Protests broke out at U.C. Berkeley Tuesday to shut down Patriot Prayers’ free speech rally, landing at least three protesters in jail, among them prominent “By Any Means Necessary” (BAMN) leader Yvonne Felarca. Felarca, 47, is a teacher at Martin Luther King, Jr. Middle School and was arrested for battery and resisting arrest after the Antifa-BAMN “Victory March” celebrating Berkeley’s cancellation of “Free Speech Week.”

Trump came to Arizona. Katie Cornelius went to see him speak. The President was in town; being a historian I've long had a desire to at least see every president I possibly can. Thus far, Gerald Ford and George W. Bush are the only two I've seen...and that was my impetus for getting tickets to see President Donald Trump. Politics. Ohhhhhhh how I love politics. I'm an unabashed Rush baby who admittedly leans very Libertarian. Fiscally I'm conservative, when it comes to judges I favor strict constitutionalist like Antonin Scalia (who is one of the men I've admired most during...

[This is London, Ontario] Full title: "London, Ontario bans anti-Islamization rally: 'Ideologies contrary to City of London not permitted in civic spaces' " (As in "We only allow ideologies that are consistent with Islam") The freedom of speech is under ferocious assault all over the West, from both Muslims and leftists. The city of London, Ontario has now banned “activities of organizations whose ideologies is [sic] contrary to the City of London.” So only if the city authorities agree with what you’re saying will you be allowed to operate. Incredible. This is authoritarianism, and the death of free society. And...

Organizers of two right-wing rallies scheduled for this weekend in San Francisco and Berkeley abruptly called off their events on Friday afternoon, after weeks of blowback from local residents and elected officials. But questions remained about whether protesters would show up anyway, and some local leaders said they still worried violence could erupt. The anticlimactic turnaround started at 3 p.m. on Friday, when Joey Gibson, the founder of the conservative group Patriot Prayer and the organizer of a rally schedule for Saturday in San Francisco’s Crissy Field, started a Facebook Live broadcast to announce his event wouldn’t go forward. Gibson said that...

This is an update to the following article: http://investmentwatchblog.com/breaking-news-paid-actors-to-protest-at-president-trumps-arizona-rally-tonight/ This is an investigation into the validity of the Craigslist Ad which popped up in an Arizona newspaper before President Trump’s Rally in Phoenix Arizona last night. (August 22, 2017). I am searching for the actual ad itself in the actual newspaper. I have found what appears to me to be an actual ad from CRAIGSLIST, BUT IT IS NOT THE ONE I AM LOOKING FOR, NEVERTHELESS, IT IS AN AD THAT CAN BE DEEMED A PART OF THIS INVESTIGATION.

""News hosts shocked into near-silence as Trump protester is shot in GROIN with rubber bullet as police open up with tear gas canisters on crowds after Phoenix rally"" Anti-Donald-Trump protests turned into skirmishes with police in Phoenix on Tuesday, as cops unloaded on the crowds gathered outside his rally with tear gas. In one wince-inducing moment screened on CBS5 and captured on Twitter, one protester - clad in a gas mask - kicked a canister of tear gas back at police. Seconds later a cloud of dust mushroomed up from his groin and he doubled up in agony. 'A guy...

President Trump is holding a rally in Phoenix, Arizona tonight, and he needs to get ready to rumble as paid actors will be there to disturb and create chaos. They were recruited from Craigslist…yet again.  It is not known who is paying them, but most likely it is the same billionaire, who has committed his life to destroying Western Civilization. However, lets face the fact those within our own government are helping him…bottom line. I do not know what time tonight Trump’s rally is, but my prayers are with him.

As protesters for and against President Trump awaited under a brutal Arizona sun for his arrival to a rally here, one question surfaced repeatedly: Which President Trump would show up? Would it be the president who on Monday night soberly acknowledged the error of his pledge to pull U.S. troops from Afghanistan and laid out, albeit with few specifics, his preferred path forward in a conflict that has raged for more than a dozen years? Or would it be the far more familiar Trump, the president who has long reveled amid his giant crowds of supporters, whose adoration more often...

Tim, Cindy and Jillian Henry drove four and a half hours from Ontario, California to Phoenix to see President Donald Trump. Frado Smith is from Miami and Ralph Medina is from Texas. They are vendors selling Trump T-shirts and hats to fans of the U.S. president outside the Phoenix Convention. Trump is holding a campaign rally there — his first since the violence at an alt-right protest Charlottesville, Virginia. Trump isn’t slated to speak until 7 p.m. and the doors to the convention center won’t open until 4 p.m.. Anti-Trump protests are expected to get going later this afternoon. Opponents...

I asked my source inside the Phoenix Police Department about the chances of another riot. He acknowledged the City of Phoenix is very political but assured me the PPD is professional and non-political. He was firm in saying, "the PD is going to protect and mitigate."

Rally attendees are already starting to line up, are camped out in chairs. No sign of Antifa or BLM scum yet, no surprise. When you're chronically unemployed, you usually don't get up before noon LOL. Doors open at 4, rally starts at 7. Even more streets are being closed, will give update later on this. City of Phoenix Police, County Sheriff's dept, State police and National Guard will be on hand. Am also told ICE will have a presence, spread the word, hope that will keep illegal troublemakers away. Local Rat leaders still whining that DJT should cancel the rally....

Thousands of people protested against an alleged “white supremacist” rally in Boston on Saturday. Multiple outlets, journalists, politicians and other public figures declared that the event that drew an estimated 40,000 people to protest against was racist in nature. ThinkProgress covered the rally with this headline, “White supremacist rally fizzles, overtaken by massive anti-racism march.” The story mocked the idea that it was a “free speech” rally, stated that there it would draw “attendees from the same white supremacist groups that marched on Charlottesville last weekend,” and that some Klansmen had announced they would attend the rally. In a viral...

Nothing seems to get under President Donald Trump's skin like an undersized crowd. That's all the ammunition Arizona activists needed to devise a peaceful protest strategy for Trump's campaign-style rally Tuesday at 7 p.m. at the Phoenix Convention Center. The plan is simple: Rally-goers must register online for tickets to attend the controversial affair, so activists and social media-users plan to sign up for as many tickets as possible with no intention of attending the actual event. They figure this will leave Trump speaking to a smaller crowd while taking a spot away from actual supporters. J'aime Morgaine, the founder...

(SF GATE) — San Francisco’s top political leaders piled on Tuesday in opposition to a right-wing group’s planned rally next week at Crissy Field, with Mayor Ed Lee expressing outrage that the National Park Service granted a permit for the event and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi questioning whether it had been approved “under guidance from the White House.” An organizer of the Aug. 26 rally rejected suggestions that it would be a gathering of white supremacists. And the local managers of the Presidio, a national park site, said the group’s politics made no difference because it had a constitutional...

Rutherford Institute founder responds to rally violence By Courteney Stuart Posted: Tue 7:01 PM, Aug 15, 2017 CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (NEWSPLEX) -- In the days since the violence of the Aug. 12 Unite the Right rally, anger has mounted, some of it directed at the civil rights organizations that represented rally organizer Jason Kessler in his legal fight to keep the rally in Emancipation Park. The Rutherford Institute founder John Whitehead said he doesn't regret taking the case and notes that it's about defending the First Amendment, not supporting the mission of the rally. "If you're going to believe in the...
