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

The clock is ticking: DHS shutdown endangers FIFA World Cup security preparations
In less than three months, the United States will welcome the world for the largest sporting event in the history of mankind: the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Our nation will be hosting 78 matches across 11 U.S. host cities in a 40-day period during America’s 250th birthday. This showcase of American exceptionalism is projected to bring in more than 5 million visitors and produce $30 billion in economic output.
And yet, President Donald Trump’s White House Task Force on the FIFA World Cup 2026 is being stifled in ensuring the safety and security of the event because a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown is limiting DHS’s ability to prepare for this unprecedented global tournament.
When Congress failed to fund DHS more than a month ago, critical agencies such as the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and the United States Coast Guard (USCG) were forced to operate with limited resources, unpaid staff and suspend certain operations.
Each of these agencies, as well as all of the 23 components housed within DHS, are vitally important to the White House FIFA Task Force’s whole-of-government approach to protect U.S. citizens and international visitors alike.
TOP TSA WATCHDOG BACKS TRUMP’S ICE AIRPORT MOVE AS SHUTDOWN SNARLS TRAVEL
Right now, the DHS shutdown is hampering the department’s ability to prepare for the largest influx of visitors in American history. This shutdown is not merely a matter of bureaucratic inconvenience; it is a direct threat to our national security.
The first kick-off is less than 80 days away. The longer this shutdown continues, the more gaps there may be in our security and operational planning, preparedness, and coordination. Our ability to deliver a safe World Cup suffers every day that Congress refuses to fund us.
As millions of visitors arrive for the World Cup, America’s airports, cities and ports need to be ready. The shutdown is making that nearly impossible.
MASK-FREE ICE AGENTS BEGIN PATROLLING US AIRPORTS; TRUMP FLOATS NATIONAL GUARD
TSA will play a vitally important role in making sure soccer fans the world over can move throughout the country free of harm. As of today, nearly 95% of TSA employees are working without pay, and the financial strain is causing callout rates to double nationwide, with more than 450 officers quitting since the shutdown began.
With fewer officers showing up, TSA has had to consolidate or reduce the number of checkpoints at some airports, creating significantly longer lines for all passengers. Each officer must screen more travelers, increasing the risk of missed threats. At John F. Kennedy International Airport and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, callout rates have reached 40%. It is even worse at William P. Hobby Airport in Houston (55%).
Now imagine that scenario happening during the busiest travel season in American history — where each of those metropolitan areas will be hosting World Cup games this summer.
SEE IT: TRAVELERS SOUND OFF AS ICE AGENTS DEPLOYED TO AIRPORTS AS SHUTDOWN DRAGS PAST 40 DAYS
In addition, plans for new checkpoint screening technology upgrades at World Cup gateway airports risk being delayed or canceled with a prolonged shutdown. World Cup-specific staffing, canine deployments and coordination with airport and law enforcement partners are all falling victim to travel restrictions, approval delays and canceled training sessions.
TSA’s Federal Air Marshal Service’s efforts to assess vulnerabilities and deploy Counter-UAS (unmanned aircraft system) capabilities at transportation venues are also at risk. Prolonged shutdown delays or cancels planned security assessments, procurement of C-UAS systems and training on new equipment, which directly affect our ability to detect and mitigate drone threats around key transportation hubs.
If Congress does not act, we risk missing threats at our most bustling airports, just as fans from every corner of the globe arrive.

The majority of DHS training and exercises for first responders and cybersecurity are on hold. limiting our ability to prepare for physical and cyber threats during the World Cup. Furloughs and reduced staffing impacts DHS’s ability to conduct security assessments, compromise our intelligence posture and hinders collaboration with our partners during this critical planning phrase.
The Coast Guard is scheduled to protect America’s harbors and waterways during the World Cup. With nearly 75% of its specialized civilian workforce furloughed and no money for contracts or training, the Coast Guard faces skill gaps and a risk of mission failure. The Coast Guard must mobilize about 1,000 security forces and support personnel for World Cup events, but without funding, they cannot pay for equipment or conduct advanced training.
The longer DHS is forced to operate without funding, the increased likelihood that America’s security and the tournament’s success are at risk. Partisan politics are jeopardizing the safety of our communities and the success of this historic event.
It does not have to be this way. The bottom line is this: Congress must act now. End the shutdown. Restore DHS funding. Give DHS the necessary resources to deliver a safe, secure and unforgettable World Cup. The clock is ticking. The world will be watching. Congress owes it to the American people to ensure that the World Cup kickstarts the beginning of The Golden Age of America in stunning — and safe — fashion.

