Violent Leftists outraged cops monitored them for violence (05-01-2025--Hour1)

[00:00:29] So some local, kind of, sort of, teensy-weensy, little bit violent leftist activists are pretty upset that law enforcement is keeping an eye on them in case they start engaging in any of the violence that they may have kind of sort of been involved with in the past. They're very, very upset. There's a lawsuit now. Yeah, yeah.

[00:00:55] I mean, it's not about the violence or the police monitoring their social media feeds or anything. No, it's about open meetings law and whether Central Piedmont Community College violated the state's open meetings law when it was discussing, like, land swaps and purchases and the development of the police, medic, fire training center that they're looking to build down.

[00:01:25] And, like, land swaps and the police, fire training center that they're looking to build down in Matthews. And this is now, well, I mean, look, the, the Antifa part-time temporary LARPing anarchist types, like, they, they really haven't had a whole lot to do since Atlanta kicked their tails in, at Cop City Atlanta. And so now they're, you know, they're looking for a sequel and they really want Cop City CLT to be a thing.

[00:01:53] They just basically oppose training law enforcement. They don't want law enforcement to be trained while also decrying the lack of training that law enforcement has that leads to the deaths of people who are simply merely, you know, waving a firearm at, at uniformed police.

[00:02:11] So, um, Central Piedmont Community College, according to the Charlotte Observer's Ryan Orley, um, CPCC asked the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police to, quote, flag any growing movement against a first responder training facility being built in Matthews, according to emails that were included in a lawsuit.

[00:02:36] So this is the story published at the Observer yesterday, but it's the second story that actually, um, uh, that, yeah, that, that is, uh, rooted in this lawsuit against CPCC. The first story that Ryan Orley did was back on April 25th. Okay.

[00:02:59] So six days ago, first story about the lawsuit yesterday, a follow-up story based on some of the exhibits that were in the lawsuit. But here's the key. According to the, um, observers headline that the emails show that CMPD gathered social media intel on police abolitionist group.

[00:03:33] I'm supposed to be mad at this. Why would I be mad at this? You're posting stuff on social media and they can look at your stuff. You posted it. It's up there. And you're anti-cop. So, oh, we're not anti-police. We, we just don't want them, you know, to have a training facility. And then we want to use their lack of training as a way to defund the police.

[00:03:56] See, police agreed to keep an eye on the activist group called Charlotte Uprising and shared with college officials some social media posts that were critical of the plan. Because Charlotte Uprising, they, this is the leftist activist group. And, uh, they got a bit of a record here. Um, and some of them have a bit of a police record.

[00:04:23] And the Uprising crowd were the anti-cop city Atlanta protesters too. They were part of that crowd. So, of course, Charlotte Mecklenburg police is going to be keeping tabs on them and their social media posts, particularly when they are organizing collectivist action against this, uh, the construction of this training facility.

[00:04:48] Because they have a bit of a reputation of getting kind of sort of a little bit teensy weensy bit violent. Particularly when it comes to these types of training facilities. Charlotte Uprising describes itself as a police and prison abolition organization. A police abolition organization. And prisons. They want no cops and they want no prisons.

[00:05:19] Like, that is the stupidest thing in the world. Okay. Once again, foundational pillars of any functioning society. Number one, security. Security. If you do not have security, then you don't have a society. Because without security, nothing else can occur. You cannot engage in commerce. Right? You can't go to your little concerts. You can't hit your favorite food trucks. Because gangs will hit your food trucks.

[00:05:49] And they will rob the food truck. And then you will have no food at the food truck. Maybe not even somebody who was running the food truck. Because they may kill that person and take all of their stuff. See, that's what you get when you do not have security. First thing, got to have some security. The ability to defend yourself. And in our society, we have turned this responsibility over to police departments.

[00:06:16] Police departments that are controlled by our elected representatives. This is not to say that there are no abuses by cops. Of course there are. Like, a long time ago, I read a line and it's... I feel like it is a really good encapsulation of the issue. Which is, conservatives have to understand that not every cop is good. And leftists have to understand that not every cop is bad.

