Sinclair station nightly newscast and caught the big report that the FBI is investigating the "source of the funding" for the Minneapolis protests. It should come as no surprise that the FBI "source" now says that George Soros is providing the money for the protests.
So that's the direction of the FBI "investigation" about Minneapolis. Concoct the standard boogeyman as being responsible for the protests. Not the fact that the residents are enraged by the cold blooded murder of Renee Good. So the GQP/MAGA nutcase spin for the week on cable news and hate radio is all set to go.

.to show up and cheer for the orange buffoon, so they feel compelled to insist that lefty protestors must be paid. Its a predictable dynamic.

(25,555 posts)If anyone was funding the protesters, theyd be have better whistles. It just cant be that we, the people, are fed up and dont want to live under TSFs thumb and were not backing down

Not even gas money, dammit. Hey George, where's my protest fee??? He owes all 10,000 of us, not just me!
But seriously, Piggy. We hate your guts so much that we'll protest for absolutely free in the rain, snow, sleet, dark of night, and amid locusts, gnats, mosquitoes, bears and wolves. Fuck you very much, and for free too.
