Setup? Man behind white-supremacist rally supported Obama
WND ^ | 08/16/2017 | Chelsea Schilling

Compared Republicans to serial killer and praised Clinton, gun control, Iran deal!

The organizer of the violent rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, was until recently a Barack Obama supporter and was also a member of the leftist radical Occupy Wall Street Movement, according to a report from a hard-left activist group.

The details from his recent past have many in the blogosphere and on social media asking: Is the Charlottesville rally organizer really a left-wing plant?

Jason Kessler organized the Aug. 12 “Unite the Right” rally in which white nationalists, neo-Nazis, and other groups battled in the street with “Antifa” and counter-protesters.

The torch-lit rally was held in response to the Charlottesville City Council’s plan to remove a statue of the Confederate General Robert E. Lee. James Fields, 20, who attended the pro-monument rally, killed a woman named Heather Hayer and injured 19 others when he rammed his car into a gathering of counter-protesters, who then responded by smashing in the car’s windows with bats. Authorities are investigating the act as a potential terrorist attack, though it is not immediately clear if the attack was premeditated.

A day after the deadly violence, Kessler attempted to hold a press conference. But an angry crowd shouted him down with chants of “murderer,” “shame” and “thug.” Kessler blamed police officers for “refusing to do their job.” The mob chased him until he was forced to seek protection from police.

So exactly who is Jason Kessler?

But before Kessler organized “Unite the Right” rally, it appears he was a fan of President Obama, President Clinton, gun control, Occupy Wall Street, Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran and other leftist causes.

The Southern Poverty Law Center, an extreme leftist group that’s hostile to conservatives, reported that Kessler appears to have a history of leftist activism and only expressed a “rightward shift” in November 2016 – around the time of President Trump’s election. SPLC wrote:

“Rumors abound on white nationalist forums that Kessler’s ideological pedigree before 2016 was less than pure and seem to point to involvement in the Occupy movement and past support for President Obama.”

According to one alleged tweet to Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nevada, on March 19, 2013, Kessler wrote: “@SenatorReid I think you’re a guy who gets things done and I respect that but you need to support the assault weapons ban bc its now or never.”

Another tweet, on Dec. 14, 2012, stated: “These gun nuts have bullied the American people for too long and enabled too many killers. #GunControlNow.”

“In response to a 2016 question about whether he voted for President Obama in 2012, Kessler replied: “I was a liberal. What can I tell you? I got redpilled by the media instigating the Baltimore riots.””

Here is what happened:

1. This guy is a professional agitator.

2. He setup a rally of actors playing a role

3. invited whack jobs outside his entourage

4. informed Anitifa and BLM about the gathering

5. Like his actors, Antifa and BLM are paid protestors

Then he went through proper civil procedure to get permit

He let the varioius actors go after each other and never informed them they are on the same side, making the whole thing a pathetic intramural skirmish.

Unfortunately an innocent woman lost her life over this fraud.

I know Obama had Loyalist ancestors during the American Revolution through his white American mother Stanley Ann Dunham, but were the Civil War generation Union or confederate or both or what ???

several family lines to choose from...

when the Mormons gave Obama his family history I don’t remember what it was for those members...

I guess that means the names of all those schools etc will have to be changed if Obama has Confederate folks and forget about a ship named after the racist KKK Obama of the Confederate family ...

:)

BTW the Mormons never did give a family history to President Trump...

Is there any evidence that some of the alt right were paid actors?

Since it is clear Trump won’t tweet about Soros or Obama organizing this Marc, or about Kessler being a paid actor, i sure hope his team is doing something bigger with it behind the scenes.

In the meantime...no tax cuts, no obamacare repeal, no wall.

IF true, this clown needs to be charged with inciting a riot, destruction of property and a host of other stuff. And those in govt, that knew about it should also be removed from office.

More and more evidence is coming out to support that this was a preplanned set up.

Kessler is a wannabe Alinsky who lives for the violence. The socialism is just an excuse.

For all of his presumed faults on Russia recusal... there is no better man to blow up the Occupy-Antifa oganization then Jeff Sessions.

I hope this guy and his buddy with the man-boobs go down hard.

That’s why I’m worried about the Trump Rally in Phoenix. Obama’s a professional Community Organizer and I’m afraid he’ll have hundreds of paid phony Trump supporters all over the place. They can, and will, hurt people and then Trump will be blamed.

OK heres some

Obama’s 4th ggf George Washington Overall owned slaves, a 15 yo girl, a 25 yo man, listed in the 1850 census Nelson County, Kentucky,

and a 5th ggm Mary Duvall (the mother of George’s wife) owned two slaves...60 yo man, 58 yo woman..

Obamas bloodlines have been in the New World for a long time...but never as slaves...no middle passage for Obama...

the Duvalls go back to the 1600s ...in 1694 one of them a direct ancestor of Obama named Mareen Duvall of Anne Arundel County, Maryland, had at least 18 slaves..

(the name sounds both Dutch and Huguenot and indeed on checking my bonified Huguenot records, yes he was a Huguenot LOL) never mind private joke))

Most of this info from Baltimore Sun March 2, 2007
