Part of the greatest secret jobs program in world history? Or just pissed off citizens?

Last week thousands gathered in Nashville outside Gov. Bill Haslam’s State of the State address to protest Donald Trump's unconstitutional travel ban on Muslims from seven countries.

Like many out-of-touch Republican lawmakers, Tennessee State Senator Paul Bailey was just sure the protesters had to be paid. He had it on good authority that they were paid!

When asked about his laughable, evidence-free “paid protesters” comment by a local news station, he doubled down.

“I do have a reliable source that had reported to me, in regards to protesters that were here on the capitol grounds Monday night, that they were being paid to be here. At this time I cannot reveal that source because of security reasons,” the Sparta, Tennessee, lawmaker told News 2 reporter Chris Bundgaard.

Ohhh…..top secret security reasons. Sure, buddy. Sure. This paid protester gig must be pretty sweet! Can anyone of our readers connect us to the secret jobs board where these millions of jobs are being listed? Is there a LinkedIn for protesting? Nevertheless, Sen. Bailey did finally release (and later deleted) this video of so-called evidence that “paid protesters” were being bused in by charter bus.
