🚨πŸ”₯ WHO'S BEHIND THE ANTI-ICE RIOTS IN LOS ANGELES? πŸ”₯🚨

Hundreds took to the streets this weekend: blocking roads, attacking federal officers, even burning flags. But this wasn't "spontaneous outrage."

This was organized. Funded. Coordinated.

Here’s a breakdown of the groups, the money, and the people pulling the strings.

Patience as I assemble the thread and verify information in real time πŸ‘‡πŸ§΅

A number of NGOs have been implicated in this. Foremost is Coalition for Humane Immigration Rights or CHIRLA, and the photos of signs show they were printed by PSLWEB / Party for Socialism and Liberation.

CHIRLA has the EIN of 954421521. Most of its private funding appears to be from DAFs, which are the hardest to trace. However 34 million of its reported 45 million in revenue are from government grants.

In their most recent year, CHIRLA jumped from 12 million to 34 million in government grants. Nice!

However, this is probably from CA - "only" 450K in federal grants.

These are their two federal grants, both completed. Now moving onto PSLWeb...

The group which printed the signs for protests, Party for Socialism and Liberation, is not a nonprofit - they are a literal Communist party.

Finding financials is tricky, but I did find a Wiki reference to "ANSWER Coalition"

@DataRepublican
ANSWER Coalition is mentioned on their Wikipedia page to have significant financial overlap.

It is tough to find backings on either group, as they do not have a nonprofit associated with them. Both claim to be funded entirely by members. (πŸ„πŸ’©)

However, I did find a NY Post article claiming that both are funded by billionaire socialist Neville Singer.

Neville Singham - sorry. Real nice guy. Activist who became a billionaire by pushing Chinese propaganda worldwide.

Singham also financed the People's Forum - giving it over 20 million dollars. All 3 Singham-financed organizations were also heavily involved in the Columbia protests.

The SEIU-CA president got arrested. I researched SEIU's financials, but they are mostly dues-backed.

Moving onto other organizations: it appears as though the Million Voters Project was involved in promoting the project.

Here's the magical D-word... Democracy ... on the MVP website.

Million Voters Project gets their funding from a variety of grants, no taxpayer funding.

That's the end of the deep search. Overall, my guess is if we had to finger a culprit behind all this - it's Neville Singham. He will be fertile ground in my feed in the coming days.

I'm going to wrap up the thread here. Thanks for following.

Just who is Neville Singham?

One last word: I normally don't pass on "gossip", but a credible source leaked to me that Qatar is heavily involved.

However, I haven't made that particular connection yet.
