WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump’s acting homeland security chief on Wednesday acknowledged that white supremacist extremists played a role in this year’s urban violence in the United States, a revision of the administration’s public descriptions of the political motivations of violent protesters.
In what was billed as a “2020 State of the Homeland” speech, acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf initially attributed violence in Portland, Oregon in particular to “violent opportunists” and went on to describe how protesters had attacked federal officers with sledge-hammers, pipes, fireworks, homemade bombs and other weapons.
Wolf also attributed violence to both “white supremacist extremists” and “anarchist extremists,” mentioning white supremacists first, in a speech livestreamed on the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) website.
I guess the truth was about to come out anyway.

My guess is they cut it loose today knowing that Woodward's book would dominate the news cycle. But, hey. I am a cynic.

Great visualNo, they play dress up in pseudo-military gear and walk around with rifles.
It's the right-wing equivalent of Paris Hilton toting that stupid dog around in her handbag.
Great visual
Paris never looked so good.
obviously, no worries .... with purses and stupid dog
Paris Hilton equivalents aren't the type to cause riots, property damage, physical injury, and death..
right ? what's your allegation worth then ?
It's not my allegation. It came from the department of homeland security. See the article cited in the OP.
The article discusses antifa.
you know the white supreme communists.
"Playing a role, and, "responsible for" aren't the same thing. Are libs seriously this stupid? [/RHETORICAL]

Your thread title is a lie.
Willfully ignorant is not a good look, Thom. You should work on that.
Coming from this administration? Hell, Turmpskis just admitting white supremacist exist is an incredible development. That they "both sides" the issue, however, does not come as a surprise.
