Sen. Banks Calls Out Neville Roy Singham’s Alleged Pro-CCP Activities

6 days ago 0

Senator Jim Banks from Indiana addressed the Senate, highlighting concerns about Neville Roy Singham. He described Singham as a “communist tech tycoon” whose nonprofit network purportedly aids China’s “political warfare” against the U.S.

Singham, aged 72, previously sold his tech company in 2017 for $785 million. He now resides in Shanghai. Since 2017, he has allegedly directed $278 million into numerous nonprofits, according to a Fox News Digital investigation. These organizations are said to frequently host and join protests against ICE, Israel, and in support of Iran.

“From his Shanghai office, which he shares with a CCP propaganda outlet whose avowed mission is to ‘tell China’s story well,’ Singham began funding a complex network of left-wing NGOs and nonprofits that advance the interests of the Chinese Communist Party,” Banks stated.

Code Pink, co-founded by Singham’s wife, Jodie Evans, has shifted its stance over time. Once critical of Chinese human rights issues, the group now defends China, Banks indicated.

During a recent confrontation, Code Pink targeted Sen. Rick Scott regarding the conflict in Iran. Scott asked if the group was concerned about the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel. Code Pink did not respond.

In his speech, Banks also referenced Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s comments. Rubio has been vocal about the need to address what he describes as “far-left political terrorism” linked internationally. He emphasized the importance of stopping the funding of such groups, some allegedly affiliated with hostile states.

“For far too long, however, our counterterrorism doctrine has had a blind spot – a blind spot when it comes to extremist violence from the political left,” Rubio remarked. “Even today, the very idea that far-left terrorism could be a serious threat is treated as a right-wing fever dream, or worse, as a dangerous fascist conspiracy.”

Singham is currently under investigation by a grand jury in New York’s Southern District, a process approved by acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. The probe focuses on Singham’s finances, aiming to detect any financial crimes linked to his pro-CCP nonprofit network. No charges have been filed against Singham so far.

Earlier, in a meeting in New York, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urged Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon to support the Justice Department’s probe into Singham’s financial dealings. The interaction was reportedly cordial, and Goldman Sachs has expressed its willingness to cooperate.

A spokesperson for Goldman Sachs reported to Fox News Digital that “all distributions from Mr. Singham’s donor-advised fund were made to legally recognized nonprofit organizations, as determined by the IRS.” The account has been inactive since August 2023 and was closed in early 2024.
