Diamond & Silk are literally being paid by well known white supremacist Paul Nehlen.

It seems pro-Trump vloggers Lynnette Hardaway and Rochelle Richardson (AKA Diamond & Silk) might’ve committed perjury at least once, possibly twice during their testimony before the House Judiciary Committee today.
The dynamic duo are on Capitol Hill for a hearing on their claims that Facebook is censoring their content because of their conservative beliefs. Despite all the questions surrounding the vloggers’ allegations, they stuck to their guns as the proceeding got underway.
The duo’s claim has come under scrutiny since their viewership data shows no sign of any suppression to the point that they were effectively banned from the social media platform. More than that, even though Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg acknowledged that his website made an “enforcement error” regarding their official page, recent events and pieces of evidence have sown doubt regarding their claims of censorship.
Later in the hearing, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) asked the two if they ever received money from the Trump campaign. Here’s their answer under oath:
There’s a slight problem: according to documents the Trump campaign filled with the Federal Election Commission, Diamond & Silk were paid $1,274.94 in November of 2016 for “field consulting.”
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) confronted the duo their denial of the payment — which you can watch above.
CBS News reporter Katie Watson provides a play-by-play of their response:

Charge them with perjury!!!!!!!!
Refer to your course notes.
Gotta get these uppity blacks back on the plantation.
I am very sorry my comments on Trump U triggered you...would you like some ice for your vagina?
Yes, why wouldn't Democrats treat grifters and liars like second coming of MLK? Black people should not be treated differently unless they are conservative.
On a side note, why do conservative keep talking about plantations without remembering it was them who favored it and still do.
Please tell us more about Trump University. I'm dying for some new information.
