there are allegations—but no verified proof yet—that some individuals involved in recent street protests or riots in Los Angeles were paid to participate. Here's what we know so far:


Were Protesters Paid?

Allegations:

  • Senator Josh Hawley and some media outlets have claimed that NGOs or political groups may have funded or incentivized individuals to show up at protests.

  • Some witnesses report seeing people offering stipends or reimbursements for transportation, food, or attendance.

  • Social media posts and Telegram channels reportedly circulated calls to join protests “with support provided,” including bail funds, food, and gear.

BUT: No official investigations or arrests have confirmed payments to rioters or protestors purely for violent participation.


?‍? What’s Being Investigated

Inquiry Focus
Congressional Hearings (2025) Whether tax-exempt groups or foreign-linked funders (like Neville Roy Singham) financed unrest
IRS & DOJ Investigations If any 501(c)(3) groups misused funds to pay protestors or incite violence

Important Distinction:

  • Paying for activism (e.g., covering travel, housing, or meals for volunteers) is common and not illegal.

  • Paying people to commit illegal acts (like rioting or assault) is criminal—but so far, there's no public evidence directly tying payments to violent behavior in LA.


Summary:

  • ? There are claims and ongoing investigations into payments to protestors.

  • No confirmed proof (as of June 2025) that people were directly paid to riot.

  • ?‍? Ongoing Senate and IRS probes may clarify this in coming weeks.
