Peter Hamby, formerly with CNN and now with Snapchat, reported this today from CPAC:
Crowd at CPAC waving these little pro-Trump flags that look exactly like the Russian flag. Staffers quickly come around to confiscate them. pic.twitter.com/YhPpkwFCNc

Here’s a close-up of what the flags looked like:
They are Russian flags with Trump’s name on them. Someone obviously paid to have them made to hand them out at CPAC.
But according to James O’Keefe, they were handed out by one of Bob Creamer’s henchmen:
This was Ryan Clayton from Bob Creamer group "Americans Take Action" handing Russian flags. Ryan was forcibly removed. You edited that out. https://t.co/hKwywREjn5

I looked to see if there was any information on twitter about Clayton being forcibly removed. I couldn’t find any, but I’m certainly not doubting O’Keefe on this. After all, he would know considering all the investigating he did into the Left last year. ‘
UPDATE: CONFIRMED!
