BLM Global Network files $33 million lawsuit against group helping fund college protests
NY Post ^ | 05/9/2024 | Isabel Vincent

A progressive nonprofit 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.

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.

The Tides Foundation is just another anti-American policy group like BLM. Let them fight. Hopefully they destroy each other in the process.

Soon Robespierre will face the guillotine as the left turns on itself.

Yep sounds like popcorn time. Black Lives Matter suing to get the cash? Considering the financial irregularities of Black Lives Matter, maybe people at The Tides Foundation have second thoughts of pouring money into a black hole?

I can only laugh because the hypocritical betrayal is built into the philosophies of all the Leftist groups - getting power and their place in that power is 100% of what matters, and in that any “allies” are expendable.

The BLM outfit should not complain. They’d do the same thing if they were in the same position as the Tides foundation.

So now we know that BLM and HAMAS sympathizers/antisemites are the same funding. Shocking. Perhaps we will learn that Antifa is also part of the umbrella.

Idea probably cooked up by greedy, rich, white, democrat, leftist lawyers from both sides over a round of golf at their exclusive, whites only country club.

Ginning up a lawsuit they can drag out for a long time at hundreds of dollars an hour.

The lawyers, from both sides golfing and laughing at the millions they will make "fighting" in court.

Tides Foundation is a left-leaning donor advised fund based in the United States.[4] It was founded in San Francisco in 1976 by Drummond Pike. Tides distributes money from anonymous donors to other organizations, which are often politically progressive.[5] An affiliated group, Tides Advocacy, is a “massive progressive incubator.”[6] Tides has received substantial funding from George Soros.[7]

Now we see what is going on.
It appears as if much of the Tides Foundation is funded by rich Jews.
I wonder if they know Soros is anti Jewish?
