“DataRepublican” Exposes Who Is Funding Leftist “Pop-Up” Protests

X user DataRepublican, who is known for creating data visualizations and conducting analysis to track the flow of taxpayer funds and big money to NGOs and similar groups, turned her attention to who is funding the “stop ICE” protests - and it’s many of the usual suspects once again. 

She looked into an “emergency protest” that popped up in Manhattan on the 10th and went through all the groups in attendance. 

The first funder she found was the Working Families Party, which is a “progressive left” third-party with influence over New York politics through their valued endorsement of left-wing candidates. 

Among its top donors, are, of course, Alex Soros’ newly inherited Open Society Foundations, and the Soros-funded Tides Foundation, in addition to the State Democracy Project (also a grantmaking institution) 

Another group involved was Make the Road Action, which took just shy of $2 million from the OSF since 2021, with the majority being in the year Alex officially took over. 

The Soros network has also been behind much of the lawfare against the Trump administration, which has been successful entirely thanks to Joe Biden and Barack Obama-appointed judges. 

In just the latest, two Soros-linked NGOs are suing to stop Trump’s reforms for the Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) program, which represent a new effort to deport unaccompanied minors to end human trafficking of migrant children into the U.S. The reforms were issued in February. 

Breitbart’s John Binder recently reported that:

Part of those reforms is banning UACs from being turned over to illegal aliens in the United States.

HHS whistleblower Tara Lee Rodas has called the UAC program a “white glove delivery service” where migrant children go from Department of Homeland Security (DHS) custody to HHS custody before being turned over to adult sponsors that are not their parents or relatives, in most cases.

[Last] week, the National Center for Youth Law and Democracy Forward,  both with financial ties to the Soros network, filed a class action lawsuit to stop Trump’s HHS from verifying the legal status of an adult sponsor before a UAC is handed over to their care. The groups are asking a district court to find the reforms unlawful and issue a preliminary injunction stopping the administration from implementing the reforms.

The case is Immigrant Defenders Law Center v. HHS, No. 1:25-cv-01405 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

Alex had easy access to the prior administration, making at least 30 visits to the White House, including one for a meeting with Biden himself.
