SHORT TAKES ON THE DRIFTING WRECKAGE – OVERNIGHT:

MORE TRUTH COMES OUT  FROM SPIKED-ONLINECOM:   The Black Lives Matter movement has raised billions of dollars over the past several years. But no one seems to know how most of that money has been spent.  On 20 December 2020, The Economist noted that $10.6 billion had been pledged to causes and organisations affiliated with BLM. According to that article and further reporting from the right-leaning Daily Signal, BLM’s corporate donors included Amazon, Gatorade, Microsoft, 23andMe and Tinder, while recipients ranged from the small-scale Unicorn Riot guerilla media firm to the sizeable Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation (BLMGNF).  As far as I can tell, no comprehensive or even partial audit of what happened to this staggering sum of money has ever taken place. Indeed, given the sheer number of corporate and NGO players involved, conducting one would be incredibly difficult.  Another journalism failure.  You'd think the major, mighty, lefty news organizations would be curious about the finances of BLM, and who actually benefits.  You'd think wrong.  Why should results matter when the ideology is so inviting?
