Revolutionary Tourism: Inside the $600M marriage of dark money and far-left agitprop

Published

on

Part 4 of a Fox News Digital series investigating the House of Singham explores how the House of Singham mobilizes “The Masses,” a key element in Mao Zedong’s doctrine for a People’s War.

Nearly a decade after Jodie Evans tied the knot with tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham off the waters of Jamaica, the professional activist swept through Havana’s José Martí International Airport last week in sandals and a flowing skirt, wearing a red and white Palestinian kefiyyeh scarf over her shoulders.

Soon after, her friend, wedding guest and fellow activist, Medea Benjamin, joined her as part of the “Nuestra América Convoy” to protest U.S. policy toward Cuba.

It was another day at work for the jet-set professional agitators. 

Since 2017, when Evans married Singham in a wedding called “Revolutionary Love” with activist luminaries in attendance, the structure that began forming beneath palm trees has appeared repeatedly at moments of unrest, from Minneapolis to Manhattan, operating through nonprofits, media platforms and activist centers that describe their mission as dismantling “the U.S. empire” from within “the belly of the beast.”

Exclusive photos obtained by Fox News Digital from the Jamaica wedding show the network’s early cast of characters together in one place: Vijay Prashad, a central ideological voice; Liz Theoharis of the Kairos Center, whose organizing has intersected with protest movements including those tied to Columbia University; actor Danny Glover and CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin and her partner, Tighe Barry. Evans, Singham and their wedding guests didn’t return requests for comment.

At the wedding, sessions and discussions foreshadowed what would follow, aligning activists, messaging and movements across causes and borders. Nearly a decade later, many of those same figures appear across protests, conferences and global campaigns tied to the network.

Over the next years, Glover would join CodePink, protesting U.S. military strikes against Yemen and making a film with director Oliver Stone and a media platform called “Belly of the Beast,” the name many of the wedding guests call the United States.

PRO-CHINA TYCOON FUNNELS MILLIONS TO FUND ANTI-AMERICAN PROTESTS

A Fox News Digital investigation has uncovered how Singham and Evans activated a global network that now numbers an estimated 2,000 hard-left organizations that parrot anti-U.S. propaganda supporting autocratic regimes leading China, Russia, Iran, Cuba, North Korea, Venezuela and Gaza. 

Fox News Digital analyzed 223 transactions that moved $591 million in total across five continents from 2017 through 2025, the latest year for which figures are available, and found the money flows through five concentric rings of an ideological pipeline that spreads pro-China propaganda.

The investigation established a documented $278 million that flowed from Singham into organizations that “sow discord” in the U.S., as House Ways and Means Chair Jason Smith put it recently at a hearing on foreign malign influence in the nonprofit industry.

Funds also financed about 100 overseas trips that CodePink has facilitated for agitators over the years, with 65 trips to hostile nations, including Venezuela, Iran, Gaza, China and Cuba, returning with talking points that mirror the propaganda of America’s foreign adversaries. 

Last week’s sojourn to Havana was just the latest in a dynamic that critics call “revolutionary tourism.” 

In the U.S., CodePink activists now parrot foreign talking points at protests that have included celebrities Susan Sarandon and Jane Fonda.

Propaganda scholar Nancy Snow first met Evans in 1992 in Henniker, N.H., when Evans was campaign manager for then-presidential candidate Jerry Brown. Evans had arrived with Brown, who was touting his flat tax proposal at a local town hall. Snow saw her again in the early 2000s in salons hosted by liberal publisher Arianna Huffington for guests to debate ideas.

“Over time, Jodie Evan’s advocacy has moved into a transnational activist ecosystem where anti-American narratives are converging with the strategic messaging of authoritarian states,” Snow told Fox News Digital.

“The Jodie I knew was a progressive anti-war, pro-environment and human rights activist,” recalled Snow. At her home in Venice, Calif., Evans “was charming, cordial and accepting.” 

“I never heard any of the militancy and revolutionary rhetoric that she spouts today. She seems to hate America, which is quite the fashion today. Jodie has undoubtedly radicalized over time, fueled by the deep pockets of her Marxist husband, Neville Roy Singham.”

