Left-wing billionaires fund the anti-ICE and anti-Trump protests

The usual left-wing billionaires, with ties to China, are paying protesters to cause chaos in American cities and organise insurrection against Trump, under the pretext of protecting illegal immigrants.

The anti-ICE protests in Minnesota may appear to the complacent left-wing press as 'popular' initiatives organised by concerned citizens, but in reality, they are financed by huge sums of money from billionaires who cannot accept the Democrats' defeat last year, do not recognise Trump's victory, and do not accept the democratic vote. The New York Post and Breitbart, along with several professional organisations and investigative think tanks, have exposed the true nature of the anti-democratic violence and protests taking place. Last Friday, a march called 'ICE Out' mobilised around 15,000 left-wing activists and politicians in Minneapolis. They shouted slogans such as 'ICE out now' and called for an end to federal immigration enforcement operations in the city. In Italy, extremist protesters shouted the same slogans in response to ICE's presence to ensure the security of US authorities at the Winter Olympics.

Beyond the romantic narratives, the reality is that, once again, anti-Trump marches are being organised on radical forums and encrypted messaging apps, supported by radical left-wing billionaires' funds. According to Scott Walter, president of the Capital Research Centre, a social and political research think tank, the financial support network for the violent marches comes from Neville Singham, but he is not acting alone. These are the “People's Forum” and the “Party for Socialism and Liberation”, both of which are funded by Singham, a former Chinese software executive. These groups promoted the 'ICE Out' protests, along with another group called '50501', via social media. Singham has become one of the main financiers of left-wing activist networks, including protests in Minnesota and other cities, all of which are coordinated from his company's headquarters in Shanghai.

Congress is investigating whether this constitutes foreign influence or a violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act, and is examining the links between his network and the Chinese Communist Party's propaganda efforts. Meanwhile, the American Accountability Foundation has identified nearly two dozen Chinese academics working in elite US schools and laboratories who have 'close ties to military research in China and/or clear ties to the Chinese Communist Party' and who, they argue, should be expelled from the United States.

A few days ago in the New York Post, Ian Oxnevad, a senior fellow for foreign affairs at the National Association of Scholars, made an interesting statement: "Have you noticed that there are no pro-Palestinian and anti-ICE protests happening at the same time? If it were a spontaneous phenomenon, we would see more protests at the same time, but that is not the case... There are no mass protests like this against what is happening in Iran... These are always very specific causes that are essentially anti-Western.' Friday's protest in Minneapolis was organised by the ‘50501’ network, which lists the pro-abortion organisation ‘Voices of Florida,’ funded by the Ford Foundation and led by Black and queer people, as well as Bernie Sanders' former ‘Political Revolution’ PAC, among its non-profit ‘partners’ on its website.

Other prominent left-wing activist groups that have been present in Minnesota since the massive protests began late last year include the 'Indivisible' network, which is funded by George Soros' 'Open Society Foundation', the 'Sunrise Movement', and 'Unidos Minnesota'.

Examining tax returns and other documents last spring, the New York Post revealed that, since 2016, the Sunrise Movement had received at least $2 million from funders of the Arabella network, a progressive organisation based in Washington, D.C. The Arabella network's "dark money" donations have consistently funded Democrats, pro-abortion organisations, and LGBT groups. Indivisible received £107,000 from the Arabella network, £6.5 million from 90-year-old Swiss billionaire Hansjörg Wyss, and £7.6 million from the Open Society Foundation. The group '50501', short for 'Fifty States, Fifty Protests, One Day', was founded shortly after Trump's second inauguration in January 2025. Little is known about it, except that it is said to be organised by an anonymous Reddit user called u/Evolved_Fungi. 50501 has gained traction on social media thanks to its plan to organise nationwide demonstrations to ‘fight fascism’ during Trump's first three weeks in the White House. The identity and nationality of the u/Evolved_Fungi account leader and organiser of '50501' remain unknown. In a rare interview with Newsweek in February 2025, the person boasted of having a degree in marketing and engineering and of loving to read psychology books. It is important to recognise that we are not dealing with just a few troublemakers, but with something much more serious.
