Who’s Behind the ‘Crash the Tea Party’ Website?
Levin’s Twitter account shares a lot more than his brief coming out in the Boston Globe.
He is a middle school technology teacher who isn’t impressed by his students or his current job. He promotes a Firefighters for 911 truth site, which establishes his own conspiratorial bona fides as a truther. He indulges in his dislike of Republicans in general and in Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck in particular. Predictably, he doesn’t like Fox News. Other tweets on Mr. Levin’s page indicate that he is pro-ObamaCare and loves Keith Olbermann. Interestingly enough, he claims to not be a Democrat — presumably, his views are further to the left.
On the crashtheteaparty.org site there are both Facebook and Twitter accounts that have been created for the group, both apparently created after Levin registered the domain name. The oldest post on the Facebook account dates back to Friday (April 9), while the Twitter account started promoting the site on Wednesday (April 7). The most recent activity on the official Twitter account notes that the site is getting media and online attention, while Levin gloats on his personal site that his creation has “gone viral.”
Smears and deception have been part of politics from the beginning, but the proud, brazen nature of those who embrace this sort of activity is a direct affront to the sort of civic involvement we need to have in a healthy republic. These are vile tactics by any moral standard, championed by individuals and groups that care not for debate and dissent, but instead thrive on creating a climate of mistrust and fear. Perhaps this is the kind of world they desire to live in, providing they have the power in that world.
One has to question the character of individuals involved in such an effort, and their trustworthiness in any endeavor. They create stereotypes and perpetuate them for media consumption in order to demonize and alienate their fellow Americans from one another. And to what end?
The crashtheteaparty.org website exists for one reason and one reason only: to stifle the voices of those with whom they disagree and to render mute a rising chorus of dissatisfaction with a government that is acting in ways that deeply distress a growing majority. It is a censorship plot. It is an attempt to stoke anger and distrust, and it is as insidious and distasteful to the hearts of free men as any book-burning or pogrom.
We can only hope that the exposure of this group to the broader American population will expose their dirty tricks before they discredit a movement seeking only a return to those values we hold most dear and in common with this nation’s founders. In other words, crashtheteaparty.org is the worst kind of gutter politics, promoted and practiced by those who provide only subversion where leadership is needed.
As for Jason Levin and his co-conspirators, I wish them the best of luck in finding careers they are more satisfied with — preferably, careers far away from impressionable children.
Update: If you have videos or photos of Tea Party crashers, we’d like to know about it; report them here.
Putz.
Anarcho-sydicalists, frothing at the mouth dogs, commie creeps, anarchists in black shirts [note Jason's t-shirt], and so on and so forth. Exactly what we expect from the current regime. And there will be more since Alinsky rules the roost with these chickens.
As the old saying goes: What goes around comes around.
Sow the wind, and reap the whirlwind!
Mr. Levin’s ten minutes of fame is almost over.
There is no way that the liberal mainstream media is going to waste time on a nobody when they have an endless supply of goofy, idiotic and downright insane crap that spews forth 24/7/365 from Obama, his administration and Congress.
Yes, it has been clear for quite some time that “subversive elements” are trying to discredit, marginalize, and attempt to portray as fringe: Tea Party.
Keeping in mind that the best way to sell “a million books” is to get eg: president, pope, big leader: to ban it!
The Tea Party, New freedom Party, or whatever must define a set of principles and constitutional amendments that define it.
Constitutional amendments outline:
1) If you are on the “government dole”; you can not vote until one full election cycle after you are off the dole.
2) Islime is primarily a hostile subversive political movement whose Mosques should be viewed as terrorist recruitment centers and traitorous entities; and should be closed. No burqa or similar female garment should be legal since it should be presumed that women are forced to wear them and say they like it under threat of death: honor killing.
3) No war is legal, and no American can be forced to go or remain in an battle zone, unless the war strategy is “unmercifully crush all areas accommodating the enemy until unconditional surrender”; any political correctness, leniency, or less than crushing assault by the leaders in executing a war should be a criminal offence and any recognized group should be able to go to court to guarantee we are not reading rights to terrorists on the battle field.
4) No prisoner of war, or enemy combatant, has any constitutional rights.
5) The federal government can only be funded by a progressive national sales tax; withholding tax is from now on unconstitutional. The higher the luxury, the higher the tax. Grocery store purchased meat, fruit, vegetables, prescription drugs et al exempt.
6) No former member (or spouse) of the executive or legislative branch may ever represent a foreign government directly or indirectly.
7) Until 2060 or 50 years, no former employees/owners of: banks, weapons manufacturer, Wall Street, drug companies may run for congress or president.
9) Having won the war on racism; affirmative action in any form is illegal.
10) Freedom of speech is to be protected.
11) The right of adult non –felons (violent misdemeanors excluded) to own guns is absolute.
12) The federal government can not enforce by any means unfunded mandates on the states, and any provision of law that attempts to create or cause to exist an unfunded mandate is not enforceable.
13) The USA is to use all natural resources to become energy independent. No oil from the mid-east can be imported after 2018. No environmental tax can be added to energy cost; coal is to be used and the EPA can not regulate coal beyond 2005 standards.
14) The states have the final say on which of their states’ natural resources can be developed, no federal designation of any kind can prevent a state from exploiting its natural resources as it sees fit.
15) Journalist appearing on TV/cable “news” must be licensed and certified in the fields they cover. Mis-representing the facts is a lose your license offence which effectively means “the hook”!
16) The Supreme Court must investigate (and make completely public all findings) persons running for president to certify their eligibility. Two no votes out of nine is enough to disqualify; any doubt, the answer is no. If they are wrong impeach them.
So anything that the govt deems a “luxury” will be taxed out of existence.
Nice scheme for controlling the behavior of the masses you’ve built there.
Tax everything at the same rate, then rebate a fixed amount to every man woman and child legally in the country. That’s progressive enough, and it doesn’t give the govt and the do-gooders the ability to try and control what their neighbors buy.
No.s 6 and 7 are both ridiculus and spiteful.
No. 13 is a good way to ensure that the US dies a slow and painful economic death.
No. 15 is a good way to ensure that nobody who says anything the govt doesn’t like will ever be allowed near a microphone.
no. 16 do you actually believe that today’s liberal judges would ever vote to allow a conservative to run for president. Another really stupid idea.
your comments mostly seem to have no relationship to my suggestions…
Your reading comprehension remains to be proven.
How is 6 spiteful?, unless you are an AIPAC troll?
No. 9 is also poorly thought out. What business is it of the govt who I should be allowed to hire?
Aren’t points 2 and 9 rather in conflict!
And, just out of interest, why are violent misdemeanours AOK?
10 and 15 are definitely in conflict.
Mark:Seems like you like the status quo of the present where the left has control over everything: like the MSM and its control over information, like EEOC/AA rules telling private business who it must hire by quota, like the EPA controlling CO2, like the government taxing the producers to give to the takers for votes, like former pols being hired to lobby, etc, etc.
I don’t like everything on his list but I like the effort he is trying to make as opposed to your simply sitting back and criticizing it. With some work that could be a good agenda.
Opposing bad ideas that will make the world worse means you support the status quo?
Why don’t you try thinking before you post next time.
…liberalism is a mental disorder…
Anyone who disagrees with you is a liberal.
Do you want to continue, or do you want to retreat with a small fraction of your dignitiy intact?
Not sure you read my post…seems you are posting on first blush…perhaps you should ask me to clarify or maybe you could “think before you type”.
No need for clarification. Your ideas range from unworkable to evil. That’s obvious on first reading, and gets more obvious on each re-reading.
Given this manifesto, I think “Bruce Stein” is an alias for “Jason Levin”.
My thoughts exactly.
Do not quit your day job…an intelligence analyst you are not
I think the foolish responses are from the same type; like gay person(s)lashing out…
Your dignity is rapidly dissipating.
Not one of those ideas has a chance of getting to be an Amendment. 10 and 11 are already in there.
“5) The federal government can only be funded by a progressive national sales tax;”
This is a really bad idea. It is being proposed right now. It’s called a VAT (Value Added Tax). Here’s the way it works in those countries where it’s been imposed (England, for one): buy a pencil or a house, fork over 17.5% tax.
