Speaking of conspiracy theories, if you were ever wondering if there's a bottom to this...

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump ignited fresh controversy over his hard-line “law and order” push Tuesday by peddling yet another unfounded conspiracy theory, this time trying to raise suspicions about a 75-year-old protester who was hospitalized after being shoved by police and falling.
[...]
“Buffalo protester shoved by Police could be an ANTIFA provocateur,” Trump wrote in his tweet. “75 year old Martin Gugino was pushed away after appearing to scan police communications in order to black out the equipment. @OANN I watched, he fell harder than was pushed. Was aiming scanner. Could be a set up?”
There is no evidence to suggest that anything of the sort took place. Trump was referencing a report on One America News Network, a far-right news channel that he often praises.

As for the substance of the tweet, the president's claim is “so technically incomprehensible, I'm not even sure where to start,” said Matt Blaze, a professor of computer science and law at Georgetown University.
In other news, there sure seems to be an awful lot of these bad apples around in the US:

Two law enforcement agencies acknowledged Monday that officers patrolling Minneapolis during the height of recent protests knifed the tires of numerous vehicles parked and unoccupied in at least two locations in the midst of the unrest.
Video and photo images posted on the news outlet Mother Jones show officers in military-style uniforms puncturing tires in the Kmart parking lot at Lake Street and Nicollet Avenue on May 30.
Images from S. Washington Avenue at Interstate 35W also showed officers with knives deflating the tires of two unoccupied cars with repeated jabs on May 31. Department of Public Safety spokesman Bruce Gordon confirmed that tires were cut in "a few locations."
"State Patrol troopers strategically deflated tires ... in order to stop behaviors such as vehicles driving dangerously and at high speeds in and around protesters and law enforcement," Gordon said.

Translation: they wanted to harass protesters and journalists, but because it looks bad, they instead said it was because of crime prevention.

Kind of disappointing to see who signed the letter -- that person definitely isn't living up to his name.

That's not a Fox News poll with the same numbers, that's a Fox News article
about the CNN poll numbers.

At the end of the day, it's not like national polls mean anything and 5 months might as well be 5 years at this point. Looks like this is yet another
