How can you claim something false with no evidence either way? Could it be you didn’t look well enough if at all?

An example of spin used to cover the backwash of donoring to BLM is the Tides Foundation. They are financially supporting the BLM movement with massive “donations” from people like Warren Buffet, Bill Gates and George Soros.

Her are a couple of sources from Soros:

George Soros’ Foundation to Promote Open Society: $10,259,289
George Soros’ Open Society Foundations: $12,130,241

Hard to hide numbers, but if the looking people don’t, it makes it a lot easier.

Word play. Substitute the word ‘riot’ for ‘protest’ in the title and it and the reality emerges.

This is a lie by conflation.

I would say devious. He has enough money that he can pretty well hide his involvement and make “suggestions” about things he think “should” change and his subordinates will pass it down and then their contacts will pass it even lower and then something will happen. “Wasn’t me!”

OK, he pays organizations that pay people to protest (and riot).

A distinction without a difference.

After reading the history and activities of the TIDES Foundation, it is clear to me that, it is a classic criminal operation.

The person who organized the infamous ACORN fraud had a $1 million dollar problem...and Pike at Tides paid it off.

And front and center is...TA DA...George Schwartz/Soros.

What an eyeopener. Thanks, Red.

Herr SSoro$ funnels it through enough of his own channels to provide plausible deniability. But claiming he didn’t fund it is like claiming the Hillary Clinton campaign didn’t fund the dossier.

Steele paid Russians to provide disinformation.

Steele was paid by Fusion GPS.

Fusion GPS was paid by Perkins Coie.

Perkins Coie was paid by the Clinton campaign and the DNC.

The way Herr SSoro$ funds riots is similar to tha above, only with more layers.

The claim that George Soros funded the Ferguson protests and Black Lives Matter was checked by Snopes in 2015

Snopes is even less reliable than Politi"Fact."

protest is what Black Lives Matter does.

False. Race rioting is what Black Lives Matter does.

So Herr SSoro$’s subsidiary says that Herr SSoro$ isn’t funding the riots.

And we’re supposed to believe them???
