President Donald Trump has blamed antifa and the 'radical left' as protests over the death of George Floyd devolved into violence nationwide, after the governor of Minnesota suggested that foreign influences, white supremacists and drug cartels are the fueling chaos.
'It's ANTIFA and the Radical Left. Don't lay the blame on others!' Trump said in a tweet on Saturday, referring to the militant far-left movement, short for 'anti-fascist', that is known for violence.
On Friday night, widespread looting and arson continued in Minneapolis and nearby St. Paul, in defiance of curfews there, and protests spilled into violence in 30 cities, as a federal agent in California and a protester in Detroit were shot dead.
Echoing the president, Attorney General Bill Barr said on Saturday that 'the voices of peaceful protest are being hijacked by radical elements.'

WNU Editor: Does Minnesota Governor Tim Walz provide any evidence to back his claims .... of course not. When I look at the videos that have been posted documenting the carnage in Minneapolis, there are some clips where you see some whites looting stores and attacking the police. But they are a very small minority. As to white supremacists and black rioters joining together to destabilize the nation as the Governor is suggesting .... hmmm .... I doubt that.
Update: The evidence is contradicting the Governor .... Jail records show most arrested in Minneapolis riots have Minnesota addresses (FOX 9).
Update #2: This disaster in Minnesota does not reflect well of the Democrat leadership in Minnesota .... Standing Down: Progressive politicians watch as Minneapolis burns. (Willis L. Krumholz, City-Journal). Bottom line. The voters in Minnesota have some things to think about when they go to the polls this November.