POWER COUPLE OF CHAOS: HOW A TYCOON AND ACTIVIST BUILT A ‘REVOLUTIONARY BASE’ AT THE HOUSE OF SINGHAM

Snow, the author of a book, “Propaganda and Persuasian,” said the tactics of the Singham network apply a specific strategy.

 “The most effective propaganda looks like moral activism,” said Snow. “It often arrives disguised as citizen activism. My advice: Follow the money, identify the sponsors. 

“Propaganda in the 21st century rarely travels through governments alone. It travels through movements,” said Snow.

Immediately after its launch in 2017, the Singham network operated across continents. It accelerated protest mobilization around geopolitics, including anti-Israel activism and anti-U.S. military actions, and focused on creating a narrative of crisis and resistance. 

Different city. Different cause. Same playbook.

From their headquarters on W. 37th Street, Singham’s field marshals in the People’s Forum coordinate protests nationwide that chase the day’s headlines, including: #FreePalestine #FromTheRiverToTheSea protests after the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks by Hamas on Israel, #HandsOffIran after U.S. military strikes in the summer of 2025, #HandsOffVenezuela following the arrest of Nicholas Maduro in January and now #ICEOut, #HandsOffIran and #LetCubaLive.

Many of those field marshals were assembled around a garden nearly a decade ago. What is made to appear spontaneous follows a familiar pattern led by the same people.

RED WEALTH, DARK MONEY: HOW AN AMERICAN TYCOON DEPLOYS MAO’S PLAYBOOK AGAINST THE WEST

“Instead of kinetic action that involves soldiers, guns and bombs, the dynamic of agitation propaganda, or agitprop, as it’s called, was pioneered by the Soviets as a way to destabilize enemies without firing a bullet,” said Snow.

“It’s no coincidence that the U.S. has been rocked by constant agitprop over the past decade after the House of Singham came to fruition,” she said.

Fox News Digital’s investigation has mapped the network of foot soldiers that the House of Signham unleashes on America. 

The Party for Socialism and Liberation maintains 68 chapters nationwide and operates 23 Liberation Centers that serve as organizing hubs in major cities. The ANSWER Coalition maintains 13 chapters and so frequently partners with the Party for Socialism and Liberation in coordinated protests that the liberal New Republic calls the ANSWER Coalition its “front group.” Their logos were visible on placards and banners in New York and Minneapolis, even as some national media outlets described demonstrators simply as “angry protesters.”

This network accelerates protest mobilization around geopolitics — anti-Israel campaigns, opposition to U.S. military actions — and focuses on creating a narrative of crisis, chaos and resistance in the U.S., while China crushes dissent and stifles free expression among its citizens.

Most of the Singham network’s funding advanced a singular message: promoting Marxist-Leninist ideology, portraying China as a moral counterweight to the United States and supporting projects aligned with Beijing’s Belt and Road economic vision.

Smith, the House Ways and Means chairman, describes the House of Singham as a “network of non-profit organizations that serve as his conduits to spread pro-CCP narratives” through a fusion of media, research and commercial ventures. 

SHANGHAI SABOTAGE: INSIDE SINGHAM’S SECRET STRATEGY TO DEMONIZE AMERICA

In laying out his doctrine for the People’s War, Mao Zedong wrote that “the guerrilla must move amongst the people as a fish swims in the sea,” weapons are important in war but “it is people, not things, that are decisive.” 

His constant mandate was to “mobilize the masses.” 

Key to organizing the masses has been CodePink, the organization that Evans and Benjamin, her friend, established in 2008.

Singham’s philanthropy vehicle, GS Donor Advised Philanthropy Fund for Wealth Management Inc., pumped $1.3 million into CodePink after Singham’s marriage to Evans. The line item simply said, “General Support.”

Suddenly, the rhetoric on China shifted.

After criticizing China for years for its repression of the ethnic Uyghur Muslim community, Evans made a pivot in August 2020 and hosted a webinar with Prashad and the People’s Forum, invoking the title of a new campaign CodePink launched, “China is Not Our Enemy.”