Not only that, but the name is significant: “value added”. That means that in every step of production, some value is added, and that value is taxed.
Consider home-building: a tree is cut down – value has been added, collect tax. The tree is sawn and shaped into lumber – value has been added, collect tax. The lumber is sorted, graded, and sent to lumber yards – value has been added, collect tax. The lumber is used to build houses – value has been added, collect tax. The house is sold – value has been added, collect tax. Some years later, you put on a room addition – value has been added, collect tax. Years later, you sell it for a profit – value has been added, collect tax.
Still sound like a good idea? Of course, the liberal Democrats have no intention of replacing any existing tax with the VAT.
Susan Grant: ““Never underestimate the power of stupid people in a large crowd” as they are usually referred to as STUPID LIBERALS.” Adding “STUPID” is redundant.
I’d rephrase that: ““Never underestimate the power of stupid people in a large crowd” as they are usually referred to as LIBERALS.”
From the lead: “… (misspelled protest signs,…”
Lots of luck, loser. I’ve yet to see a Tea Party misspelling. Unlike your own pathetic demonstrations. And you unfamiliarity with that a semicolon is for.
He’s obviously been reading Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals”. Too bad he (and they) don’t have the brain power to make good use of those rules. (PS: Our side needs to read that, too. It’s enlightening.)
PS: Look for this logo at any group you’re in:
http://www.cafepress.com/CTTP
If you see it, ask the wearer what he stands for.
A sales tax is not a VAT. VATs are added at each point in the production process. A sales tax is added only when the product is sold to the final consumer.
The Fair Tax people propose a 23% sales tax. But their proposal also includes the elimination off all other income taxes. Personal, business, FICA, medicair, death tax.
I have seen estimates that the total tax burden for most companies, including the cost of compliance for the income tax is 30 to 40%. Eliminate business taxes, add a 23% sales tax, and the cost of goods comes down, not goes up.

oil is natural and so is coal, both were made by life and geology. Nuclear power is fundamental basic physics, nothing is more natural than that.
Screw you and your smiley face on drug legalization. There’s nothing delightful and charming about people choosing to make themselves insane. IT F*CKING DESTROYS LIVES, you assh*le!
The war on drugs IS winable. If we play it to win we WILL win.
Do you plan to legalize meth? Heroin?
Civilization is doomed unless we end recreational retardation!
The software inserts a smiley face whenever it sees the number eight followed by the ‘)’ symbol. It wasn’t meant as a comment by the author, even though the author is an idiot.
That said, anyone who thinks the war on drugs is winnable, is himself an idiot of the first magnitude.
1. infiltrate
2. discredit
the old 2-step process
we don’t need to bother with those items in return all we need to do is publish information about the activities of the bums — aka “Da Looney Left”. Dey discredit themselves. Mostly, every day.
our trouble is overcoming apathy and a lack of organization. Historically, preachers normally helped to supply these needs but since the Blane amendment to the IRS code the preachn’ business has been controlled by academia, i.e. controlled by Da Looney Left
But, as noted by Jefferson in the Declaration, people are disposed to tolerate abuse — as long as it it tolerable. and ordinary people have to be very tolerant because they lack the means of resistance. but when you squeeze the people who have the means beyond the point of tolerance then change becomes possible.
@5 Stein
Are you a member of Levin’s group?
Are you like gay and angry?
Now it’s gone completely
Looks like Bruce and Mark forgot to take their meds today. The nurse willbe right with you.There,there,is’nt that better now?
Do you have anything intelligent that you wish to add?
…
…
I’m waiting.
The Old Sage reminds us that “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world”. Reflect for a moment on the absolute death-grip that the Looney Left has on education. Not only is education mandatory, they control the curriculum, — and — because most parents must have two incomes — parental involvement in fetching up children is kept minimal.
It wasn’t like that in 1950.
Just four words for you, Jason:
Hair Club For Men
Hey, I resemble that.
All I do is scrape the hair off of my back and past it to the top of my head. Beats using sprayon hair.
“He claimed to have operatives in tea party groups in every major city.” – Wow! I knew it! we’re lost! Virginia, we must tell the children!
What the traction of the Tea Party is and will be, we cannot assess yet –
Yet it is clear that, at least in the 2010 elections, the Tea Party will influence things -
And it’s been for a while that while republicans are kind of uneasy with a movement they don’t really have control over, the Dems are really, really scared of them -
And the best proof for this is the constant attacks on it by MSM and by little MoveOnOrg jobbers like Levin (he reminds me of Patrick from “Bad Fiction” whose site was set up to discredit the Birthers) – attacks trying to blunt the movement by denigration, ridicule and…
… intimidation: “Operatives in any major cities” – right, and I’m scared as hell –
See you in November, buddy – all liberals having stayed home in the voting day –
The funny thing is that by going “viral”, Mr. Levin has defeated his intentions since there will be plenty of awareness and therefore even more cameras and videos at every Tea Party event. And when these perverse wankers cause trouble, almost assured since immaturity is demonstrated by a lack of emotional control as evidenced by their website and the hate-filled postings to their forum, their 15 minutes of fame will not be what they expect. Instead, their exercising of their 1st Amendment right to make a fool out of themselves in public will be permanently recorded for retrieval by future employers, friends, potential mates, and so on, forever and ever, amen.
My first thought was that scum like this shouldn’t be given the time of day. But exposing this is a good thing. Next, who is he to call me a racist, homophobe and a moron? I guess I should elaborate on the “scum” thing, but he’s not worth it.
***The crashtheteaparty.org website exists for one reason and one reason only: to stifle the voices of those with whom they disagree…*
That’s one way of putting it.
I prefer:
They exist for one reason: to provide material to a mainstream media all too eager to portray the tea party as a racist, extreme fringe.
Expect the N word to be shouted out by these infiltrators. The previously alerted media will be there to record the event, the infiltrators will disappear, and of course the msm will report just how “racist” are the Teapartiers. It’s the oldest trick in the book, Hitler put murdered Polish officers into German uniforms and claimed Poland had killed innocent German officers, thus was the justification for WW2. I assume the msm has already written the stories. With phone cams now however, the operatives will be identified and the msm will claim, weeks later, they were “taken in” by a few nut cases that of course have NOTHING to do with Obama, SEIU, or ANY Democrats. Then, just before the Fall elections, we will see the Progressive magazines do an “expose’ ” on just how such a thing could happen, and say that the Teaparties were at fault all along. This is all out of the Alinsky and Communist propaganda playbook, and all so predictable.
Even if a moron tried this today it wouldn’t work. It’s not easy to “slip away” surrounded by thousands of Tea Party members, or any group for that matter, and especially those that have many video recording devices. We’ve reached a point where because of cheap technology attempts like this will fail.
In the long run it may even do a better job of helping to damage the opposition. A good example of this is Andrew Breitbart’s video of SEIU thugs in Searchlight Nevada, who accused him of throwing eggs at the Tea Party bus. Not only was he able to refute false accusations with clarity, one of the SEIU culprits named Jesse Walker was later identified since he was carrying an egg in his hand in that video. Everything the left does is out in the open for the world to see. Not to mention that the fool’s website has been exposed. Patriots will be ready and waiting.
The irony here is that the party crashers now afford a level of insurance to the TEA Party. If there were any TEA partiers who shouted racist slogans, they could easily be dismissed as infiltrators.
Granted, this is mostly hypothetical. I’ve been to three TEA Parties in the last year and I’ve never heard a racist comment at any of them. Without exception I’ve met good, normal people who are simply fed up with bad government.
This is the liberal way. What you can’t control, you must destroy.
because they care about the people so much.
I took a look at the FB site and there seems to be a counter infiltration going on. I wonder how long that will last until the admin of the FB page initiates a purge. Wouldn’t want the echo chamber muddled by dissenting voices after all.
This guy is a moron, rather than bragging that he had operatives in every city he should have said that his group was just focusing on one tea party, but all those other racist, crazy, kooky signs you saw in other cities, well those were real tea partieries. But because he couldn’t resist bragging he just released tea partiers in all major cities from culpability. Fool.
