Baltimore Protest for Freddie Gray - Useful Idiots Riot

The conduct of police is under heavy scrutiny by the race hustlers in the current administration and the left in general. Even after the embarrassing false allegations and the death and destruction in Ferguson fomented by the White House on down, their search for a new victim of police brutality now focuses on Freddie Gray in Baltimore. The associations and conduct of the 'protesters' are overlooked or explained away. The latest 'peaceful protest' turned violent and destructive was blamed on domestic terror tourism, also known as  out of town activists.
Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) alleged Sunday that many rioters in Baltimore the previous night were from "out of town," noting that he was amid crowds in the area.
A protest over the death of Freddie Gray, a black 25-year-old, in police custody turned violent as some went on a rampage as darkness fell, as they were seen smashing windows and throwing objects at police.
"I've gotta give it to the citizens of Baltimore. I was there all day, and it was very peaceful all day," Cummings said on CBS's "Face the Nation."
"At the end, there were a few people that said, 'We're gonna turn this city down, we're gonna close it down.' And the next thing you know we had a few people – mainly from out of town – to come and to start beating up on police cars and throwing all kinds of projectiles," Cummings alleged.
Elijah Cummings, a leader of the Congressional Black Caucus, is a proven race-hustler. Why can't Cummings hold his own constituents accountable for a riot in his own city? And the above headline leads to some interesting questions that won't get asked. 

Mainly what was their race? Mainly what party supports this nonsense? Mainly, what is the purpose of the Congressional Black Caucus? Mainly, who protected this administration from any accountability, Cummings?



And more peaceful protesters....

Lois Lerner Warned IRS Employees to Hide Information from Congress



A newly released email from former IRS employee Lois G. Lerner, sent just as the tea party targeting scandal was erupting, warned colleagues to “be cautious” about what information they put in emails because it could be turned over to Congress.

“I was cautioning folks about email and how we have had several occasions where Congress ask asked for emails and there has been an electronic search for responsive emails — so we need to be cautious about what we say in emails,” Ms. Lerner wrote in an April 9, 2013, message.

The message came less than two weeks after the IRS’s internal auditor shared a draft report with the agency accusing it of targeting tea party and conservative groups. A month after the email, Ms. Lerner would plant a question at a conference to reveal the scandal, just before the inspector general’s report was made public.

The email was turned over to the House oversight committee last week, more than a year after lawmakers sought it as part of their investigation into the IRS targeting.






Republicans said the email shows Ms. Lerner was aware Congress was probing the agency and that she was preparing to intentionally hide agency discussions from lawmakers.

Ms. Lerner’s emails have become a major scandal in and of themselves after the IRS revealed that her computer hard drive crashed in 2011, causing the agency to lose thousands of her messages.

The IRS went back and tried to recover some of the messages by asking others on the email chain to dig through their mailboxes, but the agency acknowledged some messages may be permanently lost.

Some Republicans have questioned whether the IRS took enough steps to try to recover the emails from the hard drive in 2011.
