WATCH: Socialist agitators lose it when cameras turn on them

WASHINGTON, D.C.— Far-left activists from the network funded by communist tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham can dish it out, but they can't take it.For years, CodePink activists, easily recognizable in hot pink T-shirts, have heckled lawmakers and officials in public settings with a tactic called "bird dogging," cornering targets, peppering them with hostile questions, like "Why do you support baby killers?" and shaming them on social media with tactics that amount to humiliation rituals.On Veterans Day, the agitators found themselves on the other side of the lens, and they didn't like it.For six hours on Wednesday, Fox News Digital followed members of CodePink, BreakThrough News, the People's Forum, the Party for Socialism and Liberation and allied groups in the Singham network through the halls of Congress during a lobbying event organizers called the "Taxpayer Uprising."But when the cameras turned on them, they angrily refused to answer questions and covered the camera lens, one time with a Palestinian keffiyeh scarf and another time with a backpack designed with the pattern of a watermelon, a symbol adopted by the Palestinian movement.

Then, they responded with smears and ad hominem attacks.Finally, they published their footage of the confrontations, turning their objections to being filmed into content for their followers.One follower congratulated them on their success deploying "psychic militancy."LAWMAKERS THROW OUT 'TROJAN HORSE' ACTIVISTS THEY SAY ARE ENGAGED IN AMERICAN SUBVERSIONRania Khalek, a co-host of "BT Live" at BreakThrough News interviews a congressman while Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin films the interaction.
