Mushroom Man aka Donie O'Sullivan of CNN just lost what little credibility he had by treating the Patriot Front as something legit in his "Misinfonation: Extreme America." The biggest Misinfo of them all is pretending that the Patriot Front with its physically fit young members (nary a potbelly in sight), fresh blue and khaki uniforms, U-Hauls at the ready to transport their equipment and personnel, highly police escorts to protect them from the public, and dopey shields and drums (which comes off as a leftwing version of what the right is) is anything other than a Fed Front. And to protect those undercover Feds, they all (except for their dopey long-winded tiny leader with the oversized cowboy hat) wear full face masks so as to protect their undercover status.
Don't expect Mushroom Man to exhibit the least bit of curiosity about the Patriot Front. He got himself a cushy CNN job and doing anything that threatens to destroy their phony narrative such as on "Misinfonation: Extreme America" would result in employment termination.
PING!
Drones are still here. I saw one the other day. Just chilling over the Point Pleasant beach like it does most nights.
Oh and has Kash Patel or Dan Bongino said anything about these faggots or are they just letting “cops be cops” by marching as a fascist platoon?
Yes. Patriot Front cries out “Phony.” I assumed thy were all FBI. Now I think they were FBI enabled. Now a little money from NGOs could keep them going.
The Patriot Front has a leader, Thomas Rousseau. I think he is kind of like the reverend Jim Jones (drink the cool-aid). Democrats paid Jones for protests. Someone financed Rousseau and the Patriot Front. I’d love to see an audit of their books!
I had to take it down as the glow was causing the neighbors to complain.
So, yeah, they don't look like the Boomer-Con buddies of yours at Trump Rallies or the guys in the Three-Percenter and Oath Keepers movements (which were completely infiltrated by Feds, as we know from the various J6 trials, but which were never ripped apart on Free Republic).
I challenge anyone under the AGE OF 30 to respond to this post, either in agreement or not.
No one will, because there is no one like that on Free Republic. You Boomer-Cons sit at your keyboards drinking Bourbon and putting down these young guys out doing healthy things, staying fit, and protesting things like Abortion and illegal immigration.
It's both comical, and mildly revolting.
Sorry not a "Boomer".
Half lie, there are young people who are right wing but not "racialist" and Total Lie, not one of them is a member of "Feds R Us"
And you are not going to be getting any more checks to try to entrap people.
I have been around long enough to know, young white racialist people are not much of a thing. This video indicated 100 regimented so called "protesters" were marching together. Tell us about it when there are one-hundred-thousand men marching in brown shirts down main street.
Your stupid scam falls flat.
No true conservative nowadays would ever wear masks, much less full face masks which have become a hallmark of leftwing virtue signaling. The only reason for wearing those full face masks are to keep their undercover status from being revealed to the public.
Oh, and I love the tender consideration given to the Patriot Front by local police departments which give them EXTENSIVE protection from the public. Notice how the media NEVER complains why taxpayer money is being used to help such a fringe group? The real reason is so those Feds are not harmed.
You are an obvious Fed. May you suffer greatly.
You don’t know squat about me. Of course I’m not a Fed, you fool.
But your comment does illustrate the problem with many people commenting here.
Of course you are in the minority here.
A bunch of people went mask-free in good Boomer-Con style to the Jan 6. "Stop the Steal" rally (by the way, did you call Alexander Ali a Fed? What happend to him, did he go to the Gulag).
And, they all got arrested, most for ridiculous things like "Parading" and "Trespassing" when they moved into some unmarked zone or went through a door being held open by a Capital Police man.
Meanwhile, the Leftist rowdies have been protesting for years now, often violently, and seem to always avoid prosecution. Most of them are twenty-something.
The Patriot Front guys looked at this and decided to model it. The Left has had "black block" for yeears - dress all in black and there is nothing to ID you from everyone else in the large group. Very hard to bring charges.
They are (as you note) mostly 20 somethings, they pay attention to their peers, and they did not feel like surrendering the streets to the Left, as the rest of the Right has, particularly post January 6.
