protester-debateOn Tuesday, Kai Newkirk, an individual who describes himself on Twitter as a “Progressive organizer” and a co-founder of something called “99Rise,” said he was banned from Sheldon Adelson’s casino for life after interrupting the GOP debate.

He bragged about the incident on Twitter and posted a video of his protest on Facebook.

Earned a lifetime ban from Sheldon Adelson’s Venetian. #worthithttp://www.democracyspring.org
