The FBI has arrested the founder of a Black Lives Matter group in Atlanta on fraud and money laundering charges.

Sir Maejor Page, 32, was accused Friday of misappropriating $200,000 in donations he solicited through Facebook on behalf of Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta, Fox 5 Atlanta reported Friday.

Page was arrested in Toledo and released on bond after appearing before a judge via video. He did not immediately return messages Saturday from Fox News.

The Toledo FBI office opened an investigation last year after a cooperating witness submitted a fraud complaint against Page, whose real name is Tyree Conyers-Page, FBI agent Matthew Desorbo said in the complaint.

Page founded Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta in 2016 and this year took in more than $466,000 in donations in June, July and August, Desorbo said.

"In sum, Page has spent over $200,000 on personal items generated from donations received through BLMGA Facebook page with no identifiable purchase or expenditure for social or racial justice," he said.

And here I thought the DNC was stealing all of BLM's donations.

Wasn't that what Act Blue was all about?

Isn’t this basically the Clinton Foundation Part II?

Can’t wait until that clan is locked up.

Wakanda is a mythical African kingdom from the movie Black Panther. At one of the mayor’s press conferences to stop the rioting a rapper said “This is Wakanda. We can’t do this here.” That was the riot they almost got right when they attacked CNN headquarters.
