John, I'm excited to share the latest from CRC with you:
- Meet the moms exposing "Woke" private schools
No school is safe from the radical Left’s ideology of racism, historical revisionism, and hatred. Most parents are familiar with how this disease -- dubbed "wokeism" -- has conquered public school systems in many states. But the woke curriculum is also overtaking private schools. CRC's Hayden Ludwig reports on Undercover Mothers -- heroic moms and dads nationwide who are exposing what's happening. Read more here.
- Who is the Soros-funded DA candidate in Alameda County?
In 2018, defense attorney Pamela Price -- with endorsements from radical activist Angela Davis -- lost a race for Alameda County (Calif.) District Attorney to the incumbent. During the campaign Price received support from the Soros-funded California Justice and Public Safety PAC, to which Soros has contributed $6.1 million since 2018. Now, Price is running again -- and so far she's unopposed. CRC's Parker Thayer investigates here.
- Why do so many foundations hide their investments?
An increasing number of private foundations are inserting political considerations into their investment portfolios, just as many already do in their grantmaking. These foundations should be prepared to weather public scrutiny of their investment choices. Yet some foundations do not publicly disclose their investments in detail --as IRS rules require -- perhaps to shield themselves from charges of hypocrisy. CRC's Robert Stilson calls for depoliticizing philanthropic giving here.

What is Arabella Advisors Holdings hiding?
Arabella Advisors likes to present itself as a smallish consultancy that helps apolitical do-gooders, even though its $1.7 billion nonprofit empire is the most powerful liberal lobbying force in Washington, DC. Previously unnoticed Arabella entities -- Arabella Acquisition LLC and Arabella Advisors Holdings LLC -- have appeared on the radar. Hayden Ludwig begins untangling the Arabella web here.

Instrument of Woke:
Neflix
The Left achieves its woke goals through the instruments of woke like Netflix. This video-streaming service exerts enormous leverage on the culture with its 207 million subscribers. It worked with the Obamas to create left-leaning films. It has also used its budget to produce documentaries pushing left-wing agenda items. It even partnered with Ibram X. Kendi to bring three of his books, including Antiracist Baby, to life on the screen.

InfluenceWatch Podcast 208
BlackRock Loves China
In this episode: Most Americans have heard the term “woke,” and many have heard it attached to businesses. But what American consumers may not know is that there's a man behind the "woke boardroom" movement who is very powerful, controls a lot of money, and has shown an interest in investing his clients' money in China rather than the U.S. His name is Larry Fink, and he's the CEO of BlackRock, a very large money management firm.
Consumers' Research, led by Will Hild, has exposed Fink's affinity for the Chinese Communist Party. Hild joins CRC's Sarah Lee to talk about his group's ad campaigns, websites, and public relations push to expose the tortured philosophy of Larry Fink.