By early 2021, she was openly praising China’s “extension” of the historical Silk Road. She highlighted China’s modern-day economic growth “under the leadership of the CPC,” the country’s acronym for the Communist Party of China, and she lauded China for building the world’s second-largest economy “without resorting to warfare, colonialism or slavery.” 

According to Fox News Digital’s count, the People’s Forum, ANSWER Coalition, Party for Socialism and Liberation and CodePink have organized at least 300 protests over the past decade.

Within minutes of a headline event, the network moves. 

There is a call to action by the organizing wing of the Singham circle: People’s Forum, the ANSWER Coalition, the Party for Socialism and Liberation and CodePink. 

Then, the action is amplified by the Singham-funded groups in the propaganda wing: BreakThrough News, People’s Dispatch, Tricontinental Ltd.

A scripted one-hour rally follows with a circular march, followed by days of footage from the protest, building the narrative of an “angry,” “grassroots,” “organic” “resistance” to the latest headline. Media amplification follows, glossing over the protests as socially-engineered.

On Wednesday, Jan. 7, less than four hours after the killing of an anti-ICE agitator Renee Good, by an ICE officer in Minneapolis, at about 10:38 a.m. a signal went out from the People’s Forum Inc., a Singham-funded nonprofit headquartered in an innocuous building off W. 37th Street, between a storefront for a psychic and a dry cleaner.

At 2:35 p.m.. Manolo De Los Santos, the group’s executive director, published a social media post a X, writing, “The cold blooded killing of a woman by ICE in Minneapolis and Trump’s bombing of over 100 people in Venezuela are connected acts of the same brutal machine.. 

“We must dismantle the U.S. empire, or it will dismantle us.”

Protests followed a regular sequence: public message, rapid protest call, coordinated signage, media amplification.

At 5:11 p.m., the People’s Forum summoned citizens to a 9 a.m. protest the next morning at Foley Square, near ICE offices in lower Manhattan. 

By 8:41 a.m. the next morning, David Chung, the director of organizing at the People’s Forum arrived at Foley Square, pushing a shopping cart packed with a speaker,microphone and megaphone, a sticker from the Party for Socialism and Liberation slapped on the side.

Signs were printed. Narratives were set. Talking points were scripted.

A man trailed behind Chung with a pile of freshly-printed black-and-white posters stapled to cardboard tubes and the message, “JUSTICE FOR RENEE GOOD,” with a photo of Good plastered on every poster.

Foot soldiers from the Party for Socialism and Liberation, the street wing of the People’s Forum,  handed the signs out to bystanders as the clock ticked close to 9 a.m. 

BreakThrough News broadcast the marchers in closeup and sped-up footage, a tactic designed to signal size and urgency.

The signs included the latest rage-bait messaging, invoking familiar communist tropes about “liberation,” “resistance,” “genocide” and “fascism.” The signs follow a rhetorical script to “free” the “oppressed,” “stand up” to “oppressors,” “shut down” systems and, most lately demand “hands off” the outrage of the day, be it, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba. 

Nearly a decade after the Jamaica wedding, the same network that gathered beneath palm trees has grown increasingly visible on streets from Havana to New York and Washington, D.C., fueled by the hundreds of millions of dollars provided by Singham.

The Party for Socialism and Liberation has expanded to organize teen students in walkouts at K-12 schools, protesting ICE operations.

As Benjamin and Evans returned to the United States this week, they geared up for the next action: the “No Kings Rally” on Saturday. 

Organized by a wider group of traditionally Democratic organizations, including Indivisible, the far-left Singham network has succeeded in entering the center-left Democratic ecosystem.

The call went out this week. The machine kicked into action for the next anti-America protest. 

Evans and Benjamin posted a message on Instagram, telling their followers to “join CodePink” on Saturday: “No War. No Imperialism. No Kings,” The Party for Socialism and Liberation instructed its members to join the “Socialist Contingent” at the protest Saturday. 

