Watch as MAGA influencer claims trans person attacked him with bucket of liquid

A MAGA influencer claims he was attacked again in California — this time on a college campus by a masked transgender person who was seen throwing a bucket of mystery liquid on him as he spoke with two students.

In a video posted on Instagram, Ryley Niemi and “Off The Record USA” were shown on the University of California Santa Cruz campus speaking with students when a black-clad person he claimed was transgender tossed the liquid and ran off.

People in the background could be heard clapping and cheering after the attack.

One person shouted, “Get the f—k off this campus” while others yelled obscenities at Niemi as the influencer took off running to confront the suspect.

The incident echoed an encounter last month between Niemi and a gay couple in West Hollywood about adoption rights.

Their conversation erupted into violence soon after Niemi said, “gay men are statistically much more likely to commit child molestation,” and asked if the two men had paid $50,000 to a woman to get her pregnant.

One of the men charged at Niemi, hitting him several times on the back of the head and pushing him into the camera, video of the confrontation showed.

Niemi has since launched a GoFundMe campaign seeking support.

“Ryley was physically assaulted, and the situation became serious enough that over a dozen emergency responders arrived at the scene,” the fundraising message read.

“We are currently taking the appropriate steps to pursue justice through the proper legal channels,” it added.

"...Watch as MAGA influencer claims trans person attacked him with bucket of liquid..."

Seemed like an attack with a bucket of liquid to me. And given the proclivities of those people, that "claimed" attack could be anything from sewage to acid.

I might add they are certainly statistically and provably more likely to engage in "domestic abuse" though I am at pains to even use that term to refer to their relationship.

I think it is criminal to allow homosexuals of any stripe to allow homosexual adults to adopt or obtain an infant through surrogacy.

Seems like the claim, as they say, is backed up by video.

It's not a claim if there's video showing it happening. Rupert Murdoch's newspapers are never going to get any better, are they?

Personally, I have always had an extreme hostility to the people who injure victims with acid.

To me it is the line not to be crossed.
