In August 2023, The New York Times published a rare informative and honest journalism. The New York Times wrote exposed the so-called anti-war group Code Pink as a Communist China shill or front group.
Kristinn Taylor reported at the time.
Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans, 68, has deep roots in the Democratic Party, having served as the campaign manager for the 1992 presidential campaign of former California Governor Jerry Brown. In the 2008 presidential campaign, Evans served as a host for Obama fundraisers in Hollywood with her then husband Max Palevsky (who passed away in 2010 at age 85) and as a campaign bundler.
Evans married Singham, 69, in 2017.
Fellow Code Pink co-founder Susan ‘Medea’ Benjamin protested against President Trump at his arraignment in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, reported TGP’s Jordan Conradson.
Trump was the only U.S. president to not start any new wars, yet the so-called antiwar group Code Pink stood against him in his first term – and now in his second term.
It is clear Code Pink is not an “anti-war” group. Instead, Code Pink is a shill for the communists.

Among the first things I’ve seen is an inflatable Trump baby being paraded around the block-long media stakeout by Code Pink’s Medea Benjamin. “I don’t want to go to jail, I want my mommy,” cries the man in the costume. A passerby quips, “yeah, it’s just another day in DC.” pic.twitter.com/hY7MwbmNTA

Excerpt from the lengthy New York Times article:
…On the surface, No Cold War is a loose collective run mostly by American and British activists who say the West’s rhetoric against China has distracted from issues like climate change and racial injustice.
In fact, a New York Times investigation found, it is part of a lavishly funded influence campaign that defends China and pushes its propaganda. At the center is a charismatic American millionaire, Neville Roy Singham, who is known as a socialist benefactor of far-left causes.
What is less known, and is hidden amid a tangle of nonprofit groups and shell companies, is that Mr. Singham works closely with the Chinese government media machine and is financing its propaganda worldwide.
From a think tank in Massachusetts to an event space in Manhattan, from a political party in South Africa to news organizations in India and Brazil, The Times tracked hundreds of millions of dollars to groups linked to Mr. Singham that mix progressive advocacy with Chinese government talking points.
Some, like No Cold War, popped up in recent years. Others, like the American antiwar group Code Pink, have morphed over time. Code Pink once criticized China’s rights record but now defends its internment of the predominantly Muslim Uyghurs, which human rights experts have labeled a crime against humanity.
These groups are funded through American nonprofits flush with at least $275 million in donations.
…In 2017, Mr. Singham married Jodie Evans, a former Democratic political adviser and the co-founder of Code Pink. The wedding, in Jamaica, was a “Who’s Who” of progressivism. Photos from the event show Amy Goodman, host of “Democracy Now!”; Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream; and V, the playwright formerly known as Eve Ensler, who wrote “The Vagina Monologues.”
…Since 2017, about a quarter of Code Pink’s donations — more than $1.4 million — have come from two groups linked to Mr. Singham, nonprofit records show. The first was one of the UPS store nonprofits. The second was a charity that Goldman Sachs offers as a conduit for clients’ giving, and that Mr. Singham has used in the past.
…In a recent YouTube video chat, she was asked if she had anything negative to say about China.
“I can’t, for the life of me, think of anything,” Ms. Evans responded. She ultimately had one complaint: She had trouble using China’s phone-brd payment apps.
…Mr. Singham’s office, adorned in red and yellow, sits on the 18th floor of Shanghai’s swanky Times Square.
…He shares the office with a Chinese media company called Maku Group, which says its goal is to “tell China’s story well,” a term commonly used for foreign propaganda. In a Chinese-language job advertisement, Maku says it produces text, audio and videos for “global networks of popular media and progressive think tanks.”
End excerpt. The New York Times article can be read in its entirety at this (paywalled, sorry) link.
The Daily Beast published a deep dive report in May on Singham but glossed over his ties to Code Pink (excerpt):
…And all the International People’s Media Network’s affiliates, including Tricontinental, appear to drink from the same torrent of dark money pouring out of the bank accounts and nonprofits of tech mogul Neville “Roy” Singham. Efforts to reach Singham for this piece, including through his partner Jodie Evans of the protest group Code Pink, proved fruitless.
