Funding Anti-ICE Protests: Follow the Money

Video Description

Anti-ICE protests don’t fund themselves. In this episode of Off Air, Attorney Ron Chapman examines the funding networks, nonprofit pipelines, and political strategies driving anti-ICE protests in Minnesota, and why these movements raise serious legal questions when they cross into coordinated obstruction. This is not a debate about policy preferences. It’s a breakdown of how money moves, how organizations shield themselves, and how federal law treats interference with enforcement. Ron explains: •How nonprofits are used to finance protest movements •Why sanctuary policies collide with federal authority •How coordinated messaging and mobilization operate •What obstruction of justice looks like in practice •When RICO statutes become relevant •Why delay and election timing are part of the strategy At the end of the episode, Ron previews what’s coming next as investigations expand and multiple legal tracks begin moving simultaneously. If you want to understand how protest movements are built, and where legal liability begins — this episode is essential listening. Tune in.
