"Astroturf" is too mild a term for what they're doing.


...mass intimidation, anarchy, riots...and they advocate doing this in Senior centers and Public Libraries.

The Founders are spinning.

1. Someone Needs to Call Them Out On This

4. Lobbyist-orchestrated intimidation as a political tool.
Shameful... and the M$M is colluding with those who want to keep the fact that it's scripted and orchestrated a secret.
