Drudge Dumps Trump After Charlottesville Riots and Deadly Racist Attack
The Gateway Pundit ^ | August 12, 2017 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 08/12/2017 7:42:06 PM PDT by Trump20162020

It’s been a little over 200 days since Donald Trump was sworn in as president.
The president has been under a constant media assault since he first stepped into the Oval Office.

The media attacks have been constant, brutal and often fictitious.
But it now looks like he has lost Matt Drudge.

The Drudge Report headline on Saturday reads: “Make America Hate Again”.
Obviously, Drudge is pushing responsibility for Saturday’s race riots and deadly assault on President Trump.
It took six months for President Trump to lose his most influential supporter.
This is a very sad development.

Independent investigative video journalist, George Webb, along with his 'Bernie-Sanders-supporting crew' (Jason Goodman, Trish Negron, & CrowdSourcetheTruth) are covering the Awan Brothers (Pakistani ISI) IT scandal in Congress. Now, how this relates to Charlottesville is through a remark made in the most recent video report:

Thanks for the ping.

Do you have a cite for reference re how the marchers were re routed to 2 miles away by the cops to the site where the rabid lefties were waiting for them?

Thanks Dave

You are more correct than you know. I bought advertising on the Drudge Report under very controlled conditions. Essentially zero effect on clicks, for a ridiculous amount of money. They sell by impressions, not by clicks, and with the refresh rate, there is no telling if anyone even sees your specific ad.

I have no idea who is paying millions per year to him to get banner ads on his site, but I know they get nothing for the money, which made me wonder if the ad revenue is merely some sort of laundered payoff.

In addition to advertising sales, there is nothing illegal I know of
that would prevent Drudge from taking money to run headlines
or links to to articles too. And who would know? That would only
be between Matt Drudge and a specific person with an agenda
to promote.

Thanks for that info, that the one group was diverted so there’s be a confrontation.

Somebody’s pulling some strings...

And the LSM are going after it like sharks after chum...

Question is, who’s in the boat throwing out the bait?

The POTUS should denounce Violence committed by anyone who did it.

His Job is not to denounce FREE SPEECH.

How far we have fallen.

Drudge has been deleted from my bookmarks. I’ve been thinking about doing it for a couple of months.

He seems to have submitted to the anti-American Left. There is an all out assult on the forces of freedom and self determination. They demand complete submission to Leftist thought, or they will stop at nothing to destroy you.

TheDailyProgress: City sued over rally permit decision (Aug. 10 2017)
"The city of Charlottesville and City Manager Maurice Jones are now facing a federal civil rights lawsuit that includes an allegation that “political pressure” led city officials earlier this week to waffle on whether they would provide security at a controversial rally in Emancipation Park on Saturday.

According to the lawsuit filed Thursday by the American Civil Liberties Union of Virginia and The Rutherford Institute, Police Chief Al Thomas told Unite the Right rally organizer Jason Kessler on Monday that police would provide protection at the rally.

But at a private meeting Tuesday, after the city held a news conference Monday announcing that it would provide Kessler a permit only if he moved the event about a mile away to McIntire Park, city officials told him that Thomas had “changed his mind,” the lawsuit claims.

At the Tuesday meeting, according to the lawsuit, Kessler asked why changes had been made to security … “and if this was due to political pressure. Capt. [Wendy] Lewis indicated affirmatively with her facial expression and body language.”

The city has cited concerns about security and safety as its reasons for asking the event to be relocated. At a news conference Thursday, Thomas said everyone would be protected whether they are gathered at Emancipation Park or McIntire Park.

"...Fields’ Facebook page was peppered with similar alt-right and Nazi imagery — such as Hitler’s baby photo; a tourist shot of the Reichstag in Berlin; and a cartoon of Pepe the Frog, the anthropomorphic frog hijacked by right-wing groups — before it was deactivated around 11:30 p.m. Saturday.

You mean the Soros-paid crisis actors whose latest job was posing as “Nazis and white nationalists”?

Charlottesville was a staged event.

Cops retreated, saying it was too dangerous.

Too dangerous, my eye...

I wanted to post at LGF but their registration portal was always closed. Finally I caught them in one of their rare recruitment drives and got signed up. I posted all of two times and then got swept up in The Great Purge.

As it turned out it was all for the best.
