Things keep getting stranger with young David Hogg.
First, we learn the mainstream media’s school shooting darling is the son of an FBI agent (retired). Then he goes on television ranting against President Trump when the deadly Florida school shooting last week — it turns out — was more the fault of the FBI than anyone even close to the White House.
Hogg ranted live on CNN and CBS and all other networks as his anti-Trump and anti-GOP gun control comments went viral in the mainstream media vacuum.
Liberal Nation applauded.
But now we learn Hogg was hanging out at CNN headquarters in Atlanta, GA sometime Before the school shooting. Before the shooting. Posing behind an news anchor desk?

I didn’t need that narrator explaining anything to me. What was that about?
He’s from Florida, but there he is, across the country in Los Angeles.
A life-guard asks his stringy-haired friend to MOVE HIS BOOGIE-BOARD and THAT gets on state-wide news television..?
Oh, I’m suuuure his father had NOTHING to do with that, right..?
And this really seems like the boy is being groomed as some kind of eventual media prospect.
This is eerie.
In an average WEEK of my life I get into some tiny scrape as bad as that, yet my petty problems have NEVER gotten close to getting in the TV news.
It’s like he’s living in some special WORLD, apart from our own.
Pic at the link looks photoshopped.
Seventeen young souls snuffed on Valentine’s day and now this.
This is beginning to smell really really bad.
Who’s going to get to the bottom of it?
Like they knew exactly what was going down.
Would be fitting if our President offered his dad some paid leave to shepherd his son through this trauma.
Meanwhile put Rudy’s Guiliani’s firm on no-bid retainer and send them to Parkland stat.
38 home visits and not so much as a juvenile referral?!?
And hey if FISA drive- thru window is still open, get a warrantburger off the secret menu...
It was probably local news, not state. Now it’s national, lol. These rich kids are really starting to turn me off. All communists have come from either wealthy families or the upper middle class.
Bingo!
A remake of the fast and furious debacle under Obama, where ATF made sure gun dealers were told to make straw sells, and then the ATF was going to get them for the act, except one dealer had the exchange recorded. In this case, the FBI may have expected what the creep was going to do, and use it to promote gun control.
One of my usually reliable sources says he was a ‘random man-on-the-street’ interviewee in California last year.
On The Americans they had a story arc where the KGB couple were pretending to live in a house near the high school where they pretended to be the parents of a teenage kid who was living in the house, a vietnamese agent, who was going after a kid in the school in order to apply pressure on his parents. As I recall, the technique was to needle him until he committed suicide (though I think he survived.) Just saying, it’s not an unknown technique.

So that’s another corrupt Democrat media outlet he’s associated with.
Well that makes me wonder if every time the cops came the dad waved a federal badge at them and they went away. I wonder what all the calls were FOR. This thing has more holes than swiss cheese. How can they do this? I’m TIRED of living in the Soviet Union.
The other day I was searching for an example of a communist revolutionary that did not come from a wealthy home. I thought Fidel Castro might be one, but no. Lenin? No. Mao Tse Tung? No.
I finally found Stalin. So far as I can tell, he appears to be about the only one that came from a poor background. All the rest are spoiled little rich kids.
From another article just posted on FR, the NYT:
—
““While they were hiding, Mr. Hogg proceeded to interview his classmates on camera about their beliefs on gun policy.”

Agenda much?
oh man!
CNN anchor babies!