Now, Mr. Bond, that I have you tied up, let me spend five minutes explaining why I’m so brilliantly evil before I dispatch you. During which time you can slip your bonds and escape…
There should be a word for this compulsion to gloat about how brilliantly evil you are while creating your own downfall, if there isn’t one already.
In “The Incredibles”, they called in monologing.
The word “hubris,” as in a Greek tragedy, works for me.
Levin is a typical self-loathing, insecure, narssistic lefty who needs the attention. His movement, like a bowel-movement, will be flushed down the toilet.
What is upsetting is that he is a teacher and uses his platform as a teacher to influence his students; no doubt he is an AGW supporter. And despite his temporary notoriety and his demeaning comments about his students and job, he will retain his teaching position. Would a conservative saying such things be given the same latitude??? I think we know the answer.
Tool!
Levine can’t be a tool. After all, a tool is useful.
“What is upsetting is that he is a teacher and uses his platform as a teacher to influence his students;”
Upsetting? Definitely. Surprising? NO. Not at all. The surprise would be an educator who is NOT radically left politically.
Yet another example of the “inner fascist” lurking within the Progressive Left: if you can’t win the argument with reason, smear and intimidate your opponent.
Videotape and exposure whould do it. Offer a modest reward for identifying them. Look up their party registration. Out them publicly in your newspaper. Give the evidence to the police if they commit any crimes.
The tactic alone ought to be enough to discredit the anti-tea-party movement. I understand government employees, and recipients of government benefits don’t want the ride to stop. There is no more to take, and it will stop, regardless of anyone’s wishes. The only questions are when and how.
This is what we need to do. We need a prominent blogger to host images and names of people that are caught trying to infiltrate Tea Party or Conservative movements. A “clearinghouse” so to speak of lefties.
Have a look at the “Expose the Party Crashers” article here at PJM.
I don’t think a ‘modest reward’ is even necessary. The reward is in the act itself.
Just to add-
Reporter to Tea Party Organizer: “What do you have to say about some of the signs here today that some might find objectionable or extreme in their rhetoric?”
Tea Party Organizer: “We are aware of a group call Crashtheteaparty.org that organized people opposed to tea parties to bring signs just like that. They have boasted that they recruited disrupters in 65 major cities, so it’s safe to assume that those signs belong to them”
The MSM is still circulating pictures of the signs held by the LaRouchies. They won’t bother to check with anyone.
Figures he would be from the liberal pacific n.w.
What makes you think the PNW is liberal? Ever been to Idaho? Isn’t that where all your supremacist friends hang out?
What makes us think it is liberal? Perhaps all the moonbat liberal programs they support out there?
As to the claim that someone who disagrees with you is a racial supremecist, that’s the DNC talking point of the week, isn’t it. Have you ever managed to think for yourself?
You know what they say. Those that can’t,(teach).
It doesn’t surprise me he’s from the Pacific NW. I live there in the Socialist Republic of Washington where in the western side of the state (anywhere near loserville Seattle) you can’t put a sticker on your car that is anti-Obama without fear of having it vandalized. This guy hates the Tea Party because it wants to limit government which cuts into his union pay or subsidies for his leftist friends. Here in WA we are one of only something like 7-8 states that don’t have a state income tax, yet because of our tax and spend commie masters we still manage to break the top 10 in tax burdens in the country. Can you imagine how many creative ways they have to tax us to rank so high without a state income tax?! Gotta pay for those welfare leftist votes somehow. I’ve been trying to sell my house here for over a year so I can move to the free state of Oklahoma because I’m sick of having my money stolen by these crooks so they can redistribute it to losers like this guy trying to infiltrate the Tea Parties. When enough of us producers leave this state they’ll be wondering why they don’t have enough money to pay for their freebies.
Imagine the outrage and charges of jackbooted brown-shirting were the assembly rights of anti-war or anti-globo protesters interfered with in such blatant and repetitive fashion.
Apparently, free speech rights for the left include vandalism, assaulting conservative speakers on college campuses, shutting down events they don’t like and interfering in the free assembly rights of others.
Repressive Tolerance in action, folks. Courtesy of our corrupt and decadent citadels of ‘higher education’.
The American left has slipped into fascism.
slipped??
They dove in head first.
Obviously he’s a loser. The question is whether he qualifies as a “pathetic” loser.
1) Imprecise to the point of uselessness. Are companies that do govt contracts considered “on the dole”? If so, does that mean employees of those companies can’t vote? What about people who work directly for the govt on the dole? If so, how does that affect the military?
2) Hate filled and irrational.
3) So we don’t fight anyone, unless we are prepared to totally anhilate them? In your world, a measured response is NEVER the right answer? If a govt kidnaps or kills a diplomat, we either do nothing or anhilate the country? If a terrorist group blows up a pipe line, we either do nothing or we anhilate the country?
If tea partiers were actually racists, why the need to create a group to pretend to be racists? Wouldn’t it be self-evident?
As for the actual accomplishment of this venture, congrats. You just innoculated any true racist tea partier who has been holding his/her fore for fear of damaging the movement. Don’t be surprised to see more signs being carried by racists wearing “crashtheteaparty” tees.
heh
Exactly. If the TEA Parties deserve to fail, let them fail on their own merits. If you don’t like the TEA Party movement, engage it in debate, rather than trying to subvert it through treachery.
At any Tea Party rally, take cell phone pictures or videos of anyone who carries a sign advocating racism or violence, or who acts offensively during the course of the rally.
Later on, search out their identity and political history, and publish or blog about what political persuasion they actually endorse. Do not publish addresses or anything that would endanger anyone’s safety.
Leftists often leave tracks. Sunlight is effective.
Nobody’s acted on this yet (and I sure don’t have time), but shouldn’t someone be concerned that a privileged white male school teacher is trying to have a fun time by parading racist signs? Isn’t any kind of sign parading racist statements actually encouraging and mainstreaming racism? Maybe some concerned Types Against Racism need to start asking questions about what kind of racists employ Jason Levin to teach impressionable young minds.
I will be at the Wednesday Tea Party event here in Boston, and hope to take quite a few pictures. Hopefully, I will have caught some Moonbat antics to send here, to PJM.
That being said, what a sham these people are. Rather than promote better ideas, counter Tea Party planks with their own facts, use logic and persistence, their “protest” is to march around like fools with their moronic placards, and “disrupt” the event.
The true mark of the intellectually bankrupt: we have nothing to say except “neener neener.”
Nice Try Bruce, but the “Tea Party” movement is not a homogeneous block of followers. They are regular people from all ethnicity, background, and social strata who are united is just a few simple principles. 1) Government is too big and intrusive and it’s corollary 2) Government is too expensive. We may disagree about almost everything else but we all hold to these beliefs.
As a libertarian myself, I would NEVER agree with points 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 13, 14, 15 or 16 of your proposed “manifesto”. I don’t see anything in there about fiscal responsibility and personal freedom which are the driving core of the Tea Party gatherings.
It’s pretty ironic to cry racism at a large and diverse group of people. I thought progressives were too good for those broad generalizations.
Bruce,
Are you sure you are from the tea parties?
Read through your suggestions again. To many of those limit freedom, instead of protecting it.
I’m not amazed at the left for anything they do! I left that other party after 27 years. The left has nothing to offer but lies and deceit! They don’t have anything decent to say! I’ve waited for 35 years to watch these people self-emplode! They are the racists, liars, cheats what ever they accuse us of doing………”they are doing”!
Something about those leftist men teachers, wasn’t it another teacher that was attacking Palin in Alaska last year?
This is the self-Stalinization of America. Individuals with collectivist Marxist impulses do what, in a Stalinist nation, the government would be organizing them to do– smear, propagandize and discredit people who have the truth on their side.
It just proves we are never free of this sort of threat, and from time to time the people who would do it are caught up in a self-important wave of pseudo-inevitability, it’s our time, yada yada. Then they reveal themselves.
NEVER FORGET who they are, and what they’ll do when they think they have a good chance of succeeding.