[00:06:46] Right? There are going to be abuses, but not all cops commit them. Like, this should be obvious. So they are a police and prison abolition organization. So, you might imagine, completely illogical. A message sent to the group's Instagram page was not returned in time for this... The publication of this story at the Charlotte Observer. Asked about police keeping watch on a political group. Well, it's... Okay, now hang on a second.

[00:07:16] Ryan Orley, the reporter here. It's not just a political group. Okay? It's not simply a political group. This is a left-wing activist organization that has a history of being on site during violent interactions with law enforcement. So, it's not simply a political... It's not like it's the local Democrat Party.

[00:07:45] Although there are a lot of crossover, you know, members, I'm sure. Catherine Butler, a spokesperson for CPCC, said that, quote, this activist group and others have targeted the college, our leaders, college personnel, and the project's partners. I have not heard this, by the way. Listen to this next sentence. Over the last several months, our design firm working on the facility

[00:08:13] has had its offices vandalized, broken into, and ransacked. Do you know of another kind of an architectural firm or design firm that would... where this would happen? Of course not. Am I to believe this has nothing to do with their work on this project? Of course it does. Again, what do I always say? Don't whiz on my boots and tell me it's raining. Stop the gaslighting.

[00:08:43] We all understand why a design firm working on this project would all of a sudden have their offices attacked. She went on to say, it's important for any organization, including Central Piedmont Community College and agencies involved in the project, to maintain the safety and security of its facilities, its people and partners, so we are attentive to information shared by law enforcement as well as public information on social media. Precisely.

[00:09:12] They would be derelict, negligent, if they were not keeping tabs on this organization and their public statements. Indeed, I would submit that local law enforcement would be negligent and derelict in their duty if they were not keeping tabs on this organization from the inside. Like, this is the kind of organization that you would put somebody into.

[00:09:42] You would want somebody on the inside, so this way, if they start planning mayhem, vandalism, murders, attacks, whatever, you would get, you would get a heads up. You would know ahead of time. So you could thwart it. Anytime I can use the word thwart, I will take it. Here's a great idea. How about making an escape to a really special and secluded getaway in western North Carolina, just a quick drive up the mountain? And Cabins of Asheville is your connection.

The former mayor pro tem failed secretary of labor candidate as well. And according to the AI, Braxton Winston, a prominent figure in the Charlotte Uprising protest, was elected to the

[00:11:40] Charlotte City Council in 2017. He emerged as a key activist after the shooting of Keith Lamont Scott by CMPD, leading to widespread Keith Lamont Scott who had a gun, refused to drop it, and then raised it up and then was shot and killed. And they turned it into a racial thing because Keith Lamont Scott was black. Although the officer that shot him was also black, but that didn't matter because he was wearing the blue, and so that's the only thing that matters, of course.

[00:12:10] That led to the widespread protests in the city in 2017. And of course, Braxton Winston had his shirt off because it was hot out and he's in the streets and raising his fist in the air and somebody takes a picture of him and it goes viral and then he parlays that into a run for the Charlotte City Council. And so, yeah, I don't know if he was like a, I don't know if there was like an organizational structure at that time. But, yeah,

[00:12:40] that's what launched his career in politics, I should say. And that's the group that now CMPD is, you know, following on social media, making sure that as they're posting all of these calls to action against CPCC and identifying people by name and, you know, posting meetups and stuff and addresses to go protest in front of

[00:13:08] that if they're going to get a little violent and they post that stuff on social media, CMPD wants to know about it, as they should, by the way, as they should. Evan White, public affairs manager at CMPD, did not respond to questions from the Charlotte Observer about whether CMPD was still collecting intelligence on Charlotte Uprising and what the department's policy is on monitoring activist groups. Well, I hope they are. I hope they're still monitoring

[00:13:36] and I don't think they should tell you that. So, that's part of an investigation, right? I have made a request, this is from a CP, the Central Piedmont Community College Public Safety Dean, Luke Sell, is his name, Luke Sell. And he said, I have made a request to CMPD's Intel team to flag anything regarding this facility and help us determine if any movement gains traction.

