Summary
$47,000 in federal campaign donations from Neville Roy Singham and Jodie Evans went to Bernie Sanders and House progressives including Pramila Jayapal, Ilhan Omar and Chuy García, according to FEC records cited by Fox News Digital.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent earlier met Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon in New York and urged cooperation with federal investigators examining alleged conspiracy in the funneling of Singham-linked money.
Goldman said all distributions from Singham's donor-advised fund went to legal nonprofits, no money has left the account since August 2023, and the fund was closed in early 2024.
Fox said Singham directed $285 million after selling ThoughtWorks to nonprofits and media groups including The People's Forum, CodePink and BreakThrough News, while multiple federal and congressional probes remain open.
Singham, an American citizen living in Shanghai with Evans, has not been charged, but the widening scrutiny ties campaign donations, protest networks and alleged pro-China influence efforts into one investigation.
