Jacob Blake’s mother appeared on CNN, denouncing the rioting and looting in her son’s name, and apologizing to President Trump.
“My family and I are very hurt and quite frankly disgusted. And as his mother, please don’t burn up property and cause havoc and tear your own homes down in my son’s name.
You shouldn’t do it. People shouldn’t do it anyway, but to use my child or any other mother or father’s child — our tragedy — to react in that manner is just not acceptable,” Blake’s mother, Julia Jackson, said.
Jackson also discussed the fact that a member of her family lashed out at the president over the incident. She apologized to the president for their conduct, and also apologized for missing the president’s phone call.
“For our president, Trump: First I want to say a family member and I don’t know if it was heard or not said something that was not kind. She is hurting and I do apologize for that.
Our outburst does not reflect our behavior. And then also, for President Trump: I’m sorry I missed your call because had I not missed your call, maybe the comments that you made would have been different… I’m not mad at you at all. I have the utmost respect for you as the leader of our country,” Jackson said.
Rioting Destroys Kenosha in Three Nights
Riots erupted after the police shooting of Jacob Blake. Businesses have been looted and burned to the ground. A used-car lot was set on fire. Kenosha, Wisconsin is beginning to look like a war zone.
Julio Rosas, Marine and journalist from Townhall.com, interviewed business owners from Kenosha about the damage:
I spoke with Scott and his mother Linda. Their furniture store was set on fire last night during the Kenosha riots. Linda cried at the sight of the wreckage.
Scott had a response to people who would say it's just property and there's insurance. Full vid: https://t.co/y1F7QgigE6 pic.twitter.com/Zw1y6ayds6

Once again, the Communist News Network, fails miserably to have any credibility in anything they report as there is absolutely no professional INTEGRITY in their entire Leftist loon organization. It is a true travesty that the Integrity once evinced by reporters like the Paul Harvey of my day who reported news truthfully and accurately and actually in November of 1965 when I was a college sophomore predicted the mess we are in today. The trend was there even then by trusted but malicious mavens of the media like Dan Rather and trusted “Uncle Walter Cronkite, they may have had good records during WW2 but somewhere between the end of that war and the Vietnam war, they began the diatribes and dissension still with us in reporting less than FACTUAL information or misinformation with a political aim and it has grown like all terminal cancer always do, since. It is truly tragic that this has become the NORM in these disunited and divided states these days and we all know where the blame belongs for it and it is NOT on the duly elected President no matter how the lunatic left tries to convince us otherwise! The LEFT IS NOT RATIONAL OR AMERICAN AS IS PROVED BY THE VIOLENCE BEING GENERATED AND SUPPORTED BY LIBERAL LEFTIST LOON GOVERNORS AND MAYORS, ALL OF WHOM BELONG IN PRISON, NEVER ELECTIVE OFFICE!
