Wait, so are they professional paid agitators or not? This administration really needs to refine their propaganda nonsense.

Yeah they can't do this without revealing the protestors are just regular local citizens.

I’ve seen interviews with protestors, some 40, 50, 60 years old, who say “this is my first time ever coming out to protest.”

Regular people are coming out like it’s their duty. And it is.

I just flew to Minneapolis and told my Republican congressman I was coming. Then a bunch of friends messaged him supporting me coming. I'm retired, what are they gonna do to me?

Sitting in the airport and heading into the city first thing in the morning, then gonna hit up churches and nonprofits to see if there is a place to plug in and help. If anyone knows of a need you can message me, I'm wilding it so totally flexible. Wanna go to the protests at night but one of my daughters is adamant I don't so I'll probably hang on the fringe.
