The presence of this funding demonstrates once again that behind the protests against ICE, far from there being casual demonstrators, there are organized extreme left-wing groups with significant financial backing.
Meanwhile, the protests have not been driven solely by Indivisible Twin Cities. Another of the most visible actors in the demonstrations has been the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR, for its initials in English), whose Minnesota chapter has played an active role in the protests. The leader of this antisemitic and pro-Palestine group, Jaylani Hussein, has been a frequent speaker at events against ICE.
The connection of these groups with significant funding from figures such as George Soros shows that behind the protests there are radical left-wing organizations financed by external actors with the objective of creating chaos and attempting to destabilize the government of Donald Trump.
This type of accusation has become part of the public debate surrounding the protests in Minnesota, and the U.S. president himself recently stated that he will investigate to find out who is financing the extremist organizations.
An extreme left-wing group that received funding close to 7.8 million dollars from progressive billionaire George Soros is linked to the protests against the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service(ICE) in Minnesota, according to U.S. media reports.
This is Indivisible Twin Cities, which presents itself as an organization made up of volunteers, and has been one of the main organizers of the protests against ICE operations in Minnesota, where Renee Good died after attempting to run over an agent of that agency with her vehicle.
The extreme left-wing group is part of a broader structure, since it is a branch of the Indivisible project based in Washington, D.C., a movement that publicly promotes itself as a tool to defeat what it calls the "Trump agenda."
According to public records, between 2018 and 2023, this project received a total of 7,850,000 dollars from Open Society Foundations, the organization linked to the left-wing billionaire George Soros.
