_WHAT’S HAPPENING_

Over 1,300 protests erupted nationwide Saturday, presented as a mass resistance largely aimed at President Trump and Elon Musk. While tens of thousands of Americans joined supposedly grassroots rallies, the “Hands Off” protests were organized and planned by the activist group Indivisible, funded by the left-wing billionaire George Soros in what was a top-down operation linked to the Democratic Party and progressive dark money networks.

_THE FACTS_

  • Indivisible was founded by Democratic Party operatives and spousal couple Ezra Levin and Leah Greenberg and has received nearly $8 million in funding from George Soros’ Open Society Foundations since 2017.

  • The activists running Indivisible call the protests a “let a thousand flowers bloom kind of moment” — borrowing a line from Chinese communist leader Mao Zedong.

  • The group is partnered with progressive organizations like the Democratic Socialists of America, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Planned Parenthood, the Working Families Party, and the Human Rights Campaign.

  • Indivisible is also funded by Democracy Alliance, a secretive dark money hub where wealthy Democratic donors — including George Soros — anonymously bankroll groups working to dismantle America’s political and economic systems.

  • At the DC “Hands Off” protest, murals were displayed to honor Hamas and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine terrorists.

  • American Muslims for Palestine — recently accused in a lawsuit of being a Hamas propaganda arm — helped lead the rally.

  • Protesters vandalized and slashed the tires of several ICE vehicles and disrupted traffic near ICE headquarters.

  • The next nationwide protest is set for May 1, International Workers’ Day — a socialist holiday.

How about an investigation into Soros, every group he funds, and all these Deep State, dark money Democrat organizations. Follow the money and defund, tie it up, impose legal restrictions, etc. These organizations are like cockroaches and we need to call the Orkin Man.

They are not free citizens expressing under their free-speech rights, but organized subversives determined to undermine America. Treat them as what they are: traitors and terrorists. They are criminals and so have surrendered their own rights of free citizenship.

Saul Alinsky is alive and well in the democratic party. I think if you did a DNA check, George Soros will be related to Alinsky. Fomenting protests across the country is part of Alinsky's rules for radicals. The fact that the next protest is May 1st: International Workers Day (A revered socialist holiday says it all. We are teetering on the edge of socialism. If we don't pay attention, it will become the norm before we know it. Look at Germany and Hitler's rise to power!

Echoes of the 20s (USSR) and 30s (NSDAP, or Anglicised to NAZI) political action => MURDER or BEAT UP anyone who doesn't enslave himself to us. Totalitarians never change: at heart they're playground bullies who never think or grow up to REALIZE that other people are also people. Follow the money and prosecute to the full extent of the law but not beyond. Deny government employment in law enforcement or defense, including Coast Guard.

This crap has GOT to be stopped! By any means necessary. As their violence escalates so should the severity of reprisals. NGOs from the other side of the conversation need to stand up to these Marxists. The Proud Boys and III %ers are vilified as hate groups but these leftist NGOs are allowed to assault people, trash cars, takeover buildings, and burn cities. It's time to "get mid evil on their a$$"

It is frightening how many people are rationalizing the violence they are doing. To even have people say that assassination of Trump and Musk would be justified is very troubling.

Trump with the help of DOGE, is cutting off the flow of our tax money that's been feeding the dark forces - extra money helping Soros's agenda. for this reason alone, we can count on Soros and his ilk to go all in on this radical push against the wasteful spending. I mean the Hands Off movement will be funded as well as the dark forces can manage as a last ditch effort to reclaim their illegal high ground, there will likely be an increase in violence from operatives within these so called protests. Their motive: "Hands Off our Subversive Funding Supply !"

These organizations seem to meet the definition of a terrorist group. President Trump should have them designated as terrorist organizations, and with reference to Joy's comment, squash them like the pathetic bugs and vermin they are.

When light shines on darkness, nothing is hidden. What’s horrifying is the (D)eath party is not even hiding in the dark any more. They don’t care who knows where the evil $$$$$ is coming from, nor the fact that the donors want to (D)ismantle America.

Much like 2020, these are not "peaceful protests". These are funded and organized Marxist groups who are hell bent on destroying the foundations and principles of this country. As such, they have designated themselves Enemies of the State. It is time to start treating them as such. They are small and weak in the big picture. The first time they actually face full force consequences, they will not be back on the street. After that, you cut off their monetary life-line (ex. Soros, Dark Money NGO's, D.C. Leftist Politicians) and that will put the nail in the coffin. The talking needs to be done in this country, it is a time of action for The Patriots!

It certainly seems that we are going to have to bite the bullet and pass some civil society legislation To diminish this kind of activity. Some countries have passed such laws to prevent communism from becoming re-entrenched in their society.

These groups sound like terrorist groups to me. I realize that a fundamental right of American is the right to protest. But I think these guys have crossed the line intentionally trying to break America. I’m all for a full investigation into these “grassroots” groups and their true funding. Follow the money…

Leftists are hateful anti-capitalist Marxists… the heart of the DemonRat party. Our colleges and universities are ‘ground zero’ for illiberal Marxist dystopia. The intelligencia should try living in a Marxist country before pushing their unworkable ideology on the masses.

America hating illiberal leftists at work… stunning. Thank your colleges and universities for this illiberal leftist dystopia! Our Marxist academia, none who have lived under authoritarian rule, pushing for the end of capitalism.

I remember back in the 60s when I attended political rallies against what they called at the time "the military industrial complex," my Dad insisted that the events were planned out by Communists. Furthermore, my thesis advisor asked if he thought he was evil because he worked at a company which did research to develop and improve upon weapons of war. I guess that they were both right. History has indeed repeated itself.

Domestic terrorists - arrest them, along with those in charge of the various organizers - all the way up to Soros et al. This insanity needs to be stopped, and the lynise ts need to be harsh enough to deter this violence in the future.

Correction : "lynise ts" should have been "punishment"

Will conservatives be able to monitor these progressive rallys and enforce law and order? What actually is the chain of command and can a liberal media source be called out when encouraging civil unrest. Mayor, governor, president. How much civil disobedience is acceptable?