And the ANSWER Coalition shared a signal for its members to meet them at the Northeast corner of Jackson and Columbus streets in downtown Chicago at 12:30 p.m.

Obama Just Did The Unthinkable — Leaves Americans Speechless

Obama Just Did The Unthinkable — Leaves Americans Speechless

President Donald Trump and former President Barack Obama are once again clashing publicly, this time over the outcome of a major election in Hungary that saw longtime conservative Prime Minister Viktor Orbán defeated by left-wing challenger Péter Magyar.

The race drew international attention because Orbán has long been viewed as one of Trump’s closest ideological allies in Europe. Trump and many conservatives have praised Orbán for his hardline stances on immigration, national sovereignty, border enforcement, traditional values, and opposition to globalist institutions.

In a last-minute effort to help boost support for Orbán ahead of the election, Trump dispatched Vice President JD Vance to Hungary to publicly back the conservative government. Despite the high-profile support, Magyar ultimately secured a decisive victory.

Obama quickly celebrated the outcome online, framing the election as a broader rejection of populist conservative movements.

“The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world. Most of all, it’s a testament to the resilience and determination of the Hungarian people – and a reminder to all of us to keep striving for fairness, equality and the rule of law,” Obama wrote on X.

The comments immediately reignited tensions between Obama-world and the MAGA movement, with many conservatives pointing out that Orbán himself had won repeated democratic elections during his 16 years leading Hungary. Trump allies argued that labeling the defeat of a democratically elected conservative government as a “victory for democracy” exposed what they see as a double standard from global elites and establishment political figures.

The latest dispute adds to a growing public feud between Trump and Obama as Trump’s second administration moves aggressively to reverse many Obama-era policies both domestically and internationally. Obama has become increasingly vocal in opposing Trump and conservative policies, abandoning the traditional practice of former presidents largely avoiding direct political combat with successors.

In recent months, Obama has openly supported Democratic redistricting efforts in states like Virginia and California, even after criticizing similar efforts by Republicans in states such as Texas and Missouri. Critics accused Obama of hypocrisy and selectively supporting election changes only when they benefit Democrats.

Obama also recently drew criticism after using remarks tied to the death of civil rights activist Jesse Jackson to attack Trump and Republicans more broadly. The speech reportedly drew pushback even from Jesse Jackson Jr., the late activist’s son.

At the same time, Trump has repeatedly intensified his attacks on Obama over foreign policy, especially regarding Iran. Earlier this month, Trump and Pete Hegseth criticized Obama’s Iran nuclear deal and accused the former administration of empowering Tehran financially and militarily.

The criticism comes as the United States and Israel continue Operation Epic Fury, a military effort targeting Iran’s military infrastructure after Trump claimed the Iranian regime resumed covert nuclear weapons development.

Speaking Friday during the FII PRIORITY Summit, Trump blasted Obama over the controversial $1.7 billion payment made to Iran during implementation of the nuclear deal.

“That Barack Hussein Obama, did you ever hear of him? Barack Hussein Obama, he had the Iran nuclear deal. He went to Iran, he paid them,” Trump said. “Remember, he sent two Boeing 757 jetliners. They took the seats out and they piled it with cash, like 1.7 billion of cash.”

“That’s when I realized the president is very powerful. The presidency is a very powerful thing when you can do that. I haven’t done that yet. I haven’t found a reason to do that yet, but that’s big,” Trump added.

Obama officials at the time defended the payment, arguing it settled a decades-old legal dispute tied to a failed arms agreement dating back to the 1979 Iranian Revolution, when the Shah was overthrown and American hostages were held for more than 440 days.

Trump, however, has consistently argued the deal emboldened the Iranian regime and funded hostile activity across the Middle East.

“You know, there wasn’t a bank in DC, Virginia, or Maryland that had any money after that disaster,” Trump said.

“But they sent the cash to Iran, but more importantly, they signed an agreement, the Iran nuclear deal, which, if I didn’t terminate it in my first term, I terminated it almost immediately. If I didn’t terminate it, they would have had a nuclear weapon long ago, and they would have used it on the Middle East, Israel,” the president stated.

