“Just … follow the money.” – Deep Throat, All the President’s Men
That used to be the watchword for investigative journalists. If you want to uncover corruption, find out where the money is coming from and where it is going. At least it used to be.
Today? Not so much. At least not when doing so could implicate Democrats or upset the left’s agenda.
Case in point is the Los Angeles riots. There’s plenty of reason to believe that the riots are being organized and financed by unsavory characters whose mission is to foment division and violence in the United States.
Some of the money is likely coming out of taxpayer pockets.
Marxist Party for Socialism and Liberation, which has ties to the Chinese Communist Party, is said to be behind some of the protests, according to the New York Post. The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles staged a rally last Thursday to protest ICE arrests (but claims it has had nothing to do with the riots). That group got more than $46 million in federal grants in 2022 and 2023, as well as millions from California taxpayers.