NEVER FORGET.
truth, justice, decency, all disposable and worthless. The result is everything, the rules are nothing. That’s the left.
It’s pretty funny that anyone as syntax-challenged as this gentleman considers himself fit to call others morons. For example: what is that semi-colon doing after the word morons? And what does he think it means to “propagate” a propensity? And how about this little gem of subject-verb agreement:
“Our stated intentions, or ‘manifesto’ as some of the conservative bloggers have called it is absolutely sincere.”
I’m not at all surprised to discover that somebody of this intellectual caliber is dim enough to be a Truther. But it’s sad to find out that he’s a teacher . . .
Talk about a double standard.
The same exquisitely-sensitive progressives who rush to admonish us after every Islamist atrocity not to consider all Muslims terrorists or sympathizers (news flash: we don’t) seem to have no trouble using internet rumors, fabricated incidents and a handful of injudiciously-worded protest signs (gee, we never saw any of those during the last administration) to slander a huge swath of the American public.
But given the Left’s sliding scale of what is appropriate free speech — anti-globo vandalism and assaulting conservative speakers on college campuses are OK, but clean, peaceful tea party protests are ‘hate speech’ — we shouldn’t be surprised.
They stopped plying by the rules a long, long time ago, and it seems the capacity for forbearance with their antics has about run out.
The epitome of a modern leftist. He has no ability to win a debate. He cannot convince anyone of the logic of his ideology or specific political positions. All the leftists can do is subvert and destroy. They are worthless and the nation recognizes it.
I submit that the existence of the anti-Tea Party website, and the attendant publicity of it, has effectively immunized the Tea Party movement against any claims of hate speech or racism. Any such incidents can simply be attributed to the infiltrators, no matter who actually performs the acts. This could embolden some of the lunatic fringe of the Tea Party – every political movement has a lunatic fringe. Be aware, be prepared.
Apropos de Levin’s pushing the notion that his act has or will get some political traction (with Olberman and Maddow as boosters):
“MSNBC Declines Broadly Among Adults 25-54″ -

Thanks god that types like Jason Levin will rally enormous masses of independents around liberal causes -
Jason Levin provided cover actually. Now that the cat’s out of bag, any kook that gets carried away at a Tea Party rally can now be traced back to him. Any N-word, any bone-in-nose pictures of Obama, any spitting can all be laid to rest on his shoulders. We should be grateful.
Wow, imagine my surprise — I thought progressives were supposed to be against this sort of thing.
The only thing progressives are against, is losing.
Gay rights! Ooops, I forgot this -
Jason buddy, since you seem pretty selfdestructive in political matters here is some advice for you -
1) Don’t insert single, irritating and with minuscule constituency issue like gay rights in a campaign that aims to lure back in the folds independent defectors – your slogan makes your site essentially a “gay rights” site, which has no appeal for those you dream to get back -
2) here comes #1, expanded: don’t insert single, irritating and with minuscule constituency issues in a campaign that has to sail through hard times – people see this as frivolous and they’ll stampede over you –
3) and this entry, Jason, should add more awakening weight to #1 & #2: fresh news: the anti prop 8 crew in California have failed to get the 600.000 signatures to get their act on the ballot – LA Times is in deep despondency -
See you in November -
Ignorant lout. But thanks. Now everyone will know who’s actually shouting out racial epithets. Let him be our “useful idiot” for a change.
Tea partiers need their own signs, which should be positioned on one side or the other of one of these infiltrators:
“This message brought to you by crasththeteaparty.org” with red arrows pointing to the offending sign. Then take pictures, plenty of them.
It’s not enough to identify them as dem/SEIU/ACORN/Moveon.org operatives after the fact. Discredit them ON THE DAY OF THE PROTEST!!!
BTW, I wonder if the crash the tea party idiots have figured out that when they hold up these offensive signs, they’ll be forever identified as racists? Or can they think that far ahead?
Brilliant elaine! I’m printing my signs with the big red arrows right now. I’ll be handing them out at every tea party I go to.
To those with access to his Twitter feed or details of his other posting activites: Do the timestamps indicate that he has been addressing his little hobby during his required working hours?
If so, he is misappropriating government funds – - I believe it is unlawful for public employees to engage in political activities during their paid working hours.
Someone should probably point this out to his school district’s administration – - preferably, though filing of a lawsuit.
Levin hasn’t erred in “going viral” because now the Tea Party folks will be looking askance at their members who parade around with poorly spelled ridiculous and/or racist signs and making “citizens arrests”. Maybe the organization will clean itself up. Apparently it’s only okay to use deception against another organization if you’re conservative conspirators like Breitbart and O’Keefe. Those on the left are enjoying the heck out of watching you all implode.
Bruce (see comment #5) seems to be trolling his “crash” tactics on this site a bit prematurely. Hey, duffus, the Tax Day Rallies aren’t until Thursday! His phony list of “constitutional admendments” is full of obvious mispellings and racist and hateful rantings I have never heard uttered by any genuine Tea Party Patriot.
People like Levin are so clueless. It is not all that surprising that they are because they live in that liberal/lefitst/progressive/Democrat “reality-based community and by being “reality-based” means that they have about as firm a grasp on reality as someone on acid.
The tactics they are using are all backfiring on them and are only serving to build a fire that, in the end, will be the funeral pyre for all their institutions, their agendas, their policies, the businesses that they control and if they are not very careful themselves.
TEA PARTIERS! Here’s what to do:
1) Take Mr. Levin’s lovely web page and turn it into large signs. Have a dozen or so of these signs at each Tea Party event.
2) Carrying the signs, mingle with any suspected “plants.”
3) Smile, have fun. Act like you’re actually a crasher, and thought this would promote your cause. Play with their minds.
4) Let the sycophant media try to figure it all out.
Tea Party organizers should have at least one sign on hand that points to an astroturfer.
On one side it’s copy, then arrow (to the right).
On the other, it’s arrow (to the left), then copy. That way, you can stand either to the left or right of an astroturfer and call them out. Just flip the sign so that it points at the astroturfer. (It will point at them on the front and the back.)
On the sign, something to the effect of: “Obama plant,” “Paid for by SEIU,” “Astroturfer,” or “Soros’ Lackey.”
Turn the tables. What can they say? You can’t use dirty tactics? Just get a buddy with a video camera and stay on them until they leave.
Test it before you show up.
“The man of integrity walks securely, but he who takes crooked paths will be found out.” -Proverbs 10:9
All I can say is film them, identify them and prosecute them! Expose every single one and call them out!
Does Levin think he will have a job now that he is exposed? Teaching children!! Outrageous.
Something tells me the parents of these middle school kids may have a surprise in store for him.
They just might go to the school board and demand he is fired. This guy exudes creepy.
Guess you’re not too good at Tech Levin. Tried to run but you couldn’t hide. You’ve been
found out.
Picket his school so parents know what he is up to.
And with the clowns holding the racist signs…find out who they are and post their names and photos on the web. Contact their employers and their schools about their “racist” ideology.
Given where he lives, I wouldn’t be surprised if the majority of the parents in his school district would support him in these efforts.
Unfortunately, you are correct.
it’s all anarchists and hipsters, it’s where they go once everyone in their home state realize they suck at life.
I thought dissent was the highest form of patriotism? That’s all the tea partiers are doing, right? We should be lauding them for their patriotism and for exercising their rights (which our military men and women have sacrificed so much to keep for us) not trying to quash them.
Strange how libs want to limit “rights” (ie – limit “hateful” speech, limit the number of abortion, one of their favorite rights, etc.).
I am not afraid. I will stand up for this country for the sake of my children and yours.
ladies and gentlemen I present to you our public school teachers….yeah!
You have no data to support this comment, and making it will alienate potential allies, who are in classrooms right now.
As Saul Alinsky said, “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it”. Public school teachers are not your target.
What this moron does not realize is that by infiltrating the Tea Parties he is exposing liberals to the truth and we all know that once a liberal LISTENS to the truth, they have no recourse but to Join Us…
You can lead a liberal to truth, but you can’t make him think.
