I’d rather random criminals have the money than this apikoros scum.

Two weeks ago, PJ Media covered the growing scandal of the finances of Black Lives Matter. The group had raised $90 million and spent less than $30 million on “social justice” causes. The scandal is that no one appears to be in charge of that remaining $60 million.
The Black Lives Matter board members who were supposed to be running the foundation denied they had anything to do with it. CharityWatch Executive Director Laurie Styron said that BLM was like a “giant ghost ship full of treasure drifting in the night with no captain, no discernible crew, and no clear direction.”
To the rescue comes the Bill and Hillary Clinton cavalry. The Washington Examiner reports that several Clinton associates have taken up key positions at BLM, including Democratic Party fixer Mark Elias. It was Elias who funneled money to fund Christopher Steele’s discredited anti-Trump dossier and served as Hillary’s 2016 campaign general counsel.
Elias’s newly formed law firm is reportedly located at one of BLM’s addresses and states in its short-year 2020 Form 990 that its finances are now in the care of the Elias Law Group.
“The latest filing’s addition of partisan lawyer Marc Elias confirms the group is more political than charitable,” Scott Walter, the president of the Capital Research Center, a conservative investigative nonprofit group, told the Washington Examiner. “But it also suggests that finally some left-wing heavyweights have begun to deal with the embarrassing mess made by a major activist group the institutional Left has failed to, pardon the term, police.”
Indeed, as far as the $60 million is concerned, the new leadership group changed BLM’s fiscal year so that they don’t have to report their finances until May.

lock him UP and seize his assets!!!!
If they can show Jamie Raskin is involved, it would be quite the twofer.
I thought BLM was a bunch of white wimmens?
High level Dem lawyers never seem to have worry about any ethics, do they?
Ask what legal code prohibits such activity, and then standby for a Jiminy solo.
Mark Elias is the expert election theft lawyer. He helped Al Franken steal the 2008 Senate seat in Minnesota and for Christine Gregoire to steal the Washington Governor seat in 2004. Who knows what other evil this Villian has done.
Does anyone really believe that there is a remaining $60 million? That money is long gone.
I hear a Clinton vacuum cleaner getting full of a lot of $.
No way! This can’t be real!
Amazing

You can’t make this shtt up!

Seems to be some accounting errors in reporting.
Totally predicable. The first round of Burn, Loot and Murder Astroturf activism happened in another POTUS election year: 2016.