[00:14:06] Right, okay, perfectly appropriate, good to be prepared. And, um, he went on to say that the group's posts were not overly concerning, but definitely something to watch and, uh, so they can plan accordingly. The $118 million project set to be completed sometime around 2028 and these emails that were obtained, um, by the Charlotte Observer were obtained because they were exhibits in a lawsuit that was filed

[00:14:35] against CPCC by these activists who claim that CPCC violated the state's open meeting law by discussing the details of this land acquisition in closed session. Which, by the way, that is actually something you are allowed to talk about in closed session. Land acquisition. Real estate deals. They do it all the time. Local governments do this all the time. And the reason why is because if word gets out

[00:15:04] that they are trying to negotiate for some particular parcel of land and somebody is adjacent, a landowner is adjacent, they could then try to squeeze more money. They could use it in the negotiations against the government because the government's got deep pockets, right? That's why you're allowed to do these things in closed session. And then after the deal is done, then you release the information. Uh, so the emails were included as exhibits in a lawsuit

[00:15:34] filed in Mecklenburg last week. Five plaintiffs allege that CPCC broke open meeting law when they discussed, uh, uh, when they were discussing and planning this facility. One of the, uh, there, so there are two bits from this, uh, article that I find, uh, interesting. Uh, one is as follows that a CMPD detective in one of these emails references an activist

[00:16:04] arrested during Charlotte's 2020 protests protests over the killing of St. George Floyd and then again in Atlanta. They were, the same activist was arrested then again in Atlanta for that cop city protest. The detective called the activist, quote, one of the main agitators in the 2020 riots in Charlotte. Now, I thought this was interesting.

[00:16:33] Who is this activist? activist? Why, like, why wouldn't you name this person in the, in the news article? Well, they did post the lawsuit, all 260 pages of it, and I went through the 260 pages this morning, and I found the email that was in the exhibit, and here's what the email says.

[00:17:09] posting about the new CPCC law enforcement training facility trying to compare it to Atlanta's cop city. If you remember, James Marsicano from Charlotte Uprising was arrested in Georgia as part of the cop city protests. Marsicano was also one of the main agitators in the 2020 riots in Charlotte and was arrested then as well. Take care, let us know if you need anything. Why wouldn't you identify James Marsicano?

[00:17:39] In the article. It doesn't save you any word count, so that can't be it. I have some theories. Well, really one, but it's also connected to this other tidbit that I thought was of note. At the very end of the story, there is a disclaimer, and credit to the Charlotte Observer for pointing this out to their readers. It says, Ryan Orley

[00:18:09] covers criminal justice in the Charlotte region for the Charlotte Observer. His work is produced with financial support from the non-profit The Just Trust. The Observer maintains full editorial control of its journalism. Okay, so the Observer is taking money from a non-profit called The Just Trust, and they claim that just because we're getting this money to fund the salary of a reporter,

[00:18:39] at least in part, I don't know how much the observer is taking in from this non-profit, but I'm supposed to believe that all editorial control ignores the revenue stream that funds the creation of the content that you are now selling. You want me to believe that there's zero impact, zero influence whatsoever? I don't believe you. I don't believe that, particularly when this non-profit is The Just Trust. Do you want to take a guess what The Just

[00:19:08] Trust is all about? Well, if you guessed prison and police abolition, you'd be correct. The very thing that Charlotte Uprising is all about is also the very thing that The Just Trust is about. I mean, they dress it all up in corporate NGO gobbledygook on their website. You've got to sift through it, but you understand what it is that they're arguing for when they talk about

[00:19:38] reforms and a more humane system and all of this. Yeah, these are prison abolitionists. They want to tear down the system as it exists. The Just Trust, that's what they're funding. And they do it all over the place. They also fund the ACLU. So, I don't know, like, maybe you guys should do a bit of a story about the impact that this nonprofit

[00:20:08] funding may be having on news in your newsroom, if any. All right, so spring is here, a time of renewal and celebrations.

