Oh look, Richard Spencer has joined Team Biden and other "former right wing guys" endorsing Biden. Do we still think they are worthy of our attention?

You beat me to it. Let’s add “Neo Nazi, White Supremecist” Richard Spencer. Hmmm. But it’s a Big Tent right Joe?
Hypocrites to the right of me Hypocrites to the left of me.

You just don't get that all of these Lincoln Project guys are just disgruntled "former" somethings that are pissed that they couldn't get it done.

You think this guy is a disgruntled former something? He's a fellow Navy man. I'm with him.

And he’s a liberal New Englander from Maine & Vermont.
I respect differing opinions, but his problem about Trump is because he thinks Trump was a “Draft Dodger”. Ummm, I don’t think Barack Obama served either.
Question. Under which President were we more at war? Obama, or Trump?
Trump has been working to pull Troops out of hotspots, had a strategy to defeat ISIS and has Un under control. Obama? Not so much.

Can you show me proof of this? Some quotes of the BLM leaders denouncing the violence would be a nice start.

And since you used capital letters for BLM I assume you mean the actual organization.

On the contrary.

"But people who don’t understand their history cannot possibly know their worth."

Well, when you focus on erasing history, like the idiot liberals are hell bent on doing, it may become even more possible for certain people not to know their worth. Then again, someone like Atkins is worthless anyway.

The idiot HOST tries to shut him down. Epic fail by MSNBC:

I'll take him at his word that he is a conservative.

And what does Obama have to do with this? He's not on the ticket is he?
And to be a "Draft" dodger...Ummm...well, there has to be a draft....I think.
And it does appear that Trump did dodge the draft.

Hey, I'm in Sparkle City...not Greenville!

At 329 to 0, I've got a lot more chance of being shot by a right-wing crazy boogaloo bois than a protestor.

Edit: my former congressman just joined the Republicans supporting Biden.

Your lib BLM buddies are going to riot and loot here tomorrow and now the schools that are open for in class instruction are closing tomorrow. Gotta love that lib platform...commerce, education, nah screw it. It's hilarious that the extreme left are called progressives...there is nothing progressive or instituting progress...all about just redistributing wealth and education so the lazy and the whiners can get theirs.

“ that real change requires more than gathering in front of a police station and calling for justice. It requires seats at the table where decisions are made and voices speaking in unison.“
Good article, but it again avoids placing blame at the proper point.
Hmmm. Who is the Mayor of Chicago? And who is the City Aldermen who represent Englewood?- Welp, the Mayor is Black and there are 5, FIVE Aldermen that cover Englewood- 4 are black and one is Hispanic. I think that there are already those who have “Seats at the table.” But what the hell are they doing about it, or have done for 60 years?
