Podcasts about Capital Research Center

In a recent interview with podcast host Alan Skorski, investigative researcher Ryan Mauro of the Capital Research Center sounded the alarm on what he described as an increasingly dangerous coalition of extremist groups operating in the United States under the banner of pro-Palestinian activism. Mauro, who has spent years researching radical networks including Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), Columbia University Apartheid Divest (CUAD), and the Marxist-linked Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), claims that nearly 500 groups across the country are united not only by hostility toward Israel, but by a broader agenda to undermine the United States. “Many of these extremist groups hate Israel because of America—not the other way around,” Mauro told Skorski, challenging what he says is a commonly held assumption about the motivations behind anti-Israel activism. Among the most concerning groups identified in his research is Unity of Fields (UoF), a Palestinian group that explicitly promotes militant protest tactics and has engaged in direct confrontations with U.S. police. Mauro said the group's stated mission is to “disrupt and dismantle Zionism and U.S. imperialism through direct militant actions.” The group frequently deploys slogans such as “No cops, no KKK, no Fascist USA!” and refers to the NYPD as “IOF-trained pigs,” a reference to the Israel Defense Forces. In a recent paper titled Marching Towards Violence, Mauro reports that anarchist groups are increasingly aiming to operate as an “anti-police wannabe insurgency.” He said that his research tracked 150 of the most active “pro-Palestinian” groups on social media in the 15 months before and after the October 7 Hamas-led terror attack in Israel. The findings showed a 186% increase in anti-American rhetoric and a more than 3,000% rise in posts calling for violence on U.S. soil. Mauro also warned of an unlikely alliance between far-left and far-right elements seeking to exploit civil unrest in the U.S. “They believe that once the system collapses, their ideology will rise to the top,” he said. “It's an accelerationist strategy.” Despite what he describes as a current moment of unity among radical groups, Mauro predicts internal fractures ahead. He believes Indian Hindus may become the next target of the radical coalition due to tensions between India and Pakistan. “Once these groups pivot to attacking Hindus, it will become clear they were never about Palestine,” Mauro said. “They jump from cause to cause to create chaos and insurgency in America.” Mauro also emphasized the threat posed by far-right antisemitism, pointing to conspiracy theories spread by figures such as Tucker Carlson and controversial statements from conservative commentator Candace Owens. “The far-left's antisemitism is dangerous, but the far-right can't be ignored,” Mauro said. “We're seeing toxic ideologies from both ends feeding into the same destructive current.” Mauro's research, including publications such as When Charities Betray America: How “Pro-Palestinian” Protest Groups Promote Anti-Americanism and Pro-Hamas Extremism Taking Root in America, forms part of an expanding body of work examining domestic extremism and its links to global terror movements.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, amid numerous threats from abroad and pressing domestic issues, it's outrageous that the media is fixated on Abrego Garcia, an illegal immigrant, documented wife-beater, and alleged MS-13 gang member.  Garcia has been ruled deportable by immigration courts and the Department of Homeland Security due to his gang ties and illegal status. Despite clear evidence, the media ignores his criminality, and Democrats defend him. The ruling class protects Garcia while criticizing President Trump, yet it ignores Biden's defiance of Supreme Court orders on student loans. Also, the 14th Amendment does not provide for birthright citizenship, contrary to media claims, and its authors never intended it to include such a right. At no time did the authors of the 14th Amendment ever mention birthright citizenship. For 40 years AFTER the ratification of the 14th Amendment no court had ruled, and no Congress had argued that there was something called birthright citizenship. Later, the Capital Research Center's report, "When Charities Betray America," examines how certain "pro-Palestinian" groups, specifically Within Our Lifetime (WOL), Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM), and Code Pink, have increasingly promoted anti-American and anti-police rhetoric since the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel. Analyzing thousands of social media posts, the study found a 3,000% surge in calls for violence and a 186% increase in anti-American and anti-police keywords among 496 groups and activists, many tied to nonprofits or charities. Finally, Jim Trusty calls in to explain that the DOJ's decision to seek the death penalty for Luigi Mangione, which raises complex legal issues, including federal jurisdiction over a traditionally state-handled crime.

While we at Capital Research Center may not have a favorite Internal Revenue Service regulation, we do find one to be particularly relevant to our work on nonprofits in the public policy process: “Restriction of political campaign intervention by Section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organizations.” Long story short, if you're a public charity, you're free to be ideological, but you cannot endorse or support candidates for office. And New Georgia Project, the charitable-nonprofit voter outreach group of serial Georgia candidate Stacey Abrams, is on the hot seat for allegedly breaking that regulation, with the group paying a state fine for campaign finance violations, the Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee asking the IRS to revoke the group's tax exemption, and the state Senate investigating the Abrams-New Georgia relationship.

Trevor Louden returns to the program to discuss the play by play operation to take down the United States by the communists (and the technocrats). They intend to rebuild the ashes into their Utopian communist delusion. He shares how you can see the parallels in ongoing actions all around us.

For more than 30 years, he has researched radical left, Marxist and terrorist movements and their covert influence on mainstream politics. Trevor Loudon's thesis is that what is commonly regarded as mainstream political policy is in fact driven and guided by hidden subversive elements. The Democratic Party's consistent defunding of the US military, support of open borders, sexualization of children, the climate change agenda, pipeline shutdowns and many other anti-American policies are all consistent with communist goals. Trevor Loudon believes that these forces must be exposed and countered, as America's continued role as a bastion of freedom is pivotal for the future of western civilization.