So they came up with their own standard dress and disguise. Yes, I realize that you and your Boomer-con friends *would not do this*. But you aren't 25. You aren't as mad as they are. You didn't sit through 10 years of school being told that as a White person you have "white fragility" "white rage" "white guilt" and "white privilege".
So, they want to demonstrate, and they don't want to get arrested. Like their opponents, the Leftist youth always manage to. So far, it's worked pretty well. They don't riot, don't fight with people, don't vandalize, they march with their signs and flags, and then get out of Dodge as queitly and anonymously as they can.
Again, you might not like this tactic, but your dislike of what the younger people are doing doesn't make them Feds.
As far as the Police letting them go, that's not always true. An entire large group of them was arrested (in Idaho of all places) and arraigned. As a result we have the names of about 20 of them. None of them are Feds. Several of them live with their parents still, etc. Several pled guilty to various charges. a couple contested it.
The trials were a mini-horror show (similar to Jan 6.) but the Prosecution lied so much that eventually even the Judge had enough and dismissed charges against several of them, including the leader.
I think older people on the Right (which does include me) should at least critique these people on things that are REAL, and not keep repeating the lazy, and false claim that they are all "glowies", that is FBI agents in disguise.
It is clear they are not.
They have a web site, it's easy enough to find, go look at it for yourself. My opinions are based me doing just that, along with watching a few interviews of the leaders on YouTube. If you aren't willing to do at least that, then at least spare us your uninformed false characterizations of them.
I am old—and retired—and have time to listen/watch to some of the wild racist podcast/videos to see what they are doing.
None of them are organized and have marches in the way you describe.
All of them agree with FR folks these clowns are Deep State plants.
You do know what COINTELPRO was—correct?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTELPRO
It never really ended.
Any such groups would be recruited by the FBI, monitored by the FBI, given orders by the FBI, supplied by the FBI.
There might be a handful of young idealistic dupes in there—but without the FBI leadership they could not function.
Police name 31 members of Patriot Front ‘little army’ arrested for plan to ‘riot’ Idaho Pride event.
Here are their mug shots. Do you think if they were FBI agents they would all have been booked like this, and had their names and images released to the public and press?
No, of course not. Do they look like FBI agents? Come on now!
Here's another article from the Spokesman Review of Spokane, Washington.
Sheriff’s Office releases names of 31 Patriot Front members arrested in Saturday bust.
Here are the names:
The claim that they are never arrested is false, the claim that they are unknown, at least for these 31, is false.
Arresting them was trivial—they are monitored every minute of their lives.
What a joke.
Btw—do you know how easy it is for law enforcement/FBI to turn these guys?
Plant some evidence of some crime on them and threaten them will long prison terms if they do not cooperate and agree to work undercover.
At this point more than half of them are almost certainly in that situation.
Imho this is how it is done.
One idealistic member of the “Patriot Front” is met at their home by local police who want to talk with them.
The cops explain that they know the young man just had a little tryst with a local teacher at the elementary school earlier that week.
The young man says “so what—we were consenting adults—who cares”.
The cop says “You do not understand. Your fingerprints are all over the doors and the furniture in one schoolroom.”
The young man says “so-who cares”.
The cop says “Well we received a tip. Supposedly next week a young man that meets your exact description is going to go into that school and shoot and kill a bunch of kids.”
The young man said “you will never make that phony charge stick”.
The cop pulls out a laptop and shows the young man a video of someone who looks exactly like him shooting kids in what looks to be that school.
Cop: “Do you want to see your Facebook posts?”
The young man says “I never used Facebook. I don’t even have a login or password there.”
The cop shows him a Facebook account with the young man’s name on it. The account includes a picture of the young man laughing, pointing a gun at the camera and saying “a bloodbath is coming soon”.
The young man thinks about what he has seen. If he was falsely accused of this future heinous crime what are the chances he could overcome this phony evidence.
He says to the cop “OK. I am yours. What do you want me to do?”
Also keep in mind that the Patriot Front never did anything. They just came and went.