The man is as dumb as a rock, and he calls other people “morons”.
The ape has just handed the Tea party a ready made excuse for any legitimate odd balls they may have. Anything goes wrong, blame Levin and the insane left.
In any case, you have to be stupid to put the kind of faith in government that Levin has. He probably can’t wait for the VAT to kick in.
That’s awfully disrespectful to most rocks!
What a disgusting weasel. Free speech is only supposed to be enjoyed by some and the others must be crushed. The scariest part: he’s a school teacher. Someone so lacking in character, honesty and a sense of fairness does not belong in a classroom.
I think there are still some cabinet positions in the Obama administration, say minister of truth, that J. Levin is probably now being considered for. Too bad he’s not at least half black (since barry will appoint only minorities to the SCOTUS, leftist a must, competence optional), or he’d be a supreme court shoo-in.
Aisling, If you have ever been to a tea party protest you would know that they do not need cleaning up, but people like you just know what you want to know despite the facts. Yes, it is o.k. to use deception to catch scoundrels committing illegal acts. Posing as tea partiers to discredit them is not the same thing as what O’Keefe did. You know that. I know you are not that stupid.
In these cases of harmful acts, it seems to me the wisest defensive strategy would be for nearby Tea Party patriots to quickly engage any offender in a stern on-camera lecture about civility and Tea Party principles of non-violence and principled civility.
Even if it’s one of your own, a library of such tapes would be great for the kind of image we must strengthen and maintain. And the prospect of being subject to such a recorded lesson in civility would quickly become a deterrant to such behavior and a great teaching tool for our partiots. It would also be an effective PR tool to use with media, both friend and foe.
Opponents who tried to set you up wouldn’t dare use the whole recording of the incident. And if they only used part of it, we could use the whole thing, recorded by friends, to discredit their claims as well as any dishonest tactics of planted slurs.
In fact, this technique would be a smart response to slurs or image-damaging behavior by ANYBODY on either side of the issue. It wouldn’t take long for the word to get around that plants were more damaging than useful … and we might even win grudging respect from hostile media folks. And they would soon become wary of using selected edits against us.
Illegitimis non carborundum …
It looks like OFA is passively promoting this. Seems like that’s kind of… you know… ILLEGAL, no? Oh wait, this is Axelrod we’re talking about. Nevermind.
And in the irony of ironies, this post is listed under “Obama Supporters for Positive Dialogue”. LOL!!
Here’s the only comment on it so far:
Also, has anyone looked at the legal ramifications of this Levin guy’s choice to use someone else’s phone number in the current domain registration?
I’m thinking that, unless they gave their express permission for him to use their phone number, Norman and Sheila Lamonoff probably have a few choice words for Mr. Levin. Via their attorney.
WHO WE ARE: A nationwide network of Democrats, Republicans, and Independents who are all sick and tired of that loose affiliation of racists, homophobes, and morons; who constitute the fake grass-roots movement which calls itself “The Tea Party.”
If the TEA Party movement is a fake grass-roots movement then why are they so upset?
I would have never guessed you could get so many “racist, homophobes, morons” to show up at the same place at the same time!
The last DNC convention?
The problem is very, very few of the people in the Tea Party movement are racist, homophobe, etc but those are the ones that make the headlines so that’s what we see. Are all Islamic people terrorists? Of course not but the ones that are blow themselves and others to bits and pieces and make the headlines. You are going about this the wrong way and are doing a huge disservice to your self and your ideas. You do realize there are black in the Tea Party don’t you? Are they also racists?
I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that the website developer was part of the Tea Party Movement who is seeking public sympathy bu attacking his beloved organization and blaming it on left-wing radicals.
Have you checked the guys personal history? He’s full moonbat, all the way.
Gotta love the depth of the angry childish Liberal intellect.
What a typical lefty moron. Their immature need for recognition is apparent. Here’s a prediction… what will happen is what ALWAYS happens. A few morons will attempt to disrupt the proceedings…. some will probably gain an “interview” with some other moronic lefty reporter so they can portray it as a “crazy, racist teaparty person”. Then, the actual affiliation of the people involved will come out. This “brilliant plan” will gain widespread awareness and the reporter’s willing participation will be uncovered. The TeaParty will then gain even more participants and the ever-shrinking looney left will shrink even more and become even more of a pariah in mainstream society.
CC
Such Liberals shouldn’t be permitted anywhere near children. I suggest a movement to have this radical Lib nutjob fired from his teaching job. Find and contact his employer…
There is no need to exaggerate, or encourage paranoia. Simply showing up to a tea party to promote our own views should be enough to prove they are a misguided minority. It is enough to logically debate the teabaggers, on film. Given the rampant anger, assaults, and acceptance of racism, provocations are surly unnecessary.
If these incidents are as rampant as you claim, then surely you will have no trouble producing copious examples for all of them.
If not, just go ahead and admit that you don’t think for yourself, rather you parrot what the DNC tells you for this week.
An effort such as “Crash the Tea Party Movement” would not get more than an inch off the ground if there was not an already existing presumption that the mainstream media types will look kindly on it. You can bet that any reporters who deign to cover Tea Party functions will be tipped off in advance to look for the disinformation spread by this group and feature it prominently in any resulting story. Also, it does not surprise me a bit that this dork is a school teacher. Another vote here for school vouchers and charter schools.
Jason Levin ..what school does he teach at????
who does he associate with?
Where are these people/???
try quitting your bickering and put up a united front. the trolls will always be around..like Levin…they are here on this site and many others..ignore them..
I am simply amazed by the vitriol people on the left display when a perceived threat happens to come along. Such is the case with the Tea Party movement. As they gain momentum, all those flaming liberals, Trotskyites, Leninists, Maoists, or what ever title they desire to be called by, go into max vitriol overdrive. They just end up looking like a gaggle of crass idiots.
@MarkTheGreat, that is a wonderful phrase (you can lead a liberal to water, but you can’t make him think). Mind if I borrow it?
Go ahead, I forget who I first stole it from.
“I forget who I first stole it from.”
Me. Only it goes like this: “You can lead a wh*re to water, but you can’t make her think.”
You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t lead a horticulture… Dorothy Parker, former Algonquin Roundtable denizen.
“Never underestimate the power of stupid people in a large crowd” as they are usually referred to as STUPID LIBERALS.
Yup, just what I suspected this loon from the great loony haven of the Northwest is even more ignorant then Pelosi. November can’t get here soon enough.
Other sites are reporting that Jason Levin is a teacher in the Beaverton (OR) School District.
Looking at his LinkedIn profile and his Twitter feed (his LinkedIn profile mentions the “CrashtheTeaParty” Twitter feed), we see that he currently is a technology teacher in the Philadelphia School District. However, it happens that there is a Jason Levin listed as a Media Lab teacher in Conestoga Middle School, Beaverton OR, and his curriculum description contains biographical information (high school, undergrad college, residences) that matches the LinkedIn profile.
So the reports on other sites are probably correct – the organizer of the CrashTheTeaParty movement is probably a Media Lab teacher at Conestoga Middle School in Beaverton.
He’s the guy who runs the projector?
Nothing more than a typical socialist that fears the people.
Meet Jason Levin: an angry desperate white man.
Levin is just another bed wetting narcissistic petulant child who has an axe to grind because the “private sector” just does not realize his greatness. He’s the tough guy who flips you off from the safety of his vehicle only to cower and soil himself when you walk up and tap on his window at the next light.
As we saw in the filming of the black congressmen coming up the steps for the final healthcare vote and with the egging of the Tea Party Express bus and subsequent denial of the act by union thugs, it’s imparative that all attendees at tea party events keep those cell phone cameras rolling to disprove fake attacks and identify who the real troulemakes are as well as to expose their motivations. After a bunch of these guys get caught, the tactic will lose it’s effectiveness.
He sounds like the American Richard Warman, who has pursued a vendetta against Ezra Levant because Ezra doesn’t mince words.
Late breaking news: Rush just carried the Levin CCTP story. [Tuesday, about 11:15 PST]
Honestly, they let this guy teach school? I’d be afraid to have any child within 100 feet of him.
