Patagonia backs this dark money hub behind pro-Hamas protests

Patagonia’s private foundation, which is under fire due to a Washington Examiner report on its funding of a Palestinian terrorism-linked group, directed millions of dollars to a left-wing dark money network behind pro-Hamas activism across the United States.

Over the last decade, Patagonia’s foundation in California has sent more than $17 million combined to the Tides Foundation and the Tides Center, a pair of affiliated nonprofit groups bankrolled by Democratic megadonors such as Bill Gates and George Soros. These two entities, which are part of a sprawling Tides network that utilizes an opaque funding structure to fuel progressive causes, help keep the lights on for Hamas-sympathetic organizations calling for the dismantling of Israel.
