"Donald Trump's Secret Service detail and private bodyguards had the last laugh on Friday as hundreds of protesters swarmed at the front of a San Francisco airport hotel trying to block him from coming in for a speech at the state Republican Party's annual convention. Instead of partnering with uniformed police in riot shields trying to push the hordes back, they did a law-enforcement head fake – leading the billionaire across a grass highway median and in a back-door loading dock at the Hyatt Regency hotel in the suburb of Burlingame. The move left Trump feeling like he was crossing...

Raucous crowds of protesters took to the streets late Thursday in California as Donald Trump brought his Republican presidential campaign to conservative Orange County after sweeping the Northeast GOP primaries. Dozens of protesters were mostly peaceful as Trump gave his speech inside the Pacific Amphitheater. After the event, however, the demonstration grew rowdy and spilled into the streets. At least four people were arrested and one Trump supporter had his face bloodied in a scuffle as he tried to drive out of the arena. One man jumped on a police car, leaving its front and rear windows smashed and the...

A Donald Trump rally in California turned into an all out riot when protesters got out of control.

From Lauren Bianchi, of the pro-choice group FURIE: “I don’t know exactly when escorting started but it was a response to an awful wave of terrorism, when antiabortion protesters would chain themselves to the doors to keep people from getting in. Clinics are businesses. They don’t want people standing around outside. [Activists] thought they should be allowed to have clinic-defense protests. When I was an escort, I was told that patients can’t tell the difference [between protesting factions].” Aimee Levitt “Chicago feminist group FURIE takes on antiabortion marchers this Sunday” Chicago Reader FRIDAY, JANUARY 15, 2016

MILWAUKEE – In a year when political tensions already are running high, a group of protesters is fueling the acrimony by showing up to political rallies and events with a large American flag – and stomping on it. The members of the self-described “F*** Your Flag Tour” most recently popped up at a Donald Trump rally Sunday in West Allis, Wis. They posted themselves next to the line of thousands of people waiting to get into the Republican presidential front-runner’s event at the local high school. They proceeded to lay the muddied flag on the ground and stand on it,...

Leftist protesters have been missing Donald Trump’s rallies so much as he took a break from the road that they are already protesting the leading Republican presidential candidate by taking over the lobby of the Holiday Inn Express at the Janesville, Wisconsin Conference Center where Trump is scheduled to speak at 4 p.m. Tuesday. Protesters are seated in the lobby wearing tubes covering and connecting the arms of protesters together, likely with handcuffs–a tactic leftists use to make it difficult for police to remove protesters. ... The Janesville Gazette reported about sixty protesters took over the hotel lobby, including a...

This is an all-out assault on Donald Trump, people. He’s getting hit from the left, the far left, Anonymous, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, the White House, the liberal media, Ted Cruz and the Republican establishment. Tonight a heckler interrupted Marco Rubio’s speech in Florida where he suspended his campaign.

Violence broke out over the weekend at several Donald Trump campaign rallies. Leftwing thugs battled with police in Chicago and St. Louis. One unhinged lunatic tried to storm the stage at a rally in Dayton, Ohio. He was stopped by Secret Service agents. Heaven only knows what he would’ve done had he gotten a hold of Mr. Trump. To be clear – what happened over the weekend was not just an attack on Mr. Trump. It was an attack on the First Amendment. But instead of condemning the professional hooligans -- the political chattering class condemned Mr. Trump. A despondent...

At a rally for Donald Trump, Sarah Palin bashed the protesters who have been interrupting Trump's campaign events."What we don't have time for is all that petty, punk-a** little thuggery stuff that's been going on with these "protesters" who are doing nothing but wasting your time and trying to take away your First Amendment rights, your rights to assemble peacefully," Palin said. "And the media, being on the thugs' side. What the heck are you guys thinking, media? It doesn't make sense. Well, you all get it."

Ann Coulter called Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Fox News “traitors” for blaming Donald Trump for dangerous protesters shutting down a Friday-night rally in Chicago, blistering Trump’s primary rival on Twitter.   Cruz suggested Trump’s campaign “bears responsibility” for violent protesters threatening Trump and his supporters, as social media revealed images of a policeman bleeding from his head and anecdotes of peaceful attendees terrorized by agitators. As reported by Breitbart’s Katie McHugh, this statement angered many Cruz supporters: “I think a campaign bears responsibility for creating an environment, when the candidate urges supporters to engage in physical violence —...

I have a solution for this problem of disorderly and violent protesters at future Trump events. As a conservative activist, I have attended a number of protest demonstrations against Bill, Hillary, etc. The police always have a protest section walled off some distance from where the target would be, in some cases, a block away. I do not know what would happen if we did not stay inside the protest zone because we always obeyed. The solution is to have a fenced-in protest zone for demonstrators which can be expanded as needed outside the arena, some distance from the entrance. A Trump rally is...

Rumors about Trump's visit started flying around the UIC campus Friday evening. Students were not happy. On Monday night, there was a meeting. The lecture hall, meant to hold 100 students, overflowed with representatives of student groups from the Black Student Union to Fearless and Undocumented. They decided they would march outside the rally to protest. "He's marginalized and dehumanized a lot of different groups, and they all come together," said Juan Rojas, one of the student organizers. A Facebook page was started to promote the protest. By the night of the Trump rally, more than 11,600 people had RSVP'd...

Tonight, a motley assortment of violent, radical left wing protesters supported by MoveOne.Org, forced the cancellation of a Donald Trump rally at the University of Illinois, Chicago Circle Campus in downtown Chicago. Over 25,000 Trump supporters were to attend the rally, which Mr. Trump cancelled based on security concerns from the Chicago Police and the Secret Service. Both the Chicago Police and the Secret Service feared a riot breaking out had Mr. Trump attended. In a continuation of a fearful trend among America’s youth, the protesters who were mainly University of Illinois college students demanded that Trump be prohibited from...
