EXC: Here’s a LONG list of groups funded by Mark Zuckerberg that are actively sabotaging the Trump presidency through lawfare, ICE raid interference, lobbying, and mass protest.
Funds comes from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative or Forward US (founded by Zuck in 2013).
🧵🧵🧵
Zuckerberg ran to the @NYTimes for cover after I exposed his ties to nonprofits bankrolling lawsuits against President Trump.
You thought this would intimidate me?
It proves I hit a nerve.
1) CASA is currently suing the Trump administration over their Birthright Citizenship Executive Order.
CASA also has an active tip hotline to dox ICE raids and agents.
They’ve received at least $250,000 from Forward US.
2) Forward US has donated to Make The Road States, which published a “Deportation Defense Manual,” instructing illegal aliens how to avoid ICE raids.
This includes instructing them to lie to ICE agents and law enforcement.
The group is also suing Trump over mass deportations.
3) Forward US has donated to VoteVets Action Fund, an organization the actively opposed and campaigned against the nomination of @PeteHegseth.
They also put out ads attacking Trump’s spending freeze and smeared his immigration crackdown.
4) CZI donated at least $500,000 to Common Justice, a far-left group pledging to “resist POTUS’s efforts to criminalize immigration.”
Common Justice is also part of Protect Democracy, the leading coalition of left-wing groups suing Trump.
5) The Obama alum hotbed think tank - the Center for American Progress - is currently lobbying Congress to “defend America against Trump’s Power Grab” and mobilizing academics and activists to achieve this.
CAP belongs to Democracy Forward, the leading legal organization of left-wing groups suing Trump.
6) CZI has given $550,000 to the Immigrant Legal Resource Center per @capitalresearch.
This group has condemned Trump’s immigration agenda, pledging to “continue to work to defeat Trump’s immigration enforcement priorities.”
7) CZI has given $200,000 to American Immigration Council, an open borders advocacy group that has criticized Trump’s immigration crackdown as “propaganda” and “fearmongering.”
They’ve pledged to fight all his Executive Orders.
8) MoveOn, a notorious far-left organizing group, is gathering activists to oppose Trump via mass demonstrations, petitions, and calls to lawmakers.
They were a key 2016 Resistance organization.
9) House Majority Forward, which has received $150,000 from Forward US, has cut several anti-Trump ads airing across national media.
10) LUCHA, another Forward US grant recipient, has pledged to “never cede ground” or “back down” against the Trump presidency and their immigration agenda.
11) CZI also supported the Black Alliance for Just Immigration, which opposed the Laken Riley Act claiming it was “anti-black.”
12) CZI has repeatedly given six-figure grants to Haitian Bridge Alliance, which opposed the Laken Riley Act, TPS termination for Venezuelans, and using Gitmo to detain illegal aliens.
13) Radical immigration activist group America’s Voice has received $200,000 from Forward US while lobbying against Trump’s “enforcement” of immigration law and attacking his policies as “harmful.”
14) The Justice Action Center has pledged to fight Trump in court over immigration restrictions and has received grants from Forward US.
15) The Latin American Association, a Forward US grant recipient, is helping illegal aliens avoid deportation.
16) United We Dream is running several pressure campaigns against lawmakers to ensure they oppose Trump's immigration agenda and is threatening lawsuits.
So, yet again, the @nytimes is wrong.
Would you like to update this story @teddyschleifer?
@nytimes @teddyschleifer Also, they're deleting grants from the CZI website!
MASSIVE attempted coverup underway.
@nytimes @teddyschleifer @threadreaderapp unroll
