Jerry Nadler Says Antifa Violence In Portland Is ‘A Myth’
Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler of New York said antifa violence in Portland is a myth in a YouTube video published Monday.
Nadler made the comment during an interview with Austen Fletcher. Fletcher hosts Fleccas Talks, a political channel, according to the Dartmouth Review.
I ran into Jerry Nadler in DC and asked him to disavow the Antifa violence/rioting in Portland.
His response?

“It is true, there’s violence across the whole country, do you disavow the violence from antifa that’s happening in Portland now?” Fletcher asked Nadler in the video.
“That’s, that’s, that’s a myth that’s being spread only in Washington D.C.,” Nadler responded.
Protests and riots have engulfed Portland for two months. Protesters have clashed with police, with rioters tearing down fencing protecting the federal courthouse and shining lasers at police, and police firing tear gas and pepper spray.
Protesters have been advocating for racial justice and police reform after George Floyd died in police custody on May 25.
“I was disappointed in Mr. Nadler,” Fletcher told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “Downplaying it is one thing but pretending it doesn’t exist, especially when the clips are going viral on social media shows me where his priorities really are. Anything to maintain the narrative.”
Nadler did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Please take this fat ass to Portland and and drop him off at the Federal Courthouse around 10pm
It seems to be a recurring theme with the Dems, its a myth until they are affected.
Nadler’s IQ is a myth. Feed him to the crowd.
Jerry Nadler must be kidding…..so what exactly are all the videos they are showing of Portland depicting, oh, another summer of love?
Nadler is a dirty lying sack of fat human waste, that has taken so much money from Soros and China, that he has sold out America, in support of terrorism, because he’s a Traitor!
The destruction of America’s cities, means nothing to him, and the rest of the Nancy Pig-losi, AOC, Adam Schiff low life Demon-Rats!
They support ANTIFA, and BLM because, that’s what these Demo-Rat Liars and Traitors are paid to do!
Nadler knows about myths, he’s a dwarf.
