Most organizations have an arc that rises and falls, and the fall begins with bloat, then political activism (due to any sizable organizations delusions of influence, political power is too alluring even if the cause has nothing to do with politics), then outright financial corruption, then finally descent into irrelevance or criminal demise, or both.

But since BLM as an organization didn’t even have a proper cause, and was taking a lot of money from sources that wanted nothing more than to sow discord, they skipped straight from political power to the corruption part of the arc and quickly into demise.

BLM is world-class race-hustling poverty pimps.

Not to worry.

Some Lefty billionaire is waiting to bail them out.

BLM is too valuable as a tool of the Marxists to be left in the shed.

They will be made solvent (barely) for use at another time.

The board is now led by nonprofit adviser Cicley Gay, who has filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy three times since 2005.

Gay was ordered by a court to attend financial management lessons, and at the time of her appointment in April 2022 had more than $120,000 in unpaid debt.

Some folks loot small, and end up with a few hair extensions or a big screen TV.
Some folks loot large, and end up with millions.

In February 2022 the group stopped online fundraising following a demand by the California attorney general tho show where millions of dollars in donations received in 2020 went.


Well there is the problem reducing donations . It is someone elses fault.

There’ll be as much investigation as there is for Hunter Biden’s laptop.

Money is not surprisingly gone.

End of story.

Paul Cullors was employed as the head of the security team at the $6 million Los Angeles mansion (pictured) bought with charity donations

BLM Headquarters - $6 Million doesn't go as far as it used to

If it costs $1.6 Million to protect that shack maybe, they should consider moving to a neighborhood where security is provided by the HOA.

BLM was grifted by the founder, who bought multiple homes and lots of expensive trinkets. This is the cause of their insolvency.

The theme song to The Jeffersons, Movin On Up, keeps ringing through my mind here. Somebody should do a parody song entitled Movin Back Down. With the right lyrics edit, it could be hilarious.

BLM was formed by Obama/Holder, with the tacit protection of the DOJ/FBI, to promote chaos and push political narratives - particularly, Federal control of 3000+ local, independent US police forces.

In sum, they were Obama’s red guards or brownshirts

They are no longer useful, so they are being allowed to wither, and their “founders” to finish looting the protection money they rec’d from corporations.

A textbook case of the folly of "reparations" on a small scale. You can give an idiot millions of dollars and he is still an idiot.

Distributing tax-payer funded "reparations" to people based solely on melanin content will result in all of that money winding up in the hands of the owners of luxury car dealerships, jewelry stores and other "symbols of success" in the 'hood'.

The end result will be that the recipients end up broke and will complain that no one taught them how to manage money, so we need a new round of payouts which will go on into perpetuity. Once that "reparations" pandora's box is opened, it will never be closed.

The rich suburban white kids still have the yard signs in their parent’s front yards though.
