On May 14, protesters, upset with not being paid their promised checks for protesting, protested outside MORE, Missourians Organizing For Reform and Empowerment, an ACORN organization which had received funding through George Soros to fund the protests.



The white guy they are yelling at here is Jeff Ordower, the founder of MORE. Ordower is long time leftist activist, previously associated with union organizing with the SEIU and with ACORN:

When the Ferguson issue was in its height there were ads in a Bay Area underground paper advertising for protesters. It claimed transport, meals and lodging to be paid for. I wonder 10 did they get home? 2) did they get paid? Many of thos in active protests that turn violent are from other areas.

Which is what this post was all about. Paid protestors and antagonists... and some are getting shafted.

What's "check?" Do you mean "cheque?"
Not in the President's American. And it's center, not "centre." And harbor, not "harbour."

The capital of the English-speaking world is no longer London, it's Washington.

And it will never be Ottawa.

Back on topic: Wage theft is a large and increasing problem.

Soros is an evil man. He is not what he proclaims to be. As a billionaire, he funds the Tides Foundation and other "Foundations" - some in the States, some overseas and they're not in the business of making things good for the general populace, that's for sure!. He's the guy behind the scenes that no one is watching. He has politicians in his pocket and has unbelievable power for one person. He bears watching but it'll never happen. I can't say enough bad stuff about this guy, that's for sure!!!

And the Koch brothers are men of greatness and goodness. The only reason they haven't been given the Presidential Medal of Freedom and canonized is because Barack Obama and Pope Francis are Kenyan Muslim socialists.

No... because they are successful and conservative.
