SANITY: Army Clears Cadets Who Were Targeted by Leftist Mob for Flashing ‘OK’ Symbol on Live TV
The digital lynch mob loses this round.
West Point has released the results of their investigation into the use of an ‘OK’ symbol on live TV by Army cadets last weekend. They have cleared them of any racist intent in using the innocuous symbol despite the leftist cries for blood.
“There is no evidence that [the cadets who flashed the ‘OK’ symbol] hold any racist or white supremacist views or attempted to communicate such messages by using the ‘OK’ hand gesture on national television,” the Army wrote in their final report on the investigation.
“The evidence strongly supports a finding that the cadets were playing the “circle game”, an internationally recognized game in which people attempt to trick someone else into looking at an okay-like hand gesture below the waist,” the Army explained. “Sworn statements from all three cadets convey that their intention was to play the “circle game” in order to garner attention from a national audience as well as surrounding cadets.”
This is bad news for the digital lynch mob of leftist jackals that immediately rushed to conclusions and attempted to destroy the lives of the innocent cadets who did nothing wrong.
Townhall senior writer Julio Rosas compiled some of the most disgraceful and unhinged responses from leftists who joined the witch hunt against our nation’s heroes:

Last one for now but this one is insane. New York Magazine included the Army/Navy game incident with ACTUAL hate crimes that occurred this year, including the El Paso and Gilroy shootings. Completely irresponsible.https://t.co/NNOgmRB36N pic.twitter.com/L8lgmpIH80

The controversy arose during a showing of ESPN’s College Gameday for the annual Army vs. Navy football game last weekend. Army cadets flashed the “OK” symbol during the broadcast which prompted an immediate social media backlash.

Soulless leftists have received their marching orders from the anti-American special interest group, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). They recently updated their list of hate symbols to include the “OK” symbol following a successful trolling campaign on 4chan.
“Even as extremists continue to use symbols that may be years or decades old, they regularly create new symbols, memes and slogans to express their hateful sentiments,” ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt said in a statement.
“At this point, there is enough of a volume of use for hateful purposes that we felt it was important to add,” said Oren Segal, who is the director of the ADL’s Center on Extremism, referring to the ‘OK’ symbol.
People have already been fired and thrown out of polite society due to the ADL’s fear-mongering regarding this symbol. The ADL is attempting to create an atmosphere where wrongthink is punishable by banishment, akin to something out of the dark ages.
The Army’s decision to clear the names of their cadets is a breathe of fresh air in a system of politically correct tyranny that is headed rapidly toward idiocracy. The leftist mob has lost this battle within the ongoing culture war.

Minnesota Governor Asking President Trump to Declare Riots a Federal Disaster In Hope of Receiving Bailout Funds
Weren’t they peaceful protestors?
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is requesting that President Donald Trump declare the recent rounds of race riots in Minneapolis a federal emergency, so that the state may access federal bailout funds intended for communities affected by disasters.
Governor Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey largely stood by idly as race rioters destroyed and damaged more than 700 buildings in the riots, which occurred after the controversial death of George Floyd during a questionable arrest at the hands of the Minneapolis police department. The property damage from the widespread riots is estimated to range in the tens of millions, and Frey is already pushing a federal bailout to repair the damages enabled by his unwillingness to prevent criminality and support of the rioters’ “message.”
Governor Walz referenced the victims of the riots in a statement requesting the bailout, callously ignoring that the victims of the riots were not only victimized by criminal riots, but simply ignored in their hour of need by state and local officials unwilling to confront left-wing criminality in the name of “justice.”
“We’re asking our federal partners to step up and help our communities recover,” demanded Governor Walz. “We need to come together to ensure Minnesotans who were victims of this destruction have access to critical infrastructure they need so they can go to the grocery store, pick up their medication, and live their lives. Together, we will rebuild.”
The Governor’s estimate of property damage from the riots is considerably greater than what the mayor estimated, claiming that combined damages from the destruction could cost as much as $500 million.
In the new world of unabated criminality and violent destruction from vicious gangs in Democrat-controlled cities, Democrat officials will always be prepared to come cup in hand to American taxpayers with hopes of funding the repairs of the rioting that they enabled, allowed, and perhaps even tacitly supported. No responsibility or integrity.
