There clearly was no reason for the mass riots taking place around the country after the death of the individual at the hands of the police in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Everyone who saw the police brutality was appalled and outraged at the sight of the policeman kneeling on the victims neck for an incredibly long period of time. The man died. But nothing warrants the wholesale destruction of property and and riots around the US since that event.
In Portland, Oregon, Antifa showed up as was expected:
In Boston more masked rioters:
The same in Washington DC where Antifa set a church on fire and attacked the people’s house – the White House:
In Santa Monica, Antifa set a police car on fire and chased the police away:
In LA rioters vandalized a Jewish synagogue and then came back later in the night to burn it down:
In Minnesota, the Governor’s daughter and Ilhan Omar’s daughter were both sharing Intel with rioters:
In New York City, the mayor’s daughter is involved in the protests:
Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi refused to condemn the looters and rioters, she just attacked President Trump:
Democrat Presidential candidate Joe Biden looked weak while meeting with members of Black Lives Matter (another domestic group involved in the riots):
At Least 13 Joe Biden Staffers Donate to Group Supporting Violent Minnesota Looters and Rioters
We were the first to report that BLM was raising money using ActBlue as a resource. The Daily Caller confirmed this and reported that BLM is not a non-profit organization and nonprofit organization (Thousand Currents) said it provides fiduciary oversight, financial management, and other administrative services to BLM.
Candice Owen reported on the BLM – ActBlue relationship and was targeted by a bogus fact-checker. Tom Fitton from Judicial Watch jumped in and stated that the findings confirmed what we and Candice Owen reported:
Transparency? So if you want to make a tax-deductible charitable donation directly to Black Lives Matter, you can't. You donate to Act Blue Charities. Act Blue Charities sends this money, allegedly, to another charity, Thousand Currents, which runs BLM as a "fiscal sponsorship."

Thousand Currents is apparently a non-profit organization and Susan Rosenberg serves on its Board as reported by Wikipedia (note the link to Thousand Currents no longer works).
What’s the big deal? Susan Rosenberg was a member of the Weather Underground terrorist group, which included Obama friend Bill Ayers. In January of 2001, the New York Times reported that many politicians, including Democrat Chuck Schumer, were critical of a pardon President Clinton gave to her on his last day in office:
An unusual combination of New York political and law enforcement leaders have condemned former President Bill Clinton’s pardon of Susan L. Rosenberg, a one-time member of the Weather Underground terrorist group who was charged in the notorious 1981 Brink’s robbery in Rockland County that left a guard and two police officers dead.
Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, a Republican, and United States Senator Charles E. Schumer, a Democrat, were among those who criticized the pardon, as did Bernard B. Kerik, New York City’s police commissioner, and David Trois, a Rockland County police union official.
Here is a related tweet about Rosenberg:

Who is Susan Rosenberg? She should NOT be allowed anywhere near a charity. What do public filings about Thousand Currents reveal concerning her background?— Charles Ortel (@CharlesOrtel) June 23, 2020
So contributions to BLM are funneled through ActBlue, the major resource for Democrat donations, and then funneled to an organization ran by a member of the Weather Underground terrorist group.
Hat tips Bob, Charles Ortel
Her Africans in the Diaspora (AiD) looks to be linked with the pan-African movement in Boston: The Boston African Diaspora Roundtable that took place on April 27th brought together key diaspora activists, scholars, and policy experts for collaborative discussion, policy action and research relating to diaspora engagement. The event sought to generate new policy-oriented knowledge about diaspora organizational needs. The African diaspora has potential to be a progressive and integrative global force particularly at the current historical moment. The forum built on the agenda of the African Union to create broader global possibilities for sustainable dialogue, productive partnerships, and Pan-Africanist solidarity to advance Africa and its diaspora. The event was co-organized by Constituency for Africa, African Studies Center at Boston University, and Global Health Catalyst. . .The Diaspora Roundtable was introduced by its co-organizers Mr. Melvin Foote (Constituency for Africa), Dr. Wilfred Ngwa (Global Health Catalyst), and Dr. Daivi Rodima-Taylor (African Studies Center Diaspora Studies Initiative, BU) and attended by representatives of approximately 40 diaspora-related organizations and institutions. The keynote speeches by Ambassador Dr. Arikana Chihombori Quao, the African Union Permanent Representative to the United States, and Dr. Julius Garvey, the son of famed Pan-African leader Marcus Garvey, sent a powerful message of cooperation and unity and were instrumental in catalyzing productive discussions and the sharing of important strategic ideas around the topics of diaspora engagement. . .Prof. Wilfred Ngwa of Harvard Medical School highlighted the unique opportunities for diaspora collaboration and growth that were inspired by this gathering of diverse diaspora actors: The Swahili word Harambee, meaning all pull together, appropriately captures the historic meeting that took place at Harvard on April 27, 2017. We had the African Union Ambassador to the USA, Dr. Arikana Chihombori, representing the neo-diaspora; we had CFA president Melvin Foote, representing the African American Diaspora, we had Dr. Julius Garvey, son of legend Marcus Garvey representing the Diaspora from the Caribbean and elsewhere; and then we had Dr. Daivi Rodima-Taylor who is a venerable African at heart representing all those who may not appear African at first sight, but who champion the cause for a better Africa each day with all their heart and soul. For the first time, Africans in diaspora, regardless of their history, or background, or skin-color, pulled together as one: Africans in Diaspora (AiD) united for Africa. I look forward to the policy recommendations from this meeting, and future meetings which will continue to grow and welcome participation from the diaspora for high impact on the ground in Africa. The Boston African Diaspora Engagement Roundtable also set the tone for the highly successful Global Health Catalyst Summit from April 28-30, which included ministers of health from Africa, the new Director of the African Center for Disease Control (CDC) and many leaders from African Institutions who would benefit directly from AiD united for Africa, for sustainable impact in healthcare and development of local African communities.: Boston Africa Diaspora Roundtable