A 2022 report by the New Lines Institute for Policy and Strategy outlined how Singham sold his multibillion-dollar software company Thoughtworks five years prior and had since pumped money into a labyrinth of nonprofit organizations—Tricontinental among them. Prashad, for his part, has openly acknowledged Singham as the source of his group’s endowment, which has climbed to more than $14 million, mostly funneled through Goldman Sachs’ anonymized philanthropy fund. The financial institution declined to comment on its relationship with Singham, but insisted it abides by all relevant regulations.
On Sunday The Gateway Pundit’s Antonio Graceffo reported that Singham is the funder behind the communist part network that is fueling the anti-ICE protests across the US.
FBI Confirms Investigation Into Foreign Funding as Violence Spreads to 25+ Cities, and Cash Trail Leads Back to the Chinese Communist Party.
The anti-ICE riots engulfing Los Angeles and spreading to more than 25 American cities are not the spontaneous uprisings the mainstream media wants you to believe.
Behind the burning cars, Mexican and Palestinian flags, and attacks on federal agents lies a sophisticated network of Chinese Communist Party-linked funding that threatens the very foundations of American sovereignty.
The shocking truth: A Shanghai-based American billionaire with documented ties to the Chinese Communist Party has been funneling millions of dollars into the radical organizations orchestrating these riots, according to ongoing congressional investigations and FBI probes.
At the center of this operation is Neville Roy Singham, an American tech billionaire who relocated to Shanghai after selling his company for $785 million in 2017. He is now the subject of FBI and congressional investigations into foreign influence and illicit funding of radical groups operating inside the United States.
Singham has systematically built what investigators call “an elaborate dark money network” that allows him to send funds through a series of nonprofits with virtually no real footprints.
These shell organizations, with names like “United Community Fund” and “Justice Education Fund”, operate from UPS store mailboxes while channeling millions to radical groups across America.
Through this network, Singham has funneled at least $275 million to groups worldwide that “mix progressive advocacy with Chinese government talking points,” including organizations directly involved in the LA riots.
The billionaire’s Chinese connections run deep. He joined a Communist Party workshop about promoting the party internationally, shares office space with a company whose stated goal is educating foreigners about “the miracles that China has created,” and works directly with Chinese university programs designed to “spread China’s voice to the world.”
One key node in this network is The People’s Forum, founded by Claudia De La Cruz, the 2024 presidential candidate for the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL).
Several other PSL figures, Ben Becker, Karla Reyes, and Yari Osorio, hold leadership positions at Breakthrough BT Media Inc., another Singham-funded entity.
This tight web of personnel and funding forms a direct pipeline from a CCP-linked billionaire to organizations behind that provided material support for the LA riots.
The organizational muscle behind the LA riots comes from the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), a hardcore Marxist group that advocates for the complete dismantling of American capitalism.
This isn’t hidden: PSL openly calls the rioters heroes taking “a courageous stand against Trump’s reign of terror.”
Congressional investigators have identified PSL as a key recipient of Singham’s funding network.
The group helped organize the L.A. riots, printing the signage, providing trained spokespeople, and coordinating similar riots in San Antonio, Oakland, and beyond.
PSL actively promoted the anti-ICE protests through social media posts calling for “mass mobilization” and provided signs that protesters carried during the riots.
The same network previously funded and organized the pro-Hamas encampments that took over parts of Columbia University and other elite campuses.
Beyond their direct involvement in American chaos, PSL supports the Communist Party of China, defending China’s human rights record and denying that the People’s Liberation Army massacred peaceful student protesters in the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests.
The pattern is clear: Chinese money flowing to anti-American radicals who then unleash chaos on our streets.
You can read the rest here.
It is clear at this point that Code Pink is not an anti-war group but an anti-US group like we always suspected. It is a shame that certain outlets still give these communists a voice on their channel.
Now we know who is funding the riots – and it leads back to China.
