Being a professional protester can be quite lucrative. Take, for example, Ana Maria Archila, who makes nearly three times the annual U.S. median household income doing things like confronting Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) in an elevator.
Archila (pictured above right) is one of eight officials making two and three times, or more, above the U.S. Census Bureau’s median average U.S. household income of $60,336 working for the tax-exempt nonprofit Center for Popular Democracy (CPD). Thanks to her encounter with Flake (above left), she is likely the most famous of the eight. Continue reading “Want to Get Rich? Be a Professional Left-Wing Protester Like Flake’s Elevator Gal”

Hesperia, located in the high desert of Southern California, became the first city to opt-out of San Bernardino County’s Agenda 21 program. The voluntary program was installed into the county with grants through the San Bernardino Council of Governments (SBCOG). The objective behind the plan is ‘Sustainable Development,’ which is rationing, cataloguing and controlling all assets and charging people for the use of the assets. It is a backdoor method to bring socialism into the local county government. Citizen activists who began their mission five years ago were successful in their bid to have the Hesperia City Council rescind the county-wide ‘Vision Statement’.