8th-grader stands alone with last perfect women’s NCAA basketball bracket
Perfection is hard to come by – as anyone who has ever filled out a bracket for the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Tournament has come to realize during March Madness season.
But one eighth grader from Pennsylvania is currently defying the odds.
Otto Schellhammer, who is only 14, has the last remaining perfect bracket for the women’s tournament. Stunningly, he’s admitted he knows nothing about basketball.

“I know people say this a lot about March Madness,” Schellhammer told The Associated Press, “but it was 100% luck. I know basically nothing about any type of basketball.
“I play with my friends,” he added, “but I don’t really watch it.”
Schellhammer has correctly picked the first 48 games in the women’s tournament on ESPN’s Tournament Challenge contest. He is just 15 correct picks away from perfection.
Though there may be perfect brackets in smaller pools across the country, he has the lone one in which the NCAA has tracked. The organization has tracked seven of the largest contests for years, according to Mike Benzie, the senior director of content for NCAA Digital.
The NCAA has tracked 36 million men’s entries and 5.2 million on the women’s side, making Schellhammer one in 41.2 million.
LAS VEGAS BETS BIG ON MARCH MADNESS AMID CITY’S TOURISM SLUMP THAT WORRIES MANY
“I think it’s absolutely hilarious,” said Amy Schellhammer, Otto’s mother. “It’s just so fun to see. It’s exciting. I’m excited he’s into women’s basketball now. He’s been watching and it’s making him more excited about it.”
On the men’s side of the ESPN Tournament Challenge, the hope for a perfect bracket came to an end when Tennessee defeated Virginia in the 44th game of the tournament.
The NCAA found 235 perfect women’s brackets among the major contests going into Monday. The number fell to seven when Virginia beat Iowa in double overtime. When Notre Dame defeated Ohio State, Schellhammer was the last one standing.
“The first game I watched of March Madness was on Monday,” Schellhammer said. “I came home and I was like, ‘I’ll check and see how my women’s bracket is doing.’ Then I watched Virginia beat Iowa, and that was pretty cool. And then I watched Notre Dame.”
Schellhammer said if he had to go back, he may have re-picked his champion team.
But for now, Schellhammer has the Texas Longhorns to win it all.

IOC announces new policy to ensure only females compete in women’s competitions
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced Thursday that it is adopting a new policy that will ensure only biological females compete in women’s competitions.
The new policy also employs genetic testing to verify the biological sex of competitors in the women’s section.

“Eligibility for any female category event at the Olympic Games or any other IOC event, including individual and team sports, is now limited to biological females, determined on the basis of a one‑time SRY gene screening,” the new policy states.
“Evidence‑based and expert‑informed, the policy – applicable for the LA28 Olympic Games onwards – protects fairness, safety and integrity in the female category.”
The testing can be conducted via saliva, cheek swab or blood sample.
The IOC said it came to the decision to implement the policy after consulting with a panel of experts, with the goal of providing equal opportunity for women in sport.
“The policy was developed on the basis that it is universally accepted that providing for a female category is necessary to allow both males and females equal access to elite sport,” the IOC said in an announcement.
“It was guided by the IOC’s modern goals relating to equality (equal opportunities for female athletes in finals, on podiums and in championships); enhancing Olympic value (featuring both women’s and men’s finals in every sport); and visibility and inspiration (celebrating female athletes on the Olympic podium to inspire and represent women and girls worldwide).”
WOMEN’S SPORTS ACTIVISTS REACT AS BOXER IMANE KHELIF MAKES CONFESSION ABOUT BIOLOGICAL SEX
IOC President Kristy Coventry suggested that the continued enabling of males in women’s sports is “not safe” in the announcement.
“As a former athlete, I passionately believe in the rights of all Olympians to take part in fair competition. The policy that we have announced is based on science and has been led by medical experts. At the Olympic Games, even the smallest margins can be the difference between victory and defeat,” Coventry said.
“So, it is absolutely clear that it would not be fair for biological males to compete in the female category. In addition, in some sports it would simply not be safe.”
A presentation at a World Athletics panel in Tokyo in September revealed that 50 to 60 athletes with male biological advantages have been finalists in the female category at global and continental championships since 2000.
The panel was led by the head of the World Athletics Health and Science Department, Dr. Stéphane Bermon, who said sex tests were necessary because of an “over-representation” of DSD (differences of sex development) athletes among finalists, per multiple reports.
Last October, the United Nations said nearly 900 biological females have fallen short of the podium because they were beaten by trans athletes.
The findings were compiled by Reem Alsalem, the U.N.’s rapporteur on violence against women and titled “Violence against women and girls in sports.”
The report said that more than 600 athletes did not medal in more than 400 competitions in 29 sports, totaling over 890 medals, according to information obtained as of March 30.
