Fifth Column
Biggest Biden Donors Also Support the Hamas Youth
[Politico] President Joe Biden has been dogged for months by pro-Palestinian protesters calling him "Genocide Joe" — but some of the groups behind the demonstrations receive financial backing from philanthropists pushing hard for his reelection.

The donors include some of the biggest names in Democratic circles: Gates, Soros, Rockefeller and Pritzker, according to a POLITICO analysis.

Two of the main organizers behind protests at Columbia University and on other campuses are Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow. Both are supported by the Tides Foundation, which is seeded by Democratic megadonor George Soros as well as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and it in turn supports numerous small nonprofits that work for social change. (Gates did not return a request for comment, and Soros declined to comment.)

Another notable Democratic donor whose philanthropy has helped fund the protest movement is David Rockefeller Jr., who sits on the board of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund. In 2022, the fund gave $300,000 to the Tides Foundation; according to nonprofit tax forms, Tides has given nearly $500,000 over the past five years to Jewish Voice for Peace, which explicitly describes itself as anti-Zionist.

Several other groups involved in pro-Palestinian protests are backed by a foundation funded by Susan and Nick Pritzker, heir to the Hyatt Hotel empire — and supporters of Biden and numerous Democratic campaigns, including $6,600 to the Biden Victory Fund a few months ago and more than $300,000 during the 2020 campaign.

#3  Was there ever a doubt Soros and Gates were not involved. They send millions to anti american organizations. All those green tents, sheets of plywood, and signs came from somewhere... Remember the pallets of bricks that just showed up at the BLM protests were from a SOROS owned company, delivered without invoice...

Government Corruption
Did Fani Willis Indict The ‘Fulton 19' Defendants Without Proper Jurisdiction?
[Federalist] If a court rules that she did, her entire case crumbles and would leave her and Fulton County vulnerable to a multimillion-dollar lawsuit. A motion filed in the Fulton County "election interference" case against Donald Trump and 18 codefendants, also known as "The Fulton 19," hasn’t garnered much attention but has the potential to upend the entire case.

Meet Harrison Floyd. He fought for his country as a marine, interned at the Heritage Foundation, was a senior staff member on President Trump’s 2020 campaign, and led a nationwide effort known as "Black Voices for Trump." He is also one of the defendants indicted last year, along with President Trump, by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. Floyd was charged with a violation of Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) statute, "solicitation of false statements and writings," and "influencing a witness," stemming from contact he had with Fulton County temporary election worker Ruby Freeman.

In December of 2020, Floyd heard Freeman was seeking assistance. Unable to go to Atlanta himself, Floyd asked publicist Trevian Kutti, who at the time was working for Sen. David Purdue’s reelection campaign, to speak with Freeman. Following allegations that Freeman had introduced suitcases of illegal ballots and committed other acts of election fraud, she became wary of strangers. So when Kutti and Garrison Douglas, director of communications for the Georgia Republican Party, came to her home, she called the Cobb County police and asked them to arrange a meeting. The Georgia Record reports that on the 911 call, and in person with the police present, Freeman "asked for the meeting to see what help [Kutti] could provide to her, to clear her name, to report on the coverup by the GA SOS [Georgia Secretary of State] and FBI, and to blow the whistle on improper ballot scanning and improper use of USB Ports by Fulton County election employees that occurred in and after the 2020 elections."

IF we can have an honest election, Nov. 5th.

The results surely will have these Leftist Conspirators fleeing. Knowing they will be brought to justice for their treasonous and subversive acts. Plus a truck load of Felony criminal violations sure to be handed out.

#4  Trump says Biden is running a ‘Gestapo’ administration.

#5  "Trump’s unfounded comparison to Nazi-era tactics..."

Unfounded? The author, Mark Davis ought to read "Defying Hitler" by Sebastin Hafner if he thinks Trump's comment is unfounded. Hafner's book is a "how to book" about how Hitler took over the apparatus of the state and replaced it with tyranny. There are chilling parallels for today. Also read something about the horrors of the Holocaust created by the Nazi regime...t would be particulary appropriate as Holocaust Remembrance Day was May 6th.

#6  ^ "Chilling parallels" indeed.
