B-Man Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I see Billzy is still desperately trying to divert from his obvious lie. Inspector General Report Debunks Claim That Trump Tear-Gassed Protesters To Clear Lafayette Park For Photo Op by Stacey Matthews On May 31, 2020, Antifa/Black Lives Matter-led rioters set the historic St. John’s Church in Washington, D.C. on fire during a night of particularly vicious rioting that had the city looking like an apocalyptic war zone.(Snip)Here we are a year later, and an IG report released just today confirms Trump and Barr were telling the truth the entire time: (Snip) The evidence we obtained did not support a finding that the USPP cleared the park to allow the President to survey the damage and walk to St. John’s Church. The USPP cleared the park for the contractor to install antiscale fencing due to destruction of property and injury to officers that occurred on May 30th and May 31st. The findings corroborate the testimony of the acting Park Police chief during a House Committee on Natural Resources hearing in July 2020 that the park was not cleared for a photo op; that there was no correlation between their operation and the president’s visit to St. John’s Church. https://legalinsurrection.com/2021/06/inspector-general-report-debunks-claim-that-trump-tear-gassed-protesters-to-clear-lafayette-park-for-photo-op/ Everyone on both sides agrees that the "Photo-Op" story was a lie BillsTime's reaction 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 THIS.......... "The IG's conclusion could not be clearer: the media narrative was false from start to finish... " "'[T]he evidence did not support a finding that the [U.S. Park Police] cleared the park on June 1, 2020, so that then President Trump could enter the park.' Instead... 'the evidence we reviewed showed that the USPP cleared the park to allow a contractor to safely install anti-scale fencing in response to destruction of Federal property and injury to officers that occurred on May 30 and May 31.' Crucially, 'the evidence established that relevant USPP officials had made those decisions and had begun implementing the operational plan several hours before they knew of a potential Presidential visit to the park, which occurred later that day.'.... The clearing of the Park, said the IG Report, had nothing to do with Trump or his intended visit to the Church; in fact, those responsible for doing this did not have any knowledge of Trump's intentions... [T]he media claims that were repeated over and over and over as proven fact — and even confirmed by 'fact-checkers' — were completely false....

B-Man Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 MEDIA TALE ABOUT CLEARING OF LAFAYETTE PARK COLLAPSES For the past twelve months, the mainstream media has been peddling the view that President Trump had the U.S. Park Police use tear gas to disperse protesters in Lafayette Park so that he could have a photo-op in front of a church on the other side of the park. I never accepted this version of events because I never accept on faith the truth of anything the mainstream media says about Trump. At the same time, the MSM version, even if true, didn’t bother me. Presidents should be permitted to cross Lafayette Park for any purpose. The protesters had had their say, and not always peaceably. They had no right to limit Trump’s movement indefinitely. It turns out, however, that the media’s narrative was false. After an extensive investigation, the independent Inspector General of the Interior Department, Mark Lee Greenblatt, has concluded that the protesters weren’t dispersed to facilitate a Trump photo-op. They were dispersed, instead, to allow a contractor to safely install anti-scale fencing in response to destruction of Federal property and injury to officers that the “mostly peaceful protesters” had recently inflicted. Greenblatt found that “the evidence established that relevant USPP officials had made those decisions and had begun implementing the operational plan several hours before they knew of a potential Presidential visit to the park, which occurred later that day.” (Emphasis added) Greenblatt, by the way, held important positions in the Obama administration. He was investigative counsel at the Department of Justice’s Office of Inspector General and Assistant Inspector General for Investigations at Obama’s Commerce Department. He is not a GOP or Trump partisan. Glenn Greenwald does a great job of cataloguing the mainstream media’s falsehoods about this matter. Among the offenders (let’s call them fabulists to be polite) he calls out are NPR, the New York Times, CNN, George Stephanopoulos, the Intercept, and Washington Post “fact checker” Philip Bump. In short, a rogues’ gallery of dishonest anti-Trumpers.

The judge also ruled that Trump and Barr “are entitled to qualified immunity as the plaintiffs have not plausibly alleged a violation of law”: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/legal-issues/lafayette-square-lawsuit-claims-dismissed/2021/06/21/8c0e8416-d2ce-11eb-ae54-515e2f63d37d_story.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peace, is that what you'd call the last year and the way it all kinda started out with the scene in Virginia early on with the white supremists. You remember the one where someone was killed getting run down by one of America's finest, which caused the lunatic in charge to claim "there are good people on both sides". Not to mention inciting an insurrection on 1/6/21. Oh, also having the demonstrators outside the white house shot with rubber bullets and snap bombs or whatever they called those explosives so dear leader could have his photo op.
