Who Has Been Spending Enormous Amounts Of Money To Equip The Protesters In Los Angeles With Brand New Riot Gear?

If the protests in Los Angeles are supposed to be peaceful, why is brand new riot gear being trucked in and given to the protesters?  And why isn’t this making front page news all over the country?  

First of all, protesters only need riot gear if riots are going to break out.  Secondly, it is becoming clear that someone purchased large quantities of riot gear in advance. 

 So who funded those purchases, and who knew that riots would erupt in Los Angeles at this specific time?  If corporate news outlets in this country were still employing real journalists, those are the types of questions that those journalists would be asking.

As Eric Daugherty has accurately pointed out, Fox News actually captured footage of “bionic shields” that normally cost 60 dollars each being handed out to rioters on the streets of Los Angeles…

This an enormous scandal.

Why aren’t more people talking about this?

According to Newsweek, the “bionic shields” were being handed out by two women as “a masked driver waited for them to unload the goods”…

TV cameras have captured boxes of “bionic shields” being distributed to protesters in Los Angeles on Monday.

Footage of the scene showed boxes of solid, full-face masks—almost akin to helmets—being handed out from the back of a pickup truck by two women while a masked driver waited for them to unload the goods.

The footage has sparked concerns among some that external agitators are facilitating riots by equipping crowds for potential clashes with the police or National Guard. However, others say the masks are safety gear, worn as a precaution after protesters were injured by rubber bullets that the authorities fired.

So where did all of these “bionic shields” suddenly come from?

Obviously, someone already had large quantities of these “bionic shields” on hand.

Needless to say, that has enormous implications.

Were these “bionic shields” purchased in advance for pre-planned protests that were scheduled to erupt this month?

We really need an answer to that question.

And as Fox anchor Elex Michaelson has pointed out, we also need to know who is funding all of this…

Fox LA anchor Elex Michaelson wrote on X, formerly Twitter: “We just saw people arrive in Downtown L.A. with truck loads of Bionic Face Shields that demonstrators quickly grabbed. It certainly seems like gear you’d wear if you’re preparing for conflict with police. Who is funding this?”

There is also concern about a Craigslist advertisement for “extremely tough, brave men” that was recently posted.  Was someone trying to recruit paid agitators?  Snopes cannot determine if the ad is connected to the riots in any way, but even they were forced to admit that the ad “was real”…

Three major organizations have come under increased scrutiny: the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, Los Angeles; the Party for Socialism and Liberation; and the Service Employees International Union. One of these groups, the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, Los Angeles, has received millions in government funding.

Citing an investigative X thread from DataRepublican, Liz says that of a “number of NGOs [that] have been implicated, foremost is Coalition for Humane Immigration Rights [of Los Angeles], or CHIRLA.”

According to DataRepublican, “$34 million of [CHIRLA’s] reported $45 million in revenue are from government grants,” meaning taxpayer dollars are being used to pay the people who are setting fire to cop cars and hurling concrete slabs at federal agents.