People, bring whistles to draw attention to party crashers.
The crashtheteaparty.org website exists for one reason and one reason only: to stifle the voices of those with whom they disagree and to render mute a rising chorus of dissatisfaction with a government that is acting in ways that deeply distress a growing majority.
Oh, the humanity! The conspiracy! They’re out to get us!
Try this on for size:
It exists because a conspiracy theorist is bored.
#68 CapedConservative — Then, the actual affiliation of the people involved will come out.
Heh. Comedy gold, either way.
#77 phssthpok — Other sites are reporting that Jason Levin is a teacher in the Beaverton (OR) School District.
And the point is… what? Are teachers exempted from freedom of speech?
He intends not to counterprotest, but intentionally to spread false information about the Tea Partiers.
As this is a free country, it is not against the law, so he won’t be jailed for it.
However, I think that the Tea Partiers would have the basis of a slander suit against him. And many school districts have morals clauses in their faculty contracts; I would think that role-modeling slanderous speech would warrant an investigation.
The liberal group is amazing. I was on Huffington Post and couldn’t believe the filth and hate expounded by them. They banned me quickly to keep any of my ideas from ruining their great time. I’ve seen plenty of liberals on PJM, they never get treated like that. We let them in and then argue with them. They won’t let you in at all. Isn’t that censorship and a violation of free speech. Now I read how these idiots intend to sabotage the Tea Party movement. They will absolutely show up, that’s their style. Watch how the MSM reports this and how complicit they are.
My advice is to show up with thermoses of hot tea and accidently spill some of it on these goons. Make sure your spill is totally accidental. Example: tripping on a blade of grass, it happens. They are in terror of us folks and will do anything to advance their agenda. They robbed America of an honest Presidential election and they intend to do it again with this up coming election. Here in California Boxer is running scared.
Show up and bring your tea, its going to be fun.
I am not arguing with respect to your general points but the way many folks in the USA use the word liberal is just plain wrong and it is not an unimportant technical issue, in that because of this confusion,folks like Barrack Hussein Obama can claim to be espousing liberal values, when for example no serious liberal would bow down to a monarch of a state like Saudi Arabia and by turning the word liberal in to a vacuous term of abuse, it gives folks on the right an opening to attack folks on the left in a way which does not cause the folks on the right to be held accountable for their poor standards, as for example when the George W Bush administration issued a memo to State Dept representatives prohibiting them from using the word Islamofascism.
Adrian,
Am I to take it that you are a liberal that’s fed up with Obama? If you are sir, I have to take my hat off to you. So what should we call Obama and his ilk?
It’s censorship, but it isn’t a violation of free speech. Private groups have no obligation to protect free speech rights.
Mark,
You see that’s what Pelossi and her group are trying to do to radio, that is censor the Rush Limbaug types. If it holds for radio, it should hold for internet. The point being they sing the song they want as long as it suits them. Don’t try for real equality, that would be upholding the constitution. After all, who needs the constitution?
No comparison. If the company that owned the radio that carried Rush’s signal were to tell him that he couldn’t talk about the Tea Parties, otherwise they would drop his program, they would be entirely in their rights.
If the govt were to order the station to drop Rush because he talked about Tea Parties, that would be a violation of the 1st ammd. The difference is govt. The owner has complete control over his property. The 1st ammd is a limitation on what govt can do, it has no bearing on private individuals.
I don’t know anything about the ” Crash the Tea Party ” operation but there are some really odd things going on in the Tea Party movement, in that Debra Medina presents herself as a conservative traditionalist and yet the Facebook page
Debra Medina
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Debra-Medina/95669721909?ref=ts
featherbeds persons who subscribe to this sort of stuff,
” If I were the president, I could stop terrorist attacks against the United States in a few days. Permanently. I would first apologize — very publicly and very sincerely — to all the widows and the orphans, the impoverished and the tortured, and all the many millions of other victims of American imperialism. I would then announce that America’s global interventions — including the awful bombings — have come to an end. And I would inform Israel that it is no longer the 51st state of the union but – oddly enough – a foreign country. I would then reduce the military budget by at least 90% and use the savings to pay reparations to the victims and repair the damage from the many American bombings and invasions. There would be more than enough money. Do you know what one year of the US military budget is equal to? One year. It’s equal to more than $20,000 per hour for every hour since Jesus Christ was born. That’s what I’d do on my first three days in the White House. On the fourth day, I’d be assassinated. ”
William Blum
and hounds one, if one subscribes to a centrist or right of center conservative position, somewhat on the lines of President Reagan or Senator Barry Goldwater and if they can’t beat you in argument on the issues, a Dr Hannibal Lecter type character attempts to try to tear you apart psychologically and if that doesn’t work, just coincidentally one gets death threats via Facebook private mail. And then they start a campaign to have you suspended / permabanned from Facebook. Conveniently for these characters, when folks get suspended from Facebook all their critical postings of that filthy Facebook page disappear from that filthy Facebook page.
How To Oust Tea Party Infiltrators & Provocateurs instigating violence:
Consider how law-abiding protest groups in other countries have uncovered and distance themselves from Infiltrators and Provocateurs instigating violence:
In Belfast, Northern Ireland between 1980-1995 Irish Catholics were inundated with British provocateurs whose mission was to marginalize the efforts of lawful Citizens at protests. Provocateurs that joined with lawful groups appeared to be like everyone else, supporting the cause; and would attend meetings to spy on group members, then offer ideas to cause members to break the law; other provocateurs attending meetings would appear law-abiding sometimes offering constructive ideas; then suddenly one day without warning instigate violence at a protest, attacking the opposition at a protest with words, their signs or e.g., throwing rocks. Lawful protest groups to counter the unexpected violence caused by Provocateurs in their midst or those in opposition groups at a protest, came up with the following counter measures: Law-abiding Protest groups appointed “Stewards” that monitored not only their own members but demonstrators in opposition groups at protests: ACTION TAKEN: When it became apparent at a Protest, someone in their own group was instigating violence or causing confrontation with the opposition at a Protest, “Stewards” would blow a low pitch whistle; then immediately all group members not involved in violence or confrontation would quickly distance themselves many feet from the lawbreakers forming a tight circle, sometimes holding hands, to block out the “instigator” or “Provocateur” from returning or entering their law-abiding circled of Citizens. Meanwhile “Stewards” as a matter of operation always carry a video camera to tape for the record, that their law-abiding members immediately distanced themselves from an “instigator” that caused confrontation or violence. That videotape might be needed later to prove who was and who wasn’t involved in violence. A copy of that videotape might also be provided to the press to expose a provocateur or to marginalize political opposition that employed the provocateur.
Keep in mind, that a Provocateur in a group of law-abiding protesters might individually start a fight against a fellow group protester or with another protester also a Provocateur—from either side—to cause arrests; in which case the “steward” would blow the whistle for law-abiding group members to immediately separate, distancing themselves from all confrontational persons in the manner described above. Subsequently a protest group will have to sort out whether a violent instigator in their group, is a Provocateur.
Who do you believe these ” British provocateurs ” were working on behalf and what was their objective, as it is not easily apparent to me, since it was in the interest of the British government to dampen conflict down, not wind it up ?
While Jason is in Portland (which is almost a moonbat refuge), I expect to see some of actions he is promoting up here in Seattle. This Thursday, from 5:30-7:30pm, there will be a tea party demonstration in the middle of Seattle. I intend on attending with my trusty HD video camera (complete with 10X optical zoom) looking for both great speeches, great attendees, counter-protestors, and these false-flag operatives.
Seattle is full of violent, hateful leftists so I expect to see Jason’s co-religionists out in full force.
Hopefully I won’t get my legs broken as occurred in New Orleans…
How hilarious. For months, the Republican party has been co-opting the tea partiers, and nary a peep from this website.
hie thee to a dictionary, and learn the difference between the words co-op and infiltrate.
oscar le grouche is a prime example of somebody trying infiltrate and confuse. Guess what little o we’re all on to you.
