Many have long suspected that something sketchy occurs with many Leftist protests. Nate Friedman investigates:

I am releasing my full documentary on the paid UN protests in NYC. They were not grassroots.

In it I confront the leader of the paid protests and reveal that him and his 2 associates in the video earn a combined salary of over $250,000 a year to protest.

The leader has taken multiple trips to Cuba, he’s a self proclaimed communist, and he organized the protests on October 8 of 2023 while innocents were still being slaughtered. He gets paid through Singham’s justice and education fund for over $90,000 a year but he shows up as earning $0 on the 990’s for the non profit that he ACTUALLY works at as an executive director which is at the people’s forum. How many more protestors are paid like this?

They refuse to explain why they don’t protest for Sudan, Ukraine, or Nigeria. They refuse to acknowledge that after Singham was launched a grand jury investigation into him that the protests slowed down significantly, going from almost once a week to close to once a month.

Another protester threatens to knock out my bodyguard and then "get me." He says it right into the camera, and he is the same guy who was at Khamenei’s vigil in Washington Square Park and at a lot of the BLM protests.

In the video you’ll hear Mohammad Hossain, a professional protestor say he wishes he could be the leader of Hamas. Mohammad shakes his head "no" at whether or not he is a US citizen. Mohammad calls for Shara in NYC and for all the women to be put in burqas in NYC, when I asked his female co protestors if they want to be in a burqa, they said no. Red green alliance fully at play.

Throughout this video you will get a clear sense of the ideological war taking place in NYC streets, and you’ll see how a protest like this prevents people from getting life saving care. I spoke to a paramedic who got stuck when the protest came and had to leave his ambulance there. When I asked him what if someone in that building has a heart attack, what happens… he said "good luck."

The best way to support my reporting is to subscribe to my X, and there is also a link to support my security fund in the comments.
