Although they won’t get—and don’t expect—any media credit for it, the NYPD ripped off the mask of the suspected ring leader behind the violent protests at Columbia University
The suspected ringleader of the ongoing Columbia riots is the 40-year-old son of a deceased multi-millionaire, who returns from campus riots to his three-story Brooklyn town house at night.
Thanks to the NYPD who unmasked him, James Carlson goes by two other aliases, Cody Carlson and Cody Tarlow, but was arrested, charged with burglary and illegal entry after he stormed Columbia's Hamilton Hall and re-named it 'Hind' Hall.
The accused, who is described as 'a long-time figure in the anarchist world' by officials, was also arrested for allegedly attacking a police officer during the violent G8 protests in San Francisco in 2005, according to the NY Post. (Daily Mail, May 4, 2024)
We don’t know what price—if any—this
“long-time figure in the anarchist world” paid for allegedly attacking a police officer in 2005, but do know that some 19 years later, he’s at the centre of the widespread U.S. campus riots. (Fox News, May 5, 2024)
Even after being unmasked by the NYPD, we do not know the date of his upcoming court appearance.
There is no Wikipedia entry for James Carlson, his aliases Cody Tarlow and Cody Carlson, and none for his late millionaire parents.
“James is the son of Richard Tarlow and Sandy Carlson Tarlow, millionaire advertising duo who started Carlson & Partners together and were known for their cosmetic and fashion clients including Revlon, Victoria’s Secret, Ralph Lauren and Neutrogena. (Daily Mail)
“The millionaire father was also a supporter of John Jay College and the John Jay Justice Awards that recognize people and organizations who demonstrate a commitment to justice.(Daily Mail)“Richard died at the age of 81 in May 2022 while Sandy died in 2003 at the age of 53.“James graduated Magna Cum Laude from Brooklyn Law School and later became an animal rights lawyer who clerked at the US District Court in 2013.“He also had a short stint as an undercover investigator on factory farms and slaughterhouses recording animal abuse, according to the publication.“James is believed to be married to model Kim Heyrman and has two children while living in a $3.4 million Brooklyn brownstone townhouse in New York.“The main house is a two-story property with four spacious bedrooms, four wood burning fireplaces with two on the parlor floor, according to Zillow.“The carriage house, on the other hand, has 18-foot-high ceilings with a loft area, skylights, electric heat for a kitchen and bath.“James is suspected of burning an Israeli flag during a demonstration two days ago and is believed to be 'previously involved in recent bridge and tunnel blocking', according to NBC News.

“Earlier this week, footage emerged of protestors smashed windows, upended furniture and caused damage throughout Hamilton Hall during the occupation before police stormed the campus and arrested more than 100 protestors Tuesday night.(Daily Mail)"Around 40 protestors were arrested on the first floor of the building after police swooped just after 9pm ending the pro-Palestine encampment that stretched on for nearly two weeks and included students taking over the hall."The occupation followed weeks of unrest at Columbia, which began with the establishment of the encampment on April 17.“University administrators have now asked the police to maintain a presence until May 17, two days after graduation."
The Truth about who is bankrolling the Anti-Israel protesters is slowly but steadily coming out.
“Anti-Israel protesters who have descended on college campuses are reportedly getting funding from several big-name Democratic donors, according to a report, that have backed President Biden's re-election efforts. (Fox News, May 5, 2024)
“Democratic donors such as George Soros, the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation, David Rockefeller Jr., who sits on the board of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, and Susan and Nick Pritzker, who own the Hyatt Hotel corporation, have funded pro-Palestinian efforts to protest the Israel-Hamas war, Politico reported.“Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow are the main organizations behind the anti-Israel protests at Columbia University, as well as other campuses, according to the outlet. They are backed by the Tides Foundation, which receives a substantial amount of funding from Soros, as well as the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation, and distributes money to left-wing causes.
“The Rockefeller Fund donated $300,000 to the Tides Foundation in 2022, according to Politico. The Tides Foundation has given $500,000 to Jewish Voice for Peace, a far-left, anti-Zionist organization, who blamed the Oct. 7 attacks on Israel and the U.S., rather than Hamas. (Fox News)"The Politico report, headlined, "Pro-Palestinian protesters are backed by a surprising source: Biden's biggest donors," was panned online Sunday for finally acknowledging what others had reported months ago."The Pritzkers also backed groups that are involved in the pro-Palestinian demonstrations. They have also resoundingly supported the president and donated $300,000 to his 2020 campaign."Why [is the Rockefeller Fund] giving significant grants to Jewish Voice for Peace, [which] blamed the horrific Oct. 7 attacks on Israel and the United States rather than Hamas?" Elisha Wiesel, a Democratic donor who chairs the Elie Wiesel Foundation, told Politico."Fox News Digital reported in April that a left-wing dark money group funded by Soros would provide bail and legal support for anti-Israel activists who were arrested after blocking major roads and highways nationwide."The demonstrations were largely organized by A15 Action, a recently created group that said it would "coordinate a multi-city economic blockade on April 15 in solidarity with Palestine.”“Under the group's "resources" section on its website, users are pointed to a "bail and legal defense fund" hosted by ActBlue, the leading fundraising platform for Democratic campaigns and groups nationwide.”
Meanwhile, sad to say, we can expect James Carlson back on the campus riot scene, fully masked any day now, still leading the media narrative.
