| Want to Get Rich? Be a Professional Left-Wing Protester |
| 2018-10-09 |
| h/t Instapundit Being a professional protester can be quite lucrative. Take, for example, Ana Maria Archila, who makes nearly three times the annual U.S. median household income doing things like confronting Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) in an elevator. Archila (pictured above right) is one of eight officials making two and three times, or more, above the U.S. Census Bureau’s median average U.S. household income of $60,336 working for the tax-exempt nonprofit Center for Popular Democracy (CPD). Thanks to her encounter with Flake (above left), she is likely the most famous of the eight. |

| #4 CPD is endorsed by Democracy Alliance, founded by Soros. The Democracy Alliance operates by recommending liberal organizations to wealthy alliance partners, who are each obligated to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars each year on supporting the approved groups such as the ACLU, the Women's March, Priorities USA, Media Matters for America, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, and Indivisible. Tom Steyer, teachers' union president Randi Weingarten, and Wendi Wallace, Planned Parenthood's political outreach director, & Democracy Alliance partner Billy Wimsatt were present at the April agenda setting meeting. |

| #3 Yeah but getting those jobs is very hard for people who have a soul. Personally, I would think being a hitman would be easier than having to listen and parrot their drivel, and pretend to believe that crap in public and private. |
