FBI Is Investigating Funding Behind Violent Riots in LA

Who brought in the pallets of cinder blocks?

Who paid for the bionic face masks? The mass signage? Who is paying these protesters?

Exclusive: FBI’s Patel says bureau investigating funding behind anti-ICE riots in LA

Lawmakers say they fear foreign influence, and ideological donations fueling violence and that protesters are being paid.

As parts of Los Angeles burn under the fury of riots, there are burning questions in Washington about who instigated the protests against immigration enforcement operations and whether any funding is coming from foreign sources.

FBI Director Kash Patel told Just the News the bureau is investigating the money trail behind those organizing and promoting the demonstrations spreading across the country.

“The FBI is investigating any and all monetary connections responsible for these riots,” Patel said in a statement sent late Monday to Just the News.

After initial—and largely peaceful—demonstrations in response to several immigration raids in Los Angeles late last week, the anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) protests escalated over the weekend to include more than 1,000 rioters filmed assaulting immigration officers, burning self-driving vehicles, looting, temporarily closing down at least one city highway, and throwing concrete rocks at law enforcement officers.

The images of violent rioters waving Mexican and other foreign flags as cars burned in the background circulated the country and drew attention from the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress.

Month-old footage of Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum threatening to “mobilize” over legislative proposals to tax remittances to Mexico resurfaced in light of the protests, raising concerns about whether rhetoric from south of the border could be inflaming tensions. Sheinbaum responded to the violence on Monday, condemning it but promising Mexican government commitment to all Mexicans, “regardless of immigration status.”
Biggs: “They hate this country”

“[You] got the outside influences…the Mexican flags and all these people and the Mexican president…Sheinbaum,” Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., told the John Solomon Reports podcast on Monday. “[All] these people…they hate this country, and they want to change this country, and it’ll turn, basically, the country into a Third World hellhole.”

Biggs said that he has “no doubt” that foreign influence is driving the protests, at least in part.

“Not a doubt in my mind. Not a doubt in my mind,” he said. “I mean, even if you just take the statements of President Sheinbaum of Mexico, tacitly, she’s basically encouraging this,” Biggs continued.

Rep. Mark Harris, R-N.C., said he fears some of the protesters are being paid, and it is essential for Congress to follow that money trail.

“Well, I do think it’s important for Congress to raise those questions and do that, look into it and find out what we can,” he told Just the News. “I also think the Justice Department will play an important role in trying to see these kind of things through, because, again, these ICE agents are there simply carrying out their responsibility.”

Former FBI Executive Assistant Director Chris Piehota told Just the News that the FBI likely began looking immediately into how these violent protests were sparked. (…..more)

“What you are witnessing in California is a full-blown assault on peace, on public order, and on national sovereignty,” he said.

“Carried out by rioters bearing foreign flags with the aim of continuing a foreign invasion of our country.”

This wasn’t street violence—it was an occupation.

“We’re not going to let that happen.”

Then he tore into the root of it all.

“Millions of people were allowed to come into our country totally unchecked and unvetted by stupid people or radical left people or sick people.”

And then, without flinching:

“Open border policy, the dumbest policy yet—I would say even dumber than men playing in women’s sports.”

[Troops cheer]

“Transgender for everyone,” he added. “Even dumber than that!”

Trump then unearthed something that ignites a fire within every red-blooded American: the burning of the American flag.

“These are animals, but they proudly carry the flags of other countries. But they don't carry the American flag,” he said.

“They only burn it.”

“These are animals, but they proudly carry the flags of other countries. But they don’t carry the American flag,” he said.

“They only burn it.”

He asked a question everyone already knew the answer to.

“Did you see a lot of the flags being burned? They weren’t being burned by people from our country or from people that love our country.”

Then he delivered what felt like a vow.

“People that burn the American flag should go to jail for one year.”

He held up his finger: “One year!”

And this wasn’t just talk. According to Trump, the plan was already in motion.

“We’re going to try and get that done. We’re working with some of your senators.”

He mentioned Senator Josh Hawley and turned to others in the room.

“I think you guys—are you guys in favor of it?”

He grinned.

“Boy, would this be a bad time for them to say no.”

Then came the bombshell.

Trump dropped another charge—one aimed at the people pulling the strings behind the curtain.

As everyone suspected, Trump said this wasn’t just rage in the streets.

It was funded, well planned, and professional.

Then came the bombshell.

Trump dropped another charge—one aimed at the people pulling the strings behind the curtain.

As everyone suspected, Trump said this wasn’t just rage in the streets.

It was funded, well planned, and professional.

“They’re attempting to infiltrate and occupy federal buildings wearing armor and face shields, the best money can buy.”

“Somebody’s financing it,” he said.

“We’re going to find out through Pam Bondi and Department of Justice who it is.”

He was signaling, the DOJ is already working on the case.

“They’re already on it.”

“Who’s financing all this equipment?” he asked.

“Very professional.”

And then he doubled down on his commitment to defend the homeland:

“Under the Trump administration, this anarchy will not stand. We will not allow federal agents to be attacked, and we will not allow an American city to be invaded and conquered by a foreign enemy. And that’s what they are.”
