Obama Foundation sent millions to Tides network tied to far-left groups

The Obama Foundation has funneled millions of dollars to a progressive grant-making network now under congressional scrutiny for backing anti-Israel groups linked to campus protests, according to newly released tax filings.

Federal records show that in 2022 and 2023, the foundation directed $2 million to the Tides Foundation, money earmarked to “support local organizations that are working to reduce violence in communities.”

But Tides, which is also heavily funded by Democratic donor George Soros, has been flagged by the House Ways and Means Committee for sponsoring groups like the Adalah Justice Project, Samidoun, an the People’s Forum—all of which have supported pro-Palestinian encampments at Ivy League schools following the October 7 Hamas terror attack on Israel.
