California: Standoff in Woodland Hills after Reports of Shots Fired Near Pro-Trump Rally


Woodland Hills, California: An estimated 700 vehicles participated in a pro-Trump caravan in the San Fernando Valley that passed by a Black Lives Mater demonstration. Gunshots aimed at the Trump rally were reported to have come from an apartment, causing a flat tire on one of the cars. A SWAT team evacuated several buildings. No injuries were reported.

Police were investigating reports of shots fired during a rally on Sunday in support of President Donald Trump.

The group traveled from Woodland Hills to Studio City in cars with participants playing the National Anthem, American flags and pro-trump signs in hand, and chanting, “four more years.”

A school bus also made its way down Ventura Boulevard with a sign supporting pleas to reopen schools during the pandemic.

The rally was peaceful but police ended up shutting down part of the demonstration after three men were allegedly caught on camera throwing bottles at the caravan and then reportedly firing shots, which someone believed hit the tire of a truck in the rally.

The alleged shooting happened about 11:30 a.m. as the caravan of Trump supporters moved along Ventura Boulevard near the Chalk Hills Court building in the 20300 block, police said.

A SWAT team was called in eventually to 20568 Ventura Boulevard after police said the three men ran into an apartment building and refused to come out, leading to a standoff.

SWAT members made entry into the apartment at 5:30 p.m. but found no one inside, the LAPD reported.

A witness who lives nearby said right before shots were fired, she could hear an argument between Trump supporters and counter-protesters.

“Right outside the building I could hear it sounded like a couple of men were in a pretty heated argument, yelling back and forth,” the witness said.

Despite the incident, the Trump rally went on with many of the participants thanking the police for their involvement and providing security.

Insane Leftist Mob Goes After Rand Paul and Republicans in DC on the Final Night of the RNC

Hundreds of screaming Black Lives Matter and Antifa militants converged on Washington, DC on the final night of the Republican National Convention. They shut down the streets and swarmed Republicans leaving the White House after President Trump’s speech. BLM and Antifa squads went after Rand Paul and his wife with intent to harm or kill. Paul said the rioters likely were from out of town and had been paid. Most of them were wearing new cloths and were staying in hotels. He said the hotel bills should be subpoenaed to find out who bankrolled the operation so criminal charges can be made against them and those who hired them. -GEG

Rioters knocked down an elderly Trump supporter. The man was walking through the area with a woman wearing pro-Trump attire when the mob began to follow him and harass him. A black woman punched him in the jaw. Then he was knocked to the ground. As usual, no police are present. The rioters have the streets to themselves.

President Trump gave his speech on the South Lawn of the White House, protesters gathered on the north side of the White House on Black Lives Matter Plaza and put an effigy of Trump in a guillotine for a ritual mock execution. The video of the guillotine scene also includes a clip of Kamala Harris, shortly after becoming Biden’s running mate, professing that the BLM riots will not stop and should not stop.

The rioters surround the historic Episcopalian St. John’s Church and chant a threat to burn it down.

The liberal media and LGBT groups have remained silent about BLM aggressors who screeched an anti-gay slur against Brandon Straka, the gay man who created the ‘Walk Away’ campaign for Democrats who realize the party is radicalized and does not represent them. The night after Black Lives Matter assaulted Republicans exiting the RNC at the White House, the mob marched through the streets of the capital chanting, “who do we protect? Black criminals!”




Portland: A Man from Patriot Prayer that Supports Trump Was Shot to Death

Portland: An estimated 2,500 people attended a “Trump cruise rally” outside the city, and then some cars re-routed and traveled through downtown Portland where they engaged in conflicts with BLM and Antifa, exchanging pepper spray and projectile volleys. It ended in violence when a man wearing a hat with the Patriot Prayer insignia was shot to death. The name of the victim is Aaron Danielson, aka Jay Bishop. While police have yet to identify the shooter, internet sleuths at 4Chan, the anonymous message board, found video that they claim identifies the shooter is Michael Reinoehl of Portland, a professional snowboarder and contractor. He was previously featured on a Bloomberg promo for the riots where he described himself as part of the rioter’s security apparatus. Law enforcement reportedly made little or no attempt to keep the groups apart.

Black Lives Matter celebrated when one of their leaders said, “Everybody, I just got word. The person who died was a Patriot Prayer person. He was a f***ing Nazi. Our community held its own and took out the trash.” Rioters also surrounded and assaulted Patriot Prayer founder Joey Gibson who was able to escape unharmed.

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler, who is also the city’s Police Commissioner, blamed Trump for the violence, because he previously brought in federal troops. Wheeler, like the mayors in other Democrat cities experiencing riots, has deliberately allowed the violence and vandalism by directing police to stand down.

US President Donald Trump extended his condolences following the shooting death of a man in Portland, tentatively identified as a member of the right-wing Patriot Prayer group. Police have yet to confirm his identity.

