PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Around 200 people chanted ‘‘Coward!’’ and booed as Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan attended an event in the heavily Democratic state.

A strong police presence kept the crowd across the street from a Providence office building, where Ryan was meeting Thursday with Year Up, a nonprofit career training organization.

Ryan was not seen entering the building, but a motorcade carrying him pulled into an alley, where there’s a back entrance, away from protesters.

‘‘We want him to hear loud and clear that his values are Wall Street values, they’re not Rhode Island values,’’ said Georgia Hollister Isman, the state director of Rhode Island Working Families. ‘‘We’re also here in solidarity with our friends in Wisconsin who’ve been trying for months to get a town hall meeting with him.’’

1. Why did he think visiting RI would be a good idea?

[Ace Rothstein]

9. He's going to be in Chicago 3 weeks from yesterday.

There is probably going to be a pretty large protest.

3. not only a coward

but he is a globalist. i watch his reactions during congressional address when Trump mentioned no cuts to SS/Medicare and no TPP

he at most did a limp clap he was not happy about trump on those points.

i call him Eddie Munster,,,

5. remember when the news would cover those tea party protests with a dozen or two people?

Glad to see the 200+ people protests getting coverage as well.

7. Now that the Kocks aren't paying

for their sheeples to attend/protest, they've lost interest in being political.

6. A great big thank you from Wisconsin

to Rhode Island! I hope Lyin' Ryan heard it loud and clear!

[Still In Wisconsin]

13. Yeppy....................lets have a periscope event

so the whole state and the country and in fact the world can see what human beings think of look a like Eddie Munster, and how he wants to take safety net programs and kill us for a profit, because if and when I die, my wife gets my social security, under his plan, the banksters keep that money she doesn't get the money.

He is bought by the Koch, Sheldon Addison, Devos Family, Art Pope and finally the wall street crowd, the only reason why he is in office is how the legislature in your state drew the lines for redistricting and Rat F**ked democracy.

Just finish reading David Daley Book Rat F**ked and Chapter Nine (9) and has Wisconsin in there------------amazing.


I really despise this "guy" and I normally don't say that about anyone

10. Excellent!! Thank you, people!!

11. How come I didn't know about this? I would have been 201.

Ryan has sold us out to a hostile foreign power. He has no credibility.
