Left-wing activists calling themselves the “50501 Motion” are protesting Trump, Elon Musk, authorities effectivity, Challenge 2025, and pro-America insurance policies at the entire nation’s capital cities as we speak.
The mainstream media is giving the protesters glowing media protection, akin to this piece at Newsweek. The brand new left-wing organization’s website showcased apparent Synthetic-Intelligence generated photographs that have been in distinction to the small crowds exhibiting as much as state capitals.
Right here is likely one of the footage they featured on their website which has a various, younger background of individuals complaining about democracy and extremism:
They have been energetic in Lansing, Michigan on the State Capital grounds the place the Gateway Pundit obtained footage and video. Their protests didn’t match the identical demographics as the photographs on their web site, the place middle-aged and aged white leftists angrily complained about excessive matters with excessive language.
Two of the audio system on the rally have been State Representatives Dylan Wegela (D), and State Consultant Emily Dievendorf (D). Wegela is a former union chief and public college trainer, and Dievendorf is a “bisexual and nonbinary” left-wing activist who goes by the plural “they.”
Different Democrat legislators current on the Lansing, Michigan protest have been: Sen. Jeremy Moss (D), Rep. Laurie Pohutsky (D), Sen. Mallory McMorrow (D).
The largely older, white, aged feminine protesters match the demographics of Harris voters from the November election, which skewed more and more in direction of older authorities staff and retirees. Even left-wing media Nationwide Public Radio begrudgingly admitted that Harris had lost the youth vote to Trump. Left-wing media the New Republic admitted Harris lost the male vote. Left-wing media the New York Occasions admitted Harris lost 14 points among black voters as in comparison with Hillary Clinton in 2016.
That defeated Harris voting bloc, indignant middle-aged white ladies usually referred to socially as “Karens”, usually militantly advocating for transgender rights, have been seen in pressure in Lansing, as evidenced by these footage.
Their protest indicators have been largely complaining about Elon Musk, Challenge 2025, Trump, Transgender rights, amongst different left-wing points. Many indicators complained usually about “fascism.”
One Michigan legislator, Rep. Matt Maddock (R), determined to movie the protest and stroll by way of showcasing the occasion. Maddock, chatting with the Gateway Pundit, stated that “the one method to cease left-wing fascism is to face as much as left-wing fascists.”
Maddock shared this video he took solely with the Gateway Pundit, exhibiting the 50501 Motion’s rally in Lansing, Michigan as he tried to peacefully stroll by way of their protest.
Disgraced left-wing Michigan reporter Craig Mauger tried to ‘sufferer blame’ Rep. Maddock for strolling by way of the group.
Whereas the mainstream media tries to assert that the left-wing protesters introduced out ‘hundreds’ or ‘a whole bunch’ of protesters, the precise numbers have been most likely within the decrease vary as seen beneath.
On-line some have been claiming that the protests weren’t natural or grassroots efforts, however have been as a substitute pushed by Democrat PACs, donors, and consultants.
WARNING: The so-called “50501 protests” are the merchandise of a PAC and a Democrat advisor, not a motion. And it’s NOT the group “Our Revolution,” although they’re clearly aping the fashion, branding, and design of that group.
