Did Tides Advocacy, at the Center of a Soros-Funded Charitable Network, Disclose What Federal Tax Law Requires?

/ 23 minutes of reading

For the past year I have documented how charitable foundations funded by George Soros move tax-deductible money into political activity through a chain of related tax-exempt organizations. At the point where that chain crosses the line between charity and politics sits a single 501(c)(4): Tides Advocacy Inc (501(c)(4)) — now rebranded “Beyond Impact.” It is the point where money from […]

/ 42 minutes of reading

Letitia James, the elected Attorney General of New York, used the official press office of her own agency — paid for by New York taxpayers, staffed by named state employees including her communications director and her Press Secretaries, conducted through official state communications channels and staff resources — to respond to press inquiries about personal conduct that was the subject

Nothing Changed: Letitia James Signs Another False Financial Disclosure Under Oath

/ 16 minutes of reading

The federal indictment was dismissed. Two grand juries declined to indict. The prosecutors who built the case were gone. By any measure, Letitia James had survived the worst of it. On May 13, 2026, she signed her annual financial disclosure under oath and hand-delivered it to the state ethics commission. This is the same document her office told the public

Did a Tax-Exempt Political Network Help Elect Zohran Mamdani While Certifying It Was Independent?

/ 16 minutes of reading

Public filings show overlapping control, same-day reciprocal reporting, shared political operations, and nearly $79 million in charitable-to-advocacy funding flows — raising questions regulators should not ignore. Thirteen days before Election Day, $950,000 moved from one Working Families committee to another. The same treasurer appeared on both sides of the transaction. The receiving committee altogether spent $1.8 million on “independent” expenditures

Ilhan Omar’s Amended Financial Disclosure Numbers Don’t Reconcile

/ 21 minutes of reading

Two categories corrected simultaneously in opposite directions. An unexplained liability gap exceeding $3 million. A winery with $650 in the bank valued at $5 million. A venture capital firm claiming $60 billion under management with no publicly identified SEC registration or exemption. Five business entities sharing the same structural signature across six years. The amended filing doesn’t close the questions.

Is NYC’s Reported Crime Reduction Real?

/ 17 minutes of reading

The NYPD publishes two official reports every week. One says crime is down. The other says New Yorkers are calling for help more than ever. The department has never explained why. Nobody appears to have asked. Don’t take our word for it. Take theirs. The NYPD’s own CompStat report says crime is down nearly 6% this year. The NYPD’s own

Six for Six: ABC’s Katherine Faulders and the Letitia James Leak Pipeline

/ 8 minutes of reading

Every major development in the Letitia James case broke through one reporter. Every leak of non-public information helped the defense. Yesterday, I published “96 Minutes: The Letitia James Grand Jury Leaks Were Worse Than Reported.” I documented how two grand juries – one that chose secrecy, one that chose transparency – both had their decisions leaked to the same ABC

96 Minutes: The Letitia James Grand Jury Leaks Were Worse Than Reported

/ 10 minutes of reading

Two grand juries. Two different choices about disclosure. Neither controlled their own narrative. The leakers did. Last week, I published “The Letitia James Grand Jury Leak: 33 Minutes Early. A Federal Judge Put It in Writing.” I documented how Judge Porter cited a 4:06 PM ABC News article – authored by Katherine Faulders – that published the December 11 grand

Lawfare Just Admitted the Leaks Worked in the Letitia James Case

/ 11 minutes of reading

Molly Roberts says grand jurors were “reading the news.” She’s right. That news was built by 53 federal crimes – and a federal judge just documented the latest one with timestamps. On Friday, Lawfare published Molly Roberts’s analysis of the failed Letitia James indictments. Buried in her conclusion was an admission she didn’t realize she was making: “Grand jurors have

The Letitia James Grand Jury Leak: 33 Minutes Early. A Federal Judge Put It in Writing.

/ 4 minutes of reading

A federal judge documented a crime with timestamps. The prosecutor didn’t show up for his own verdict. The court filings tell the story. A federal judge put it in writing. With timestamps. On December 15, 2025, U.S. Magistrate Judge William Porter issued an order in the Letitia James case. He didn’t just note that the grand jury result leaked. He
