Protests against redistricting were held in Montgomery over the weekend, but, to the surprise of no one, George Soros’ fingerprints were all over the event.
Leftwing activists showed up to Alabama’s capital city Saturday for the “All Roads Lead to the South” rally. Speakers there took turns calling state leaders “racists” over the new congressional map approved by the Legislature in the recent special session.
Riders were bussed in from Oregon, Ohio, and points across the country. The national progressive coalition’s lead coordinator has been bankrolled by George Soros to the tune of $7.61 million.
The organizers weren’t shy about what was going on, bragging about every number.
“We have over 109 buses that are scheduled to come,” Black Voters Matter co-founder LaTosha Brown told WSFA the day before the rally. Buses, she said, from Oregon, from Ohio, from more than a dozen states. The entire operation, she added, had been thrown together in “a matter of six days.”
The new map will likely result in U.S. Rep. Shomari Figures (D-Mobile) being thrown out of Congress, which is unacceptable out of state leftist groups.
The rally was co-anchored by the No Kings coalition — the same nationwide network behind the past year of anti-Trump street demonstrations. No Kings’ lead national coordinator is Indivisible, the Washington-based advocacy nonprofit founded by former Democratic Hill staffers Ezra Levin and Leah Greenberg in 2017.
Indivisible’s funder is no secret. According to the Open Society Foundations; own publicly searchable grants database, George Soros’ foundation has awarded Indivisible $7.61 million in grants since 2017, including a $3 million grant from the Open Society Action Fund in 2023.
The cast that stepped off those buses was equally out-of-state: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey and Sen. Raphael Warnock of Georgia. More than twenty members of Congress, drawn from across the country, lecturing Alabama on Alabama’s politics from Alabama’s own Capitol steps.
While the majority of Alabamians support President Donald Trump’s agenda, politicians and leftwing activists from across the country will use millions of dollars to stop that from happening.

Pathetic hired bums...what tools! Hopefully justice will find them.
“ The new map will likely result in U.S. Rep. Shomari Figures (D-Mobile) being thrown out of Congress.”
I certainly hope so!
I’m sick and tired of these “protestors” and the lapdog MSM being there for the photo ops to try and persuade what they think America is like.
It doesn’t work any more. This isn’t 1965 and we have more than 3 TV stations.................
Like the 1996 film Get On the Bus.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116404/
Richard Belzer was the bus driver and he finally had to bow out due to the anti-semitism of riders.* Ossie Davis and Andre Braugher turned in memorable performances.
It took until the ending for me to figure out the plodding plot pace was symbolic of the stops and starts of the struggle of black people to make it to the goal of self respect, achievement and understanding of the fact that they may not have acceptance from everyone in society-—my ideas.
-———— From synopsis: Rick expresses frustration over hateful and antisemitic statements made by march leader Louis Farrakhan, noting his own parents’ active participation in the Civil Rights Movement. “You Jews use us until you don’t need us.”
Instead of a productive dialogue, several passengers lash out at Rick, recycling old stereotypes about Jewish people.
Fed up with the group’s prejudice, Rick pulls over at a rest stop and leaves.
He does that to Memphis, too. He sends a few hundred upper middle aged white women to protests in a city that’s 83% black. The locals laugh at the circus. The media makes it hourly headlines as though it’s real.
And congress does nothing about it.
The Democrat color revolution rolls on.
“...Hopefully justice will find them....”
It’d be a real shame IF someone found where those buses were parked and pulled EVERY single shaerder valve out of ALL the tires. Once the “protesters” got back only to find themselves surrounded by a huge mass of pissed-off locals with baseball bats. Yeah...it’d be a real shame for sure. Spit.
Having AOC paranoid behind bullet proof glass is gonna backfire. Communists calling GOP fascist is childish. So is the “ fresh products/ fair prices” mass produced Mamdani grocery store supporter signs. Government cannot possible run grocery stores as well as the private sector does....it is one of the things private sector does best. Health care might work, but government building grocery stores is just plain dumb and dumb politics. Democrats coming to the South with morons is good for GOP
Of course
More rent a mob or rent a Karen boomer
In east Nashville my oldest girl can get 1500 to 1800 monthly stipend to be on call for local antifa
Travel maybe required and black clothes
They advertise
I’m not joking
Hope no one burns the buses, it would be a long walk home
Don’t some school districts do ‘bussing’?
Is that good or bad these days?
I don’t think they do that any more.............
