False Flag Operation... February 25, 2017 9:44 am RL

CPAC crowd waves Russian flags with Trump’s name on them:

Jason Charter, 22, and Ryan Clayton, 36, passed out roughly 1,000 red, white, and blue flags, each bearing a gold-emblazoned “TRUMP” in the center, to an auditorium full of attendees waiting for President Trump to address the conference. Audience members waved the pennants—and took pictures with them—until CPAC staffers realized the trick: They were Russian flags.

The stunt made waves on social media, as journalists covering CPAC noticed the scramble to confiscate the insignia.

They have a hard time with flags, which is funny given how much they like to wrap themselves in the American flag…

Vice President Mike Pence late Friday mistakenly used the Nicaraguan flag emoji in place of the Israeli flag in two tweets expressing support for Israel.

Both tweets, which were quickly deleted, came just before Pence’s speech to the Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC).
