Tucker, the person who initially shared the images, published a blog post explaining that he didn't actually know what the buses were being used for, and that he merely assumed that they were related to the protest since it was the only major event in the area that he was aware of at the time:On Wednesday a few minutes after 5pm, upon leaving a meeting near downtown Austin, I chanced on a large group of busses parked just east of the I-35 on 5th Street. I snapped a few pictures and was on my way.
Later that day, I noticed news reports of protests in downtown and near the University of Texas campus. Having dealt with closed streets and unusual traffic patterns that day toward the south of the downtown (below 8th street) and having seen some pictures of protests that looked more like the south end of downtown than near the capitol, I presumed the busses had something to do with the protests.
Casually, I texted a few friends and then made a Twitter post. I post on Twitter just a few times a year, and until yesterday I had about 40 followers.

Was I flat wrong? Perhaps!
It turns out Tableau was having a massive conference having nothing to do with politics less than a mile away. Could these have been busses for Tableau?s shenanigans? I hope they don?t mind me linking to the schedule from that same day.
Hedge: You seriously believed George Soros bused a bunch of protesters in? I guess they just put out the liberal Protestor needed ad and the buses just filled right up. So dumb. So gullible. Sadly, you have enough people that think like you to get a reality TV star elected.
I wonder what Oprah is doing in 2020? She could run with Charles Manson on the ticket and win.
Soros funds BLM and most of the protests. These were organized well before election day by key individuals. Just like the organizations affiliated with the DNC that sent agitators to the Trump rally's to stir up shit. Soros is a bag man for the deep state and has millions of dollars to play with. Yes he is not going away just because Donald won the election. If you think he is not involved then you are not very well informed. You are the gullible one. Do the research or just stick your head back in the sand. Yea 59,000,000 Americans are dumb. You are the smart one.

Hedge/Jaxx: Please address the Snopes links that prove your posts were complete bullshit.
TIA.
Soros is snopes! You take the cake man. Wake up
:mj07:
Gary, I didn't read any if these articles, but snopes is not the source to discredit since Soros owns it now. It's not a credible source anymore.
Other than right wing email chains that went viral, what proof do you have?
Like you buddies, I believe you fell for a hoax that wants to discredit the place that discredits all their propaganda. Sorry Clint, you've been suckered......again.
Why so hostile? I'M quite sure u know very little about my personal "politics" bc I rarely put them on here. I don't toe any line. GL
Because you are defending moronic viewpoints that you share with people like Hedgehog. You're smarter than them, Clint. You can't be on the side of "If it isn't from Fox News, it can't be trusted".
I have voted Democratic ONCE in my life for President. Once. It was when the Republicans trotted out a reality TV star to run the country and I had to put my foot down and vote what was best for the country. Don't tell me you toe the line when you eat up the right wing propaganda, just like people like Jaxx and Hedghog.
PS: Please post your proof that Snopes.com is owned by George Soros or admit you were wrong. It would set a good example for the retards you're currently aligned with politically.
You say 59,000,000 voters and your own family are dumb.
You call them retards, dumb, moronic. What makes you so damn smart? You are not well informed that is obvious. Your views are from everyday media run by the left. As they like to say here at Mj's a simpleton.
Whatshisnuts, I think fox news is on the lines of cnn, and on news lines up with a rag like the Huffington post. All are biased and not credible. I didn't look up snopes now, and I'm not brainwashed nor am I a right winger. If I'm wrong, so be it.
Both sides post the other side isn't credible. It's comical. Look in this thread. Same stuff both sides.
Lastly, there was no choice in the presidential election that was good. I would never vote for Hillary bc I can't agree with her on so many issues, and she's a horrible person. Hillary Clinton leader of the free world? What a clusterfuck. I'm glad it didn't happen. I dont like trump either. I really think he's a buffoon. Our choices were pathetic. Hillary lost, but at least u didn't waste ur vote on the Green Party this year. GL
