There has been a lot of buzz surrounding @DOGE , USAID and the funding of NGOs.

But there is another piece of the puzzle that has gone largely unnoticed.

A deep dive into the twisted web that is the Charitable Funds, DAFs and community foundations.
🧵 (pt 1 of at least 2)

Image These Charitable Funds came to my attention as I dug into my other threads (in my highlights tab) on NGOs.
They keep popping up on the @DataRepublican funding maps.

3 in particular have really stood out- Fidelity Investment Charitable, Schwab Charitable and Vanguard Charitable. Image

Another Monster Thread .... loading... 🧵

(At the request of @dobetterdnvr )

I was asked to put some attention on the NGOs that were implicated in the Venezuelan migrant placement into the Aurora apartment complexes, and any financing ties that I could track down.

I found a pretty gnarly web
So buckle up and away we go.Image Let's start with what has been established.
1. Local NGO's were implicated in the placement of migrants (including TdA) in the apartments
2. It has been shown that Denver City Council awarded contracts to several of these NGO's for this placement. Image

I quoted this earlier with the sarcastic remark in the screenshot below.
I thought I was being flippant and snide, but then curiosity struck, and I started digging...

A big old thread🧵 Image First, I popped open the @denverwestword banner to see what was there.
Hmmm... what is this Common Ground People's collective? Image
