The reason the right thinks everyone in Minnesota is being paid to protest ICE is because of stuff like this. They won’t even sit through a movie about Melania without getting paid.
Sales of tickets to watch 'Melania' in Boston are so disastrous that they'll now pay you $50 to sit though it. From Craigslist:

Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.
Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.
