Town Hall Hikacks

Goess who was funding town hall protests:
The Beacon named the New York Times, the Washington Post, and CBS News as outlets who pointed to McCormick’s town hall and claimed it shows growing bipartisan backlash against DOGE. The article said CBS featured a quote from an organizer of the protest, describing her only as one of the congressman’s constituents. The Beacon detailed further information pertaining to the organizer, identified as Maggie Goldman, saying she does live in McCormick’s district, but adding more of her background:
A self-described “Democrat & Political Activist,” Goldman, who did not respond to a request for comment, coordinated volunteers for Pete Buttigieg’s presidential campaign in 2019 and 2020, according to her LinkedIn. Shortly thereafter, she ran for her local county commission as a Democrat seeking to enact a “more inclusive policy agenda.” Goldman has donated exclusively to Democrats and sent Kamala Harris’s campaign more than $1,500 last year, according to campaign finance records.
The Beacon report also said similar protests have happened at other House GOP town halls and district offices, noting, “The demonstrations drove mainstream media coverage of brewing backlash against the Trump administration as the lower chamber left Washington, D.C., for a week-long recess. Well-funded liberal organizations organized many of them.”
Rent a protest is big business...
