Claiming to be America’s second-largest private foundation, the Ford Foundation has poured almost $2 billion into groups active in “disrupting systems to advance social justice,” according to its grant database.
The Ford Foundation boasts key members of the Joe Biden and Kamala Harris campaign as alumni executives. Harris’s sister and ex-campaign chairwoman Maya Harris served as the Ford foundation’s vice president alongside Biden’s now senior advisor, Cristóbal Alex, who served as its program director during the Obama presidency.
Some of Obama’s top staffers are now Ford Foundation’s top staffers. Taara Rangarajan, now Ford’s chief of staff, served as Obama’s national security advisor from 2013-2016. Before that, she served as a special assistant to Susan Rice during the Benghazi affair. Another Ford exec, Xavier de Souza Briggs, served as President Obama’s associate director of the Office of Management and Budget.
During the final months of the Obama presidency, Ford Foundation gave prominent leaders of the communist Workers World Party (WWP) funding to form the Southern Vision Alliance (SVA), a collective of activists that includes members of the group raining down terror in Charlotte last week at the RNC convention.
Shortly after getting $200,000 from the Ford Foundation in 2016, these activists performed one of the first violent and illegal teardowns of a historic monument in the country, in Durham, North Carolina. After the activists were arrested and charged for rioting and property damage, they are being defended in court, for free, by lawyers from another Ford grantee: the Southern Coalition for Social Justice.
Flush with Ford Foundation cash, these activists continue to promote property destruction and violence during demonstrations.
The Ford Foundation likes what it sees in the alleged criminal gang. This year, the wealthy nonprofit gave the group $750,000, more than tripling its inaugural donation, bringing Ford’s total contributions to SVA so far $1.2 million, according to the foundation’s website.
Marxist-Leninist groups also get Ford Foundation support. Directed by Bernie Sanders’s senior advisor Phillip Agnew, the Dream Defenders group seeks

Ruh Row. . . .
We knew they were supporting it. We just didn’t know exactly how. No doubt Soros and others are in that evil wood pile.
“Disrupting the system” is code for “burning things down and murdering people we disagree with.”

I attended a meeting once at the Ford Foundation. The VP told me how they helped set up a government in one an Africa Country. He major point was, “we did it right, it wasn’t just a bunch of old white guys.”
Ford deceived everyone by not tKing the liabs... they just turned the company over to Obama. Maybe GM and “Dodge” did take the best option (caught between a rock and a hard place) of temporary Obama control ceding 40% of the company to the Unions.
Screw Ford, too!
Nah...they just support PBS.
I’m sorry. Was not talking about Ford Foundation, but the Commie Rat Party supporting the riots. My bad

You are correct. What the hell is this deal?