“Rest in Peace Jay,” Trump wrote on Sunday evening, retweeting a post by Amy Kremer, co-founder and co-chair of Women for Trump, identifying the man who was shot and killed in Portland on Saturday amid skirmishes between Black Lives Matter protesters and Trump supporters as ‘Jay Bishop’.

Earlier on Sunday, the founder of Patriot Prayer, whose members can frequently be spotted at pro-Trump rallies, confirmed that the man was “a good friend and a supporter of Patriot Prayer.”

Neither the group nor police have confirmed the identity of the man.

However, reports on social media have been circulating, alleging the victim was also a supporter of Blue Lives Matter, a movement in support of law enforcement.

While Kremer’s post blamed “Antifa,” a loosely organized self-avowed anti-fascist group, for the man’s death, police have not charged anyone with the shooting, with a suspect still believed to be at large.

The Patriot Prayer activist was shot on Saturday evening as clashes between Black Lives Matter protesters and pro-Trump supporters erupted in downtown Portland after around 600 cars rolled into the city as part of the ‘Trump Caravan’.

4Chan Users Appear to Have Identified Portland Rioter Who Shot and Killed Trump Supporter




Virginia: Democrats Seek to Pass Law Making Assault on Police and Firemen a Misdemeanor Instead of a Felony

The Virginia Senate to approve legislation that would eliminate the six-month mandatory minimum sentence for assault and battery against a police officer, judge, magistrate, prison guard, warden, firefighter, or any other emergency medical services personnel such as a paramedic. The bill says as long as there’s no “bodily injury” it’s not a felony. Democrats say the legislation does not minimize the crime of assaulting a police officer but, instead, makes a distinction between serious assaults and minor assaults. Serious physical assaults on police can be prosecuted under the state’s malicious wounding law and carry a two-year mandatory minimum sentence. Critics contend that this will signal that it is ‘open season’ on officials who maintain peace and safety, thus eroding law and order. The legislation was approved with all 21 Democrats voting in favor and 15 Republicans voting against it. It now moves to the House, where Democrats hold a 55-45 majority. -GEG

The Virginia Senate on Wednesday approved legislation that would eliminate a six-month mandatory minimum sentence for assaulting a police officer, despite strenuous objections from Republicans who said the bill disrespects police at a time when they have come under attack during nationwide protests.

Democrats, who hold a narrow majority in the Senate, said the legislation does not minimize the crime of assaulting a police officer, but instead makes a distinction between serious assaults and minor assaults.

The bill keeps the charge as a felony, but gives a judge or jury discretion to reduce it to a misdemeanor if there is no bodily injury or if someone’s culpability is slight because of diminished physical or mental capacity or a developmental disorder.

If the charge is brought as a felony, it requires an investigation by a different police officer and must be approved by a Commonwealth’s Attorney.

Critics of the current law say police overuse the charge, particularly in cases where they fear the person they arrested will claim police brutality. The enhanced penalty for assaulting law enforcement officers also applies to judges, magistrates, corrections officers, firefighters and emergency medical services personnel.

Sen. Scott Surovell, who proposed the bill, said it is not meant to address serious physical assaults on police, which can be prosecuted under the state’s malicious wounding law and carry a two-year mandatory minimum sentence.

“What we’re talking about here are situations that involve much more insignificant minor touches,” Surovell said.

Republicans, however, said they worried about the timing of the bill, citing the nationwide protests and violent clashes between police and protesters since the May 25 police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

“What in the world are we doing?” said Sen. John Cosgrove Jr. “Have you seen the attacks on police officers?”

Sen. Amanda Chase called the legislation “an attack on our law enforcement” and said it sends a message to criminals “that we’re going to stand back.”

Video and Witness Testimony Provides New Details of Shooting at Kenosha Riots


Video and witness testimony that have not been reported by mainstream media support the conclusion that Kyle Rittenhouse, the teenager who fired the fatal shots, can be seen being chased by BLM rioters BEFORE a shot is heard on camera. Witnesses say that BLM rioters were angry because he had a gun and also because he was attempting to put out some of the fires they had started. When the shot was heard, Rittenhouse stopped to look back but was immediately confronted by the man chasing him who tried to take the gun from him – whereupon Rittenhouse shot him. Rittenhouse shot and killed a second man who attacked him with a skateboard. He shot a third man in the arm who was pointing a handgun at him. All three men who were shot had criminal records. It is as though BLM is consciously recruiting their mercenaries from crooks and thugs. -GEG

Click this link for video of Rosenbaum, the first BLM/ Antifa rioter who Rittenhouse shot, provoking militia members who were protecting private property from destruction.  Click this link for video of RIttenhouse being chased and a gunshot fired BEFORE he shot Rosenbaum, who threw an object at the teenager while chasing him.

