Republican senator threatens probe into L.A. immigrant advocates, saying they are "bankrolling" unrest
Briefly

Senator Josh Hawley has threatened an investigation into the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA), alleging the organization is financially supporting unlawful protests. Hawley’s accusations come as part of a broader investigation of NGOs linked to the Biden-Harris administration's immigration policies. CHIRLA's leader Angelica Salas strongly denies these claims, stating they detract from the real issues faced by immigrants under current policies. She insisted that the group has a history of peaceful activism and was targeted to undermine support for immigrants' rights.
This is trying to take away the spotlight from the pain and suffering that this administration is causing; I refuse to make it about anybody else but them.
Bankrolling civil unrest is not protected speech. It is aiding and abetting criminal conduct. Accordingly, you must immediately cease and desist.
