We've been seeing these paid rioters for almost a decade now. Why hasn't there been a sting operation to find the source?
It not Soros, it the alt-right backed by the Russians.

I've seen a lot of footage of police acting like rabid dogs, arresting everyone from peaceful protestors to reporters and camera crews. Just because there are organizations set up to offer legal aid to protestors does not mean they are specifically directing aid to rioters.
Can you cite any documentation that shows these legal organizations specifically protecting rioters?
Remember, not all protestors are paid rioters. Some of those rioters maybe trying to take advantage of a well meaning service.
“Trump’s declaration that Antifa is a domestic terrorist organization has no basis in fact or law and is merely an attempt to criminalize ordinary people who are exercising their right to protest,” said NLG Mass Defense Director Tyler Crawford. “The NLG condemns any such attempts by the government to interfere with the right of the people to have their voices heard in demanding justice for George Floyd and an end to racist police violence.”
The NLG will continue to oppose any attempts to exploit this crisis to repress political activism and social justice movements working to end to white supremacy. The Trump administration continues to ignore the ongoing injustice wrought on Black communities by institutional racism, including police brutality, in favor of seeking to physically or politically punish those who are part of anti-racist and anti-fascist movements. The NLG will continue to provide legal support to activists as they take to the streets to call for justice for George Floyd, from Minneapolis to Washington, D.C. and many other cities.

A white supremacist group linked to deadly right-wing violence in Charlottesville in 2017 used a fake Twitter account to pose as “Antifa” and incite violence during the current wave of protests against police brutality.
Twitter announced Monday that it had suspended the account, which claimed to belong to a national “Antifa” organization, and revealed that the account was created by Identity Evropa.
“Tonight’s the night, Comrades,” the message said, alongside a brown raised fist emoji. “Tonight we say '# The City' and we move into the residential areas... the white hoods.... and we take what's ours …”

It appears that the claim of white supremacists being involved in some riots are true. That certainly doesn't excuse people that follow the white supremacist agent provocateurs. Nor do i agree with trying to blame the violence on white supremacists. It does however add another level of poop to this sh!tshow.
Lots of groups seem interested in minipulating the protesters into violence. Hopefully some potential rioters read this news and decide against rioting after realizing they are being minipulated.

If what's true? I didn't say it's just white supremacists, nor do i support misguided empathy for rioters. And i have no idea what celebritys or lawyers are doing.
It's also possible some people are being bailed out who are believed to not have looted, but just got caught up in a protest and arrested when police cracked down. Idk..

Right now, I'd say that simply being present at any of these demonstrations constitutes "an action with high risk of arrest".
