House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith just issued subpoenas to three left-wing nonprofits, the People’s Forum, BreakThrough News, and Tricontinental Institute for Social Research, demanding records on more than $𝟑𝟗 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 in funding traced back to Neville Singham, a self-described Marxist tycoon who built his fortune off Chinese Communist Party-linked tech companies and now lives in Shanghai.
The committee first asked for these records back in 2025. All three groups refused to comply voluntarily, which is why subpoenas are now on the table with a hard deadline: turn over the documents by 𝐀𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝟕 or face contempt proceedings. Investigators want to know whether shell companies were used to launder the money’s origin and whether the tax code’s charitable exemptions are being exploited to funnel foreign cash into American activism.
This isn’t Singham’s only headache. The Justice Department opened its own 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐣𝐮𝐫𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐞 into the same money trail weeks ago, examining whether his network helped bankroll left-wing unrest at home. One China hawk on the Hill has called Singham an outright “𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘰𝘳” and wants the DOJ to lock him up.
The three organizations deny wrongdoing and are framing the subpoenas as a First Amendment fight. But the pattern is familiar: a billionaire who lives under an authoritarian government quietly wires tens of millions of dollars into American nonprofits that then show up organizing the loudest anti-American demonstrations in the country (House Ways and Means Committee).
