๐จ๐ฅ WHO'S BEHIND THE ANTI-ICE RIOTS IN LOS ANGELES? ๐ฅ๐จ
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.
Hereโs 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 ๐๐งต
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"
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. (๐๐ฉ)
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.

๐น In college, Barack Obama helped co-found a local chapter of CISPES (Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador), a U.S. group that supported the FMLN, a Marxist guerrilla front fighting the U.S.-backed Salvadoran government.
๐น CISPES often worked alongside the Nicaragua Network, which championed the Sandinista revolution in Nicaragua. (U.S. intelligence later confirmed that the Sandinistas supplied El Salvadorโs rebels with weapons and training.)
๐น As the solidarity scene matured:
โข 1985: Nicaragua Network + Detroit CISPES โก๏ธ merge โ CASC (Central America Solidarity Committee)
โข 1993: CASC + MICAH โก๏ธ merge โ OSCA (Organization in Solidarity with Central America)
โข 1998: Former Nicaragua Network activists incorporate the Alliance for Global Justice (AFGJ), folding their old network inside as a project.
Today AFGJ still operates as a left-wing umbrella group ... the same lineage that began with 1980s โsolidarityโ campaigns.
So yesโฆ the activist ecosystem that once rallied for Marxist guerrillas in Central America evolved, merged, and rebranded, and figures like Obama (via early CISPES work) and later Bill Ayers (through AFGJ-linked circles) both trace lines back into that same network.
CISPES (of which Obama founded a local chapter, according to David Garrow) was found to have furnished funds to Marxist rebels in El Salvador, in possible violation of the Firearms Control Act.
They also met with FMLN, potentially violating FARA.
The report goes onto detail other allegations that weren't substantiated, such as CISPES taking direction from foreign governments on when and where to demonstrate.
I found a declassified CIA document that states that Farid Handal, brother of the Salvadoran Communist leader, traveled to meet with representatives of Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) to create these solidarity networks in the USA -- including CISPES.
๐งต THREAD: Meet the Organizers Behind No Kings protest: Indivisibleโs Leah Greenberg & Ezra Levin ๐บ๐ธ
Taking a break from book writing for this...
This week, the movement that started with a Google Doc... Indivisible... is back in the streets. โ Founded by former congressional staffers Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin and funded by George Soros' Open Society network, Indivisible has grown from a viral guide into one of the most powerful grassroots networks in the U.S.
Now, theyโre leading NoKings, a nationwide push to remind America that democracy means no one is above the law. ๐โ
This thread dives into who Greenberg and Levin are, how Indivisible rose to prominence, and whatโs really behind the โNo Kingsโ movement.
As always, patience as I pull the thread together in real time.
๐
When you go to the NoKings website, you'll find over a hundred partners listed, many of them familiar and many Soros-backed. They include big names closely tied to the DNC such as Marc Elias' Democracy Forward.
Greenberg and Levin are co-founders of Indivisible. Other than donor-advised funds, their backing primarily comes from Open Society and Fund for a Better Future. The latter is a shadowy nonprofit backed by Sergey Brin and played a key role in the infamous "Build Back Better" campaign of 2020.
Does anyone know how the SPLC is funded? They report receiving over $100MM in contributions each year, but CauseIQ shows they receive few large grants from other nonprofits; they report only 26MM and that's over multiple years. That's unusual. (And, no, they don't report receiving government money.)
๐งต THREAD: Richard Grenell: praising "diplomacy" with Maduro, Chevron, and the pro-Venezuelan MAGA faction ๐ป๐ช
Just last week, Grenell declared:
"I've sat across from Nicolรกs Maduro... I believe we can still have a deal. I believe in diplomacy. I believe in avoiding war."
Maduro is a Communist tyrant who has upended hundreds of thousands of lives, Venezuela is the self-declared capital of Antifa, and serves as the Western hemisphere proxy for Chinese and Iranian interests.
Why is President Trump's special envoy talking like this on stage in Asunciรณn? ๐ณ๏ธ๐
The answer goes a lot deeper and darker than you'd think.
This might be my most controversial thread yet... but it involves a whole lot of MAGA players who are invested in maintaining the status quo with Venezuela, mostly through Chevron oil licenses.
For a long time, Chevron has had its tentacles on MAGA. Back on May 6th, a coordinated messaging campaign went up among multiple mega-influencers. Two days after that, one of the most famous MAGA influencers wrote her first op-ed concerning Chevron and China messaging. I redact the name because I don't want to make it about her.
This early May timing coincided with the threat to shut down Chevron leases on May 27.
Earlier this year, Harry Sargeant III was identified as the one who opened up communications between Maduro and Grenell in an attempt to create an "oil-for-migrants" deal. His
@MrAndyNgo This might be the first case of "Democracy Theory" radicalizing a killer (as opposed to the usual trans/antifa motives). He followed all the democracy folks. Posted a lot about saving democracy.
