Rubio's call to combat global funders of far-left terrorism could put Singham in crosshairs

The Marxist nonprofit financier has funneled $278M into groups that
organize anti-ICE and anti-Israel protests 

Secretary Marco Rubio’s call for global cooperation to combat far-left
political terrorism could implicate Neville Roy Singham, a Marxist
nonprofit financier who is currently facing a federal grand jury probe
in New York. 

Singham, a 72-year-old American who sold his tech company for $785
million in 2017 and now lives in Shanghai, is known to fund pro-Chinese
Communist Party groups that operate in the U.S. He has funneled $278
million into the broad network of nonprofits since 2017, according to a
Fox News Digital investigation. These groups regularly organize and
participate in anti-ICE, anti-Israel and pro-Iran demonstrations. 

At a State Department summit held in Washington, D.C., Thursday, Rubio
urged more than 60 countries to treat far-left global terrorism as a
counterterrorism priority.

FUNDING OF LEFTIST GROUPS 

"For far too long, however, our counterterrorism doctrine has had a
blind spot – a blind spot when it comes to extremist violence from the
political left, Rubio said. "Even today, the very idea that far-left
terrorism could be a serious threat is treated as a right-wing fever
dream, or worse, as a dangerous fascist conspiracy." 

Rubio noted that networks are coordinating across multiple countries,
providing training instructions and using encrypted communication to
facilitate unrest. He said that international cooperation is critical to
disrupting the financing of dangerous organizations, and that some are
working with hostile foreign states. 

Rubio did not mention Singham by name and State Department officials did
not respond to a request for comment. 

Singham’s web of nonprofits are known to promote communist and Marxist
ideals on social media platforms and on the ground at demonstrations
across the country. Code Pink, which was co-founded by Singham’s wife,
Jodie Evans, regularly protests in the U.S. Capitol, confronting
lawmakers and openly admits that "China is Not Our Enemy."

TERROR 'MASKED AS EQUALITY' 

Rubio mentioned the dangerous influence Marxist beliefs can have when
tied to acts of terrorism. He said the left often seems to excuse
violence carried out by its own extremists. 

"A bomb planted by a neo-Nazi group was a nefarious and murderous act of
evil," Rubio said. "But a bomb planted by a Marxist revolutionary –
well, that’s just merely a tragic excess of idealism. Perhaps its means
were misplaced or overzealous, but its ends were virtuous and just.
That’s the implication of how they treat it." 

Congress has also taken note of Singham’s activities. House Ways and
Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith, R-Mo., launched an investigation
into the Singham nonprofit network last year, and members in the upper
chamber are also sounding the alarm on Singham’s ties to China. 

"Chinese-funded, anti-American billionaires like Neville Roy Singham are
instigating far-left chaos across our country," Sen. Jim Banks, R-Ind.,
told Fox News Digital. "This needs to stop, and Secretary Rubio is
rightly taking action to confront this transnational scourge head-on."

A SECURITY THREAT 

Last month, Fox News Digital reported that the Department of Justice has
launched a grand jury investigation into alleged financial crimes.
Singham hasn’t responded to repeated requests for comment from Fox News
Digital. 

According to sources familiar with the matter, the grand jury in
Manhattan has issued subpoenas as part of a probe launched by U.S.
Attorney for the Southern District of New York Jay Clayton for the
Southern District of New York, one of the country's most powerful
districts for federal prosecutions. 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 met privately with Goldman Sachs
Chairman and CEO David Solomon in New York earlier this year, where,
according to sources familiar with the discussion, he warned that the
firm could come under scrutiny over its alleged role in the movement of
funds tied to Singham. 

During the meeting, Bessent encouraged Solomon to fully cooperate with
the Justice Department's investigation, telling him that Goldman Sachs'
handling of the Singham-linked funds could become part of the federal
probe should they choose not to cooperate. 

A source with knowledge of the conversation told Fox News Digital that
the exchange was cordial, and that Solomon indicated Goldman Sachs would
aid investigators. 

"All distributions from Mr. Singham's donor-advised fund were made to
legal nonprofits, as determined by the IRS," a Treasury spokesperson
said. "There have been no distributions from the account since August
2023, and it was closed in early 2024."
