Episode Details

A congressional committee is probing three left-wing activist groups—People’s Forum, Tricontinental, and BreakThrough News—for alleged foreign funding ties to tech millionaire Neville Roy Singham, who has deep links to China. The investigation questions whether current nonprofit laws are sufficient to block foreign influence, as these groups resist subpoenas by branding the probe a “McCarthy-style witch hunt” and rallying supporters through social media and fundraising. Singham, who sold his tech firm for millions, funneled funds into pro-communist and pro-China organizations via shell companies and donor-advised funds, sparking scrutiny over financial transparency. Prominent figures like Hasan Piker and Medea Benjamin, also under investigation for a Cuba trip, are part of a unified defense that frames the inquiry as an assault on free speech and independent journalism.
