The most high-profile Black Lives Matter group in the nation spent almost a quarter of its donations in 2020 on consultants and lawyers, DailyMail.com can reveal. The Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation (BLMGNF) submitted a statement of its revenue and expenses for the year while applying for tax-exempt, nonprofit status in August 2020. IRS documents obtained by DailyMail.com show the group blew $12.7million out of the $60million in donations it received following the outcry over George Floyd's death on 'professional fees.' The costs refer to accountants, lawyers, consultants, and contractors utilized by the organization, which includes the high-powered law firm Hillary Clinton retained for her 2016

Comments:

Out of lefty corporate pockets and into the hands of their Marxist friends. Tax deductible, of course, because that's the American way.

I understand that the original Marxist founders have grabbed their slice of the pie and skedaddled, and a HildeBeast-associated law firm has declared itself in charge. Expect to see the rest of the CA$H disappear down 'Rat holes in short order. By next year the phantom organization will disappear as well.

That's how the democrat party operates. Anyone wonder when any issue will be resolved or eliminated instead of just constantly growing the department and program? They never solve anything - just talk about it, form a committee to discuss it more, then propose a new agency where they'll say "it's a good initial start".

Time for the IRS to announce an audit of BLM's financial records. "Consultants" is such an iffy expense that can mean anyone from paying real consultants to paying family members. Anyone can be called a consultant. You need to ask, what service did they actually provide? It would probably be wise to remove BLM's tax-exempt status.

The Biden Justice Department is ending an initiative aimed at Chinese espionage and intellectual property theft over concerns it created a perception of racism, according to a top official on Wednesday. Assistant Attorney General for National Security Matthew Olsen announced during a speech at George Mason University that the department was scrapping its China Initiative, even though an internal review found no indication of racial bias or prejudice. Olsen said, according to a transcript of his speech: We have heard concerns from the civil rights community that the ‘China Initiative’ fueled a narrative of intolerance and bias. To many, that narrative suggests that the Justice Department treats people from China

The 5,000 helmets Germany committed to sending to Ukraine last month are finally on their way to the Eastern European country on the second day of Russia’s invasion. On Jan. 26, Germany Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht announced Berlin would be sending the headgear to support Ukraine’s armed forces. At the time, Vitali Klitschko, the mayor of Kyiv–Ukraine’s capital city–slammed the commitment as a joke. “The behavior of the German government leaves me speechless,” Klitschko, who was elected mayor of Kyiv in 2014, told German tabloid Bild, according to Reuters.(Snip)“What kind of support will Germany send next?” Klitschko added. “Pillows?”

The duo barged into the shop on John Street near Broadway around 11:25 p.m. on Feb. 16—joined by a woman who stayed close to the door, according to cops and a clip released late Wednesday.

They then started pushing and tossing items on the counter, including two display cases holding scratch-offs, the footage shows.

Sen. Mitt Romney condemned Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in a statement late Wednesday that also took a shot at both of America’s last two presidents, including a famed line thrown at him by Barack Obama. The Utah Republican blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine on a decade and more of U.S. weakness, also alluding to former President Donald Trump’s foreign-policy slogan. “Putin’s impunity predictably follows our tepid response to his previous horrors in Georgia and Crimea, our naive efforts at a one-sided ‘reset’ and the shortsightedness of ‘America First,’” he said.

Fresh suspicion that Covid may have been tinkered with in a lab emerged today after scientists found genetic material owned by Moderna in the virus's spike protein. They identified a tiny snippet of code that is identical to part of a gene patented by the vaccine maker three years before the pandemic.

Two prosecutors heading the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office’s probe into the Trump Organization called it quits on Wednesday–throwing the case into question. The resignations of Mark Pomerantz and Carey Dunne were first reported by The New York Times. A source confirmed to The Post that the prosecutors jointly stepped down. The source stressed that the coordinated nature of the departures was a sign of intense frustration with the direction of the case. According to the Times, the move came after District Attorney Alvin Bragg suggested to the attorneys that he had doubts about the case.

When COVID vaccines first became available in January of last year to more than 4 million people, there was a stampede for appointments. Frustrated residents spent hours scouring dozens of vaccine provider websites, trying to secure a coveted slot. Some would wake up in the middle of the night to forage for new listings.(Snip)In an effort to end the disarray, the state’s Department of Health contracted with a subsidiary of Navient Corp. to create a vaccine call center to answer resident questions and to help make vaccine appointments. It launched on Jan. 25, 2021. The state spent more than $90 million on the contract for all of 2021,

Russian troops have invaded Ukraine from three directions in an all-out war. Ukrainians have had to rush into full civilian mobilization in an attempt to survive it. At stake is the post-Soviet world order that provided for at least some semblance of diplomatic engagement over use of arms between major powers.Those life-and-death issues aren’t the big priority, at least not to former Secretary of State John Kerry.

President Joe Biden will nominate federal Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson on Friday to replace Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, which would make her the first black woman on the high court's bench should she be confirmed by the Senate. Breyer announced his retirement last month after 28 years on the Supreme Court, effective when the current term ends this summer. That paved the way for Biden to fulfill his 2020 campaign promise of nominating a black woman as a Supreme Court justice.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine isn’t going as easily as I think Vladimir Putin thought it would go. As we noted earlier, they are facing some tough fighting from the Ukrainians as well as thousands of protesters in Russia who have come out against the war. That’s quite something, given the oppressive state of Russia and how they would face immediate retribution. Yet, protesters have come out anyway. Ukraine fought back to recapture an airport the Russians had taken. So, Russia isn’t going to be able to do what they wanted because they haven’t met the goals they were trying to meet by now – which was to seize all

The Secret Service is telling Republican investigators that it cannot find communications related to Hunter Biden’s travels for 2010, 2011, or 2013 — when President Joe Biden was the vice president. Republican Sens. Chuck Grassley of Iowa and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin sent the Secret Service a letter last month seeking unredacted records tied to Hunter Biden’s travels between January 2009 and January 2017. They asked for full travel records and criticized the agency for years of “inappropriate redactions” — especially related to a controversial Kazakhstan trip in 2014. The senators also lamented that three years of documents seemed to be missing entirely.

That has now been confirmed by none other than Vladimir Putin himself. Per an announcement from the Russian president, his military forces are moving into greater Ukraine, including Kyiv, in order to “demilitarize” and “denazify” the sovereign nation. None of this is hypothetical anymore. Explosions are being heard in multiple Ukrainian cities. It is clear that a major military attack is underway.
