Hundreds of protesters in Hong Kong march against Beijing's new national security law and the postponement of legislative elections amid Covid-19

Riot police search people during a demonstration oppose postponed elections, in Hong Kong, China September 6, 2020.

The move dealt a blow to the pro-democracy opposition who hoped to win a historic majority in the Council, where only half the seats are directly elected and the other half are appointed members who mostly support Beijing. Thousands of police were stationed around the bustling Kowloon peninsula as marchers waved placards and chanted popular anti-government slogans such as "liberate Hong Kong".

It’s the covid-economy, stupidDemocrats anxiously demanding that Joe Biden loudly and frequently denounce street violence are essentially taking their cues from Donald Trump and Tucker Carlson Biden will follow the media’s advice to ignore the facts at his own peril. How many more lies will CONNIVING TRUMP need to spew before its a foregone conclusion that CONNIVING TRUMP is lying about everything? Trump couldn't care less about YOU! Trump M.O. is CHAOS. Trump relishes in creating enough CHAOS to cover-up his incompetence and misdeeds. It's why he purposely uses 'DIVISIVE LANGUAGE' (albeit rudimentary) to have U.S. grab at each others throat. Don't be fooled by conniving Trump!
