The Squad is spending this kind of money on protection because they don't want to end up like Paul Pelosi, or any of the other people Donald Trump has personally attacked and threatened.
How much money are taxpayers spending to protect the judges, members of the grand jury, jury pools, and prosecutors and their staff from Donald Trump's loyal thugs.
When you allow a man to go around radicalizing violent, mentally unstable cult members, and keeping them in a perpetual state of fear and rage, to continually lash out at his "enemies", his targets need protection.
Trump cannot be sent to jail fast enough.
