The Leftwing "Activist" Group That Mobbed and Menaced Florida AG Pam Bondi at a Movie Theater Was Financed by George Soros

The Daily Caller's Peter Hasson is reporting this. I guess he didn't get the memo from the NeverTrumpers now seeking Alternative Funding that it's antisemitic to report on George Soros' funding of the hard left.

But he does fund the hard left, in case actual facts matter any longer.

The left-wing activist group that accosted Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi at a movie theater in June received half a million dollars in 2017 from an organization funded by left-wing billionaire George Soros, documents obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation reveal.

Organize Florida, the group that hounded Bondi from a Florida movie theater, received $500,000 last year from the Open Society Policy Center (OSPC), according to OSPC's most recent tax forms.

OSPC is the advocacy arm of Soros's Open Society Foundations, which the billionaire uses to advance his left-wing worldview around the globe.

OTOH, Soros clearly can be hit with RICO, but he can afford more justice than others so, like CGI and other profoundly corrupt criminal organizations nothing will happen.

54 They use "hate crimes" to create fake, moral-equivalence (at best) or at worst to justify "taking to the streets" on the left.

We need to destroy the entire "hate crime" edifice, root and branch, for the fraud-within-a-fraud that it is.

It is not only an entirely subjective category of entirely disparate things (ranging from a perceived insult to serious violence) but then that category of garbage in/garbage out is consciously manipulated by the arbiters of "hate crime" stats (SPLC and large urban/Democrat city governments) to "show" how its favored groups are put upon by the un-favored.

The entire concept of "hate crime" is philosophically indefensible in the first instance, and entirely pernicious in application. In itself it is not the worst of leftist oppression, but as noted, it gives too much cover to the politically-violence that comes, 99.9999% from the left.

It is basically a cop show with a main Charlie Manson storyline pre-Tate murders, with all the attendant stuff going on in 1967 (Vietnam, Black Panthers, general racism, dirty hippies, L.A. (lol), closeted homos, etc. etc.).
Anyway, it struck me that this leftist bullshit (activism, violence, division) is nothing new. It's still messed up, just like 1967, I guess.

83 Not sure if any of you are watching coverage of the Flynn sentencing.. but this whole thing doesn't make a lot of sense.

It turns out that from the documents released, Flynn knew that the FBI had recordings of his calls with the Russians. But he decided he would lie anyway?

Flynn tells them: You guys probably already have this.. meaning, he knew Russians would be under constant surveillance by the FBI.. including phone calls..

So, why would he lie?

Now, the judge asks him if he thought he was trapped, Flynn says no. And he reaffirms his guilty plea.

It kinda sounds like the judge is not sure why he should give Flynn zero jail time.. like he is being conned?

makes not a lot of sense..

Yes, I don't know much about it, and I am just speculating. But he seems to be calling out both sides.

Prosecution - why didn't you charge this considering the seriousness of the crime alleged. And why are we doing this now if he is still a cooperating witness.

Defense - why are you pleading guilty when you maintain your innocence. The punishment for this should be severe. I am not going to go lenient on you.

First - I think Flynn is kind of an idiot.

Second - He should have known that the tapes would not identify him specifically as Gen. M. Flynn - but only as an American talking to the Russian.
The Rules were very simple, here. In the absence of a Warrant, the American should NOT have been identified.

The Obama Administration had to violate the Law and the entire concept of Ethics in order to allow its' minions to OUT the identity of the American in the conversation.

So. He 'Lied'. But in a way that should have been illegal to PROVE.

Posted by: garrett at December 18, 2018 12:30 PM (jFXC2)

133 getting to the (criminal?) activities of Mueller and company (framing Trump, changing 302s to get leverage and "force" fake testimony to the Mueller narrative) ... it would be easier to get Mueller if a guy like Flynn didn't give in to Mueller, and admit to the fake crime to protect himself.

Corsi supposedly did not yield and is suing Mueller, but maybe Corsi has other skeletons in his closet that Mueller with unlimited state power ... can find (though witch hunt power is not "legal", it is not stopped).

And maybe Flynn has other skeletons we don't know about (besides threats to persecute his family), so (a secret) part of his plea was to agree to claim he did not feel coerced by Mueller's mob tactics. It is all shadowy mobster crap ... maybe this judge smells that, but can't pry open the vault with the deepest secrets? idk

It seems so; the judge doesn't like that he's pleaing guilty to something while maintaining his innocence. It seems like the 302s back him up. Sullivan strikes me as the type that hates it when people play games in his courtroom. So if Flynn wants to martyr himself, the Judge is gonna give it to him good and hard.

169 If Flynn wants to plead guilty, that's fine with me.

Democrats see that as a win. I don't see it as a loss because I never voted for Flynn.

Flynn can stick his tongue in an electrical socket too and it won't change the fact that Donald Trump is president and Robert Mueller is a crooked cop.

171 Well, as part of any guilty plea, a federal district judge asks a litany of questions before accepting the plea, including something like "and are you pleading guilty because you are guilty?" Maintaining your innocence (even if you think you are in your own heart/mind) is pretty much antithetical to pleading guilty. So it's no wonder the judge is bothered.

I'm thinking Flynn really wants a directed verdict of not guilty from Judge Sullivan. That way he held up his plea bargain agreement, and Mewler can only blame himself for having a shitty case.

And Sullivan's basically saying "If you perist in pleaing guilty when I have 302s here saying you're not, I'm not giving it to you and I'm gonna give you the max sentence for being a dumbass."

OT but what the fuck is going on at Flynn's sentencing, he's all like "no, throw the book at me"

Posted by: billionaires! At the bottom of it all! at December 18, 2018 12:01 PM (7J5t2)
------------------------------


Flynn has been destroyed by Mueller and company. He gave up a long time ago because he is broke, and Mueller has supposedly threatened to go after his son as well.

Flynn is not deviating from the only path Mueller gave him to not destroy his son. Pretty simple.

The Judge, according to Rush, has just said he is going to delay the sentencing, again.
This case stinks to high heaven, the Judge knows it, the Judge has also witnessed that Flynn is a clapping seal, and willing to catch and eat herring thrown at him by Mueller with his bare hands.
This is the same Judge that threw out these same FBI sleazebags on the Senator Ted Stevens case. Judge Emmet Sullivan is no rookie, he has seen the Mueller farm animals shit in his court before.

I believe Team Mueller just insisted to the judge in court that Flynn was NOT a foreign agent.

268 Something tells me if Flynn were to recant, Sullivan would give him his directed verdict AND come down like a ton of bricks on the Special Councel.

I'm inclined to believe both of you.

Time will tell.

But if Flynn stays the course, Sullivan will throw the book at him. How cooperative he will be following that will remain to be seen. That could be a wild card Mueuller wants to avoid.

288 So, sentencing is off til March..

So.. if Mueller is "winding down", or a new AG is confirmed and shuts him down before then, Flynn would be better or worse off with no more threats from the Mueller team? Or, does the DOJ still have the same power over him that Mueller has?

The complexities of all of this kinda leaves all the speculations (around here, but mostly in the MSM - Fox included) in the dumpster.. We have no idea what is going on, and neither does the press.
