A Craigslist Ad Is Not Proof of Paid Protesters in LA

"FACT FOCUS: A Craigslist Ad Is Not Proof of Paid Protesters in LA. It Was Posted as a Prank"

Quote:    CLAIM: A Craigslist ad seeking “the toughest badasses in the city” is proof that Los Angeles demonstrations over immigration raids are made up of paid protesters.
    THE FACTS: This is false. The ad, which appeared in Craigslist's Los Angeles section for general labor jobs, was bait for a prank show and had nothing to do with the protests in Los Angeles, the ad's creator told The Associated Press. It was posted on Thursday, the day before the protests began. In a livestreamed episode on Friday, the show's hosts called and spoke with people who responded to the ad.
   
    “I literally had no idea it was ever going to be connected to the riots. It was a really weird coincidence,” said Joey LaFleur, who posted the ad on Craigslist.
    The ad was developed as part of a new prank show called “Goofcon1,” said LaFleur, who hosts the podcast with Logan Quiroz. On their show Friday, the day protests began, they spoke live on the phone with people who responded during Goofcon1’s third episode.

I've been seeing this going around but that was the only article I saw that explained it. I am not endorsing the Associate Press news wire service or any reports they are publishing.

There are stories floating around the non-official Russian outlets comparing the riots to the color revolutions in Europe, Romania and so on. - nothing verified.

Soros promoted migration, and regime change.

I did read somewhere that Trump and Soros don't get a long.
If the ancients discovered the secrets of life and created living machines, the question arises: Where do the machines go when they die?
Discover the answer to that, my friend, and you will find the machines.

The only thing I'm sure of is that I don't trust any of these mf'er Monkeypee politicians. None.

It's part of 'standard' practice to bring in bus loads of people and pallets of brick nowadays.

The thing is you can find plenty of idiots ready to loot, burn, or commit violence. You don't need to pay them and it doesn't require any real skills.

You need money to hire competent organizers, to provide for logistics, and to offer support on the ground, not to set fire to a car or smash storefronts.

The illegal "migrant" trains didn't have to pay the migrants, they just had to provide the infrastructure to organize and provide logistical support. This is the same apparatus, just another division. Our tax dollars at work. The leaders of community action groups are actively encouraging people to join these violent protests, which fit the very definition of violent domestic terrorism. All the shit bags that were fine with people being arrested by militarized police units for violating COVID mandates think that people committing acts of terrorism should be treated with kid gloves. Hospital security literally murdered a woman because she wasn't wearing a mask and not a single person involved was held responsible for that murder... but Derek Chauvin remains in prison because a violent criminal resisted arrest and died of an overdose.

If they pursue these violent criminals with half as much zeal and resources as they did every single person who so much as had a cell phone ping in DC on January 6th, it will be more than anyone has done to hold violent left-wing terrorists accountable in decades.

It seems everyone on the left has forgotten it now, but for four years while illegal immigrants were streaming across the border it was made very clear to states that they have exactly zero say in how the federal government handles immigration. There were multiple lawsuits over states interfering with that constant stream of migrants. If it's entirely up to the fed to let them in then it's entirely up to the fed to kick them back out.

People doing things the right way are sick of being sent to the back of the line.

I'm suprised it took 5 months for the anti-Trump protests to begin.
Saturday there will be a nation-wide demonstration they're calling "No  Kings Day'.  More than 1,500 places are set to participate, and of course they will be 'mostly peaceful'- just like the ones in Oregon and Seattle in 2016.

When the looney left loses the losers come out in full force. I don't know how many actual citizens are on board with this bully mentality, and it really doesn't matter; the end result will be felt for decades to come.

Since this 'demonstration' was at least five months in the planning I expect it to be epic. I hated the rioting of the 60's but Saturday will no doubt make those days look like a friendly picnic.

I'll provide a couple of links for anyone interested in more information.

And:
Quote:An AP-NORC poll found that 83 percent of Americans support deporting illegal immigrants living in the U.S. illegally who have been convicted of a violent crime.

President Trump campaigned on this.

Three times.

At some point, we must ask, isn't it time to give Americans what we want?

As an aside, I've always had a fascination for prophecy and seers; I found very few impressive, though. In researching 2025 one date keeps reappearing, from Jean Dixon's prediction in the 1960's to Baba Vanga to Mother shipton as a mnumental year that will changge the fabric of society world wide. One date kept coming up; July 5, 2025. Nothing too specific is mentioned, just that it will be a horrific event that will shock the entire world.

Maybe it will be something as benign as discovering a dinosaur species long thought extinct living in some remote jungle. One can always hope!  Biggrin
