*Hours after President Trump signed an executive order to protect conservative voices on social media, he hit up Twitter to declare war on Americans by calling on the military to shoot Black protesters in Minneapolis. 

Twitter flagged the post early Friday morning, saying it violated its rules about “glorifying violence” after Trump tweeted that “when the looting starts, the shooting starts” in regards to the ongoing unrest in the city following the lynching of George Floyd by members of the Minneapolis police force. 

“These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!” Trump tweeted shortly before 1 a.m. Friday.

Twitter flagged the tweet, but it remains accessible to his followers.

“This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules about glorifying violence. However, Twitter has determined that it may be in the public’s interest for the Tweet to remain accessible,” the social media company said.

Trump lashed out after protesters allegedly stormed the Minneapolis Police Department’s Third Precinct and set it on fire. 

“I can’t stand back & watch this happen to a great American City, Minneapolis. A total lack of leadership,” Trump tweeted. “Either the very weak Radical Left Mayor, Jacob Frey, get his act together and bring the City under control, or I will send in the National Guard & get the job done right.”

Trump is catching heat over his remarks, with one Twitter user noting, “A president who sends the military in against the people is generally referred to as a tyrant.”

Another added, “When the looting starts, the shooting starts,” is a threat coined by Miami Police Chief Walter Headley, who promised violent reprisals on black protesters in 1967. He also said: “We don’t mind being accused of police brutality. They haven’t seen anything yet.”

A third noted, “So, let me get this right … the heavily armed people who were at state capitals because they don’t want to wear masks are “patriots”; but these people fighting for justice are “thugs”.   Got it.”

Meanwhile, the the Minneapolis chief of police has confirmed that many of the protesters that are burning down the city are not locals/residents. 

“As he did with Antifa, Democrat George Soros has these thugs on payroll,” noted conservative media personality Candance Owens of the growing speculation that (white) Agent Provocateurs are responsible for kicking off the riots.

Actor Isiah Washington captioned a photo showing a suspected agent: If this photo was captured in Minneapolis, so much for the ‘people in the hood’ looting and burning their neighborhoods down all by themselves. Looks like there are ‘others’ in play.”

Washington also noted of video showing “a post-apocalyptic scene after the Minneapolis riots,” that “these don’t look like simple gasoline fires,” adding, “Kinda looks like military grade incendiaries to me, but what do I know? I’m just an actor!”

Several of his followers agreed, with one user suspecting “pre-positioned inflammable materials” were used to set the fires, while another wrote, “You need a liquid accelerant and an ignition source to burn down a building that quickly. This was the work of an arsonist or at the very least someone who knew what they were doing.”
