The figure of Zohran Mamdani presents himself as a champion of the downtrodden, railing against “billionaires” and pledging radical redistribution of wealth. Yet fresh forensic reporting reveals a glaring contradiction: millions of dollars from George Soros-linked networks have reportedly flowed into the machine that elevated Mamdani, casting serious doubt on both his authenticity and the transparency of his political apparatus.
A recent investigative report has sparked major controversy, claiming that organizations tied to billionaire George Soros quietly directed a staggering $40 million to promote the political ascent of Zohran Mamdani, a rising figure in American politics.
According to the findings, Soros’s charities orchestrated a sophisticated operation to “launder” charitable dollars through tax-exempt nonprofit organizations, subsequently channeling those funds directly into campaign field efforts, door knocking, and volunteer mobilization—all activities prohibited for 501(c)(3) organizations under U.S. law.
Sam Antar, a convicted felon and fraud investigator who now lectures for government agencies, filed eleven whistleblower complaints with the IRS, presenting a trove of records spotlighting how Soros foundations funded not issue-driven civic engagement, but coordinated efforts explicitly backing Mamdani. In his words, “They weren’t advocating for general issues—they were pushing one candidate. That crosses the line.”
The report dissects how millions were shuffled from tax-exempt 501(c)(3) groups to affiliated 501(c)(4) entities, which enjoy more political leeway, but are still forbidden from direct candidate support. The same leftist nonprofit “partners” listed progressive alliances publicly, then quietly denied any campaign coordination while filling out federal disclosures—a pattern Antar calls not oversight, but “systematic fraud.”
Soros’s Open Society Foundation angrily dismissed the claims as “misinformation,” arguing the referenced grants predated the campaign—yet the documentation, according to Antar, indicates deliberately coordinated ground campaigns and a “machine” mimicking infamous political syndicates like Tammany Hall, now supercharged to produce national-scale candidates.
White Collar Fraud claims this shadow network knocked 100,000 doors for Mamdani, built a mass volunteer base, and intends to replicate this assembly-line approach nationwide for progressives. “We’re seeing just the tip of a much bigger iceberg,” the report warns, calling for federal subpoenas and investigations to expose the entirety of this alleged political enterprise.
Islamist Organizations With Terror Links And China-Linked Entities Funding Zohran
A recent Fox News report uncovers an extensive network powering Zohran Mamdani’s ascent as a leading candidate for New York City mayor. Investigators have labeled this web of groups the “Mamdani Machine”—a vast coalition comprising 110 different organizations, including socialists, advocacy groups for Muslims and South Asians, and Democratic Party affiliates. The network draws financial backing from high-profile philanthropists such as George Soros, the Ford Foundation, and the MacArthur Foundation.
The investigation by journalist Asra Nomani (for Fox News and the Daniel Pearl Project) maps Mamdani’s evolution from activism in college through to his current campaign, alleging that his rise has been strategically driven by a partnership crossing socialist, Islamic, and Democratic circles. Many individuals linked to the network face allegations of anti-Israel and antisemitic sentiments. Nomani reports following these organizations and their actors for over two decades.
At the core of the funding effort are four major socialist-aligned groups, including the Democratic Socialists of America and PACs directly supporting Mamdani. A cluster of thirty Muslim and South Asian organizations—ranging from national lobbying entities to religious centers—are embedded within Mamdani’s campaign infrastructure. These groups manage resources, endorsements, and field efforts, some of which have controversial backgrounds. Notably, some are led by individuals previously implicated or accused of extremist positions or ties.
Additionally, seventy-six Democratic-aligned organizations give the coalition significant muscle, with major unions and influential national progressive entities all contributing logistical and financial resources. DNC affiliates, union groups, and progressive outfits like MoveOn and The Nation are listed as significant players pushing Mamdani’s campaign forward.
Tracing the timeline, Mamdani’s political activity dates back to student activism in 2012. In subsequent years, he became more active in New York’s Muslim political circles, joining boards that bolstered his donor base and organizational reach. Nomani’s reporting highlights how these groups funneled millions in grants, particularly channeled from Soros’s Open Society Foundations, through nonprofits closely associated with Mamdani’s campaign circle.
After winning a seat in the New York State Assembly in 2020 with help from socialist and Muslim advocacy organizations, Mamdani launched his mayoral run powered by the organized efforts of these 110 groups. His campaign slogan, “Defend and Advance,” is also the name of a connected SuperPAC.
The article also points out the involvement of donors linked to controversial figures, including family members of Neville Roy Singham (a billionaire with ties to radical anti-Israel and Marxist groups) and tech leaders who have attracted national security concerns. CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) and ICNA (Islamic Circle of North America), both cited for problematic affiliations, have directed substantial funding to Mamdani’s operations.
Mamdani’s campaign has amassed both large private donations and multimillion-dollar public matching funds. Much of this financial support originates from outside New York City, underlining the national reach of the coalition. City finance authorities are currently conducting audits of all campaigns, including Mamdani’s.
The article concludes by warning about the potent blend of ideological activism, religious group mobilization, and financial engineering represented by the Mamdani Machine. Critics say the coalition has deeply entrenched itself within the Democratic Party and could reshape the power dynamics of urban and national American politics. The investigation is based largely on an X thread by Asra Nomani.
