Slow news day for the HuffPo, so I guess they had to make a story up!
So glad they ID'd this jackass. Even sweeter that he was a HuffPo writer.
Why does the HuffPo keep a stockpile of Russian flags in the first place?
Having taken down CNN for evermore two days ago, James moves on to a fresh target!
O’Keefe is still pretty good at nailing these disingenuous pukes every now and then.
So, reporting fake news is no longer enough, they must CREATE their own Fake News and become the news?
The Huff Po is a puppet for Putin!
Note to Ryan Clayton: You’re a special kind of stupid aren’t you.
Someone needs to get to the bottom of who FUNDED this perverse stunt?
1000+ little Russian flags specially printed with “Trump” had to cost thousands of dollars, I would think. Some minor journalist was not going to fund this out of pocket, this was bought and paid for by one of the hateful leftist entities.
.@HuffingtonPost why was your writer Ryan Clayton passing out Russian flags @ @realDonaldTrump #CPAC2017 speech? Trying to create #fakenews? https://t.co/lfOuywyHIg—; James O’Keefe (@JamesOKeefeIII) February 24, 2017
Sweet!
Breitbart needs to run an article on this!
The left is communist and they do not even know who they truly are. From the hippie days to now, the left has become both Marxist and fascists and will become the Russians they pretend to hate. Unless the Islamic terrorist destroy them first. It is a race to keep America free from these brainwashed children now days.
Why doesn’t HuffPoo report on Communists in allegiance with Democrats at Code Pink “anti-war” rallies? Endorsing Hitlery Clinton for President? Printing protest banners for the anti-Trump rallies and riots?
Did O’Keefe get a video of this?
The left is still hurting over the collapse of the USSR. Many on the right do not comprehend that Russia has no desire to return to communism or impose it anywhere else. But the left understands their old ally is dead and gone and their are pissed at Russia for making a mockery of communism.
So Huffpo knows that the Russian hack is a fake story, so they had to prop up the lie.
As posted on another CPAC-Russian Flag FR thread: I was there at CPAC when this happened and had a flag just handed to me and others around me. The Yuge TRUMP letters on it made me question it. In less than a minute we collected ALL the fake flags and handed them to a CPAC staff person. That’s what actually happened at CPAC. I am a first hand witness. A complete non event. Shortly after that someone off to the far side yelled “fascist” and was hustled out of the ballroom by secret service in less than 10 seconds. For those of us in the room all this was hardly even noticed.

A hip rock band that features the Soviet national anthem and communist-inspired lyrics was on stage to open for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama at his record-breaking Portland, Ore., rally that attracted 75,000.
The Decemberists, a Portland-based group with a large local following, also closed the May 18 event.
The Decemberists typically begin their concerts with a Russian-language recording of the USSR's national anthem.
A YouTube video shows the Decemberists beginning an April 31, 2007, concert at Messiah College in Grantham, Pa., with the anthem.
"Decemberists" refers to an uprising at Senate Square in St. Petersburg Dec. 14, 1825, when a group of Russian army officers led about 3,000 soldiers in protest as Nicholas I assumed the throne, after Czar Alexander died without an heir.
The Decemberists have posed for publicity photos in period Russian costumes with the red flag of the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 waving behind them.

The Soviet National Anthem / Гимн СССР
English translation (of the 1977 version)
Unbreakable Union of freeborn Republics,
Great Russia has welded forever to stand.
Created in struggle by will of the people,
United and mighty, our Soviet land!
Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!
Through tempests the sunrays of freedom have cheered us,
Along the new path where great Lenin did lead.
To a righteous cause he raised up the peoples,
Inspired them to labour and valourous deed.
Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!
In the victory of Communism's immortal ideal,
We see the future of our dear land.
And to her fluttering scarlet banner,
Selflessly true we always shall stand!
Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!

Barack Obama’s childhood mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, a member of the Moscow-controlled Communist Party USA (CPUSA), wrote a poem dedicated to the Soviet Red Army. “Smash on, victory-eating Red Army,” he declared. He also wrote poems attacking traditional Christianity and the work of Christian missionaries.
The “Red Army” poem goes beyond hoping for the communists to beat the Nazis in World War II and hails the Soviet revolution. It says:
Show the marveling multitudes
Americans, British, all your allied brothers
How strong you are
How great you are
How your young tree of new unity
Planted twenty-five years ago
Bears today the golden fruit of victory!

Appeasement: From ObamaCare to recess appointments, honoring the Constitution has not been an administration hallmark. But when it comes to betraying secrets to mollify the Russians, it becomes a document the president hides behind.
It was bad enough that the 2012 defense authorization bill signed by President Obama set America on a downward spiral of military mediocrity.
He also issued a signing statement, something he once opposed, saying that language in the bill aimed at protecting top-secret technical data on the U.S. Standard Missile-3 - linchpin of our missile defense - might impinge on his constitutional foreign-policy authority.
Section 1227 of the defense law prohibits spending any funds that would be used to give Russian officials access to sensitive missile-defense technology as part of a cooperation agreement without first sending Congress a report identifying the specific secrets, how they'd be used and steps to protect the data from compromise.
The president is required to certify that any technology shared will not be passed on to third parties such as China, North Korea or Iran, that the Russians will not use transferred secrets to develop countermeasures and that the Russians are reciprocating in sharing missile-defense technology. ..."
"In his signing statement, Obama said he would treat these legal restrictions as 'non-binding' and that 'my administration will also interpret and implement section 1244 (sic) in a manner that does not interfere with the president's constitutional authority to conduct foreign affairs and avoids the undue disclosure of sensitive diplomatic communications.'
Betraying our secrets is easy for a president who betrayed allies Poland and the Czech Republic to placate Moscow.
Poland was to host ground-based interceptors such as those we've deployed in California and Alaska, with missile-tracking radar deployed in the Czech Republic.
Obama pulled the plug when Moscow objected. Never mind, he said, we have a better approach: a four-phase plan that calls for using three versions of the Navy's Standard SM-3 interceptor missile that forms the backbone of its Aegis missile-defense system.
The fourth phase consists of a missile still on the drawing board scheduled for deployment by 2020, a version of the SM-3 called the Block IIB. It would intercept hostile missiles in the "early intercept" phase before an enemy missile could release its warheads and decoys. The Russians want the SM-3's secrets, and Obama appears to be willing to turn them over.
The president wants to save the New Start Treaty, which the Russians have threatened to abandon if we try to fully implement President Reagan's dream of defeating a nuclear missile attack.
Russia has unilaterally asserted that any qualitative or quantitative improvement in U.S. missile defenses would be grounds for withdrawal from the treaty.