The renewed clashes between Trump and Obama underscore the widening ideological divide not only in American politics but increasingly across the global stage, where battles over nationalism, sovereignty, immigration, and foreign policy continue reshaping alliances and political movements worldwide.

Trump’s DOJ Preparing To Arrest Former President

Trump’s DOJ Preparing To Arrest Former President

The United States is reportedly moving closer to indicting former Cuban leader Raúl Castro in connection with the 1996 shootdown of two civilian aircraft operated by the humanitarian organization Brothers to the Rescue, according to reports citing U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

The potential indictment would reportedly require approval from a grand jury and would focus on the February 1996 incident in which four people were killed after Cuban fighter jets shot down two unarmed Cessna planes.

A spokesperson for the United States Department of Justice declined to comment on the reported effort.

The development comes as the administration of Donald Trump increases pressure on Cuba’s communist government. The administration has recently threatened steep tariffs targeting countries exporting oil to the island nation, intensifying Cuba’s ongoing energy and economic crisis.

The 1996 shootdown remains one of the most controversial flashpoints in modern U.S.-Cuba relations. Brothers to the Rescue was a Miami-based group known for flying missions over the Florida Straits to search for Cuban migrants attempting to flee the island on rafts.

In February 1996, two of the group’s aircraft were destroyed by a Cuban MiG-29 fighter jet. All four individuals aboard the planes were killed.

An investigation conducted by the Organization of American States concluded that the aircraft had been shot down outside Cuban airspace and determined that Cuba violated international law by using lethal force without warning or sufficient justification.

Then-President Bill Clinton condemned the attack “in the strongest possible terms.”

Cuban officials have long defended the military action, arguing the aircraft had violated Cuban airspace and represented a national security threat. At the time, Fidel Castro led the country while Raúl Castro oversaw the Cuban armed forces. Fidel Castro later stated that the military had acted under his broader directives to stop incursions into Cuban territory.

One man, Gerardo Hernández, was later convicted in the United States on conspiracy charges connected to the shootdown after prosecutors alleged he helped provide intelligence to Cuban authorities. Hernández was released in 2014 as part of a prisoner exchange between the United States and Cuba and subsequently returned to the island.

The renewed scrutiny surrounding the case comes amid a broader effort targeting Cuba’s communist leadership. Reports indicate that John Ratcliffe recently met with Raúl Castro’s grandson, Raul Guillermo Rodriguez Castro, also known as “Raulito.” According to reports, Ratcliffe conveyed that the United States is prepared to engage economically and on security issues only if Cuba makes substantial political and structural changes.

Separately, law enforcement officials in Florida have reportedly been exploring potential prosecutions involving Cuban communist officials tied to alleged economic crimes, narcotics activity, violent offenses, and immigration-related violations.

Florida Republicans have increasingly pushed for accountability in the decades-old Brothers to the Rescue case. Rick Scott and other lawmakers have recently urged the Justice Department to pursue criminal charges related to the incident.

Ron DeSantis responded to the reports with a blunt statement of support.

“Let ’er rip, it’s been a long time coming!” DeSantis wrote.

Carlos Giménez, the only Cuban-born member of Congress, also voiced support for the reported effort.

“I’m the only Cuban-born Member of the US Congress, and I fully support bringing dictator Raúl Castro to justice,” Giménez said on X.

Although Raúl Castro formally stepped down as leader of Cuba’s Communist Party in 2021, he is still widely viewed as a highly influential figure behind the scenes within the Cuban government.

If prosecutors move forward with charges, the case would mark a major escalation in tensions between Washington and Havana while reopening one of the most painful and politically sensitive episodes in the history of U.S.-Cuba relations.

Meanwhile, Miguel Díaz-Canel confirmed Friday that Cuban officials have been holding discussions with members of the Trump administration. During a 90-minute news conference carried by state media, Díaz-Canel acknowledged that talks were taking place as Cuba grapples with worsening economic conditions and severe energy shortages.
