Members of Congress are raising concerns about a surge in pro-Chinese Communist Party propaganda and rhetoric in the U.S., citing organizations tied to Shanghai-based Marxist mogul Neville Roy Singham.
During interviews with Fox News Digital, a number of House and Senate members warned that nonprofits funded by Singham may be sowing discord in the U.S. by promoting communist propaganda and anti-American rhetoric.
«When you talk about the non-profits, you have to look at how China adversely uses or how China uses our non-profit 501(c)(3) status organizations to work as. CCP influencers,» Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., told Fox News Digital.

«Singham’s group is one of these, as they try to spread and influence other organizations and participate with other organizations in protests, in demonstrations that are going to create chaos in the streets of U.S. cities,» she said.

«When it comes to China specifically, they have used soft propaganda as a main point of entry with the United States,» she added.
According to a Fox News Digital investigation, Singham has funneled $278 million into the broad network of nonprofits since 2017. Officials from the Justice, State and Treasury departments are investigating financial activity tied to the network, including $22.5 million in funding directed to a group called The People’s Forum.
Singham’s wife, Jodie Evans, is the co-founder of CodePink, a nonprofit that received $1.33 million from Singham, according to the Fox News Digital investigation. Over the years, CodePink has supported communist regimes, including the Chinese Communist Party and Cuba’s government.

While CodePink’s funding comes directly from Singham, not the government of China, critics allege that the difference is without a distinction.
«CodePink are AstroTurf weirdos bought and paid for by Communist China. They get their money from the most oppressive regime on the planet,» Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., told Fox News Digital. «They’re a joke.»
CodePink filed an ethics complaint against Hawley for what he said was simply «exposing that they take blood money from China.»
Members of Congress raised concerns about how CodePink and the Singham network are able to operate without registering under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), which requires individuals doing public relations, engaging in political work or lobbying for any foreign government to disclose activities and finances to the Department of Justice.

«How they’re not registered under FARA is hard to understand because they’re very consistent. I mean, let’s at least give them credit for that,» Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart, R-Fla., told Fox News Digital.
Even former members of Congress and Capitol Hill staffers are required to register under FARA if they lobby for a country or organization backed by a foreign country.
«It should be no surprise that, whether it’s folks associated with the Communist Party of China or, frankly, other anti-American groups, would be funding these groups in the United States. [These groups’] sole role is pretty evident, to protect, defend and support anti-Americans,» he added. «Whether it is terrorist groups [or] terrorist regimes like the one in Iran or the one in Cuba.»

Singham sold his technology consulting company, Thoughtworks, in 2017 for an estimated $785 million and moved to Shanghai. In 2023, The New York Times published an exposé that connected him to the CCP and chronicled his determination to spread his radical, anti-West ideology in the U.S. and across the globe.
In its investigation, Fox News Digital followed the money trail and network that Singham uses to promote communist and Marxist ideologies among Americans, finding that he established an organizing hub in the U.S. with actions against Immigration and Customs Enforcement and protests against Israel, the U.S. and the nation’s domestic and foreign policies.
«The real crux of the matter is the genesis of that money — is [Singham] really that rich,» Rep. Carlos Gimenez, R-Fla., asked Fox News Digital. «Or is it a false rich that, yeah, he’s got a billion dollars, but the billion dollars came from China communist China that they are actually funneling him, and then making believe, ‘Oh, no, he made that on his own.’ We’ve got to find out exactly where that money came from.»

Gimenez also noted what other lawmakers are pointing out: Individual agitators and demonstrators, in addition to Singham himself, are not registered with the Justice Department’s FARA office.
While Singham’s dealings have been investigated by a number of Congressional committees in the past, his residence in Shanghai shields him from being subpoenaed to appear before Congress
House Ways & Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith, R-Mo., has described Singham as «an individual who lives in Shanghai, maintains business ties with companies and individuals linked to the CCP, works with and physically alongside a foreign propaganda company, and attends CCP forums on how to promote the party abroad.»

Russia launches ballistic missile attack on Kyiv hours after Zelenskyy warns of major strike
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Russia launched a ballistic missile attack on Ukraine’s capital early Thursday, with multiple explosions reported across Kyiv, according to Ukrainian officials.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko urged residents to seek shelter as blasts rocked the city. Reuters, citing a witness, reported hearing multiple explosions.
The Ukrainian Air Force also said Russia was targeting the capital with ballistic missiles.

Klitschko later said several non-residential sites caught fire following the strikes. There were no immediate reports of casualties.
The attack came just hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that Russia appeared to be preparing a major overnight assault.
«I received a report from Air Force Commander Anatolii Kryvonozhko,» Zelenskyy wrote on X Wednesday, saying Russia had prepared a «massive attack several days ago» and that there was a «high probability» it would be carried out overnight.

