Woke Capital Has Given More Than $82 Billion To Far-Left and Violent Organizations
New Database Reveals Which Companies Contributed Millions to the Burning and Looting of America's Cities
Well, this was a surprise: We all knew that America’s corporations made contributions to Black Lives Matter, Antifa and other terrorist groups over the past several years… but many of us assumed it was minor giving, just $5,000 here or there to placate Democrats and the far left. The usual spineless corporate virtue-signaling.
It turns out the money is a bit more: According to a new report in Newsweek and a new database created by the Claremont Institute, the amount of money corporate America contributed to BLM and affiliated organizations adds up to a whopping $82 billion.
It wasn’t $5,000 here and here.
American Express contributed $50 million. Amazon, $169 million. Blackrock, $810 million. CVS Health, $600 million. JP Morgan, $30 BILLION.
That’s right: $30 BILLION. That buys a lot of bricks and Molotov cocktails.
Literally HUNDREDS of America’s biggest companies shelled out for Black Lives Matter… even after it was revealed that its leaders were siphoning millions into their own personal accounts.
As an article in Newsweek describes it:
Most Americans have happily moved on from the 2020 Black Lives Matter (BLM)-driven ransacking of some 200 American cities, which resulted in as much as $2 billion in property damage and at least 25 deaths. But that time must be remembered for more than rioting and destruction. The BLM pressure campaigns, harassment, and moral blackmail also amounted to possibly the most lucrative shakedown of corporate America in its history.
Today the Claremont Institute's Center for the American Way of Life published the most comprehensive database to date tracking corporate contributions and pledges to the Black Lives Matter movement and related causes from 2020 to the present. Companies and corporations pledged or contributed an astonishing $82.9 billion to the BLM movement and related causes. This includes more than $123 million to the BLM parent organizations directly. These figures, while shocking, likely underrepresent the true magnitude of the shakedown as some companies failed to make known their contributions, and many BLM organizations remain unknown.
