What I've learned from people familiar with the investigation:
🚨 U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton for the Southern District of New York, one of the country's most powerful districts for federal prosecutions, has launched a federal grand jury investigation into American Marxist tycoon Neville Roy Singham's financial network, examining potential financial crimes including wire fraud, bank fraud and money laundering from his base in Shanghai, where he funds groups supporting the Chinese Communist Party.
🚨 Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche authorized the investigation as the Trump administration seeks to crack down on fraud, money laundering and other financial crimes in the multibillion-dollar nonprofit industry.
🚨 Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent traveled to New York City earlier this year for a meeting with Goldman Sachs Chairman and CEO David Solomon. The men discussed the role of a Goldman Sachs philanthropic arm — GS Donor Advised Philanthropy Fund For Wealth Management Inc. — that facilitated the movement by Singham of millions of dollars into a network of U.S. nonprofits. At that meeting, sources said, Bessent delivered a blunt ultimatum: Goldman Sachs could face scrutiny for alleged conspiracy in the funneling of the Singham money and urged Solomon to cooperate with federal investigators. Goldman Sachs is cooperating with the investigation.
🚨 Federal prosecutors are examining a financial structure that follows the three stages investigators often analyze in alleged money laundering: placement, layering and integration. Treasury, DOJ and Goldman Sachs declined to comment. Singham, his wife Jodie Evans -- also under investigation -- and the organizations in the Singham network didn't respond to numerous requests for comment.
STEP 1: ALLEGED PLACEMENT
According to the reporting, approximately $278 million entered the U.S. financial system through three entities:
🔴 Mutod LLC — $164,040,000
🔴 GS Donor Advised Philanthropy Fund for Wealth Management Inc. (Goldman Sachs) — $110,376,701
🔴 Likewise Conceptions LLC — $3,500,000
STEP 2: ALLEGED LAYERING
Those funds were then allegedly routed through six nonprofit organizations:
🔴 $167,540,000 to People's Support Foundation Ltd., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit established with a hotel address in 2017 in Chicago and Singham's wife, Evans, on the board.
🔴 $68,748,701 to Justice and Education Fund Inc., a 501(c)(3) established with a UPS Store address in 2018 in New York City with self-avowed communists, including Manola De Los Santos, on the board.
🔴 $22,440,000 to People's Forum Inc., a 501(c)(3) established in 2017 on W. 37th Street in New York City with Evans and De Los Santos on the board.
🔴 $16,760,000 to Tricontinental Ltd., a 501(c)(3) established in North Hampton, Mass., in 2017 by Singham friend and fellow Marxist ideologue Vijay Prashad.
🔴 $1,330,000 to CodePink Women For Peace, a 501(c)(3) established in 2009 in Marina Del Ray, Calif., by Singham's wife, Evans, and her friend, Susan Medea Benjamin.
🔴 $1,098,000 to Breakthrough BT Media Inc., a 501(c)(3) established in New York City in 2020 at the People's Forum headquarters with longtime American communist leader Brian Becker's son, Ben Becker, as editor-in-chief of its pro-communist propaganda outlet, Breakthrough News.
STEP 3: ALLEGED INTEGRATION
According to the reporting, those organizations then distributed funding and support into a broader activist network that included:
🔴 People's Welfare Association
🔴 ANSWER Coalition
🔴 Party for Socialism and Liberation
🔴 Numerous organizations operating across Sub-Saharan Africa, Central America, North America and other regions.
Federal prosecutors have issued grand jury subpoenas seeking bank records and financial documents as they determine whether criminal charges are warranted.
A grand jury investigation is an investigative process, not a finding of guilt.
For this reporting, I traced hundreds of financial transactions, nonprofit filings and corporate records documenting how money allegedly moved through this network. WATCH the money flow.