My complaint to the Federal Trade Commission (www.ftc.gov): Jason Levin’s website, http://www.crashtheteaparty.org, stated clear intent to conspire to perpetrate fraud and fraudulent acts against people who are expressing their first amendment rights. He is conspiring to stir up hatred and misinformation against others merely because they hold a more conservative perspective than he does. This is the kind of activity that should be monitored for its propensity to incite violence and fraud against law-abiding citizens.
Sounds more like something the FBI should be looking into.
Maybe you should be looking at the RNC’s fundraising guidelines. And quit whining like a little girl.
Actually, I think we all Jason Levin a big round of thanks.
From now on if anybody gets out of hand at a rally, and it’s bound to happen in a cast of thousands sometime, I’ll simply point the accusers and police back to members of Jason’s Klan with Jason’s personal address and place of employment written on a business card. Racial slurs – Jason; Homophobic comments – Jason; Property damage – Jason; litter – Jason; Body Funk and bad breath – Jason.
I mean, if you could caricature a leftist goober with an attitude, a 36 year old appearing as never kissed a girl, what better example than the picture provided above? That’s correctional center quality photography. All it needs is a date stamp with a list of egregious charges.
I’d enlarge that picture into a 36″ poster with “I voted for Hope & Change” motto, Jason’s mug and manifesto right below it. That alone is worth a million “Hell No” votes against Obama. Place yourself right in front of the CNN camera, proudly waving your poster.
As soon as I saw that site my J-dar was going off the charts. Thanks for the confirmation.
Is Mr. Levin the new J. Egar Hoover and President Obama the new Nixon?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTELPRO
COINTELPRO began in 1956 and was designed to “increase factionalism, cause disruption and win defections” inside the Communist Party U.S.A. (CPUSA). However, the program was soon enlarged to include disruption of the Socialist Workers Party (1961), the Ku Klux Klan (1964), the Nation of Islam, the Black Panther Party (1967), and the entire New Left socio-political movement, which included antiwar, community, and religious groups (1968). A later investigation by the Senate’s Church Committee (see below) stated that “COINTELPRO began in 1956, in part because of frustration with Supreme Court rulings limiting the Government’s power to proceed overtly against dissident groups…”[8] Congress and several court cases[9][dead link] later[when?]concluded that the COINTELPRO operations against communist and socialist groups exceeded statutory limits on FBI activity and violated constitutional guarantees of freedom of speech and association.
In the Final Report of the Select Committee, COINTELPRO was castigated in no uncertain terms:
Many of the techniques used would be intolerable in a democratic society even if all of the targets had been involved in violent activity, but COINTELPRO went far beyond that…the Bureau conducted a sophisticated vigilante operation aimed squarely at preventing the exercise of First Amendment rights of speech and association, on the theory that preventing the growth of dangerous groups and the propagation of dangerous ideas would protect the national security and deter violence.[8]
When anyone, esp a “teacher of children”, is out trying to get people to do something that is wrong…wrong in it’s “”dishonesty, then they should be called to task
…and to preempt your question…it is not their free speech rights to lie about what is going on. either side should be able to protest..but not with lies and trying to cause trouble in the name of the others.
unfortunately there is a great chance of violence because of the dishonesty. as many have said, avoid the violence and take pictures, everyone has people that know them.
the FBI is probably patting Jason on the back..good boy!!..and giving him a pass..
Two things:
First, Megyn Kelly had it right when she pointed out that IF the “Tea Party” was so overrun with racist, ignorant, redneck, fringe types, this “Crash” movement wouldn’t be needed for “planting” fakes.
Second, I actually think it’s to the advantage of the movement to have all this propaganda out there. It just means, we won’t be taken seriously, they will dismiss us more, and we will sneak up on them and bite them in the butts!
A teacher?
I know I wouldn’t want a liar taching MY kids.
I wonder if he wears a decoder ring.
I wonder if he dresses up like a pimp or a telephone repair man? Oh, I forgot, that’s heroic.
You have no standing.
you really don’t understand the difference between going in disguise as a pimp to trick an organization to reveal their scummy nature, and going in disguise as the very people you hate to trick other people into thinking the people you hate are racist and stupid even when they aren’t?
Does anyone now have any doubt that it would be in conservatives’ best interest to divide the country and get away from these people? They simply do not have the mental ability to understand objective thought and reason. They reject the greatest, highest-minded gifts of Western civilization because their brains simply are unable to grasp these concepts. Note: unABLE, not unwilling.
Which is not to say that they are stupid. Someone can be extremely intelligent in memorization, mathematics, etc., but blind to true objective thought, strategic thinking skills, and other abilities. Monkeys can be blazing fast at object identification and counting–faster than humans in some cases. But ask them to divide six by two, and nothing happens. Their brains simply are not constructed to perform this sort of task.
And with humans: what we cannot understand, we seek to destroy.
God – I hope he’s no relation to The Great One, Mark Levin. The resemblance is close enought to give me pause.

[For a light hearted take on our present peril]
This guy is clearly a conservative plant made necessary by the right’s inability to control the bigoted outbursts of the Tea Baggers. They need cover for the inevitable racism from the right. This is how they think they can do it. Wrong again.
Skeeziks, you and your party are historically the greatest bunch of racist this country has ever known. After a Republican ended slavery, the Democratic Party had no problem co-opting the racists in The South for almost 100 years. You were the ones who defended the Jim Crow laws, segregation and lynchings.
Then when you found it was no longer politically feasible to maintain your own inhumanity, you cynically bought off the blacks with government largess in order to get their votes.
I guess you had no idea about any of this. The Left has their own history books.
True!! how better to degrade a population than to have them dependent…welfare, affirmative action,obama…
Wait, so your theory is that the Right planted a person onto the Left who planned to plant people in the Right to discredit them?
That’s almost more contrived than a 9/11 Truther theory. Especially when you consider that the subject in question was on the Left long before the Tea Party movement came into existence.
What is it about liberals, and their eagerness to believe any lie that supports their bigotries? It doesn’t matter that nobody can demonstrate that these “outbursts” ever occurred, the liberals will keep declaring that they did.
The reaction of the lame stream media and many liberals is to be expected. They have lived in their protective bubble for so long that when it is in danger of being popped they panic. The Tea Party movement has them terrified. Main stream Americans are finally waking up to the dangers of the Liberal/progressive agenda and don’t like it at all.
Liberals are frantic to re-inflate their damaged bubble. They will not be successful. Too many Americans can now get information that has not been screened by the LSM. The lies told by the present administration are exposed quickly and publically. When the public becomes aware of the back room deals, corruption, lies and payoffs they now react.
Our reaction scares the living fecal matter out of the liberal/progressives. It will be interesting to see just how crazy they get after the 2010 elections when a significant portion of them are dragged kicking and screaming out of Washington
Flash! See my latest post with Jason Levin’s Manifesto
http://tonsofwash.wordpress.com/2010/04/13/flash-jason-levins-manifesto/
after seeing how people acted at the Harry Reid, Searchlight, NV meeting…eggs..misleading buses etc.. I have little doubt that t
Levin’s writings are troublesome.
How will you be able to identify the “infiltrators”?
Can you assume that every racist or Nazi-type sign is carried by an “infiltrator”?
If the actual Tea Party supporters throw out every rabble-rousing or apparently racist or Nazi-type person, wouldn’t that be better for the Tea Party?
RCM, you’re absolutely right. Whether they’re infiltrators or misguided, they’re not friends of the Tea Party movement — take the pictures, send them in to tpcrashers@pjtv.com.
Breaking News: L.Col. Lakin is being court martialed; that’s how the American political prisoners and the American Gulag in the Obama era starts.
absolutely unbelievable!
We knew someone would be thrown to the dogs for appeasement.
Sounds like Limbaugh when he used Operations Chaos to disrupt the democrats. Where was the outrage when conservatives were encouraged to register as democrats?
Registering as anything you want and voting are different from what these thugs are about to do, you troll bam bam.
Is this parody? Registering and voting as a Democrat in order to affect the outcome of that election is morally equivalent to acting racist in a crowd in order to make that crowd seem racist?
Only trolls would not be able to understand the difference,troll.
