BREAKING: O’Keefe Media Group: Police Bodycam Footage Shows NJ School Board Officals Calling Police on Citizens Who Look “Trumpish” (VIDEO)

O’Keefe Media Group on Wednesday released 20 minutes of police bodycam footage showing New Jersey school board officials calling the police on citizens they don’t recognize who look “Trumpish.”

“The police colluded with school officials to scan license plates of school board meeting attendees who looked different,” James O’Keefe said.

OMG obtained the recordings through FOIA requests.

This is the first in a series of police body cam recordings, James O’Keefe said.

Here’s what the school board officials and police really think of ‘Trumpish’ people when they forget the cameras are rolling.

On August 8, Livingston school board officials called the police on citizens because they didn’t recognize them.

“They’re different looking. Um, they look Trumpish. They look a little scary,” Toni McLaughlin, Executive Assistant to the Superintendent told the police officer.

McLaughlin and the police officer compared journalists with O’Keefe Media Group to Antifa.

James O’Keefe confronted Toni McLaughlin in the parking lot after he reviewed the bodycam footage.

“You said that there’s “Trumpish” people. What did you mean by “Trumpish” at the school board meetings?” O’Keefe asked her.

McLaughlin briskly walked away and avoided answering all of James O’Keefe’s questions.

In today’s Amerika, that’s a valid concern.

Next...they’ll call police to Walmart...because the people there “smell” like Trump voters.

Apparently, Trump voters have a distinctive “look” and “smell”.

Beware!

The entire Industrial Education Complex needs to be turned upside down and shaken until all the leftists bend to our will or they leave. I prefer the later. There’s no fixing stupid.

So the Libs create the divide, then the situation, then? They really are following the playbook of de-humanization your opponent. Wonder what outcome they want with such action?

The fact the police even entertained the idea of looking up license plates because someone looked “Trumpish” tells you all you need to know about the “good cop” theory!

These guys are going to follow their orders, if they keep getting paid, probably right up until they close the doors on the cattle cars on the train!

I think what the teacher meant is that, the unknown attendees didn’t look zombie-like enough. IOW, they had not been indoctrinated enough by the teachers and democrats. Those “Trump-ish looking” people were asking too many questions and were being curious, and the democrats’ zombies don’t do such things.

Teachers like that don’t belong in the founding-father’s America, and should be banned from ever stepping into school grounds.

The woman said something like ‘the O’Keefe Group is the rot undermining America’. Then she compared the ‘trumpish’ men to Antifa.

“The police colluded with school officials to scan license plates of school board meeting attendees who looked different,” James O’Keefe said.

If true, this is why there will never be any meaningful changes in this country.

The attitudes of the police are: I do not care what the school board does, says or about the decisions it makes(until my kid comes home with some off the wall sh*t or my kid is in trouble for somethig)...the “Trump people” are the ones causing the problems and making me work....therefore, if I get rid of the “Trump people” I can go back to doing what I was doing and be left alone.

Back the Blue, everyone....Back the Blue.

Every single problem in this country can start to be solved at the local level. Folks need to start paying attention to who they’re voting for at every level, especially the most local ones.

Simple process....have normal, sane people run for and get elected to these boards...stop falling for this idea that in order to get the “best superintendent” they have to be given insane, multi-year contracts worth a lot of money.

Giving these radicals these ridiculous contracts allows them to do what they want. If challenged, they revert to the stipulations in the ridiculous contracts. If they get fired, they sue. Either way, they still get the money from their contracts, move onto another school district and play the victim card, where another radical, liberal school board will give them a job and another ridiculous contract.

Kill teacher unions too. Make all positions, teachers, administrators and more performance based. Fire the lazy asses that don’t produce results.

“The police colluded with school officials to scan license plates of school board meeting attendees who looked different,”

This should be a FELONY with a 10 year prison sentence attached for all involved.

I thought they are in favor of whatever pAntifa does? Perhaps the "teachers" here are pAntifa themselves in their off-time.

Wasn’t it Teddy Roosevelt’s(?) speech doesn’t it about public employee unions and how the people paying the bills have no say in anything?

I believe it was during the JFK administration that current civil service laws came into effect and then BOOM, civil service unions abound and the people get screwed at every single turn.

I think most folks would be shocked if they were told what civil servants get these days, when it comes to pay, vacation, comp time, etc etc. The private sector has NOTHING on those perks and benefits. And in order to “attract the best candidates” pay has gone up substantially, again, not really keeping pace with the private sector, actually outpacing it.

Kennedy’s EO 10988.

That EO needs to be rescinded.
