Did this guy not get the memo?
Democrats and their overlords and their shadowy anarcho-fascism groups have people on call to attack town halls all over the country. There is nothing organic about this chaos.
Bad move

Rep. Mike Flood faced a barrage of criticism at a packed town hall in Lincoln, Nebraska, Monday evening as constituents repeatedly confronted him over his support for President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” immigration policy and what they described as threats to democracy.
It didn’t take long for the audience gathered for the meeting at the University of Nebraska to erupt in chants of “tax the rich,” while the Republican congressman attempted to defend his decision to vote for the the president’s massive agenda.
“I truly believe that this bill will allow America to experience growth, that it will allow our communities to thrive, that it will spark our economy, that it will help farmers and ranchers, that it will take care of the vulnerable. And more than anything, I truly believe this bill protects Medicaid for the future,” Flood said, speaking over outbursts from the crowd.
Flood, one of few members of his party to hold in-person events during spring’s congressional recess as the GOP looked to avoid blowback from the president’s DOGE initiative, heeded the National Republican Congressional Committee’s updated guidance to focus this August district work period on selling Trump’s agenda.
“With the One Big Beautiful Bill signed into law just a few weeks ago, this is a critical opportunity to continue to define how this legislation will help every voter and push back on Democrat fearmongering,” the memo from the NRCC, the House GOP’s campaign arm, stated.
But as he did earlier this year, Flood met a largely hostile crowd. The congressman was pressed on everything from the president’s sweeping tax and spending cuts legislation to veterans’ issues, Medicaid funding and the war in Gaza during a wide-ranging question-and-answer period – all against a backdrop of near-constant heckling, chants and booing from the audience.

Astroturf rent-a-mob
A Wisconsin Congress Critter just endured this exact same SCRIPTED ‘protest’ by paid agitators.
Guess it was Nebraska’s turn. Who’s up next, I wonder? Who is paying for this? Soros, most likely, but could be any disgruntled Socialist Democrat group at this point.
Pretty sure it wasn’t only republicans at this town hall.
Were there actually any Republicans there?
Soros funded. Republicans are idiots.
Not constituents. You are 100% right - this is a rent-a-mob paid for by a Soros NGO.
GOP Congress Critters need to STOP giving these losers ANY sort of venue!
What country can I enter illegally and get funds, medical, schooling, housing, and privileges not given to natives? Any?
We lose this movement, and we lose the country….which is the plan. Our enemies want the land. They get that, and they’ll just get rid of us.
Wonder how many busses were outside the hall.
Funded by the nazi collaborator Schwartz Gyorgy.
Town Halls should be just that
Meetings limited to citizens of that town.
Show your ID at the door.
I doubt it.
Agreed.
Good idea!
Once the word fascism comes up , you can pretty much ignore it all. So very unimaginative.
Right. When was the last time a Republican crowd chanted tax the rich? Protesting congressional town halls is a tactic the left borrowed from the anti Obamacare Tea Party. It might have cost Democrats their fake blue dog majority. Recall that Democrats ran fake moderate candidates who pretended to be moderates to capture majorities. They got wiped out in the next election after they shoved Obamacare down our throats. Despicable.

College students come at a cheaper price. It was stupid to hold it at a college indoctrination center.