All right, so back in 2023, a little over, well, I guess it was two years now, 25 months, a second year law student at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill School of Law was arrested and charged with domestic terrorism in a coordinated crowd attack on the police training center in Atlanta.

[00:21:38] James Marsicano, 30 years old, was among 23 people arrested after police say a group of demonstrators used the cover of a peaceful protest and the South River music festival to attack construction equipment and police officers. Kind of feel like the police officers should get top billing there, over the equipment. Anyway, police say 35 people were detained,

[00:22:07] 23 charged by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation or the GBI. They changed into black clothing and entered the construction area and began to throw large rocks and bricks and Molotov cocktails and fireworks at police officers, according to Atlanta PD. So, James Marsicano, also known as Jamie Marsicano, she, her pronouns,

[00:22:37] is the son of Michael Marsicano. And when I was a reporter here in Charlotte for almost a decade, I had many occasions to interview and attend meetings with and hear presentations by Michael Marsicano, who was the CEO of the Foundation of the Carolinas, Foundation for the Carolinas, I believe. And they were involved

[00:23:07] in like every major project that the City Council, County Commission, even the school board, they were super in-depth involved in bringing together public private partnerships to create, you know, events, venues, and initiatives, you know, aimed at improving the society and the city and all sorts of stuff. They were involved in like everything. Michael

[00:23:35] Marsicano led that organization. This is his kid, his 30-year-old son, who's now probably 32, I guess, Michael Marsicano retired in January of 2023. He was also a governing board member at Duke University and Duke University Health System. He was named to the top spot of the most powerful in Charlotte in 2017. He and his wife have

[00:24:05] remained influential in the Charlotte area, leading Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles' racial, the mayor's racial equity initiative, the $250 million thing. Remember that the mayor announced, I think it was like COVID money or something, but he's a big name and this has got to be terrible for him. I'm not trying to drag him in or besmirch him or anything, but I have to wonder if

[00:24:36] his son had any other father, an unknown guy that worked at a bank or something. I wonder if he would be named in this Charlotte Observer story. James Marsicano goes by the alias Jamie Marsica or Marsicana identifies as a white trans femme organizer in Charlotte, this is his own words on his profile, who is fiercely committed to

[00:25:06] supporting black trans femmes, prison abolition, and destabilizing all forms of oppression. She, they, was a core organizer during the Charlotte uprising. Marsicano's arrests include anti-police demonstrations dating back to 2016. Let's see, if we go backwards from the Cop City protest where he was charged with domestic

[00:25:36] terrorism, June of 2020, charged with assault on a government official, resisting a police officer and disorderly conduct in an altercation with a police officer during the George Floyd fiery but mostly peaceful summer of love protests in uptown Charlotte. Prior to that, in 2017, he was arrested at Charlotte Douglas Airport in a Charlotte uprising, Black Lives Matter skirmish with police when a protest against then-President Donald Trump's executive order banning

[00:26:05] refugees and citizens from seven Muslim majority countries got physical. The year before that, 2016, Marsicano was also arrested and charged with disorderly conduct in protests after the Mecklenburg County DA's office decided not to file charges against the officer who shot and killed Keith Lamont Scott. And then, of course, most recently was the domestic terrorism charges filed by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, which then led to him getting banned from the UNC Chapel Hill

[00:26:35] campus where he was a second-year law student, which then prompted students at UNC to walk out of class to protest that decision. Marsicano's attorney, Aaron King, at the time, this was April 2023, Aaron King said that the charge against her client is baseless, noting that by prosecutors' own admission, authorities do not have any evidence directly tying Marsicano to the scene. They said there was no video.

