Donald Trump may have a point about paid protesters: Job ads running in more than 20 cities offer $2,500 per month for agitators to demonstrate at this week’s presidential inauguration events.
Demand Protest, a San Francisco company that bills itself as the “largest private grassroots support organization in the United States,” posted identical ads Jan. 12 in multiple cities on Backpage.com seeking “operatives.”
“Get paid fighting against Trump!” says the ad.

When this company hires these protesters they are legally responsible for their conduct regardless of their NGO status.
As in any employer/employee relationship the employer takes on the liability for the actions it's employees, because the employee is acting as an agent for the company/organization.
True Mercenaries for Peace&Change are spinning in their graves.. What a way to run a mobocracy.
If you don’t want to follow the link in a previous post:
Demand Protest is the largest private grassroots support organization in the United States. We pay people already politically motivated to fight for the things they believe. You were going to take action anyways, why not do so with us!
We are currently seeking operatives to help send a strong message at upcoming inauguration protests.
PLEASE NOTE: You will be required to attend an in-person workshop and sign our standard non-disclosure agreement.
As a Demand Protest operative you will receive a monthly retainer of $2,500 on top of our standard per-event pay of $50/hr, as long as you participate in at least 6 events a year. We are extremely flexible and can work with almost any existing work schedule. Full-time operatives receive health, vision and dental insurance for families, flexible vacations, and paid trainings. Travel expenses are always paid.
All operatives have access to our 24/7 phone helpdesk in addition to in-person support at events.

Medical and dental benefits? Travel expenses paid. $50/hr. Gotta be soros.
Indeed.
I can only imagine some Project Veritas applicants trying to “join the team” now.
I would think that in a week or so, evading the FBI on this will become much more difficult.
There were three of these cowards on an overpass yesterday. Couldn’t show their faces. ..3 cops watching them. Foul words on their signs. Very unladylike, but I flipped them off!
This was downtown dallas.
Yeah, I went there and checked them out, but for all the angst about the ads, I'd like to see one - similar to the work of some poster who screen-shotted those CraigsList ads a while back.
I'm not doubting the intent of these people, but would like a copy of the ad for my archives. I've used those CraigsList shots on a couple of occasions to prove a point.
[sidebar] The best that Snopes could do is say the charge against the Craigslist ads was "Unproven" rather than "False". Check them out to see how they tap dance around the issue.
Trump needs to arrest him as a terrorist.

Nah, put a couple of SEAL teams on him.
Better yet get one of those Security Teams that are staffed by former SEALs and SpeOps Forces.....
Bag his wrinkled ass up and drop him on the Kremlin steps.

Sounds like a scam or phishing scheme to me. Who’s going to pay $50 a hour plus a guaranteed 2500 a month for these dirtbags. I hope some leftists get taken.
Real reporters would take the next logical step - - find out who's buying the thugs...
FOLLOW THE MONEY - FOLLOW THE MONEY!
Thanks for the info, B G S!

Do you have screen caps of the Craigslist ads?

Its likely quite “real.”
Search engine fail? Maybe difference in header?
bkmk
Different “jurisdiction” but same date for the ad. Guess they have ad buys in a lot of places.
During the election they were offering $125 per day. That’s all I recall.
