Doesn’t matter. $1.5M. For what? What merits this? Any reward to a traitor and a terrorist is too much.

Yeah, crappy bare ground (ever hear of xeriscaping, lady?), neighbors are looking right into the yard and windows, and the "California Ranch/Colorado Condo-style" chic shed ain't addin' a thing. That property's a poster child for the proposition that LA real estate prices left sanity behind a long time ago.

Besides, everybody knows that the real deals to be had are all up in Post Office Box Hollywood.

Still, though, there really is something deeply shady about someone like her getting a house from something like BLM. What has she done to deserve to have a home bought for her with $1.4 million of donated funds, how does it serve BLM for her to have this house, and how is all of this not arrant fraud? Or does she actually have a source of income besides BLM?

Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Khan-Cullors has gone on a real-estate buying binge in recent years, snagging four high-end homes for $3.2 million in the US alone, according to property records.

As protests broke out across the country in the name of Black Lives Matter, the group’s co-founder went on a real estate-buying binge, snagging four high-end homes for $3.2 million in the US alone, according to property records.

Patrisse Khan-Cullors, 37, also eyed property in the Bahamas at an ultra-exclusive resort where Justin Timberlake and Tiger Woods both have homes, The Post has learned. Luxury apartments and townhouses at the beachfront Albany resort outside Nassau are priced between $5 million and $20 million, according to a local agent.

The self-described Marxist last month purchased a $1.4 million home on a secluded road a short drive from Malibu in Los Angeles, according to a report. The 2,370 square-foot property features “soaring ceilings, skylights and plenty of windows” with canyon views. The Topanga Canyon homestead, which includes two houses on a quarter acre, is just one of three homes Khan-Cullors owns in the Los Angeles area, public records show.

Some fellow activists were taken aback by the real estate revelations.

Hawk Newsome, the head of Black Lives Matter Greater New York City, called for “an independent investigation” to find out how the global network spends its money.

“If you go around calling yourself a socialist, you have to ask how much of her own personal money is going to charitable causes,” he said. “It’s really sad because it makes people doubt the validity of the movement and overlook the fact that it’s the people that carry this movement.”

Last year, Khan-Cullors and spouse Janaya Khan ventured to Georgia to acquire a fourth home — a “custom ranch” on 3.2 rural acres in Conyers featuring a private airplane hangar with a studio apartment above it, and the use of a 2,500-foot “paved/grass” community runway that can accommodate small airplanes.

The three-bedroom, two-bath house, about 30 minutes from Atlanta, has an indoor swimming pool and a separate “RV shop” that can accommodate the repair of a mobile home or small aircraft, according to the real estate listing.

The Peach State retreat was purchased in January 2020 for $415,000, two years after the publication of Khan-Cullors’ best-selling memoir, “When They Call You a Terrorist.”

In October, the activist signed “a multi-platform” deal with Warner Bros. Television Group to help produce content for “black voices who have been historically marginalized,” she said in a statement.

It is not known how much Khan-Cullors received in compensation in either deal.

Khan-Cullors began her buying spree in L.A. in 2016, a few years after the civil rights movement she started from a hashtag — #blacklivesmatter — with fellow activists Alicia Garza and Opal Tometi began to gain traction around the world.

That year, she bought a three-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom home in Inglewood for $510,000. It is now worth nearly $800,000. Khan-Cullors added her wife, the co-founder of Black Lives Movement in Canada, to the deed in a family trust last year. The couple married in 2016.

Two years later, in 2018, Khan-Cullors purchased a four-bedroom home in South Los Angeles, a multi-ethnic neighborhood. Khan-Cullors paid $590,000 for the 1,725 square-foot home, although the price has since climbed to $720,000, according to public records.

Three of the homes were bought in Khan-Cullors’ name, and the Topanga Canyon property was purchased under a limited liability company that she controls, according to public records cited by “Dirt,” the real estate blog that first reported the March 30 purchase.

Last year, Khan-Cullors and Khan were spotted in the Bahamas looking for a unit at the Albany, a real estate source who did not want to be identified told The Post. The elite enclave is laid out on “600 oceanside acres” and features a private marina and designer golf course. Current homes for sale include a nearly 8,000 square-foot, six-bedroom townhouse with a media room and marina views. The price is only available upon request, according to the resort’s website.

“People who buy at the Albany are buying their fourth or fifth home,” said a resort worker who did not want to be identified. “This is not a second-home residence. It’s extremely high-end, and people are coming here for complete and total privacy.”

While it’s not clear if Khan-Cullors purchased a property at the island retreat for the super-rich, her mere interest shows just how far she has come from the hard-scrabble Van Nuys neighborhood in L.A. where she spent her childhood with two brothers and a younger sister.

