Prescott Valley, Arizona, USA - October 4, 2016: Protester holding up a hate sign at Donald Trump Campaign Rally in Prescott Valley, Arizona
All around the country, immediately after Republican candidate Donald Trump was elected president, protests broke out involving groups of Democrat and liberal demonstrators chanting, holding signs and marching through downtown and urban areas.
In New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Nashville, Oakland, Cleveland, Portland, Austin, Kansas City, Philadelphia, Omaha, St. Paul, Richmond and 200 other cities, protesters held marches and events. There were even international solidarity protests in London, Berlin, Toronto and elsewhere.
Some of these protests, such as those in Portland and Seattle, have turned violent, with people shot and other injuries reported. Cars have been broken into, damaged and overturned. There have been vandalized storefronts, property damage, fires set and major disruptions of traffic. People suspected of voting for Trump have been beaten, punched, pushed, chased and harassed.
Some protests, like those in Portland, have gone on for five nights straight. Hundreds of people have been arrested. Clearly, there has been some organization to many of these demonstrations; although first-time observers might get the idea they’re spontaneous, the more one researches, the more one can see they’re actually highly organized.
In Los Angeles, high school students were encouraged to walk out of school on the Monday following the election by many people, including their teachers and school superintendent Michelle King, who said, “These are important conversations that need to take place. We want our students to know they are not alone… Although it has been nearly a week since the presidential election, many students remain concerned about the outcome and want their voices to be heard.”
Left out of news reports about the walkout was who had the idea for the protest and who spread the word. More than likely, it was promoted via social media outlets Facebook and Twitter.
At numerous protests, yellow and black signs carried by many of the protesters appear nearly identical in design to a framed poster that appeared in the background of disgraced Democratic consultant Bob Creamer’s office in the notorious Project Veritas videos shot by conservative filmmaker James O’Keefe recently.
In those videos, Creamer’s consulting partner Scott Foval talked about using buses to move illegal voters around. In Chicago, hundreds of parked buses were seen in a 5-block area on the city’s West Side, not far from the site of Trump protests there, evidence that many protesters appeared to have been bused in. There were also photos of buses captured in Austin, Texas near the anti-Trump protests in that city.
Despite these coincidences, a November 12 news story in USA Today attempted to discredit the notion that there are professional organizers that have been behind the protests. A number of people were interviewed for the story “from all walks of life,” according to the newspaper.
However, shortly after the article was published, it was discovered via WikiLeaks that these people “from all walks of life” surprisingly all had close connections to the campaign organizations of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, something conveniently omitted from the article.
One group the article does mention, however, is MoveOn.org. MoveOn calls itself “an American progressive public policy advocacy group and political action committee.” Online, groups that have been encouraging people to protest include both MoveOn and Black Lives Matter, as well as groups promoted especially vigorously on Facebook, such as Occupy Democrats and The Other 98%.
What do all these groups have in common? They are all financed by progressive billionaire activist and disaster capitalist George Soros. Black Lives Matter and MoveOn each have received over $30 million from Soros in recent years.
“Those that are stirring it up — and many of them work for Soros-fronted organizations — are really telling those innocent protesters — and perhaps less innocent protesters — they are in danger by Trump, even though Trump has done nothing but preach unity since he won the election,” said Marko Gasic, a political commentator for news channel RT.
“It’s an election where [these organizations] had all of the media, power and money and yet they’ve lost to [Trump]. [Soros] operates from the shadows. His only legitimacy is his wallet. His only concern is to create the kind of democracy he can prop up and gain an interest from. That’s the kind of person who is behind this continuing protest against a valid, legitimate, free election.”
Although Soros has denied that he has a direct hand in the protests, there are too many verifiable reports of connections, money changing hands and even arrogant quotes from Soros himself.
Certainly, in past government demonstrations and revolutions that Soros has funded, such as the one that successfully toppled Georgian President Eduard Shevardnadze in 2003, Soros boasted, “I’m delighted by what happened in Georgia, and I take great pride in having contributed to it.” Soros has proudly played a part in other revolutions as well in countries such as Ukraine and Russia.
As New York Times economist Paul Krugman wrote last year, “Nobody who has read a business magazine in the last few years can be unaware that these days there really are investors who not only move money in anticipation of a currency crisis, but actually do their best to trigger that crisis [politically] for fun and profit. These new actors on the scene do not yet have a standard name; my proposed term is ‘Soroi’ [a plural form of Soros].”
It remains to be seen if Soros will try to push the current protesters harder and/or further. There are rumors of a massive march on Washington, D.C. planned for Trump’s inauguration. There are also rumblings of an online impeachment movement against Trump to be organized by liberal filmmaker Michael Moore.
It probably won’t be too difficult to connect those dots to Soros as well, but only time will tell if those events will have any lasting consequences, unlike the protests that have taken place thus far.
