- π‘ The IRS is investigating financial fraud and is now informing banks that worked with fraudsters that they will be examining records to trace the money trail.
- π― A key concern is whether any of the fraudulent funds went to Ilhan Omar and her husband, which could lead to significant trouble for them.
Funding of Protest Networks
- π A report revealed that over $60 million has been channeled to approximately 14 groups involved in protests, including the ACLU and Take Action Minnesota.
- π° This funding originates from large NGO networks such as the Soros network, Arabella funding network, and Neville Roy Singum funding network, among others.
- π¦ These massive non-profits, with billions to spend, are accused of coordinating protest and riot activities.
Neville Roy Singum's Network and China Connections
- π The Neville Roy Singum network operates through US-based nonprofits, shell companies, and donor-advised funds, exploiting tax-exempt status to hide funding sources.
- π¨π³ Singum has reportedly donated at least $65 million to pro-Beijing groups since 2020, with his network distributing funds globally, primarily to US political groups.
- β οΈ This network is also alleged to have provided funds for legal support to groups like the ACLU and CARE in Minneapolis.
State Department Investigation and Concerns
- π The State Department is actively investigating these groups, with Under Secretary Sarah Rogers confirming a focus on organizations linked to Chinese influence operations.
- π Groups like Code Pink, run by Singum's wife, are highlighted for allegedly denigrating the US and whitewashing Marxist regimes while receiving funds connected to the Chinese Communist Party.
- π·πΊ The report contrasts the focus on Russia collusion with the alleged unchecked influence of China through far-left activist organizations and social media campaigns.
Political Accountability and Activism
- β οΈ Senator Ron Johnson criticized Representative Keith Ellison for encouraging people to put themselves in harm's way, leading to two deaths, and for allegedly exploiting these tragedies.
- π§ The report suggests that figures like Ellison may have known about the funding sources but chose to look the other way.
- π° Reporting from outlets like the New York Times and Daily Beast has also shed light on Neville Singman's network and the funding of left-wing protests and influence campaigns.
