Activist Criticized for Grifting for Fake Hurricane Harvey Charity

[jimnyc]

If all this is true, now THIS is a scumbag -tricking to get money in the name of a national disaster?

I'm not even sure where the money will go. She claims towards 'relief', but as noted, it does NOT go to any of the victims. In fact, the organization getting the money states they do "Community Organizing, Civic Electoral Engagement, TOP is a member-based organization that conducts direct action organizing, grassroots lobbying and electoral organizing"

And for WHO I wonder?

Do I mention that she is a muslim activist?

Linda Sarsour Criticized for Grifting for Fake Hurricane Harvey Charity

Activist Linda Sarsour came under fire on Wednesday for posting an appeal to donate to a PAC under the guise of Hurricane Harvey relief. Sarsour tweeted a link to the "Harvey Hurricane Relief Fund," which, upon further investigation, isn't actually a relief fund at all.

This is the organization:

The money raised by the organization will go to "shining a spotlight on inequalities" that may arise during the rebuilding effort. It does not appear that money will actually go towards the people who lost their homes in the storm.

Later on in the day, Sarsour complained that her "mentions" on Twitter were going crazy, and blamed the alt-right, rather than the fact that she literally encouraged people to donate to a PAC in lieu of an actual charity to help the actual victims of a natural disaster.

More... and Btw, I couldn't care less if she were on the right of left. What I care about, is a FRAUD collecting money, and likely a shitload of people donating thinking it will go directly to the victims, or directly to help them.

Linda Sarsour Solicits Donations to Left-Wing Community Organizers for ‘Hurricane Relief Fund’

In the wake of the ongoing devastation in Texas as a result of Hurricane Harvey, progressive activist Linda Sarsour has solicited donations for a community organizing group that she has described as a “hurricane relief fund.”

On Wednesday, Sarsour sent out a tweet asking people to donate to “hurricane relief,” when in fact all donations allegedly go towards the Texas Organizing Project (TOP), a left-wing advocacy group that openly opposes President Donald Trump and the Republican Party.

“While we are deeply saddened and disheartened with the results of the presidential election, Donald Trump’s win only strengthens our resolve to fight even harder for marginalized communities,” the front page of TOP’s website reads.

Meanwhile, their ‘hurricane relief fund’ page claims that they will “organize and advocate for our devastated communities, shining a spotlight on inequalities that emerge in the restoration of lives, livelihoods, and homes, amplifying the needs of hard-hit communities, and providing legal assistance for residents wrongfully denied government support.”

The tweet provoked a furious response from many of Sarsour’s followers, who accused her of using the tragedy for political gains.

Lib philosophy: "Never let a disaster go to waste"

Honestly, she should have said, "Donate now! We're going to cause more divisiveness in TX!" That's what she is advocating.
