Here’s How The Liberal Money Machine Is Fueling Pro-Hamas Activism

“The disturbing reality is that Hamas’s allies in the U.S. have a significant foothold in the non-profit sector,” Ryan Mauro, a national security analyst at the Capital Research Center, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “Major left-wing organizations are funding Hamas’s sympathizers and those who indirectly help Hamas by waging a political war against Israel.”

The Tides Center, part of a network of liberal nonprofits that collectively raised more than $1.5 billion in 2020, provides fiscal sponsorship to groups that praised Hamas. Groups sponsored by the Tides Center that praised Hamas or otherwise downplayed their attacks include the Adalah Justice Project, Palestine Legal, The Arab Resource and Organizing Center and The Catalyst Project.

Fiscal sponsorship is an arrangement that allows an established nonprofit like the Tides Center to process tax-deductible donations for allied groups without those groups themselves needing to register with the IRS, according to the American Bar Association.
