He's mentioned it on the twitter a couple of times.

O-trap et.al. ………….take care:

 

 Writing in the Wall Street Journal, a much honored journalist, Asra Q. Nomani published an article in the Wall Street Journal yesterday laying out how "Saturday's protests and unlawful disruptions were brought to us by a well-funded network."

I am a liberal feminist whose views on abortion and same-sex marriage align with the Democratic Party's.  Yet while most demonstrators are not paid for their efforts, the protests at the Capitol Saturday, and the ones that have included stalking lawmakers inside and outside their offices, are organized by groups of which Mr. Soros is an important patron.

I started following the money for the "resistance" when it was born, hours after Election Day 2016.  I have organized my findings in a spreadsheet I have made public.  At least 50 of the largest organizations that participated as "partners" in the Jan. 21, 2017, Women's March had received grants from Mr. Soros's Open Society Foundations or similar funds in the "House of Soros," as his philanthropic empire was once called internally.  The number of Soros-backed partners has grown to at least 80.  @AsraNomani/resistance-endkavanaugh-7b577f17e41d?mod=article_inline" style="color:blue; text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">At least 20 of the largest groups that led the Saturday anti-Kavanaugh protests have been Open Society grantees. 

On Saturday I also studied the fine print on the signs as protesters waved them defiantly at the Capitol and the high court.  They came from a familiar list of Democratic interest groups that have received millions from Mr. Soros: the American Civil Liberties Union, the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, Planned Parenthood, NARAL Pro-Choice America, the Center for Popular Democracy, Human Rights Campaign and on and on.  MoveOn.org, a Democratic organizing and lobbying group founded with Soros money, sent its army of partisan followers regular missives that led them to a Google form to ask for train tickets and places to stay. ...

The agitators even have help with their handmade signs.  Across the street from the Supreme Court, a woman uses supplies provided by UltraViolet Action to write, in Spanish: "No more rapists in power."

Back on the Capitol lawn, people from Megaphone Strategies, a public-relations firm founded by former Obama adviser Van Jones, manage interview requests from USA Today and other news outlets. Women's March lieutenants exchange T-shirts for completed "Legal Support Sheets" with information in case of arrest.

Suddenly everyone stands to walk in unison to the Capitol steps.  When they arrive, the few Capitol Police officers on the scene silently watch them.  The protesters walk up the stairs – though they don't "storm" them, as the leaders have claimed.  There are no barricades, no phalanx of armed police.

Rethink Media created a "social media strategy sheet" back in August for anti-Kavanaugh protesters.  One talking point: "Kavanaugh was hand-picked by dark money groups and their billionaire backers."  Rethink Media is itself a Soros grantee, and Saturday's protests and unlawful disruptions were part of a well-funded, orchestrated network that books buses, hotel rooms and churches for such agitation. ...

MoveOn.org announced that its call the night after Justice Kavanaugh's confirmation would feature Ana Maria Archila, the Colombia-born sexual-assault victim who cornered Sen. Jeff Flake in a Senate elevator last month and screamed "Look at me!" She is co-executive director of the Center for Popular Democracy.  Her salary was listed as $156,333, with a bonus of $21,378, in a recent Internal Revenue Service 990 form.

Not a good week for Mikey

 

  • Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley said Thursday he has referred attorney Michael Avenatti and client Julie Swetnick -- who accused Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct during confirmation proceedings -- for criminal investigation regarding a potential “conspiracy” to provide false statements to Congress and obstruct its investigation.

No, it's not a good week for him.  He better have his ducks in a row or it looks like he's going to have to pay the piper.  The court of TMZ is one thing.  A US attorney is another.

He's getting some pretty significant social media traction for the idea of his running.

It's not like he's the front-runner, (although he's as good as any of the perceived field at the moment) but it's pretty obvious there's a non insignificant segment of the masses behind him.

This. He is a moron who should never have been given a voice by the left. But since he is part of #theresistance here we are.

I'm waiting to see this twist:

"omg the republicans are now pushing to investigate the alleged VICTIM of an assault instead of the suspect"

Just watch.

I am looking forward to the media pretending that they never rolled out the red carpet for Avenatti. 

Also, do you all remember Christine Ford?  Neither do the democrats.

A few will lose their minds and call you a rapist protector or something.

Funny how quickly she's being forgotten now that she isn't politically useful.

So the Kavanaugh accusers are now known liars that purposefully attempted to rig the process ---- what a disgrace.  Hope they get prison time; hope the dem ringleaders get the same.

I don't see anywhere where the woman who was the primary accuser and testified in front of congress has changed her story at all.  Saying "the Kavanaugh accusers" are liars is accurate.

Everyone gave up on caring about it pretty quick though... And it is a FACT that the media and the dem congress withheld valuable info that would have cleared Kavanaugh from most of the other bullshit allegations.

The fact that her story doesn't add up and she immediately announced she wasn't going to pursue it any further once Kavanaugh was confirmed, leads me to believe she is/was full of shit.

How exactly does this media conspiracy work.  In order for it to be able to pull off stunts like supressing vital information, you would have to have thousands of people who are in compliance and sworn to secrecy for life.   How in the world has that feat  been pulled off?

Are you kidding? They find out information and then don't report it because it doesn't fit their narrative. NBC knew the 2nd Avennetti allegation was bullshit and sat on it until they got called out. It isn't a vast conspiracy, they just don't report what doesn't help them. If you don't think the media is a complete joke, you have issues.

Yeah, it's not collaborative.  It's not like all the news outlets get together in a huddle where someone goes, "Okay, guys.  Here's what we're gonna do: We're gonna suppress these three things, because they make our assumed agreed-on candidates/leaders look bad.  Instead, we're gonna put this bullshit out there, because it will help our assumed agreed-on candidates/leaders."

In reality, they're individually saying to themselves, "I'M RICH, BIYOTCH!"
