Dark money can’t hide.
Government Accountability Institute Director of Research Seamus Bruner says the May Day mobilization did not bubble up from the grassroots — it was underwritten by a familiar constellation of left-wing funders.
Some 600 groups, including hard-line communists and groups affiliated with the Democratic Party, mobilized to demonstrate for socialism’s high holy day.
And all the usual suspects were behind it.
The Tides Foundation. The Arabella Network. The Soros Network. Zuck Bucks. Pierre Omidyar.
It is the same ecosystem, Bruner says, that bankrolls the Southern Poverty Law Center’s hate group lists — the very lists the Biden DOJ leaned on to target conservatives.
“They’re diabolical for sure,” Bruner told OAN’s Dan Ball. “And I think the thing that’s the most outrageous is that it’s your and my money going into these protests. It goes through the Tides Center and the Soros Network. These left-wing billionaire quote-unquote philanthropists have figured out a way to get taxpayer money, taxpayer grants into one part of their network, and then they funnel it over to the boots on the ground.”
Bruner continued: ” I testified in front of the Senate just a month or two ago, talking about how rioting is actually the final step in their pipeline from the border to the ballot … The first step is the border. They funnel in all these migrants. The whole reason that they hate Donald Trump and the Trump administration is because he’s trying to deport all of their future voters. So the next step is the election Inc., the same group, Soros, Tides, Arabella, etc. They have election NGOs. And then, when Donald Trump and the Trump administration threaten this pipeline, they deploy the shock troops, the May Day parade protesters.”
Bruner and Ball also discussed Bertelsmann — the German publishing house with Third Reich roots and the Mohn family at its center. Bruner laid out a sequence of events that, by his account, deserves a much closer look:
- Bertelsmann paid junior Senator Barack Obama between $2 and $3 million for his books Dreams of My Father and The Audacity of Hope.
- The same month Obama took office in January 2009, Bertelsmann established a 501(c)(3) foundation in Washington, DC.
- That foundation handed the new president a 15-point policy plan whose first and only major act was a call for an Iran nuclear deal.
- After Obama left office, Bertelsmann paid him $65 million for his post-presidency book deal.
The Iran deal, Bruner says, wasn’t a foreign policy idea Obama happened to land on. It was an asset that European interests had paid to acquire.
“They give him a 15-point plan for what young Barack Obama, one of the youngest presidents ever to take office, should do in his first years in office. And on that list is a nuclear deal with Iran,” Bruner said.
