It is time to arrest Broke Obama and Hitlerina, and Huma, and others for treason.

But now, Californian companies have admitted publically that they are paying their employees to protest, engage politically, and carry out “activist” activities. William Morgan, founder and CEO of Buoyant (a tech company), says: “It’s not sufficient anymore to say we’re a profit engine and we’re making money and screw everything else. It’s part of our responsibility to be engaged, to be active,” and “We as individuals, we as companies exist in an ecosystem. We’re only here because there’s this environment around us. It can’t just be a one-way relationship.” And of course he has every right to pay his employees to get involved in political activism (as long as they are willing). But there are major questions that need to be answered.
Would he afford the same opportunities for political engagement to employees who have different views to his own? For example, if a Donald Trump supporter wanted to protest a protest, or join a show of solidarity with fellow Trump fans, would they be allowed to do so under the same rules without censure?
A two parter. Firstly, is his company receiving anything in return for its actions? E.g. Contracts, access to officials, patronage, money, advertising exposure etc..? And secondly, when elections occur (of any level), will the Democrats be registering your company’s efforts as some kind of donation? Clearly it is money being spent on a campaign, possibly hundreds of full-time workers hitting the streets, being paid, to help defeat a political opponent – Surely this falls under some kind of regulation?
Are your customers aware that the money they spend is going directly to a political cause? If a person gave money to a charity, they’d like to know which one. If a customer doesn’t want to support your politics through their purchases, they should be made aware of where the money is going. (If I knew that money I spent with a company was going to support something I disapproved of, like sweat-shops for example, I would want to know).
America is a supposedly free country, and people are free to engage in most any practice they wish. But politics is heavily regulated for a reason. If people are finding ways to circumvent rules and the democratic process, other people need to know.
Can’t wait for California’s two mega-cities to secede. San Diego and the agricultural areas can stay.

Surely hiring anarchists to foment insurrection is violating some kind of law.
Interesting comments at the end of the article.
I wonder if they are paying all the proper taxes on that income. Maybe it’s time the IRS to take a peak at their books.
Now that Trump is making progress on Draining the Swamp at the Justice Department, perhaps it’s time to consider going after these outfits.
Bottom line is very simple. If they organize peaceful, legal, protests, fine - that’s the First Amendment. But if they, in any way, start organizing ‘the Resistance’, as in violent protests, that is RICO.
Headline: Trump creating more jobs!!!!
As well as other states.
Plus professors giving students credit for going to protests instead of the classroom
So what is the agenda these companies are pushing other than they hate Donald Trump? I suspect they want to be free to hire more foreign workers?
