Veteran television host Bill O’Reilly said research shows that taxpayer money in California is being used to support organizations involved in organizing protests in Los Angeles, including demonstrations related to immigration issues.
During a recent segment, O’Reilly said investigators examined who is financially backing demonstrations that have taken place in Los Angeles and identified several organizations involved in organizing and coordinating the events.
“So they did some research to find out who pays for these kinds of demonstrations in Los Angeles,” O’Reilly said.
“Okay, well, the main agency is the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights. Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights.”
O’Reilly said the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, commonly known as CHIRLA, receives funding from left-leaning donors and foundations.
“This is funded by far-left people like the George Soros Open Society Foundation pours a lot of money into it, and then these people organize the protests,” O’Reilly said.
According to O’Reilly, CHIRLA is not the only organization involved.
He said the state of California also provides funding to another group that operates alongside it.
“But this isn’t the worst part about this, the state of California finances another group, okay, and it is called the LA Rapid Response Network,” O’Reilly said.
O’Reilly stated that both organizations receive taxpayer funding from the state, including CHIRLA itself.
“It also finances the state of California, the Coalition for Humane immigration rights,” he said.
“So that’s tax money going into this organization.”
O’Reilly cited specific figures from state financial records, pointing to the amount of public money allocated to CHIRLA during the most recent reported fiscal period.
“So during fiscal year ending June 30, 2023, the Organic Coalition for Humane immigration received from the state of California $34,000,000. 34 million,” O’Reilly said.
He argued that this funding means California taxpayers are indirectly financing protest activity connected to these organizations.
“So the state of California paid for those rides with tax money,” O’Reilly said.
“Hear that anywhere else?”
