In an ironic twist of fate, a man, consumed by his animosity towards the President of the United States, now faces the possibility of permanent vision loss after a chaotic protest in Los Angeles turned violent on Saturday.
According to , an alarming number of fervent opponents of Donald Trump gathered for protests nationwide. Entrepreneur and political commentator Patrick Bet-David (PBD) revealed that over 1,500 meticulously organized demonstrations were orchestrated by Democrats and their NGO allies across all 50 states. This, he warned, appeared to be a calculated effort to undermine President Trump and stir further unrest as the midterm elections loom.
Among the alleged financiers of these protests is the woke billionaire Walmart heiress, Christy Walton.
As anticipated, the day was marred by significant violence, as protestors clashed with law enforcement and targeted conservative journalists. TGP contributor Elijah Schaffer reported being hit with rubber bullets and tear gas while covering the unrest in LA, a situation that could have been avoided had the protestors chosen a more peaceful approach.
Marshall Woodruff, a participant in the protest, likely regrets his decision to take part, as he was shot in the eye with a rubber bullet during the “No Kings Day” rally in downtown Los Angeles. This incident unfolded as some protestors hurled bricks and bottles at police officers attempting to maintain order.
Woodruff described his harrowing experience from his hospital bed at L.A. General Medical Center during an interview with KABC’s Sid Garcia.
“The police just started, uh, opening fire on us, just spraying an obscene amount of rubber bullets everywhere,” he recounted.

As reported by Garcia, Woodruff claimed the protest was initially peaceful until it spiraled into chaos—a shift that many observers might attribute to the actions of a few individuals.
Woodruff subsequently detailed the severity of his injuries.
“The bullet fractured my cheek and tore part of my eye open, requiring about four to five hours of surgery to repair,” Woodruff explained. “It’s uncertain how much vision I will regain or how well I will see out of my right eye. Right now, it’s just a giant question mark.”