«It is important that our partners fully understand what is happening and that the protection of lives directly depends on their readiness, or lack thereof, to help us with air defense missiles,» Zelenskyy said.
The Ukrainian president made the appeal after returning from the United States, where he met with President Donald Trump.
Trump recently announced at the NATO summit in Turkey that the United States would license Ukraine to manufacture Patriot air defense systems, according to The Associated Press.
«First and foremost, this concerns the United States and those partners that have Patriot missiles and can provide them to support our defense,» Zelenskyy wrote.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche’s chances of confirmation were derailed Wednesday, less than 24 hours before a pivotal vote in the Senate.
It’s another chapter in the troubled saga that has followed Blanche since he was tapped to replace former Attorney General Pam Bondi and one that boils down to issues among Blanche, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and two key Republicans who control his fate in the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Senators John Cornyn, R-Texas, and Thom Tillis, R-N.C., are demanding that the DOJ provide explicit, written proposals to modify the settlement deal reached between the IRS and President Donald Trump and his family earlier this year.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., had hoped a deal could be struck and allow for the confirmation to move forward, eying next week as the major floor vote to formally confirm Blanche as Bondi’s replacement.
«I think that that’s an issue between, right now, the White House and Senators Cornyn and Tillis,» Thune said. «But, yeah, I would encourage them to sit down, which I think they are, and try to come to a resolution there so that the markup can continue tomorrow, and we can get Todd Blanche ready for the floor.»
The DOJ had until 4 p.m. Wednesday to get the lawmakers what they wanted, but the agency fell short, and Blanche’s bumpy carriage ride to confirmation turned into a pumpkin.
Without a guarantee that Cornyn or Tillis would vote to confirm Blanche, Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, opted to postpone the hearing until a later date.
Their targets are the now-defunct, nearly $2 billion anti-weaponization fund and the president’s audit immunity. Republicans and Democrats alike railed against the fund, particularly over concerns that the funding would go to people involved in the Jan. 6, 2021, riots on Capitol Hill.
Trump’s audit immunity has similarly ruffled feathers. Blanche, in his announcement of the settlement deal earlier this year, outlined that, as part of the agreement, the IRS would not be allowed to audit Trump, his family or affiliated companies.
DEMS REJECT TRUMP’S TOP SPY PICK AFTER DEMANDING REPLACEMENT, LEAVING COUNTER-TERROR TOOL IN AIR
Cornyn has proven the most resistant until his demands are met. He’s used his newfound freedom to extract concessions from the Trump administration in recent weeks.
His push for an explicit end to the audit language in the settlement agreement is another such example. The longtime lawmaker, who will exit the Senate at the end of this year after being ousted by the Trump-backed Ken Paxton, was set to meet Blanche Wednesday morning.
But the confab was called off, and Blanche continued making the rounds in the Senate throughout the day, capping off his visit to the Capitol with Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso, R-Wyo. He declined to comment to reporters on his way out.
Cornyn said it was «made clear from the outset that we expected some written proposals to modify the release that was signed in the tax dispute with President Trump and his organization.»
«We need to conform the actual document to what Todd Blanche testified under oath as the president’s acting attorney general,» Cornyn said. «We’ve had two meetings scheduled that have now been canceled because they have not been responsive in providing those written documents.»

Trump, when asked about the holdup in the Senate for Blanche, portrayed himself as a president at an arm’s length from the situation and said he heard his attorney general pick was «going through quite nicely.»
«Well, all I can say is Todd Blanche is outstanding. And I thought he’s — I thought it was pretty routine because he’s so good,» Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. «You just wouldn’t find a better person. So, I don’t know, maybe John Cornyn is upset with me because I didn’t endorse him. I don’t know what it is, but I haven’t heard that there’s a problem.»
Tillis made clear he doesn’t «have a beef with DOJ or with Blanche.»
«They’re trying to get it done, but still gotta get it done,» Tillis said.
He also noted that the number of hurdles that getting those kinds of written proposals through was more extensive than meets the eye. For example, Tillis said the actual settlement likely was signed by the president’s lawyer and not Trump himself.

«So there’s, you know, there’s a circle of people that have to go through the loop,» he said. «And I get that, but, you know, if we can get it done or possibly get him reported out on Tuesday, if they schedule a markup, I would support that if we get the language.»

El subdirector adjunto del Buró Federal de Investigaciones (FBI, por sus siglas en inglés), Andrew Bailey, visitó Guatemala este 29 de julio para reforzar la cooperación bilateral en seguridad y justicia, en una agenda que incluyó una reunión con el presidente Bernardo Arévalo

En un video divulgado por la Embajada de Estados Unidos en Guatemala, Bailey afirmó: “Estoy aquí en la Ciudad de Guatemala para fortalecer la alianza bilateral en materia de seguridad entre Estados Unidos y Guatemala”.
El funcionario estadounidense también vinculó esa cooperación con la línea política del presidente Donald Trump, en la que resalta la prioridad de proteger el territorio estadounidense mediante la desarticulación de organizaciones criminales y la detención de personas que representen una amenaza para la seguridad del país.
“Esto refleja el compromiso del presidente Trump con la política de ‘Estados Unidos primero’ y con la protección de la nación estadounidense, mediante el desmantelamiento de organizaciones criminales y la detención de terroristas antes de que puedan amenazar las fronteras y comunidades de Estados Unidos”, manifestó Bailey en su mensaje.

“La cooperación y la colaboración se fortalecen para enfrentar juntos las amenazas del crimen transnacional y seguir construyendo instituciones al servicio de nuestros pueblos”, resaltó el mandatario guatemalteco.
