Sanders supporters outside Clinton's Clooney fundraiser in LA shower her motorcade in $1,000.

OMG! That is some great optics there. There is video of it on the twitter link

1. What a bunch of thugs.

[morningfog]

3. I think the cops handled it well, not at all like thugs.

[pinebox]

8. Yes they are thugs

I think that's the same rhetoric which was used on MLK in the past, wasn't it or maybe those who marched against Viet Nam.
The differences between you and your ilk and ours is astounding. You would prefer that people don't protest against a woman who they see as corrupt? So much for freedom of speech. The Patriot Act called, it says hi to Hillary.

[RandySF]

14. Please

Do not equate Bernie's personal ambitions with the civil rights or anti-war movements.

[Joe the Revelator]

17. There is only one candidate here whose personal ambitions have become a problem

[CorporatistNation]

37. This Was One Of The FUCKING BEST "EVENTS" That I've EVER Seen!

FUCKING AWESOME! SICK! POINT ON! GREAT COUNTERPOINT!

[SusanCalvin]

20. "Bernie's personal ambitions"???? Please.

He wants to be president about as much as I do. He just recognized that something had to be done, and I'm very grateful.

[COLGATE4]

27. His personal distaste for wanting to be President is

obvious in his unfailing good manners and genteel demeanor in his debate performances. I don't know how anyone could have missed it. The fact that he's only taking on the burden of the Presidency for the benefit of his fellow man should have been seen as an inspiration to the New York voters (who are very big on self-appointed redeemers). Sadly, however, it seems that a whole lot of them haven't yet noticed his altriusm. Perhaps they'll change their minds if another little bird comes down to confirm it before April 19.

21. really?

[Autumn]

26. Bernie's personal ambitions my aunt fanny. Bernie isn't the one who has been running for

President since Bill smoked his first cigar in the White House, that was Hillary . Bernie's the one who was anti war and fought for Civil rights while she was all up in Goldwater's campaign We can and will equate Bernie with the civil rights and anti-war movements all we want to. Your outrage is fucking noted.

[CorporatistNation]

39. Hillary Has Been Planning For THIS Moment Her Entire Adult Life.... Bernie Has Not!

Bernie is the person with the integrity, character and sense of purpose that not only America needs but the world as well.

[Autumn]

40. Yep.

[roguevalley]

29. i see why she is your hero

[Umbral18]

47. Projection by proxy? nt

[northernsouthern]

10. Really peace protests?

They did not surround and yell at the candidate. They simply threw money. It was a pretty smart protest.

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

11. I know, and it's unbelievable!

To be showered with mere singles must have been exasperating.

Couldn't the hippy, pinko-commie protesters have come up with some gold leaf and caviar at the very least?

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

12. First of all, How dare you...

[SusanCalvin]

23. Please,

I would take it as a great favor if you would not go there.

They can shoot themselves in the foot just fine all by themselves.

[Joe the Revelator]

16. You guys sound more and more like Republicans everyday....

'Thugs'

[SusanCalvin]

24. Thugs? Really? Whatever. nt

[CorporatistNation]

35. Why Say That.... She Loves To Have Money... THROWN at Her!

[cherokeeprogressive]

38. Wow you mean they were all PoC?

[chascarrillo]

41. Superpredators, surely. -nt-

[GreatGazoo]

44. were they mean to the money?

[Live and Learn]

46. Ha ha, Clooney said they were right. nt

[jmg257]

2. LOL! $1000? Priceless. nt

[morningfog]

4. That's awesome. Really creative protest.

[dana_b]

30. yeah, their protests are getting more and more creative

[NCjack]

5. Did Hillary have an underling stop and pickup the money? Or does it have to be bundled

into packets of $10K?

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

9. If it ain't at least $33,000 for this fundraiser it doesn't even register on her radar

[quantass]

6. Very creative! Well done.

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

7. Did the motorcade hoover them up for good measure?

[SusanCalvin]

31. .

Especially since I've been saying "they Hoovered it up, we claw it back" for a long time.

ETA:

Hi, son!

[msongs]

13. they could have been doing something useful for society instead of doing what the campaign told them

[Joe the Revelator]

18. YEAH! These stupid kids! And their political protests!!

[SusanCalvin]

22. You're kidding, right?

This is most extremely useful for society. And furthermore I'm sure people picked up that money and used it.

[SusanCalvin]

32. OMG. Really??? nt

[cui bono]

43. Well then Hillary shouldn't have asked for $1 donations.

She wasn't kidding, Maddi!

.

[MattP]

15. Did the Koch brothers pick up the tab

[Joe the Revelator]

19. That video is awesome. nt

[Autumn]

25. I applaud Mr. Gold, that made one hell of a statement.

With the added bonus of pissing off the right people.

[CharlotteVale]

28. Surprised she didn't scoop up the cash.

[SusanCalvin]

33. Not enough to bother with. nt

[CoffeeCat]

34. That is freaking amazing!

For a small investment, they snagged a story on CNN and it's going viral on social media.

The media exposure alone is worth six figures, easily.

And what great symbolism--showing that money is "thrown around" in our current corrupt-campaign finance system that has morphed Hillary into a and bought-and-paid for vending machine for powerful special interests. Anytime they need something--they know where to go!

[840high]

36. I sent the link to my

family. Bravo!!!!!

[cui bono]

42. Well, she did say she wasn't kidding, Maddi.

.

[Sunlei]

45. omg now the "City-litter police" will move in on protestors for the ticket revenue.

[Vinca]

48. How long did it take Hillary to get out of the car and pick up the money? 10 seconds? 5?
