Last weekend, major media outlets declared Joe Biden the victor in the 2020 presidential election, but the celebrations that ensued did not put an end to the left's rage. Here are some of the instances of leftist violence and intimidation around the election.
6. ‘F— BIDEN’: BLM and Antifa Vandalize Portland Democrats’ County Building
In a protest signaling the national struggle between factions of the left, Antifa and Black Lives Matter protesters smashed windows and graffitied the Multnomah County Democrats’ office building, calling for an end to constitutional government. They spray-painted "F— Biden" beneath cardboard cutouts of the president-elect, and three were arrested.

1. AOC Wants Trump-Era Officials Blacklisted
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) called for blacklisting members of the departing Trump administration and those in Congress who cooperated with the Trump White House. "Is anyone archiving these Trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future?" she tweeted.
Is anyone archiving these Trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future? I foresee decent probability of many deleted Tweets, writings, photos in the future
