"A protest group known as Disrupt J20 has vowed to stage demonstrations at each of 12 security checkpoints and block access to the festivities on the grassy National Mall." Reuters

There are over 270,000 protesters expected... only thirty groups have permits.

So let me get this straight...Tucker Carlson on air basically outed this fake group as being fake? Originally the group claimed it was hiring people (falsely) to disrupt the Trump inauguration? And now they are changing their mission to releasing Roswell papers and to support Trump?

Did it appear that the originally stated fake  goal of the group was to discredit groups that were actually protesting against Trump, you know, to make it seem to those who wanted to believe such nonsense that of course there were protests but they are all paid shills so the protests lack credibility? Things are just a bit out of whack...just a tad.

Tucker Carlson’s bizarre on-camera interview with a Demand Protest representative who gave his name as “Dom Tullipso” felt like a piece of performance art, something even Carlson himself said out loud in the middle of the interview.

“So, this is a sham, your company isn’t real, your website is fake, the claims you have made are lies, this is a hoax,” Carlson began, before saying that his team couldn’t find a record of a person by the name “Dom Tullipso.” The supposed-Tullipso responded by correcting Carlson’s pronunciation of Tullipso. (It seems the “L’s” are silent.”)

Thanks so much for posting this hilarious interview ppac. The harder Tucker tried to expose 'Dom' the more ridiculous Tucker looked. Pressuring 'Dom' to admit he is a fake while 'Dom' kept responding with increasingly preposterous answers. All the while Tucker sat there with a bewildered expression on his face with mouth agape. My favorite part was mid interview when 'Dom' said due to all the threats from Trump supporters that they changed their minds and are going after Trump protesters instead.   Tucker claimed that didn't happen because "you don't exist." At that point 'Dom' mentioned Peyton Manning and the oblivious Tucker cracked a smile and became aware that he had given so much TV time to an obvious prankster. 'Dom' then mentioned the Roswell papers and they both started to crack up. He never admitted it was a hoax but said he was amazed that it's so easy to say whatever you want on national TV and have it passed off as truth. Funnier than anything SNL or Monty Python could create. Howard Stern was probably jealous that he didn't shout BABA-BOOEY! like his pranksters usually do.

Tucker knew the guy was a fake before he even put him on.

Then why'd he put him on?

Excellent journalistic standards.

I'm guessing half the FAUX News audience missed the part where it's fake.

Obviously, it was the viewers of  FOX NEWS  that caught the gist of the story.

Trump once funded a conservative provocateur now trying to pay for inauguration violence

Hidden camera stings, fake names, offers of "unlimited resources" for secretly inciting a riot — it's like Spy vs. Spy, only for Beltway nerds.

In a dramatic video of a hidden-camera "sting," progressive organizers and journalists caught an alleged employee of a conservative strategy group offering up hundreds of thousands of dollars to liberals as payment for causing violent mayhem at President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration, the Huffington Post reported.

The attempt bribing people to incite violence is a small part of a larger conservative attempt to paint anti-Trump protesters — particularly on Inauguration Day — as violent anarchists looking for a fight. Along with conservative op-eds about angry anarchists, there is evidence suggesting organizers for the alt-right planted a "Rape Melania" sign at an anti-Trump protest.
The latest flap, where a right-wing operative was caught trying to incite violence on Inauguration Day, arose because of a tip to the progressive political organization American Family Voices, or AFV, leading to an investigation by the group's own news show The Undercurrent. AFV heard that James O'Keefe, an infamous conservative sting artist himself, was offering to fund violent disruptions during the inauguration as part of a conservative dirty tricks campaign.

O'Keefe is a protege of Andrew Breitbart, the late founder of the eponymous now-pro-Trump website, and has been arrested and sued for various stunts. He has stood accused of doctoring videos to defame and defund progressive group ACORN, and once pleaded guilty to entering a senator's office dressed as telephone repairman under false pretenses.

That's not all. Since striking out on his own with Project Veritas, O'Keefe has also received funding by Trump's charitable foundation — and was even Trump's guest to the final presidential debate against Hillary Clinton.

AFV, confronted with rumors of a Trump-linked operative working to incite anti-Trump violence to smear liberals, sought to set up their own sting. Working with Ryan Clayton of the progressive group Americans Take Action, the group sought a meeting with a representative of a mysterious "Mr. Simon," who was said to be coordinating the campaign to incite violence on Inauguration Day.

When Mr. Simon's representative arrived at a restaurant for a meeting, it was none other than Allison Maass, a Project Veritas operative who has, in the past, tried to infiltrate the presidential campaigns of both Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

"What you're asking for, let's bullet point it," Clayton said in an extended clip of the video. "I'll give you $100,000 to shut down a bridge, incite a riot and make sure we hack the media narrative on the inauguration."

"You said you could do stuff like that," Maass confirms. "He says he likes it. Would you actually do it?"

After negotiating over possible disruptions, Clayton confronted Maass, who said she wouldn't speak without a lawyer and left. Mic has reached out to Project Veritas for comment, and will update this story with any additional information.

Trump himself has accused protesters disgusted by his election of being paid. Of all of the attention on counter-inaugural protests so far, though, the only reported offer of money to protestors came from a conservative operative — one who in the past has been funded by Trump.

Correction: Jan. 14, 2017
A previous version of this article stated that James O'Keefe "stood accused of [...] trying to break into a senator's office dressed as telephone repairman to alter the phone system." O'Keefe pleaded guilty to entering a building under false pretenses.

This punk stirs up more trouble than any "leftist" activist.

Faux News wants to expand their audience by putting their new clown in prime time, Pee Wee Tucker.

LOL, and just when Trump needs him. Maybe Putin has a position for him.