The “charitable” sector must return to being charitable, NOT political! Sophisticated operatives are trying to manipulate the public. Can you see it? The Arabella network includes a half dozen non-profits that took in over $2.4 billion in the 2020 election cycle. That's $1-billion MORE money than all that was collected by the Republican and Democrat committees combined. Then in 2022 Arabella took in more than $3-billion, more than the DNC & RNC and both parties Senate and House committees! Scott's non-profit organization in Washington DC, the Capital Research Center, first uncovered this ‘deep state' ‘dark money' fraud. Their investigation goes back to 2005. While Bill Gates, George Soros, and Mark Zuckerberg are significant donors into the Arabella network, Scott reports dozens of other millionaires and billionaires that are funding this Arabella network of 501(c)3 and 501(c)4's nationwide. Their intent is to influence elections, the Supreme Court nominations, abortion, women's sports, school discipline, Medicare for All, environmental policies, fake local news outlets, and much more! Over the last 10 years the Left built up a perverse funding mechanism to support and promote Marxist-Leftist candidates and policies. These conspiracies have surfaced and are now in plain view.

So while you're out with friends and family, I hope you're taking the time to honor those that paid the ultimate sacrifice for this country. This episode shines a light on left-wing mega donors like never before. Scott Walter and his colleagues at Capital Research Center expose a major top-down player called Arabella. Scott's new book about Arabella explains how a radicalized Eric Kessler got his sugar baby Hansjörg Wyss to fund his first progressive movement. From then, the Arabella network has created or associated with 501(c)3 and (c)4 groups around the country to focus on everything from environmental causes to abortion to DEI. Scott exposes how billionaires use foundations as their mechanism of enforcement. Arabella and their "sister" funds such as Sixteen Thirty and New Venture Fund are responsible for most of the attacks on Trump, targeting his judicial nominees and furthuring abortion-on-demand causes. Did you know that Warren Buffett and the $4.7 billion dollars he passed through his Hopewell Fund is the single greatest contributor to abortion and abortion related issues? George Soros is as awful as the rumors about him but the truth is, the Left has many, many Soros types. Make sure to watch this episode because Scott has done his research and is naming names!

In this episode of The Bill Walton Show, Bill wades into the murky waters of the Left's “dark money” manipulation of American politics with Scott Walter and Kristen Eastlick with the Capital Research Center.  We often use the phrase follow the money. Scott and Kristen are among the best at doing just that.  Centerpiece of the discussion is Scott's new book Arabella: The Dark Money Network of Leftist Billionaires Secretly Transforming America.     In it, he reveals the vast influence that the Arabella Network - by deploying billions of dollars - plays in American politics under the guise of progressive philanthropy.  To name just a few issues, Arabella has played a major role in battles over Supreme Court nominations, abortion, men in women's sports, school discipline, Medicare for All, environmental policies, fake local news outlets, and the “Zuck Bucks” used to manipulate elections. Many believe that most of the attacks on American institutions by the Left are financed and organized in part by Arabella.   This episode's conversation gets into revealing detail about how this network operates as a "dark money” brain trust with a for-profit manager (of course) at its epicenter, commanding several billion dollar nonprofit action groups. These funds in turn create hundreds of “pop-up” entities that appear suddenly, giving the appearance of huge popular groundswells, when in fact they're the creations of Arabella and other similarly deeply disguised operations on the Left.  Rather than being innocent grassroots outfits, they are the creation of their secretive dark money operations. The sheer quantity of money that has flowed through Arabella's channels is staggering.  In the 2020 election cycle, Arabella's nonprofits took in $2.4 billion, more than the fundraising of the Democratic and Republican National Committees combined.  In the 2022 election cycle, Arabella's fundraising rose to $3 billion. Arabella is a big part of the reason for the Left's stunning advantage in money and sophisticated political machinery that shapes our lives and elections. Scott and Kristen describe the “three rivers of money” flowing into politics.     “With the first river of hard dollars, traditional political giving, the Left has an advantage, but it's slight,” explains Scott. “In the second river, the independent expenditures, dark money and super PACs, the left has a little advantage, but it's also slight. But in the third river,” and here Scott grows animated, “where the Left's charitable public policy groups operate, it's not even close. It's over a 10 to one in the Left's favor and totals to over a $35 billion advantage. This is really the death star for the lefties.” It's shocking to learn how Arabella has covertly developed the darkest of “dark money” networks. It's also shocking to learn who has been by far the largest single individual contributor to the abortion industry to the tune of $6+ billion.  (Revealed at the 18:36 minute mark)  In fact, the further you go in this episode, the more disturbing the political swamp and the people behind it reveal themselves to be.  If you really want to follow the money, start here.

If you're a regular listener, you've heard the name “Arabella Advisors” before—the management company that sits at the center of a network of left-wing “dark money” advocacy nonprofits. Now, the story of Arabella Advisors, its network, and its influence is told in a volume authored by Capital Research Center's president Scott Walter, imaginatively titled Arabella: […]

The left-wing Arabella Advisors network has raked in more money than either of the two major political parties and affects almost every element of public policy and elections, argues Scott Walter, president of the Capital Research Center, a Washington-based investigative think tank. Walter's new book “Arabella: The Dark Money Network of Leftist Billionaires Secretly Transforming America” shows that in the 2020 election cycle, Arabella Advisors' nonprofits took in $2.4 billion. That's $1 billion more than the combined fundraising of the Democratic National Committee and the Republican National Committee. That amount rose to $3 billion in the 2022 election cycle, Walter says. Moreover, he adds, nothing on the Right comes close to competing.
