TikToker admits to being paid $150 a day to protest Trump’s deportation policies in LA. He also claims protesters were given specific target locations—where pallets of bricks and flammable materials were conveniently waiting to help them destroy the very communities they pretended to be “protesting” for. Here's his words: "When I was out in Los Angeles protesting the ICE deportations the past few days—besides the fact that I got paid $150 a day to be there—I couldn’t help but notice this was being 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐫 than the dude I met on day one. They'd give us streets and "targets" to hit, and like clockwork, when we got there—𝐩𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐰𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐤 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐝 were just sitting there. 𝐍𝐨 𝐣𝐨𝐤𝐞. Turn a corner—𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐌—pallet of bricks. Oh, that’s convenient. Let’s trash the block. And look, y’all know me—I’m a good guy. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐈𝐂𝐄 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬. I was just there for that $150. But then I started thinking… Whoever’s behind this 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐲. And the longer we protested, the crazier things got. At first it was bricks. Later? Pallets of flammable crap. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐈 𝐬𝐚𝐰 𝐢𝐭—𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐌𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐯 𝐜𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐬 just sitting there on the ground. And that’s when it hit me: 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐦 𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠? This is bad. Really bad. It’s about to get way worse. Now, I’m not from L.A.—don’t live there—so I didn’t care much at first. But I’m still American. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐢𝐧’𝐭 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭. 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲? There are people in our own government that want us out here torching police stations… 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧? 𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐚 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞."
