BLM Global Network files $33 million lawsuit against group helping fund college protests
A progressive non-profit that has been shelling out cash to anti-Israel protest groups is being sued by Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation for fraud and withholding more than $33 million in donations, a bombshell lawsuit claims. NY Post reporter Isabel Vincent shares this story.
Tides Foundation, which has managed hundreds of millions in donations for progressive groups since it was founded in 1976, has “refused to honor its promises and continues to commandeer BLMGNF’s donations,” according to the 285-page lawsuit filed in California Superior Court, Los Angeles County, on Monday.
Instead, Tides doled out an undisclosed amount of donations to a radical BLM breakaway group run by anti-police activist Melina Abdullah — who lost a “frivolous” lawsuit against BLMGNF — according to court papers and an attorney for BLMGNF.
Tides, a Los Angeles and San Francisco-based non-profit, acts as a fiscal sponsor — essentially, a clearing house that collects donations for groups that may not have 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status.
