| Trump’s war on the left: A look at his crackdown on liberal NGOs and their funding |
| 2025-10-12 |
Very long. You’ll want drink and some munchies to fuel your brain while you read. A taste: [IsraelTimes] Spearheaded by Stephen Miller, Trump administration planning to deploy FBI, DOJ, DHS, and IRS against left-wing groups, including those linked to Jewish billionaire George Soros.Good. Notice that Soros is noted as Jewish, but Stephen (PBUH) Miller's not? US President Donald Trump’s threatened crackdown on the finances and activities of liberal non-profits and groups opposed to his agenda …not merely liberal, but violent far left groups and their supporters… is a multi-agency effort with top White House aide Stephen Miller playing a central role, according to officials.The Trump administration plans to deploy America’s counter-terrorism apparatus – including the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security and the Justice Department – as well as the Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department against certain left-wing groups it accuses of funding and organizing political violence, the officials said. The groups set to be targeted in the crackdown include several organizations funded by George Soros, a Jewish-American billionaire and prominent left-wing political donor, who has been the subject of conservative ire for years. The targeted groups also include IfNotNow and Jewish Voice for Peace, two anti-Zionist Jewish nonprofits. The effort marks an escalation in the administration’s efforts to target domestic opponents, raising alarm among civil rights groups and Democratic leaders about the use of executive power. Reuters spoke to three White House officials, four Department of Homeland Security officials and one Justice Department official to produce the first comprehensive account of how decisions are being made, forces deployed, and operations coordinated in the crackdown. All of the administration officials spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations more freely. Miller is deeply involved in reviewing government agencies’ investigations into the financial networks behind what the administration labels “domestic terror networks,” which include nonprofits and even educational institutions, a White House official said. The Trump administration has released some examples of what it alleges are incidents of left-wing violence, but it has provided little evidence of a coordinated effort. “Left-wing organizations have fueled violent riots, organized attacks against law enforcement officers, coordinated illegal doxing campaigns, arranged drop points for weapons and riot materials, and more,” the White House said in a statement to Reuters. Miller did not respond to a request for comment. |
