Bill Federer: The Capitol Riots may have been an Alinsky-esque setup by the Lef‪t‬

For many Conservatives, the events of January 6th didn’t pass the smell test. Something seemed off. Think about it: There had been hundreds of humungous MAGA rallies, if not thousands, all across the country that were 100% peaceful. Not rioting. No looting. No issues with police. No issues at all. Through all that time, the Mainstream Media and the Democrats continued to paint Trump supporters as violent extremists.

Contrast this with the actually violent Left, as exemplified with the Black Lives Matter and Antifa riots over the summer that were deemed “mostly peaceful.” We saw buildings burned down, violent attacks against police officers and small business owners, as well as some of the most hateful and inciting rhetoric that we’ve seen in my lifetime.

So when the Capitol Riots of January 6th hit, something seemed off. The kind of violence we witnessed was something more reminiscent of what was going on in Portland, Seattle or any number of the BLM riots from the summer. This was not what we’ve come to know as the typical MAGA rally. Could it be that this was all a setup by the Left to rid America of Donald Trump supporters once and for all?

During this episode of Freedom One-On-One, historian and author Bill Federer explains that there’s actually historical precedence for setups such as what this event might be. He takes it back to the tactics of Saul Alinsky: “”Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)”

This is exactly the result of the January 6th riots, except on a massive widespread scale. With this one event, the Democrats were able to point all Conservative Trump supporters as violent extremists, even going so far as to call us domestic terrorists. All the events of 2020 that led up to this event seem just too perfect to be simply a coincidence. Could someone be pulling the strings behind the scenes?

Federer gave several examples of similar setups in recent American history. We know that there were Antifa members impersonating MAGA supporters in the crowd. To what extent was this just a rally gone of the rails vs an organized setup by Leftist groups like BLM or Antifa? We may never know. However, it cannot be denied that it’s not out of the realm of possibility, there’s historical precedent and there’s actually evidence that this might be the case.

As Conservatives, we cannot allow the Left to control the narrative about us. We are not violent extremists. We are not domestic terrorists. We are not insurrectionists. We are simply Americans who love this country and want our elected officials to support and defend the Constitution from enemies foreign and domestic.

COVID-19 lockdowns are taking down an independent news outlet

Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.

Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.

When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.

Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the resurgence of lockdowns that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.

The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $17,300 to stay afloat through March when we hope the economy will be more open, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.

The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. In November, 2020, we hit 1.2 million visitors.

We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.

As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
