Shadow Group sends Bernie and BLM supporters to disrupt Buttigieg events across the country

The protesters say a "revolutionary group" financed them but not Sanders' Our Revolution and were ordered to keep the donor anonymous. Some claim to worry about racism and homelessness in South Bend but have not tried to meet with the new mayor about these issues, and instead flew to California to press Buttigieg. They vowed to follow Pete wherever he goes.

Pathetic. But predictable.

I think they are doing the same thing to Biden as well.

by Anonymousreply 2January 11, 2020 10:09 PM

Do they realize that if Sanders is the nominee, the word "Socialist" will be used to scare the populace and Frump will have an easy victory?

It's funny though... they'll paint Bernie as a Socialist and equate that to Communism, at the time when Frump is in bed with a one-time (and most likely still) Communist, where people at his rallies wear sweatshirts with "I'm with Russia" emblazoned on the front, where people say that they don't want a dictator BUT if they had to have one, Trump would be their choice.

Why are these Americans so stupid?

R3, I don't understand at what point the Republican party went from completely anti-communist and completely anti-Russia to Putin lovers? Like, WTF?

"ordered to keep the donor anonymous" = Boris, up to his tricks again

Until proven otherwise.

So gross. Bernie's shadowy super PAC - a mysterious source of donations that are above the absolute upper limit of $5.6k - is financing these people to fly from Indiana to California. What if they, you know, gave that money to they homeless shelters instead? Literally paying black people to be used as a cudgel against another candidate. He might want to go after Steyer instead - after all, he's doing better with black voters in South Carolina than either Bernie or Warren...

His the only campaign to pull this Trumpian shit. Good luck getting my vote in the general!

BLM, Bernie Bros, and Antifa literally admitting to being paid thugs like the Brown Shirts, Mao's Red Guard. What's next? Is AOC going to call herself a radical and Bernie going to call himself a USSR-loving Socialist? Oh, wait..

The other day, he hired this Biden protester to be his Latinx community organizer in Iowa. Again, his is the only campaign to stoop this low.

Yes, more deportations. It's time for the illegals to start paying the taxes that pay for their handouts instead of getting paid under the table because you don't have a Social Security number.

Fucking deplorable. I will NEVER forget his supporters picketing Hillary rallies in 2016, screaming into attendees' faces as they were waiting in line. You'd think they would have learned something since then...

R3/R4 Russia is NOT Communist, they haven't been Communist for decades. Your comment says more about your own stupidity than it does about Americans. The Communist Party is only now coming back to Russia and is Putin's biggest challenge to his power base.

Just another example of the totalitarian dictatorship we're headed towards.

Uh-oh.

Common Cause, the watchdog instrumental in the census citizenship question case, just filed a complaint with the FEC, saying Our Revolution broke campaign finance law. Karma in action.

^^ FEC doesn't currently have a quorum (thanks, Trump!), so it can't actually do anything about it but still, it's good to draw attention to shady practices.

The Bernie campaign was fined by the FEC 3 times in 2016. One of them for accepting foreign money.

He also didn't file his last campaign financial statement for 2016, just because he didn't feel like disclosing his campaign donations. Did anything happen to the little Ruskie stooge? No. Nothing.

r16 Wow, I had no idea. I just read Pete's latest fundraising email, saying Our Revolution pumped another $500k into ads attacking him in Iowa and New Hampshire. So fucking gross. I can't believe someone who's attacking other candidates so brazenly might get the nomination in the end. How depressing.

by Anonymousreply 17January 23, 2020 12:21 AM

Pete is unbelievably classy. A lesser man would go to the media to complain about Bernie Sanders supporters being "mean" to him like Biden and Warren do.

Pete's taken the most shit and he still doesnt whine!

by Anonymousreply 18January 23, 2020 12:25 AM

Pete's not my candidate, but I do not like the nastiness being directed to him. The far left is the enemy of the Democratic Party - they should just go start their own party.

by Anonymousreply 19January 23, 2020 12:30 AM

All orchestrated to keep the 99% from getting access to the 1% gravy train.

Health care? Focus on those illegals. How dare they steal your health care. No, no Scandinavian countries are socialist and have hosrds of grenade attacking thugs!

Cut the military budget? But then you could find education for free. Can't have that. How dare those people ask for free education. Is this a nanny state? Paywalls for everything!

R16, I posted this elsewhere but I have no idea how Bernie managed to get away with that. Can you just imagine how the republicans would have acted if Clinton or Obama were caught doing that? Clinton would have had ANOTHER republican investigation done on her. It boggles my mind that Bernie didn't suffer any consequences. It really is the lazy bums who get away with everything

by Anonymousreply 21January 23, 2020 12:36 AM

I'd vote for Marianne Williamson before I vote for Sanders.

At least Williamson is authentic and real.

by Anonymousreply 22January 23, 2020 12:39 AM

Can you imagine if there was evidence this group was sending protesters to disrupt Biden or Warren events? It would be a huge deal and everyone on cable news would condemn it.

Pete gets no such defenses though

by Anonymousreply 23January 23, 2020 12:42 AM

Pete takes shit from every direction. The Republicans hate him, the Democrats hate him. I predicted this, because not only is the only candidate with some damn sense who wants to bring youth back into politics, he's also gay. I don't give a shit if it's playing the gay card, we all know damn well that Pete wouldn't be getting this shit if he was a straight man.

by Anonymousreply 24January 23, 2020 12:46 AM

I suspect they were also behind the protest at one of his events a few weeks ago in Iowa. Some "protesters" faked a medical emergency - yelling for an ambulance - in order to get Pete's attention so they could scream their misinformation/fake facts at him.

Way to make Trump win again - splinter the dems once more.

Ugh.

But will the do it to Trump if Bernie is the candidate?

Because walking into a room full of Karens as an Angry Black Person doesn't carry a whole lot of risk.

Walking into a room full of gun-toting Deplorables OTOH... though if they did and there was video of Deps calling them the N word while Trump stood silently by,,,,,

Like you're not fingering yourself over that scenario R32.

Stop pretending you're a democrat.