In her memoir, Khan-Cullors describes growing up in a housing project less than a mile from the affluent and largely white neighborhood of Sherman Oaks, a community of wide lawns and pools where “there is nothing that does not appear beautiful and well kept.” The four kids were mostly raised by her single mother who worked 16 hours a day to support the family, she writes.

Growing up, Khan-Cullors lived in “a two-story, tan-colored building where the paint is peeling and where there is a gate that does not close properly and an intercom system that never works,” she writes. “The only place in my hood to buy groceries is a 7-Eleven.”

Khan-Cullors embraced activism and Marxism at a young age. “It started the year I turned twelve,” she writes. “That was the year that I learned that being black and poor defined me more than being bright and hopeful and ready.”

But she didn’t rise to national prominence until 2013, when she and two other activists protested the not-guilty verdict against George Zimmerman, who shot dead Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager in Florida.

Black Lives Matter protests erupted again in 2020 after the May killing of George Floyd, who died after a Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck during his arrest.

Donations and pledges from corporations and individuals poured into the movement at that point. In February, the BLM non-profit co-founded by Khan-Cullors told the AP that they took in $90 million in 2020, with $21.7 million committed to grant funding and helping 30 black-led groups across the country.

Black Lives Matter leaders would not specify how much money they took in from prominent donors, according to the AP report.

It’s also not clear how much Khan-Cullors makes in salary as one of the leaders of the movement, since its finances are split among both non-profit and for-profit entities and difficult to trace.

Founded by Khan-Cullors and another activist, Kailee Scales, the non-profit Oakland, Calif.-based BLM Global Network Foundation was incorporated in 2017 and claims to have chapters throughout the US, UK and Canada, and a mission “to eradicate White supremacy and build power to intervene in violence inflicted on Black communities.” The group does not have a federal tax exemption and donations are filtered through ActBlue Charities and Thousand Currents, two non-profits that manage the cash.

At the same time that the Khan-Cullors incorporated the non-profit, she also set up the similarly named BLM Global Network, a for-profit which is not required to disclose how much it spends or pays its executives.

Some have criticized the lack of transparency.

Newsome of NYC’s BLM said, “We need black firms and black accountants to go in there and find out where the money is going. He added that his group does not receive any financial support from the BLM Global Network.

Neither Khan-Cullors nor BLM Global Network Foundation returned requests for comment.

Thats beautiful...I was thinking all along that this "movement" was too lucrative and would soon be exploited financially from within and (hopefully) crumble.

It started back with the Atlanta chapter head.

BLM founders/leaders are corrupt crooks?

And here we go again. This only happens because the local government forces local LE to let it happen. If they jumped on these riots early and hard, they wouldn't happen.

It's still a full time job here.

The Chavin trial is almost to the halfway point as the prosecution is close to winding up their side. If you watch the news or just the headlines, it appears this is a slam dunk case. Reality is somewhat different if you watch the unedited version. The defense hasn't even started their side yet.
With the expectations likely high that he will be convicted, there is tremendous potential for massive rioting and other criminal activity. Activity that will be excused as justified no matter how the verdict turns out.

From the article linked above:

"Gannon said at a news conference that the officer made a mistake, and he released body camera footage from the officer who fired. The footage showed three officers around a stopped car. When another officer attempts to handcuff Wright, a struggle ensues. The officer is heard shouting “Taser!” several times before firing her weapon."

Media trying to tell the chief that the riot was not a riot. At least he didn't cower and apologize.

That said - doesn't look good for the officer in this case.

Bodycam from the officer.

What are the odds little Daunte was scrambling for a gun?
I think it is most likely.

Up and coming rapper, raps in his car with his gun.

Valedictorian, Daunte Wright

I typed a much longer response. But I'll just say I'm sympathetic to the officer. I hope she can recover from this.

How much money did the parents just became eligible for do you figure?

Floyd's family got 27 million I think?

Town's going to go broke with all of these payouts and expensive legal battles. Not to mention, I am sure these people all pay taxes (not).

Prayers for the cop... none for the thug.

After listening to the dem gov and mayors it doesn't look good for any cop in this state. Not a single word about resisting arrest. Not a single explanation about what the law requires of a citizens responsibility when they are being arrested. No job can be worth what these cops are about to go through. Again. You cant survive in this world. You will never be given a fair shake and you surely cant do your job with any possibility of success with backing like these democrats. The thin blue line needs to become the invisible blue line.

Why the always resisting? Why not do what the cop asks! Why always with the burning and looting as a result? Why not comply when you’ve broke the law?
