooks fired the TASER at him. However, police and “expert witnesses” have testified in court the use of TASERs by police is justified in crowd control, because it is a non lethal weapon. Therefore, Rolfe could not have feared for his life from a non-lethal weapon. Furthermore, once the TASER had been fired and missed, it could not be fired again and was no threat to Rolfe. For Rolfe to shoot an unarmed fleeing Brooks in the back is a racist Republican murder.