[00:27:06] The arrests occurred near a music festival about three-quarters of a mile away, more than two hours after the attack took place. According to the lawyer, Marsicano was arrested near a food truck while eating dinner at the festival. But prosecutors wanted no bond from Marsicano because they said he, he, he, he, saying he is an anarchist who was wearing muddy black clothing and had been arrested in connection with protests to North Carolina

[00:27:36] in 2016 and 2017. Right? So he's got a rap sheet. This is kind of what he does. Right? He goes and he protests and he gets violent with law enforcement. The officers who stormed the festival following the attack on Cop City, Atlanta, were looking for people who had muddy clothing. Why? Well, because the people who stormed the construction site, they had to

[00:28:05] cross a stream, a creek, in order to get to the music festival where they blended in with the crowd. So when the cops show up, they're like, look for people dressed in all black because that's the uniform of the temporary anarchist LARPers, and they're going to be covered in mud because they crossed this creek. So they're going to be muddy. And lo and behold, this guy with muddy black clothes and a rap sheet for doing this exact kind

[00:28:35] of violence happens to be standing next to a food truck eating some chow. Activists say that the evidence in question is not adequate because it rained two days before the festival, and so there were patches of mud on the festival grounds that apparently, I guess he what, they rolled in or something? That's just... Megan Rankins, a friend and classmate, said, Marcecano challenges us to think in class and is

[00:29:05] a resource for many who are facing struggles both inside and outside the classroom, especially when it comes to supporting those struggling with mental health. Jamie is just this glowing, bubbly, wonderful personality when he's not attacking police. Okay, I added that last part. All right, if you're listening to this show, you know I try to keep up with all sorts of current events, and I know you do too, and you've probably heard me say, get your news from multiple sources. Why? Well, because it's how you detect media bias, which is why I've been so impressed

[00:29:35] with Ground News. It's an app, and it's a website, and it combines news from around the world in one place, so you can compare coverage and verify information. You can check it out at check.ground.news slash Pete. I put the link in the podcast description too. I started using Ground News a few months ago, and more recently chose to work with them as an affiliate because it lets me see clearly how stories get covered and by whom. The blind spot feature shows you which stories get

[00:30:04] ignored by the left and the slash Pete. Subscribe through that link, and you'll get 15% off any subscription. I use the Vantage plan to get unlimited access to every feature. Your subscription then not only helps my podcast, but it also supports Ground News as they make the media landscape more transparent. Ryan Orley at the Charlotte Observer did a story about the lawsuit filed against CPCC about six days ago.

[00:30:35] A Central Piedmont Community College student alleged in a lawsuit that security guards followed her and barred her from returning to campus after she went to a board of trustees meeting. That's not why they followed her and barred her. They alleged certain behavior that occurred inside the meeting. She is one of five plaintiffs alleging that school officials broke open meetings law when discussing a planned first responder training facility that is being built on 23 acres at the college's

[00:31:04] Matthews campus. The college calls the plan Community Lifeline a opponent have called it a cop city like the one that drew protests in Atlanta. The plaintiffs are being represented by the Southern Coalition for Social Justice, a Durham-based non-profit that provides legal advice and representation to poor people and minority communities. Ryan, it is a left-wing activist organization.

[00:31:33] These are leftists. The Southern Coalition for Social Justice is a leftist law firm. Okay? And they have successfully put two of their CEOs, presidents, leaders, on the state Supreme Court. Allison Riggs, who is in the fight with Jefferson Griffin, and Anita Earls. Anita Earls was the founder of this organization. See, the left loves their activist lawyers when they

[00:32:03] are of the left. They have no problem putting somebody like a Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Anita Earls, onto the courts. No problem. But, you know, God forbid you mention anything of a conservative persuasion and you want to be put onto the courts, then it's like, oh, we can't have you. You're an ideologue and all of this. Anyway, the lawsuit alleges the College Board violated open meetings law by not keeping adequate minutes, not recording the meetings, not issuing proper public notice

