BLM Finally Shows Financials – And The Picture Isn’t Pretty(Isn't pretty for who?)

For years now, the BLM organization has been pressured to be more transparent. People have been curious about how and from whom the group gets donations and where that money is being spent. Finally, in an exclusive to the Associated Press, the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation has released the numbers – but not all the information requested. “This marks the first time in the movement’s nearly eight-year history that BLM leaders have revealed a detailed look at their finances,” the AP said.

After the death of George Floyd at the hands of a police officer in May 2020, monetary donations started flooding into the organization – an amazing $90 million estimated for just last year. And the new financial report has some members scratching their heads and wondering even more where all the money has gone.

Pre-George Floyd Contributions And Spending The Global Network spent millions on “consultants, travel and compensation for its staff from July 2017 through June 2019, according to audited financial statements from its fiscal sponsor, Thousand Currents.” Apparently, only about 6% of the organization’s spending during those years went to outside organizations, including its independent affiliated chapters.

Yep

FWIW, BLM went to the Middle East when Obama was president to train with the Palestinians on how to manipulate the Media so they can always be viewed as victims.

Given the number of times BLM leaders met with Obama in the White House, I suspect he set up those trips.

After the death of George Floyd at the hands of a police officer...

Never happened, he died from a drug overdose per the autopsy.

The Hennepin County medical examiner said that Floyd bloodwork showed a “fatal level of fentanyl,” according to court documents, but he didn’t say this killed him.

The “he didn’t say this killed him” was to satisfy a reason to go after the cops.

There was no asphyxiation.

“Nothing will happen to them.”

Depends. Start some sh*t in the wrong state and you’ll be looking at 10-20 in state prison.

hiring and promotion to be on black preference basis....

Wonder if the nerdy young men as the ones kneeling in a recent picture here showing their idolatrous allegiance to BLM, are going to like being low paid also rans under the thumb of women who don’t respect or desire them?

How could they vote for male suicide by voting Dem? Stooooopid.
