Some of the largest charities in the world are bankrolling a pair of nonprofit organizations that serve as the parent organizations for a group encouraging jury nullification and “non-cooperation” with law enforcement in the nation’s capital, a Washington Examiner review of tax disclosures has found.

Between 2020 and 2024, the most recent year for which information is available, mainstream philanthropies, foundations headed by major Democratic donors, Democrat-aligned dark money groups, major labor unions, and nonprofit group grant makers linked to the family of liberal megadonor George Soros have pumped roughly $40 million into the Center for Community Change and Community Change Action, records show. Community Change and Community Change Action serve as the parent organizations to Free DC, a local group that critics have accused of encouraging jury nullification in politically sensitive cases.
