If the protestors noticed the clouds, they didn't care. Hundreds of them walked down D.C. streets in sheets of rain, almost oblivious to the nighttime thunderstorm. Soaked, some of them knelt at the Martin Luther King, Jr. memorial, quietly listening to his "I Have a Dream" speech in a kind of calm that's eluded the city for days. For several minutes after midnight, that iconic voice seemed to float over the Tidal Basin, a call as clear as it was all of those years ago: "Now is the time to rise from the dark."

The motto from the underground training session was simple: "Get out there and do dangerous things as safely as possible." Caught on video by Project Veritas, the advice from the Antifa organizers was jarring. "Gouge their eyes." "If you get a good liver or kidney shot, it's pretty much crippling." "Run away while they're doubled over in pain," the "fight instructor" says. Whatever you do, destroy your enemy. And with any luck, the thugs think, your country too.

Derek Chauvin was no saint. That much was known long before his knee crushed the life out of George Floyd. After racking up 17 complaints in 19 years, the question most people have is -- what was he still doing on the police force anyway? If we can stand the answer, it would go a long way to getting some of these bad people off the beat. But it would also mean taking a long hard look at the power of unions in this country. And for some people, that's a bridge too far.

Dr. Mohler on the Riots, the Church, and America's Greatest Threat
|
|
Dr. Albert Mohler couldn't have predicted when he started his book that the title would be so tragically appropriate. The storm is most certainly here -- in the unrest of one man's death and the uncertainty from 110,000 more. Most people, Dr. Mohler insists, have no idea about the deepest challenge we face. What is it -- and what can we do about it? Find out in his interview on "Washington Watch."
