Cleveland cops could face a huge threat from potential rioters at the GOP’s convention this summer — and experts doubt the city’s police are ready to handle the demonstrators. “I personally am very concerned about what we’re going to see in Cleveland because they simply don’t have the infrastructure,” law enforcement expert John Cardillo told Breitbart News Saturday with guest host and Washington Political Editor Matthew Boyle. “Cleveland was a horrible choice for the convention, the police department is small, clearly they didn’t have enough hotel rooms, they didn’t have the facilities needed to handle an event of this size,” Cardillo explained. The [police] department simply is not equipped, it doesn’t have the temporary headquarters vehicles, the command vehicle, the manpower. So what Cleveland is going to do is supplement with neighboring departments. Their going to bring in the Ohio State troopers, their going to do what they call ‘fly-in cops’ from neighboring sheriff departments, county police agencies, small departments. But then what happens? Then those departments are understaffed and those departments are left with less manpower. When you bring those officers in from other departments, you don’t know them, you haven’t trained with them. You don’t know how they react to these things

New York Military Academy Blocks Alumni from Trump Event
Donald Trump is set to speak at his alma-matter New York Military Academy tomorrow at 2pm. The event itself is closed to the public and is invite only. Many of the faculty, students, and alumni were unable to attend because of the exclusivity of the event, although there was an outpouring of interest by alumni to attend. Yesterday President of the Academy, Anthony Desa, released a statement regarding the event: The 127-year-old institution is one of the last remaining military high schools in the country. Six miles from West Point, the small military academy along the Hudson River is where Donald Trump got his start. NYMA is very close to Trump and is one of the many reasons why the man has reached the level of success he has. Disclosure: Jennifer Lawrence is a 2005 New York Military Academy Graduate

Exclusive – Rabbi on Planned Walkout of Donald Trump’s AIPAC Speech: ‘What Trump Calls PC,’ We Call ‘Being a Good Person’
Rabbis are planning an unprecedented walkout during 2016 GOP frontrunner billionaire Donald Trump’s speech before American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) conference in Washington D.C. on Monday evening — and now the rabbi leading the protest is explaining why he’s doing it. “Rock and roll” Rabbi David Paskin — the planned protest’s leader — explained why he is organizing this effort in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News. “This is about denouncing hatred in all forms,” Paskin said late Sunday. “Everyone here at AIPAC denounces hatred. What is far more important is what has happened this week and what will happen after the policy conference. We are going to continue to come together against hate. We are going to argue that what Mr. Trump calls PC, is not a bad thing, it is what we Jews call … being a good person.” Trump is slated to speak at the influential group’s policy conference on Monday evening — and his speech at AIPAC caused him to not appear at a since-canceled GOP presidential debate in Salt Lake City, Utah. That debate would have been moderated by the Fox News Channel, but after Trump pulled out, he was joined by Ohio Gov.
