CNN commentator Van Jones has been pushed out of his own non-profit after a bust up in the senior ranks.

Jones was praised as an extraordinary leader and handed $100 million by Jeff Bezos for his philanthropic endeavors in 2021, but now faces the humiliation of being turned out of his own organization.

Those two woke white woolen grabbed control of that cash and paid themselves well outta that Bezos 100 million. Jones is a pain, but in being those Ivy mba banka-skanks got the scent of cash.

Well, not Ivy. Looks like one is a Bay Area socialist socialite, and the other is another self congratulating Hindu princess who gives Ted talks. They saw cash and status.
Poor Van. He trusted a bunch of woke women and found out what they rape think about the darkie.

Once a commie, always a commie con-man. Bezos got butt-f*cked out of millions of dollars. Some justice has been served.

David Horowitz’s book “Radical Son” is instructive about these hard-left ‘criminal’ fronts. The in-fighting is brutal, and there is zero honor. Jones is lucky he got out alive.

One has eyes so close set it makes me uncomfortable to look at her - it is almost as if I am hearing banjos in the distance. The other looks like Bugs Bunny’s first cousin who could eat corn on the cob through a picket fence. Allegedly..... of course...

HAH.

Certainly not the TENTH time I have seen this happen but usually it is the good people who are overthrown from their baby and the sickness smugly takes over (Project Veritas comes to mind). It is quite amusing to see one cancer attack another.

Is Van laying in bed right now, staring at the ceiling in shock while thinking ‘WHAT just happened???’ as he realizes that his entire reason for getting out of bed each day is gone? 😊

Hey Van ... the knife sticking out of your back has a big “D” engraved on it, not an “R”.

A Communist who enriches HIMSELF at the expense of others? Impossible!

Jones was on the board so he probably was unpaid but it would be interesting to see how much the Director of this non profit makes in salary since the group seems to be having financial problems.

You would be astounded to find out how much some of the heads of these non profits make for their “charity” work. I know of a a local person here who is a director for a small “feed the hungry” non profit, they make just shy of $190,000 salary plus benefits. If local hunger was solved tomorrow they would be devastated.

I keep thinking when reading things like this and seeing pictures of that hard skank Lauren Sánchez, that ole Jeff is getting a little bit of what he deserves.

Hmmmm. Maybe communists are insincere? Who knew?

I know this, they are sincere about their fantasies.