[00:32:33] of meetings, requiring photo ID for the public to attend a meeting, failing to provide copies of an agenda, and unlawfully discussing the plan in closed session. Again, you're allowed to talk about real estate development deals in closed session. So, the College says, quote, our commitment to the residents of Mecklenburg County and the first responders who serve them will not waver. Central Piedmont strongly disagrees with the allegations outlined which are based

[00:33:02] on inaccurate claims. The complaint said that a visiting student named Ebony Exius, oh, actually that might be Ebony, but spelled with an I, Ebony Exius of Charlotte left a March 12th board meeting before it went into closed session. School officials cited a statute that allowed meetings to be closed to the public for anti-terrorism planning, which makes sense considering what I just told you about

[00:33:32] Marcecano. The lawsuit alleged that a security guard followed her, took a picture of her license plate as she drove off, and then Mecklenburg County's assistant public defender, Mina Ezekpe, I don't know how to pronounce it, E-Z-I-K-P-E, I don't know. She then left the meeting around the same time. Security also followed her, and the student said she was told that she was banned from campus and would be

[00:34:02] arrested if she didn't leave. And then the public defender's boss got a call and learned that she was also banned from the campus. CMPD officer claimed that she was swearing in a disrespectful and abusive manner toward the board members and CPCC security, but no one watching the meeting was allowed to speak at all, according to the lawsuit. Well, just because you didn't get a

[00:34:31] carve-out to go in front of the board and speak like two minutes to make your case on something, just because they didn't let you speak at the board meeting doesn't mean that you didn't scream and yell and cuss out people. The plaintiffs say that they did not swear at staff or campus security and another attorney, Xavier Torres de Janon of Charlotte, alleged that he asked a school representative for an agenda and given the repeated references to a non-public

[00:35:01] agenda having been circulated to members of the board, but was told that no such agenda existed. In the exhibits of the lawsuit, by the way, he's apparently been swapping emails with Mecklenburg County Commissioner Laura Meyer on this. The plaintiffs want a judge to order the March 12th meeting nullified along with any other meetings where the board allegedly broke state law. So what are they trying to do? They're trying to stop the project. They're trying to stop the project. Now, what's interesting also is that the term leftist is never used

[00:35:30] in this article, which is paid for in part by the Just Trust nonprofit. That's a leftist organization. But let me real quick just go over who the parties are, who these plaintiffs are. I mentioned Mina Esquipeke, whatever. She's a public defender and in the complaint it says, it lists who she is, where she went to school and all of this. This is in the lawsuit, labeling her as one of the parties and at the very end it says, Ms.

[00:36:00] Esquipe is black. And then plaintiff Ebony Exeus, employed by Atrium Health Sardis Oaks, tells some of her background and then says, Exeus is black. attorney, employed as director of mass defense at the National Lawyers Laird Guild. His legal work includes supporting community responses to state repression and researching publicly funded development of police training centers referred to as cop cities and the potential

[00:36:30] for increased police militarization, environmental destruction, and harm to marginalized communities nationally. Mr. Dejeanon is a brown immigrant from South America. What are you talking about? By the way, why are you listing everybody's race in your lawsuit? Also, what is the National Lawyers Guild? Well, it's a leftist alternative to the American Bar Association. In fact, the original early members of the

[00:36:59] National Lawyers Guild back in the 30s, they were commies. They were literally communists, and the National Lawyers Guild allied itself with the Communist Party. Another plaintiff, Julianne Liebenguth. She lives in Durham. She's an assistant professor of political science and public policy at Elon University. She studies power dynamics that shape global environmental issues, and she is white. Not

[00:37:29] capitalized there, folks. All of the other races are capitalized, but white is not, because that's how you level the millennia of oppression. And then finally, William Donovan Stanley. He lives in Charlotte. He graduated from Cox Mill High School. He has experienced harassment from the police and wants to learn more about the facility. Mr. Stanley is black. So he's just like an interested party. You get in the lawsuit?

[00:37:59] Okay. All right, that'll do it for this episode. Thank you so much for listening.
