Moveon.Org raising funds from Trump protests, warns more disruptions to come
Washington Times ^ | 3/13/2016 | Kelly Riddell

Moveon.Org is conducting fundraising activities from the Chicago protests against Donald Trump that prompted the Republican presidential front-runner to cancel a rally there Friday, and promises that more disruptions are on the way.

“Last night, without consulting local police, Donald Trump abruptly cancelled a rally in Chicago in the face of massive and overwhelmingly peaceful student-led protests,” MoveOn.org wrote in an email Saturday to members. “We’re being flooded with aggressive emails and social media posts from Trump supporters. Some of them are threatening. We refuse to be intimidated by Donald Trump, Fox News, or anyone else.”

The email asked members to donate $3 to help the effort. The progressive group is funded by billionaire George Soros, and has endorsed Democratic candidate Vermont Sen. Bernard Sanders for president.

Why do they need to raise funds? I thought Little Georgie Soros is funding them. This is another liberal scam by greedy commie libs.

Convicted felon George Soros has a history of toppling governments. He’s trying to do that through Moveon.org here.
Trump’s not to blame for street chaos. BLM, LaRaza, and Soros are.

As much as I detest Trump for his lying and buffoonery, I detest these leftist jackwipes more, MUCH more.

Funny how Trump and conservatives don’t get “safe spaces to heal” and college presidents don’t resign because they were “offended”

Micro-aggregations are illegal against the left but the left can fund raise for assault/battery on the right?

H.R. 347, which updated existing protest regulations in 2011, makes it a federal crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison to “impede or disrupt the orderly conduct of government business or official functions” — and that applies to a candidate if they’re under Secret Service guard.

They are Publicly ADMITTING to a Conspiracy to Violate Federal Law. where are the HANDCUFFS???

What I saw was NOT peaceful protests. They denied the thousands who came to hear Trump his/their 1st Amendment rights.

Nobody in their right mind could call them peaceful demonstrations.

Why of course it is. I'd like to see all those "threatening" letters they're alledgedly receiving from Trump supporters which even begs the question,"Why in hell would a Trump supporter send a letter to MoveOn.org?". That's the last place they would want to send a letter. It's just business as usual with the pathological liars. People are getting so sick of their lies and deception spewed on a daily basis.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Cruz, Rubio, Kasich and Bush have all donated to MoveOn.org.

RICO it all the way back to that despicable turd Soros.

Once we get an actual Justice Department that’s not a walking joke, of course.

Um, RICO statutes? No? I guess if the ain’t good enough for the clintoons, they ain’t good enough for BMon.com. Would they even apply? I seem to remember them being stretched pretty thin as far as scope to convict somebody. I guess conspiring to incite destructive behavior across state lines is okay. As long as it’s against conservatives.

They also literally bloodied policemen, and they needed stitches. They smashed car windows with Trump stickers too. It was much worse than the media let on.

That would be a conspiracy to commit a felony. Probably a decade in jail for someone. Too bad our laws are not enforced uniformly.

Remember, MoveOn came into being after Slick Willie got a Lewinski. Slick Willie is the Founding Father of MoveOn.

Some of them are threatening.

I'd bet that the Secret Service has spotted this!
