Steven Richards writes for JustTheNews.com about one US senator’s questionable political activity.
The political committee of Democratic Senator Chris Murphy — himself well versed in the “Resistance” talking points against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) — is dedicated to resisting President Donald Trump and has funded a prominent left-wing nonprofit that has been at the center of highly organized, “mass mobilization” anti-ICE protests around the country.
Murphy’s newly rebranded Political Action Committee, American Mobilization, donated $100,000 last year to Indivisible, a progressive movement and organization formed in the wake of Trump’s first election in 2016 and dedicated to resisting the Trump agenda, Federal Election Commission records for the PAC show.
Indivisible says that it “drives coordinated campaigns, powering the grassroots Indivisible movement to defeat the rightwing takeover of American government” and it claims that “an alliance of white nationalists and the ultra-rich have been actively working to further undermine democracy.”
Indivisible is part of a network of left-wing organizations that have recently been at the center of various protest movements against the Trump administration, from being the lead organizer of the No Kings rallies, to anti-ICE protests, to opposing the U.S. military operation to capture Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro earlier this year.
Some of its partners in this network, including the People’s Forum, funded by self-proclaimed Marxist Neville Roy Singham, have drawn scrutiny from lawmakers for alleged foreign ties, specifically to China and Cuba, as well as possible violations of nonprofit laws. This network has been responsible for organizing the most prominent demonstrations against the Trump administration. Just the News previously reported on the subpoena targeting Singham.
Murphy’s PAC has also partnered with organizations that provide legal representation to illegal immigrants in both Texas and Minnesota. Both states have been rocked by anti-ICE protests and alleged left-wing anarchist activity targeting immigration facilities.
