California Pumped Tens of Millions into Immigration NGO’s that Fight Deportation, Track ICE and more…

As federal agents are confronted by riots in Los Angeles over the arrest and deportation of criminal illegal aliens, it is worth exploring how the state, and even the federal government, have been funding nonprofits that facilitate migration and advocate for open-borders policies locally and nationwide.

Over just the past two years, the state of California poured tens of millions of dollars into nonprofits involved in immigration/refugee advocacy and legal services. Just five key non-governmental organizations documented here received $73.6 million in 2023 and 2024, and all of them include deportation defense in their work.

They’re also all 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofits, meaning they are restricted in the amount of time they can devote to political advocacy. Nevertheless, many participate in advocacy at the state and/or federal level, with some emphasizing policy work in states other than California. These organizations represent only a portion of nonprofits receiving funding related to immigration legal support and advocacy.

The spending cycle becomes more perverse when federal funds also flow to these nonprofits, empowering them to advocate for federal and state policies that then precipitate more of their own activities and further public funding.

Open the Books compiled state spending figures through our California checkbook, a collection of line-by-line expenditures across state-level entities.

Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA): $35,226,566

CHIRLA has been identified on X by California-based attorney Laura Powell as an organization that is particularly involved in the LA riots and “resistance” to federal immigration law enforcement. Powell noted CHIRLA’s strong relationship with California and L.A. government leadership, including Mayor Karen Bass; and she outlined how the nonprofit leads a coalition hotline where members of the public can send in tips on the location of ICE agents and a rapid response network deploys activists. ...

A migrant who beheaded his victim and caused his intestines to spill out while he was still alive could avoid deportation from Germany - because prosecutors think he would just come back from Somalia.

Mursal Mohamed Seid, 24, killed his 52-year-old flatmate Alex K. in a homeless shelter in the Bavarian town of Regen in July 2021.

He stabbed his victim 111 times with a knife before beheading him.

Trump: “We have 500,000 Chinese students coming in. I've always been in favor of it.”

Or... How about at least one US student in China in a similar field in exchange for each Chinese student in the US?

They are getting ahead of us in tech, and this could be a way to recover our lead.

that’s fake news, data made up.

Anyone figure out how it is that the ice protests in Los Angeles all of a sudden just stop cold and curfew lifted and LAPD off tactical alert status just like that, even though ICE continues operations and raids in Los Angeles at the same pace as before the protests? I mean just stops cold like it never existed.

Might be that the DOJ is not just prosecuting rioters but going after the funders. Funders got scared so no more money.
