Mysterious Duffel Bags of Cash Conveniently Appear to Bail Out Radical Leftist Protesters

It sounds like a scene out of a political potboiler: Mysterious duffel bags of cash, often full of hundred-dollar bills, being brought in to bail out protesters. Sometimes, the amount of cash can exceed $50,000. And the locked-up protesters don’t need to call a single person.

It’s not a work of fiction, though. This is what’s happening in Minnesota, where the reports say huge sums of hard money are being used to get environmentalist protesters who object to the construction of the Line 3 pipeline replacement out of jail.

According to Alpha News, a conservative online news outlet based in Minnetonka, Minnesota, hundreds of demonstrators have been arrested across the state after various acts of vandalism and trespassing, including several protesters from outside Minnesota.

Line 3 is the newest cause célèbre among the environmentalist left now that Keystone XL is, for all intents and purposes, dead and buried.

As noted by the Minnesota Post, an online news outlet considered to have a more liberal bent, this is somewhat different — with the Line 3 replacement being “intended to replace a smaller existing pipeline that first began operating in the 1960s that is aging, corroding and considered a...

Clashes in Paris as protesters march over mandatory Covid jabs & incoming ‘health pass’ scheme in France (VIDEOS)

People in France have taken to the streets to protest against the government’s decision to make Covid-19 vaccination compulsory for health workers and to introduce a health pass to access bars and restaurants.

Protests took place across France on Wednesday with heated clashes erupting with police in Paris. A number of groups, including those associated with the Gilets Jaunes (Yellow Vest) movement, announced their intention to hold demonstrations across the country on Tuesday following the government’s announcement of compulsory vaccinations for health workers and the introduction of a national Covid-19 passport.

In Paris, eyewitness footage captured people fleeing from tear gas as police were deployed in sizable numbers to break up the demonstrations. Major city arteries could be seen blocked by protesters and police. In one instance, a canister of tear gas landed near a restaurant terrace, causing diners to scarper inside.

Smaller protests took place elsewhere in the city, with some groups convening at Place de Clichy. Demonstrators could be heard banging drums and chanting in footage shared on social media.

Some of the protesters adopted unusual garb as part of their demonstrations, including one participant who dressed as Jesus and bore a large cross for...

GET READY: ECONOMISTS ARE PREDICTING MAJOR INFLATION NOT SEEN IN DECADES IN MAJOR HIT ON U.S. ECONOMY

You weren’t one of those Americans who believed the Biden regime when they told us some weeks ago that “inflation is transitory,” were you?

Good, because the regime lied to us.

New figures (not including ‘volatile’ food and gasoline because those would make inflation numbers even worse) show that price hikes are real, and they’re spectacular.'Americans should brace themselves for several years of higher inflation than they've seen in decades, according to economists who expect the robust post-pandemic economic recovery to fuel brisk price increases for a while,' The Wall Street Journal reported.

'The respondents on average now expect a widely followed measure of inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy components, to be up 3.2% in the fourth quarter of 2021 from a year before. They forecast the annual rise to recede to slightly less than 2.3% a year in 2022 and 2023. That would mean an average annual increase of 2.58% from 2021 through 2023, putting inflation at levels last seen in 1993.'

Here’s what a gaggle of economists said:

— Joel Naroff, chief economist at Naroff Economics LLC: 'We're in a transitional phase right now. We are transitioning to a higher period of inflation and interest rates than we've had over the last 20 years.'

— Diane Swonk, chief economist at Grant Thornton: 'Inflation is expected to surge longer and longer—longer than the Fed previously thought. The Fed is now likely to raise rates in the first half of 2023, although some Fed presidents will be nipping at the bit to move sooner.'

— Kevin Swift, chief economist at the American Chemistry Council: 'The danger is that monetary authorities are behind the curve. I'm not saying hyperinflation is around the corner, just that a lot of things have come together in the last year, and the overall trend of costs across the board is growing faster than in the last five or 10 years.'

— Swift noted the havoc that inflation is having on the construction industry, saying: 'It's disruptive—you can't be sure of what your costs are, whether you can get supplies or what the costs will be six months from now. I'd hate to be in the construction business trying to bid on a job when you don't know what the cost of steel will be 18 months from now.'

CNN confessed that 'Americans have witnessed some wild price hikes over the past few months. Shortages and supply chain issues across the world have sent the cost to make and move goods soaring and...
