LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA—Friday, June 13, marking the sixth day in a row of anti-ICE protests. On Saturday, June 14, there is another planned protest which is reportedly part of a nationwide “No Kings” protest.
First reports indicated that the anti-ICE protests were largely Democrats and others that truly were anti-immigration. That doesn’t make sense either. Nearly all polls taken ranked Immigration as the second most important issue among the American people.
The crowds of protesters are large. Most working-class people cannot take a week off work to join protests. That leads to the next question. Who is funding the protests?
California has the largest economy in the country. It also leads the nation in homelessness. Governor Newsom and AG Bonta have spent millions of dollars suing the Trump Administration.
According to reports, the No Kings protests are being funded in part by Walmart heiress Christy Walton. Sam Walton, the (now-deceased), founder of Walmart was a very patriotic man. Nothing was sold in his stores that wasn’t made in the USA. All of that changed when the stores were turned over to his heirs.
Reverend Al Sharpton was the keynote speaker for his Rainbow Push Coalition People’s Conference in Chicago, Illinois. He was to address the Department of Justice on Thursday, June 12, at 3:00 p.m. in what Sharpton indicated was his “Call to Action.”
Sharpton’s Rainbow Push organization normally targets companies that don’t value black clientele.
Christy Walton and Al Sharpton are not the sole financiers of the No Kings protests. Data Republic, Charity Funding, and Financials which tracks money flow and spending indicates that a multitude of alleged non-profit agencies are funding the June 14, No Kings protests aid protesters in other ways other than directly funding the protest itself.
Canyon News initially listed, United We Dream Action as a sponsor of the riots. They did not sponsor these riots.
ACLU may not directly fund a protest, but may offer monetary assistance by paying bail of those arrested. At least two teachers unions, and the Women’s March Network also sponsored the protest-turned riots.
Jane Citizen, an AI-initiated report narrows the funding down to 14 non-profits.
The next question is where do the crowds come from? Fox News Investigated and found out that the crowds aren’t anti-ICE protesters, but people from a “Rent-a-Crowd” group.
Fox News asked a spokesperson for California-based company “Crowds-on-Demand” group if they were indeed the paid agitators disrupting the ICE Raids in Los Angeles County.
The spokesperson indicated that they could not claim responsibility for these riots, as they take more of a “common-sense” approach. And although they did receive a lot of “High-Budget Requests they declined to participate,” and did “Not want to get close to any form of illegal activity, including violence, vandalism or blocking off roads without a permit.”
Saturday, June 14, is expected to be a day of protests. It is also a reality check. There are Non-Profit organizations that accept people’s hard-earned donations that fund protests that are attended by paid crowd agitators.
