Who funds the groups harassing ICE agents in Minnesota?
Law Officer ^ | 1-18-26 | Law Officer Staff

Posted on 01/18/2026 12:37:33 PM PST by MarlonRando

Sunrise is bankrolled by a who’s who of deep-pocketed left-wing organizations. Open Society Foundations has sent it $2 million since 2019, according to its grant database. Half of the money supported general “social welfare activities.” The Ford Foundation contributed $150,000 in 2024 and $550,000 in 2025, while the MacArthur Foundation—the 12th-largest private charity in America—gave $250,000 in 2024, according to tax filings and grant disclosures.

So basically Georgy Schwartz (aka George Soros) and the Ford Foundation headed by Heather Gerken-Simon. Oy vey! What a bunch of schmucks and putzes. I wish someone would slap them on the tuckuses.

We must get a handle on this kind of money influence, or our Republic is done for.

it’s the same people and the same names we hear about every day. The intelligence agencies know them and where they live. George Soros wakes up every day, rubbing his hands together and thinking of ways to destroy the country. But these guys never go to jail. They just keep donating their millions or billions, while the country swirls down the toilet.

Some of our taxes still go there too
That defunding bill that failed two days ago as an example

81 republicans voted to keep funding

Yep. It isn’t as if we don’t know who and what they are.

AGREED

but it seems that in USA (and likely most countries) if you have enough money, you can do whatever the F you want AND never, ever be held responsible for it

Soros and his son Alex walk around receiving awards. Reporters breathlessly hang on their every word. Hey, I put “reporters,” and “hanging,” in the same sentence. That would be a good start

It’s high time to bring out the high-pressure firehoses and not let the guerrilla fighters close enough to harm the ICE personnel.

It’s mostly evolution of funding of the old Cold War

That funding and conduits evolved into continuing foreign wars and keeping Russia as the bad guy to keep defense cash flowing which gives back to pols in donations

And now wokeness and DEI jumped in as part of the strategy

Soros manipulates or rides the manipulations to make money mostly and his ideology second

That a quick snapshot

From Ukraine to streets of Minneapolis to the folks egging on Kirk’s killer

They all are in this pipeline of cash and influence

Crazy isn’t it

Everybody’s known who it is for years. What’s taking the FBI and DoJ? Blondi can’t even get James indicted for slam dunk mortgage fraud. Retarded bimbo.

When you have that much money there is nothing more to buy. You can have everything you want.

So this is a game to them. Those people are puppets. They don’t care about policy or politics. They enjoy seeing their puppets do as they are told and destroying what they can never have. Beauty, peace, and a relationship with God.

Look at George’s first life lesson. Collaborate with the nazis and get what you can how you can because the murdered fellow Jews around you are just puppets in your play. Nothing more, nothing less.

It’s obvious Soros sold his soul to the devil a long time ago.

An old lawyer friend of mine told me how he picked young lawyers for his firm. They needed three different qualities:

(1) Legal skills—knowledge of the law

(2) Willingness to work hard

and—he said the most important one—totally intangible

(3) Fanatical desire to do what it takes to win cases

I think Bondi definitely does not have the third. (We could debate the first two.)
