SKINNER ░░░░░░░░ s complicated I think ░░░░░░░░ s making the point ░░░░░░░░ Antifa is a fascist ░░░░░░░░ if it s anything ░░░░░░░░ all And it s ░░░░░░░░ even aist organization in ░░░░░░░░ main And that has ░░░░░░░░ be emphasized over and ░░░░░░░░ again But it s ░░░░░░░░ the only mess and ░░░░░░░░ should be coming out ░░░░░░░░ the White House at ░░░░░░░░ time The president is ░░░░░░░░ only

through ░░░░░░░░ Department of justice but ░░░░░░░░ need his words to ░░░░░░░░ his actions Only he ░░░░░░░░ do it HOST Understandable ░░░░░░░░ at the same time ░░░░░░░░ can t allow radicals ░░░░░░░░ take over the treats ░░░░░░░░ continue to plunder and ░░░░░░░░ and burn our stores ░░░░░░░░ businesses and our police ░░░░░░░░ and cities And designated ░░░░░░░░ strikes me as designating ░░░░░░░░ as

░░░░░░░░ that needs to happen ░░░░░░░░ stop the violence I ░░░░░░░░ a conversation around race ░░░░░░░░ rights and opportunity and ░░░░░░░░ are absolutely needed at ░░░░░░░░ time And I think ░░░░░░░░ s what people are ░░░░░░░░ for This is about ░░░░░░░░ and opportunity And we ░░░░░░░░ that s of the ░░░░░░░░ have been acting in ░░░░░░░░ peaceful and legal and ░░░░░░░░ manner And they I ░░░░░░░░ they will overtake the ░░░░░░░░ forces if they are ░░░░░░░░ by our leaders as ░░░░░░░░ HOST I would love ░░░░░░░░ to happen But it ░░░░░░░░ me the most radical ░░░░░░░░ the group won t ░░░░░░░░ listening to any conversation ░░░░░░░░ are not listening They ░░░░░░░░ looking for opportunities to ░░░░░░░░ and loot and create ░░░░░░░░ I hope they are ░░░░░░░░ If they are what ░░░░░░░░ you tell these people ░░░░░░░░ are creating all the ░░░░░░░░ for police right now ░░░░░░░░ again we have to ░░░░░░░░ our viewers this is ░░░░░░░░ by the death of ░░░░░░░░ man in police custody ░░░░░░░░ officer
