A woman who later identified herself on social media as Laura Loomer jumped onto the stage just after the assassination of Caesar and began shouting, “Stop the normalization of political violence against the right,” and, “This is violence against Donald Trump.” Ms. Loomer describes herself as a “a right-wing investigative journalist and activist” who has previously worked with James O’Keefe, the conservative activist known for selectively edited undercover video investigations.
Ms. Loomer’s interruption of the scene was being recorded by a man in the audience who began shouting, “You are all Goebbels,” a reference to the Hitler aide and Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels. On social media, Jack Posobiec, an activist who supports President Trump and has been associated with conspiracy theories, identified himself as Ms. Loomer’s collaborator.

The article doesn't mention The Rebel or Levant, but a quick glance at Loomer's Twitter profile indicates she works for Rebel TV.
The article mentions Jack Posobiec, whom I blogged about last week - another associate of Ezra Levant.
Legitimate Canadian journalist Jeet Heer provides some insight via Twitter into the operations of Rebel media:
The link via Frank Magazine Ottawa gives more details.
So Rebel Media is basically paying its people to attack American institutions.
More evidence.
More evidence.
I still think Levant does most of what he does to try to get the attention of Justin Trudeau. I discuss his apparent homoerotic fascination with Trudeau here.
And I still think this was the happiest moment of Ezra Levant's life.

There were protestors outside the theater for last night's showing of JULIUS CAESAR but so far I haven't heard any of them work for Rebel.
So where have I been, while all this excitement is going on and the Delacorte Theater is a 10-minute walk from my apartment?
I've been sick in bed all weekend with a nasty cold. *sigh*
