Soros-Linked Former Clinton Staffer Behind 'Organized' Townhall Protests
Zero Hedge ^ | 02/23/17 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 02/23/2017 3:11:06 PM PST by Enlightened1

Democrats have insisted that recent town hall outbursts against Republican politicians occurred organically, likening them to the Tea Party.

President Donald Trump yesterday tweeted that the "so-called angry crowds in home districts of some Republicans are actually, in numerous occasions, planned out by liberal activists. Sad!"

It is now clear that Trump is correct and this so-called 'Townhall Project' is organized and centralized, not organic...

FreeBeacon's Joe Schoffstall reports that a group serving as a central hub of information for congressional town halls was founded by a former Hillary Clinton campaign staffer and its parent company is located at the same address as an organization funded by liberal billionaire George Soros.

The Town Hall Project, a group that serves as a one-stop shop of information for town hall protests across the country, is connected to a former Clinton staffer and is also closely affiliated with a number of liberal groups.

The group, which has been referenced by media outlets on numerous occasions, bills itself as a "volunteer-powered, grassroots effort that empowers constituents across the country to have face-to-face conversations with their elected representatives."

Jimmy Dahman, a former field organizer for the Clinton campaign in Iowa, founded the Town Hall Project. Dahman claimed on CNN that the town hall events are "all organic and happening at the grassroots level."

Dahman's group is closely involved with MoveOn.org, a major progressive activist group that recently launched a website, called ResistanceRecess.com, to encourage activists to attend town hall events.

The Town Hall Project's parent company is The Action Network, which was involved in demonstrations against Walmart and the protests in Ferguson.

Finally, we note the projects potential links to billionaire George Soros...

This ought to make 2020 really interesting:

homo in your bathroom
human chains across your work commute highway
calls for high tax
football games with tons of gay/feminist propoganda
promises of “The Earth has a fever, MANKIND is the virus..”

Sounds SUPER popular.

I pray they continue their hard work.

get recalled pretty darned soon by Sataan dirextly back to
Hell.
AND SO he is spending TONS of his filthy lucre in a big rush
to try to overthrow the USA (and European) governments as
fast as he can

to install his brand of NaziStyleDictatorships...
“world socialism” or “progressivism” whatever he wishes
to call it.......and flood all western lands with millions
more Islamic invaders

permanent destruction....always has been his goal...
still is....
he’s just gotten into a bigger RUSH now that he’s so OLD

Someone needs to send old Gyorgy Schwartz a Polonium 131 sandwich. Having him die an ugly, painful death would, in a small way be recompense for all the death and destruction his money has purchased. Kill his kids too.

kids appear as evil as he is
he raised them to carry on his evil crusade and they sound like they’re well trained,alas alas

best to prosecute him and put all his filthy lucre into a Soroz Victims’ Compensation Fund

that way some of the people he’s hurt may get some recompense ...AND...his evil scions will be unable to do further damage with his BILLIONS
IF I recall correctly, Russia, France,Maylaysia and UK among others have criminal arrest warrants out for him, and he’s been convicted in France I think too???????

ps: I don’t know about radioactive sandwiches but KGB reportedly is expert at them?

Wow! One artistically composed picture!

The ‘art’ on the wall, the plant ‘still picture’ and the ‘long, thoughtful look into the horizon/future’!!!

Very difficult for flyover country bumpkins to understand.

Republicans need to find a way to get a handle on this — soon.

Yesterday, there were 4 or 5 different Republicans in different states who where shouted down and confronted at townhalls/speaking events.

Posted this over a week ago on Jeff Duncan's and Mark Meadows' Fakebook pages sort of as a heads up.


The paid professional Alt-lefts latest tactic seems to be to demand town hall meetings of senators and congress men to "ask" questions and to be heard. When offered one-on-one meetings they refuse. Their whole plan is to create a coordinated social ambush and chaos with as much press support as possible. One of there stated goals is to become "ungovernable".

This is just an update of last summer’s protests at the Trump rallies, with screaming and violence designed to disrupt the proceedings and allow the MSM to blame Trump and his rhetoric for creating an atmosphere of hatred - turns out we soon got video of DNC staffers bragging about hiring the protestors and encouraging them to disrupt the rallies - once that became public and the staffers were fired, the trouble stopped - let’s hope somebody’s underground right now collecting the video on this guy and his henchmen......