The Daily Caller’s Richie McGinniss appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight and described hearing shots fired in Kenosha before Kyle Rittenhouse used his weapon to defend himself.

McGinniss was just feet away when the shooting occurred.

McGinniss told Carlson that he was just ten to twelve feet behind the rioters as they ran into the parking lot to charge Rittenhouse.

“What I saw was [Joseph] Rosenbaum pursuing Rittenhouse, and Rittenhouse turned around,” McGinniss began. “Right before he turned around, I’m not sure if this is the reason he turned around, but there was a gun shot. That’s actually visible on video.”

The reporter noted that it is not clear if that gunshot was fired into the air or towards Rittenhouse, but the teenage boy did turn around immediately after that.

“At that point he went from running away to aiming his weapon at Rosenbaum and I was actually directly behind Rosenbaum.”

Rosembaum was one of the men shot and killed by Rittenhouse.

“I took one or two steps to my right, right as Rosenbaum was lunging for the barrel of the rifle,” McGinniss explained.

The reporter recounted that Rittenhouse actually moved the barrel of the rifle to dodge Rosembaum’s attempt to grab it. At this point, the attacker began to fall and Rittenhouse fired four shots.

McGinniss said that at this point he attempted to provide whatever aid he could to Rosembaum, because he had just been shot. He said that he believed Rittenhouse had ran away, but that he had came back and pulled out his phone to call 9-1-1.

As the Gateway Pundit reported earlier on Friday, Rittenhouse was in Kenosha working as a lifeguard at the community pool prior to going to help clean vandalism off the local high school.

This simple fact destroys the narrative being peddled by the mainstream media that he had “crossed state lines” to harm the rioters.

In a statement by Rittenhouse’s legal team at Pierce Bainbridge, provided to the Gateway Pundit, “after Kyle finished his work that day as a community lifeguard in Kenosha, he wanted to help clean up some of the damage, so he and a friend went to the local public high school to remove graffiti by rioters.”

Additionally, the weapon Rittenhouse was using to protect himself and others never crossed state lines.

“Later in the day, they received information about a call for help from a local business owner, whose downtown Kenosha auto dealership was largely destroyed by mob violence,” the statement continues. “Business owner needed help to protect what he had left of his life’s work, including two nearby mechanic’s shops. Kyle and a friend armed themselves with rifles due to the deadly violence gripping Kenosha and many other American cities, and headed to the business premises. The weapons were in Wisconsin and never crossed state lines.”

When Rittenhouse arrived at the mechanics shop, he and others stood guard to prevent further destruction. Later that night, long after the 8 p.m. curfew had passed, the police began to disperse a group of rioters. His lawyer, John M. Pierce, explains that while dispersing the mob, they maneuvered a mass of individuals down the street towards the auto shops. Rittenhouse and the others were threatened and taunted, but he did not react. “His intent was not to incite violence, but simply to deter property damage and use his training to provide first aid to injured community members,” Pierce says.

After the situation seemed to be diffused, Rittenhouse became increasingly concerned about people who were injured at the gas station, so he went in that direction with his first aid kit. He helped those he could find who were injured, either by administering aid or directing them which way to go for help beyond what he could offer.

The statement says that by the final time that Rittenhouse returned to the gas station and “confirmed there were no more injured individuals who needed assistance, police had advanced their formation and blocked what would have been his path back to the mechanic’s shop. Kyle then complied with the police instructions not to go back there. Kyle returned to the gas station until he learned of a need to help protect the second mechanic’s shop further down the street where property destruction was imminent with no police were nearby.”

“As Kyle proceeded towards the second mechanic’s shop, he was accosted by multiple rioters who recognized that he had been attempting to protect a business the mob wanted to destroy. This outraged the rioters and created a mob now determined to hurt Kyle. They began chasing him down. Kyle attempted to get away, but he could not do so quickly enough. Upon the sound of a gunshot behind him, Kyle turned and was immediately faced with an attacker lunging towards him and reaching for his rifle. He reacted instantaneously and justifiably with his weapon to protect himself, firing and striking the attacker,” Pierce explains.

Additionally, Rittenhouse stopped to ensure care for his attacker, hardly sounds like someone who had went to the riot with intent to kill.

“Kyle stopped to ensure care for the wounded attacker but faced a growing mob gesturing towards him. He realized he needed to flee for his safety and his survival. Another attacker struck Kyle from behind as he fled down the street. Kyle turned as the mob pressed in on him and he fell to the ground,” his legal team says. “One attacker kicked Kyle on the ground while he was on the ground. Yet another bashed him over the head with a skateboard. Several rioters tried to disarm Kyle. In fear for his life and concerned the crowd would either continue to shoot at him or even use his own weapon against him, Kyle had no choice but to fire multiple rounds towards his immediate attackers, striking two, including one armed attacker. The rest of the mob began to disperse upon hearing the additional gunshots.”
