Far-left agitator who organized MN church storming raked in over $1 million from anti-poverty nonprofit

Far-left agitator Nekima Levy Armstrong, who was one of the organizers of the storming of a Minnesota church to protest ICE on Sunday, raked in over $1 million during six years leading a Minneapolis civil rights nonprofit that addresses anti-poverty issues.

Armstrong, whose website identifies her as a civil rights lawyer and "scholar-activist," helped to organize the storming of Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, on Sunday.

In a Facebook post, she claimed that one of the church’s pastors is a leader at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The demonstration is one of many throughout the Twin Cities in protest of the federal government’s surge of immigration enforcement officials to crack down on widespread fraud taking place in the state.

Armstrong, who is currently the founder and CEO of a cannabis company called Dope Roots, led the nonprofit as executive director for at least six years, from 2019 through 2024, according to tax filings by the Wayfinder Foundation.

The 2024 tax filing shows that despite the foundation being dedicated to giving grants to anti-poverty community initiatives, it awarded just $158,811 that year, while Armstrong brought in a salary of $215,726. She also took an additional $40,548 in health benefits, benefit plan contributions and deferred compensation, according to the 2024 filing.

Looks like we are paying both the ICE Agents and Protestors.

Only in America.

Is there something wrong with her being involved in a non profit?

So, what was the rest of the balance sheet? This is specific, only $700K in grants against a roughly $200K/yr. salary. Were there other expenses? Was the giving out of grants the purpose? I have no idea, personally, but applying critical thinking is important, especially in these times, when everyone wants a "Gotcha" moment to "prove" their opponents are corrupt and therefore should not be listened to.

The facts don't prove a crime by any means. It just shows a need for an audit to see how the Grant funds were spent.

Non profits are nothing more than Democrat party money laundering centers!  Government is too corrupt to fund charities!

TIME TO ROUND UP RIGHT-WING AGITATORS AND PUT THEM IN ICE DETENTION CENTERS.

  Jw2 proves himself a Nazi!

Democrats' ancestors, the world's corrupt, did reject the truth Jesus spoke, and Democrats continue to do so today!

Even today, Democrats side with the pedophile religion known as Islam!

Information regarding Trump family nonprofits and associated compensation involves a mix of dissolved entities, personal involvement in outside charities, and, more recently, political, for-profit ventures that have raised questions about "cashing in."

The Donald J. Trump Foundation (Defunct): This foundation was dissolved in 2018 following allegations of "persistent legal misconduct," including self-dealing and improper political influence. A New York investigation led to a $2 million settlement, with funds distributed to other non-profits, and the foundation was shuttered. The foundation reported no paid staff and almost no administrative expenses while operating.

The Eric Trump Foundation (Redesigned): While this foundation originally operated to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, reports surfaced that it shifted funds to the Trump Organization by using Trump-owned golf courses for events, often without charge, while encouraging other donors to contribute.

Other Nonprofits/Allied Entities:

Trump Family Trust: Reported $0 in officer compensation in some filings.

Conservative Partnership Institute (CPI): A Trump-allied nonprofit, which has been reported to pay millions to firms run by insiders.
RNC Compensation: Lara Trump, co-chair of the RNC, receives an annual salary of $163,000.

Non-Profit & Political Organization Salaries

While the core family foundations do not typically pay the family members directly, they are compensated through other political or allied nonprofit structures:

Lara Trump: As co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC), she receives an annual salary of $163,000.

Trump-Allied Nonprofits: Organizations such as the Conservative Partnership Institute (allied with Trump figures) have paid significant salaries to executives; for example, CEO Ed Denton received $391,735 in annual compensation.

Legal & Advisory Roles: Jay Sekulow, a longtime attorney for Donald Trump, and his family were paid millions through a network of nonprofits like the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ).
