Kurt Bardella, a spokesman for Breitbart, has quit the company following an incident where one of its reporters accused GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trumps campaign manager of violently grabbing her.
"When you reach a point where you can't give 100% to people you represent, it's not tenable to continue representing them, Bardella said in a statement to The Hill.
Bardella, a former spokesman for Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), also implied that Breitbarts handling of the incident at the Trump event was his main reason for leaving.
My own personal observation is that there is a cycle of behavior that is escalating and it's happening exclusively at Donald Trump events, he said in the statement. It is wrong, disgusting and indicative of an ugliness that is contaminating the public and political discourse in our country. Life is too short to invest your time in things you don't believe and aren't passionate about. That is why I made the decision to resign from representing Breitbart."

Sounded like she was laughing about this in the audio clip just a few seconds after it happened. Kind of a strange reaction for someone supposedly assaulted.
i’d say.
the game is on to make trump’s followers seem like the new SA. was that the first group?
I cant advocate violence (not unless there’s a full blown revolution) and so far one person getting punched isn’t exactly the night of broken glass.
it’s an insult to Jews who did NOTHING but loved their country and got treated horrifically.
Sick of the Germany circa ‘33 comparisons
“Apparently, the reporter touched Trump with a pen in her hand.”
It was probably one of those cheesy little mics that plug into the phones. You see other Breibart “reporters” use them.
Well, bye. Precious little snowflake.
I don’t know. But she was inside the security ring.
Waaaah waaaah waaaah. Call me a wahmbulance
It was a silver smartphone type of device (approx 3” by 6” rectangle).
She was holding it in her right hand.
Fields used her left hand/arm to touch Trump on his right arm (near his elbow).
The smartphone did not touch Trump. She did with her hand. That is where the grab occurred on her forearm by the security person or other person (not Lewandowski).

Exactly. If and who are the wrong questions. Was it reasonable at the moment is all that matters. and the answer is yes.

“Trump is going to need a huge security force at his events going forward. They are being infiltrated by hard core leftists who are there for no reason other than to incite violence.”
Does “hardcore Leftists” include the GOPe?
I heard she was almost knocked to the floor. Surely this is series.
ML/NJ
Right. She reaches out with her left, mic(?) in hand to hook Trumps arm.
Dumb move,

Good. I was horrified at that. Unbelievable treachery at play.
I have just spoken with someone who knows some bada$$es. I’m told that what Fields did is called a bait. She rushed in.
However, in viewing the vid several times, I’m told the event is a nothing, as Fields didn’t jerk or stop even for a second. No turning of the head, no losing stride or jerking the arm back. Nor did anyone around her.
uh. . .what about that is happening with exclusively (90%) Hillary supporters. . .
How come we get, "Mr. Trump, do you disavow the KKK", yet we don't get "Ms. Clinton, do you disavow Black Lives Matter?"???
Right. She has a history of taunting police from her Occupy reporting days.
Also she has a book coming out soon.
I’m sure that ‘s just a coincidence. /s
