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

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 is not surprising by any means. Anyone with half a brain (except liberals because I don't think they even have brains sometimes) knows these crowds at Republican townhall meetings are not "organic", like the Tea Party folks were with their protests against ObamaCare. Many of these people are not even in the representatives' districts.

Soros may be funding this movement but this is more Alinksy/Obama community organizing crap. I hope the Republicans listen to their objections politely but then go back to Congress and do what Trump promised to do and fix ObamaCare.

His two sons have been groomed to take over, unfortunately.

I wish more people understood how many tentacles Soros has and how far they reach.

who is that woman with the guy in the picture on #1 post?

Because it sure as heck isn’t Hillary. Must be double #2 or 3. But it is NOT Hillary.
