The fact that every right winger with influence screams "who is paying for all of this" tells you exactly how awash in cash they all are, and how much they rely on that to keep their movement afloat.
James O'Keefe says he's never seen anything so organized as the anti-ICE movement, observers--he seems to think this term is code--everywhere he goes. Who is paying for it??? he demands to know. It's like he can't even imagine people caring for one another.

i don’t care when, maybe it’s not for years considering what seems to be the odds of elections happening dropping quickly, but every single person involved in cbp, ice, and every other federal agency involved in this fourth reich operation need to be thrown in prisons and otherwise held accountable