I don’t know if this was put out there already, but this libiot just provided the Tea Party w/ scapegoats. Any moron, whether a plant or just the odd, actual racisit dip-sh*t, can now be labelled as one of these morons. And yeah, RCM, they’ll all be PNG’d quickly.
Also, something the author touched on, it’s clear that these dopes are out of tricks, the charges of racism haven’t panned out, and now they have to make up sh*t!
Morally, intellectually and responsibility devoid.
the funny part is…you guys are all going to be eyeing each other suspiciously! isn’t that brilliant? who’s real and who’s fake? who knows?
brilliant!
It will be very easy. The provocateur will be carrying a racist sign, yelling racist invective, or inciting violence. That way we will know immediately that they are a Democrat, since that is Dem behavior.
Pretty easy to separate the Democrats from the Republicans.
Remember Protest Warrior and how the left demonized them, assaulted them (sometimes violently) and claimed they were organized by the CIA because of some of their protest-crashing successes.
This guy is clearly of that mindset and there’s supposedly even evidence that Levin is behind organizing coffee party meetups online…and we know how well they turned out. lmao
Just keep your eyes open on Tax Day but prepare for a good laugh at Jason Levin and his crashers the day after.
Make a flyer with all the info from his website. Whenever you see someone with a racist sign or being a jerk is some way, in addition to filming the person, hand out the flyer to everyone around, especially media, explaining who these people are, and asking them to not take it for granted that this person is actually with the teaparty. In fact, give the flyers to the media anyway – it’s an interesting story and what these people are trying to do should be publicized.
BTW can we call this guy’s effort an example of Cloward-Piven?
I dont’ think so. I think CP is more to do with the demands on government by the population…orchestrated financial crisis??
“…Can you assume that every racist or Nazi-type sign is carried by an “infiltrator”?
If the actual Tea Party supporters throw out every rabble-rousing or apparently racist or Nazi-type person, wouldn’t that be better for the Tea Party?…”
For the purpose of representing the teaparty, a racist or conspiracy-monger or birther is unwelcome regardless what their motivation is. They should not be treated any differently, whether they are there sincerely or whether they are trying to discredit the movement. You don’t even have to distinguish or ask. Tell them to lose the racist/birther/whatever sign or flyer, or leave. if they don’t leave, do whatever you were planning to do with crashers. If they say, “No, no, I’m not a crasher, I’m part of the movement!” Tell them to get rid of whatever racist thing they are doing, or leave. IT DOESN’T MATTER. We have standards, they have to meet them, or leave.
And of course video the entire confrontation, whoever it is.
Liberals like Jason Levin are TERRIFIED so they do desperately stupid things. Like making up a battle plan and then announcing it to the world! LOL!!
This clown is really scared of clear minded Americans. F him.
BTW, any movement that is so easily discreditable isn’t a movement worth following. If one assclown like this can discredit ALL Tea Partiers, then it wasn’t anything to begin with.
There’s a difference between trying and succeeding. Look it up.
I don’t think one person can discredit the TEA Party .
However, one person and a lot of other people up to distruction of democracy can make people unhappy due to the reporting of the MSM>
The MSM will take anything these people do, like calling names, racists signs etc..and run with it. The MSM will..”not care” if the people are TEA party, liberals, thugs. Misinformation is the game of the day with them.
This is one of the reasons everyone is saying take your camera, identify anyone causing trouble and advertise them to the world.
….The internet and twitter etc are the best and the worse things to happen to our world with people like Levin around.
Levin alone..no But people up to no good will rally behind anyone up to and promoting no good.
Sometimes there just are not anymore words. The Tea Partiers have tried to peacefully petition their government through words and protest. Thugs like Levin want to silence them. When you take away the right to be heard, there is nothing left but action. Levin needs a beat down.
I am a believer in democracy. Both sides need to be heard.
One side cannot stifle the other with untruths and radical behavior as we are seeing by liberals against the conservatives in general. the right does not go to rallies and lie about the speakers, call them names etc, the left does.
We as a nation can no longer stand and allow our nation to be torn apart by liberals/socialists/communists.
We cannot keep taking from the middle class and giving to those that do not contribute.
We can no longer give jobs to unqualified people because they meet the ethnic quota…they need to meet a knowledge quota.
Pelosi wants to give insurance to artists, writers etc so they can do their “thing’ and not hold a “real” job…so typical of what is going on.
Democracy is one thing, lies and misrepresentation are another.
Maybe the administration would like to see a civil war so they could march in with martial law..
I am not a democrat or republican. I do see the need for equity.
And the beat-down comment of Dave M. now in S. Korea clearly shows that teabaggers are inferior, duplicitous beings who lie about the original intentions of the movement (Peaceful? Was the original tea party peaceful? Nice work, patriot), and then, in the face of opposition (no matter how stupid) support violence as is expected from their general undereducated and overprivileged sector of society. However, Jason is, indeed, also an idiot, because now he has allowed this vile, hateful, racist movement to speak their true hearts and minds, knowing that they can conveniently blame a counterprotest for the words and actions that bring them catharsis.
The words of one, reveal the heart of all?
Interesting, once again, this liberal demonstrates how most liberals refuse to follow the standards they set for everyone else.
Imagine what would happen if I were to attack all blacks, because one black robbed a convenience store.
There’s an insidious form of cretin progressive, actually a rehash of days gone bye, as LALA (appropriately named from its higher education) so aptly demonstrates for us.
The type of gutless, cowardly pagan that once upon a time kissed King George’s ring, who now kisses Henry Waxman’s a** for favors. This is the legacy of “progressives”, those who would called our Forefathers vile, racist, hatemongers – devils and war criminals all.
They caught the ships a few years after the fighting was over, the fields were planted and the danger had passed.
Helpless, whiny, blind, and distraught, but with the uncanny ability to multiply – like moles in a newly sodded yard. And since our humane nature prevents us from grabbing the shovel or hammer while waiting over the many holes, my suggestion would be to simply grab the hose and let it run overnight.
Written like the smug, arrogant, pretentious, and mindless liberal drone you are. Well done!
When you get right down to it though, most of what you wrote applies to you, doesn’t it?
Many native American tribes used to measure their tribes worth by the strength and cunning of their adversary.
I sure am glad that Jason Levin isn’t our only adversary…
This kind of behavior has been expected. If you have taken a vow to preserve and protect The Constitution understands what the Tea Party movement really is. You can never change that. Remember the Marches in the 60s. They were all about We Shall Overcome. You will never defeat an Idea.
As I’ve said at PJM and elsewhere:”SCRATCH A LIBERAL,FIND A STALINIST!”
#91 OSCAR LE DOUCHE(bag)leaked:”The republican party has been coopting the tea party with nary a peep from this website.” It’s the other way around douchebag;meanwhile, the Democrat paert has been coopted by the CPUSA,and nary a peep from your fellow douchebags!
Hey, of guello, any word on Jennings? I sure could use a dash of your insight and prediction.
No need to start an effort to destroy the tea party movement. It’s likely to splinter into a number of competing organizations without an outside effort to bring it down. There are plenty of rational people in the movement, but they’re unlikely to satisfy the more rabid anti-government types who wound be more than happy to slap on some camouflage and get involved a little paramilitary action. Also, too many people who fall for the red-baiting are attaching themselves to the movement. They’re more than happy to fall for the “Obama is a socialist, communist, Marxist” rhetoric. There isn’t a self-respecting socialist alive who would support a president who wants to require people to buy policies from for-profit insurance companies. Unfortunately for its sincere supporters, the tea party movement is attracting just about every wing-nut from the far-right side of the lunatic fringe. That will be enough to be its undoing.
he is my media lab teacher at conestoga middle school. Our parents got called because of this, its bringing our school unwanted attention.

Fox News has just reported that he has been suspended (I did not see whether he is being paid or not)!

How did this dipstick manage to get the movement named “Tea Baggers” in the first place? I’m so glad that is fixed now. Now it is the “Tea Party” movement and everyone has forgotten about “Teabagging.”
Hooray for your site! Now no one can find out about how Harry Reid felt me up and down at one of his rallies! Hooray!
F the liberal media
