"So those protesters that we do see, I mean, some of it might be organic, but does strike me, it seems like a lot of them are being bused in," the Fox News host argued. "You see them at the end of these protests, actually getting back on buses."

"Are these protesters, the bulk of them, are they actually being financed from the outside?" he wondered. "And is that something that Homeland's looking at? Is the financing of how all these so-called organic protests are happening?"

"Absolutely," Homan admitted. "We know a lot of these protesters are being paid. Many have admitted to it. So, yes, there's a whole effort right now in identifying those who are funding these operations, those who fund the weapons that are being used."

"So, yeah, and they'll be held accountable too and held to the highest standards of the law," he added. "They will be prosecuted, too."

It is not illegal to fund constitutionally-protected free speech in the U.S.

1. Homan, eh? He's not quite human?

[no_hypocrisy]

2. Nah. SCOTUS ruled that money is speech.

Can’t have it both ways.

6. Even if

What he is saying is true, and it's not, I'm pretty sure there's no law against paying people to protest. How will his imaginary payers be prosecuted? What law have they broken?

7. I'm a financial backer. When I go to a protest I have to buy gas for my car

to get there. I make protest signs and buy lunch. Does that count?

8. When we take power again and, we will, your ass is going to prison. nt

10. Weapons being used?

I have not heard one incident of violent protestors, or weapons being used.

I often make sarcastic remarks at protests:
"Gee that George Soros really makes some creative signs."
or
"I haven't gotten reimbursed, from George Soros, for my poster board and markers yet."
