SVB donated $73M to Black Lives Matter movement, social justice causes

[NYPOST] Silicon Valley Bank, which collapsed on Friday after a classic bank run, donated more than $73 million to groups related to the Black Lives Matter movement, online records show.

A database from the conservative Claremont Institute shows the bank donated around $73,450,000 to the BLM movement and other social justice-related causes.

As first reported by The Federalist, the now-defunct bank pledged in the summer of 2020 — when the nation was gripped by racial unrest after the police custody death of St. George Floyd

...the patron saint of Minneapolis, a sterling example for our children and indeed for us all. St. George was martyed by the Devil's agents in blue while standing on a street corner preaching tolerance and racial justice or something like that...
— to increase its commitment to "diversity, equipment, and inclusion (DEI)" in the workplace.

A report from August 2020 highlighted the fact that around two-thirds of the bank’s workforce met the "diversity" criteria.

Another report that year touted SVB’s achievements in supporting minorities.

In an introductory letter to the report, CEO Greg Becker said SVB touted employee matching programs that focused on "pandemic response, social justice, sustainability, and supporting women, Black and Latinx emerging talent, and other underrepresented groups."

#1 There are 5000 banks in the US. The 2 or 3 that failed are tied to the most corrupt Democrats. And Deep State (Federal Regulators) were covering for them.

#2 Around $73M? I don't care if they had billions in assets, I'd have been one pretty pissed off shareholder.

Evidently Gov. Gavin Gruesome and his old lady had some strong connections to this bank as well (surprise, surprise).

#3 Oh I'm sure part of the BLM purchase included research and intimidation of said shareholders.

That stated, it appears to be that nearly everyone involved is a political attache.

#5 But this particular type of "protection" failed, even among the super-woke Silicon Valley tech types, apparently.

#7 Drop in the bucket. Total corporate donations to BLM confirmed thus far? $83 Billion. BLM is here to stay folks until such a time that we see fit to put them down. So...what'll it be?
