[WashingtonTimes] They’re headed to the Republican convention with a mission to disrupt and distract

Billionaire George Soros has funded liberal organizations intent on bringing confusion, disarray and trouble to the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, kept in touch with the world by Obamaphone,
...was ruled by a Democrat machine from 1942 through 1971. After the river caught fire during the administration of Carl Stokes they tried a Republican, then went back to being Democrats when the party hacked up Dennis Kucinich ...
next week.

And they’ve already had some victories.

Civil rights group Color of Change -- which Mr. Soros gave $500,000 to in his Foundation’s latest tax return -- collected more than 100,000 signatures on a petition to demand Coca-Cola and other companies withdraw their support from the convention. The petition that featured a Coke bottle with the label, "Share a Coke with the KKK."

Color of Change was joined by UltraViolet, another Soros-backed women’s rights organization, in the petition, an effort to amplify their collective voice against the GOP.

And it worked.

Coca-Cola caved to the pressure and decided to give only $75,000 to the convention, compared to the about $660,000 it gave in 2012. Other corporate sponsors were scared off.

To demonstrate how extreme Color of Change’s political ideology is, it’s latest campaign is to defund America’s police forces that "don’t defend black lives." Its social media feeds give no reference to the five men in uniform who bit the dust in Dallas.

But I digress. Let’s get back to the liberal mischief aimed at the Republican convention.

Brave New Films, which received $250,000 from Mr. Soros’ foundation, tried to make waves for Republicans by creating misinformation about their convention through social media.

Brave New Films is a social media "quick-strike capability" company that uses media, films, volunteers and internet video campaigns to "challenge mainstream media with the truth, and motivates people to take action on social issues nationwide," according to its website.

In a Facebook posting, Brave New Films bragged about driving a fake internet campaign -- a petition to allow for open carry at the convention -- into the mainstream media. The petition was reported on as if Republicans wanted it, however, it was simply created by a liberal, Soros troll.

"And the 2016 internet Troll Of The Year Award goes to some genius from Ohio using pseudonym: the Hyperationalist," Brave New Media wrote on their Facebook page, congratulating the original scammer. "When Washington Post and other mainstream media write about your act in a serious way -- you won. Respect!"

"For the record: we are proud that we helped a bit, delivering over 30,000 clicks to the original petition," Brave New Media added.

Deceit and lies -- that’s what these groups are up to -- and they’re using the mainstream media as their pawns.

MoveOn.org is also planning activity. They proudly took responsibility for shutting down Mr. Trump’s rally in reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
... home of Al Capone, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel,...
in March, and fundraised off their success.

MoveOn is organizing a "National Doorstep Convention" that runs parallel to the GOP’s convention where members plan on going door-to-door in Ohio and other states to urge voters to "reject the politics of hate sown by Donald Trump and the GOP."

The group’s been quiet about their plans for actual protests at the convention, but we can bet they’ll be involved. On Wednesday MoveOn urged its members in an email to sign the "Movement for Black Lives Pledge," being circulated by Black Lives Matter activists, calling Mr. Trump a "hatemonger."

Cleveland activists wary of city plans to process thousands of arrests

[Yahoo] Police in Cleveland, kept in touch with the world by Obamaphone,
...was ruled by a Democrat machine from 1942 through 1971. After the river caught fire during the administration of Carl Stokes they tried a Republican, then went back to being Democrats when the party hacked up Dennis Kucinich ...
say they aim to avoid mass arrests at the protests planned for next week's Republican National Convention, but preparations by the city's courts to process up to 1,000 people a day have some civil rights activists worried.

Thousands of people from across the country are expected in the city to protest the expected presidential nomination of New York businessman Donald Trump, who has vowed to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border and restrict immigration from countries with large Moslem populations if elected.

#2  The sooner Soros and his family tree are uprooted and cast out the better.

He has done more damage to America than anyone.
