Don't tell anyone to remember their umbrella unless it's absolutely pouring or you'll give into the propaganda that water is falling from the sky.
The right-wing thinks we're giving rioters a pass and, not that we need to satisfy their demands, don't give them a pass. You can denounce setting fires and shooting reporters in the leg in one breath you know.
They only do that when they speak about Israel. They start the statement with OCT 7 then end it with "all hostages should be released" and in the middle they water down whatever genocide and war crimes happening.
He could have done the same here. Could have said, the ICE violated people rights, and reforming the ICE should be the first step to peaceful solution.
Instead he basically ignoring everything leading to the riot and expect people to take it until, maybe, they can pass something in congress to be then reject by the house.
classic useless politician.
"Guys it is not raining today. But you should not forget to bring your umbrella if it rains."
Totally normal statement.
