Trump Brownshirts Led By JAMES OKEEFE Maul 2 Nonviolent Activists

Last night, two activists investigating Project Veritas, the sting operation ran by Breitbart associate James O’Keefe, were assaulted, allegedly by O’Keefe’s security team. Both were hospitalized and being treated for serious injuries.



O’Keefe was one of the featured speakers for a group of right-wing celebrities who call themselves “Friends of Abe”. According to Ryan Clayton, one of the victims of the assault, the altercation ensued during O’Keefe’s speech. After boasting about his relationship with Trump, including details from a phone call between he and Trump shortly after the election, O’Keefe invited attendees to the stage to share similar stories. The victim proceeded to the stage, where O’Keefe handed him the microphone. When the victim began roasting O’Keefe, an O’Keefe associate attacked him from behind and began choking him.

“My neck popped six times,” said Clayton, “and I couldn’t breathe. I honestly thought I was going to die.”

At least three additional attackers jumped in on the assault, punching and kicking the victim repeatedly. They then threw the him down a wooden staircase, at which point the victim was able to escape the venue.

O’Keefe posted numerous tweets about the incident, including one with video following the incident:. http://usuncut.news/2017/01/30/trump-brownshirts-led-by-james-okeefe-maul-2-nonviolent-activists-video/
