Patrisse Cullors: Martyr to the IRS

American Thinker:

By Robyn Dolgin

Patrisse Cullors admits she’s made a “few mistakes” as the ugly headlines continue to mount over her scandalous spending as the disgraced former leader of Black Lives Matter.

She attempted to keep a lid on her self-authorized spending for several years, but the IRS simply couldn’t be ignored for another fiscal year. (The group hadn’t filed since 2017 and was forced to halt collection of donations.)

Once the bad news broke in a public tax filing last week, Cullors couldn’t be bothered to address the allegations of her being at the center of a multi-million dollar grifter project, but rather she doubled down on the absurd claim of being cast in the role of “victim.”

“Weaponizing against black women,” was the ex-leader’s way of explaining the IRS’s routine demand for a 990 form from the world-famous “social justice” network for purposes of fiscal accountability.

Apparently, her hand got caught in the “non-profit” cash register, but Cullors viewed her generous six-digit payments to friends and family for “various services” in a different light. “We didn’t figure out how to protect ourselves.” says Cullors in an interview at Vashon Center for the Arts in Washington. “And what’s true often, especially for black women is we don’t protect ourselves first.”

  1. Actually a bit surprised she’s being pursued by the IRS at all. I mean, BLM is a protected species of the left and the IRS is a tool of the left now.

    What’s the real story?

  2. She must not have been on the approved gov’t grift list. It’ll be fine for her once a few phone calls to the right people are made. The “mistake” she made was stealing from the gov’t right out in the open like that.

  3. Nothing will come of it.
    Sharpton’s gotten away with tax fraud for decades – I believe (could be wrong) that Jesse Jackson has, too, with his Operation Push – as well as Obola with all his ill-gotten lucre.

    The IRS is wielded with discrimination, shall we say?

  4. I trust the IRS to do the right thing. (NOT).
    I trust the DOJ, FBI, ATF, NSA, Pelosi, Schumer, McCONnell, MacCarthy and Biden to do the right thing for our Nation. (NOT)
    When the government is corrupt, their allies are given carte blanch to extort $Millions, as long as they follow the most basic rules of the IRS.

    Yep, they made a colossal mistake, The BIG Guy didn’t get his 10%.

  5. When you let emotions rule you, you are a fool.
    The people who gave money to BLM were/are fools. I pity fools, and only hope they learn their lesson. It seems unlikely.

    Always investigate your charity before contributing – how much goes to the work of the charity, how much goes to administration, etc.

    “Fools and their money are soon parted.”

  6. …in fairness, what she did isn’t any more stupid or evil or lying than what Pedo and his family do on a daily basis, and I don’t see the IRS investigating THEM…

  7. I don’t consider individuals who support BLM to be defined by their foolishness. I consider them motivated by malicious intent. Even the stupidest of the fuckers don’t get a pass from me.
