Jacobin reported on how all this bullshit (including Andy Ngo's career) started, back in 2019:
link... if you think this guy is legit, I have a Bridge in Brooklyn I'd like to sell you.
I'm not even talking politics here... seriously, you fall for this stuff?
He was "nearly beaten to death" but released from the hospital a day later with a couple bumps and bruises on his face. No hyperbole or exaggeration there...
It begins with Portland police killing Patrick Kimmons, a 27-year-old African-American male, in disputed circumstances. The Black Lives Matter–style activist group, Don’t Shoot Portland, called for a protest on October 6. Kimmons’s family members joined in what local media described as a “peaceful” and uneventful event.
There was one dicey moment during the march. A driver made an illegal right turn into protesters who were in a crosswalk and had the walk sign. A local TV station that recorded the incident wrote: “driver plows through protesters.” Video shows a man stopping in front of a silver Lexus that then strikes him and pushes him for more than thirty feet. Down the block, a brief confrontation ensues with a protester shoving the driver once and others hitting his vehicle. The driver left in his car without any more incident as protesters yelled, “Get out of here.”
It was unremarkable. But another video of the incident began circulating where it is difficult to see the protester being struck, enabling false claims such as, “#ANTIFA Anarchists Threaten Elderly Driver in Portland!” The story jumped to Fox News with Tucker Carlson replaying the obscured video, blaming everyone from Antifa and Occupy ICE to the Washington Post, Maxine Waters, Hillary Clinton, and protesters yelling at Trump officials in restaurants. Carlson’s guest was Andy Ngo playing an expert on lax law enforcement in Portland in an affected British accent.
Note: Andy Ngo is from portland, OR, born and raised and if you can't see through the goofy affected accent he uses in these videos, you're either not very smart, or a pathetic liar.There was one dicey moment during the march.
