I Prayed have prayed
Father, there is so much going on that people do not know about or see. Bring these actions into the light. May those who seek to subvert or deceive be uncovered and made ineffective.

A largely unknown, massively funded strategy company pushing the interests of wealthy leftist donors has been quietly behind a hydra-like dark money network of pop-up groups designed to look like grassroots activist organizations. These front groups push everything from opposition to President Trump’s proposed border wall to support for Obamacare to gun control to government control of the Internet to pro-abortion activism and other leftwing causes.

The secretive Arabella Advisors may be one of the most impactful and sophisticated leftist funding outfits that you never heard of, a centralized hub that runs nonprofit arms that in turn have spawned a nexus of hundreds of front organizations outwardly designed to appear grassroots but that evidence the common theme of more government control in the lives of Americans.

Arabella’s vast network was unmasked in an extensive exposé by conservative watchdog Capital Research Center, which documents the shadowy system developed by, housed in, and staffed by the for-profit, privately held Arabella Advisors.

The Arabella firm in turn manages four nonprofits: the New Venture Fund, Sixteen Thirty Fund, Windward Fund, and Hopewell Fund. It is these nonprofit entities that play host to hundreds of groups and projects that promote interests and political movements strategically deployed in an ongoing campaign to nudge the country to the left.

Arabella’s nonprofits spent a combined $1.16 billion from 2013-2017 alone with the aim of advancing “the political policies desired by wealthy left-wing interests through hundreds of ‘front’ groups,” according to the report. “And those interests pay well: the network’s revenues grew by an incredible 392 percent over that same period.”

“Together, these groups form an interlocking network of ‘dark money’ pop-up groups and other fiscally sponsored projects, all afloat in a half-billion-dollar ocean of cash,” states the report. “The real puppeteer, though, is Arabella Advisors, which has managed to largely conceal its role in coordinating so much of the professional Left’s infrastructure under a mask of ‘philanthropy.’”

A specialty of the Arabella network seems to be the quick turnover of hundreds of “front” groups, especially websites timed to impact current events and designed to look like “grassroots” Astroturf organizations but that actually function as part of an orchestrated movement to advance the political interests of hidden leftist donors.

“At a glance, these groups — such as Save My Care and Protect Our Care — appeared to be impassioned examples of citizen activists defending ObamaCare,” according to the report. “In reality, neither ‘not-for-profit’ advocacy group appears to have paid staff, held board meetings, or even owned so much as a pen.”

In one case, an organization calling itself Demand Justice, founded by former members of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, quickly thrust itself into the center of opposition to Trump’s Supreme Court pick Brett Kavanaugh.

Even before Trump announced Kavanaugh as his nominee, Demand Justice committed to spending about $5 million to oppose the eventual pick. As soon as Kavanaugh’s name was selected, the organization immediately deployed an anti-Kavanaugh website and helped lead news making national activism during the confirmation hearings.

Yet what the news media missed is that Demand Justice is fiscally sponsored by the Sixteen Thirty Fund, one of Arabella’s nonprofits, as the Capital Research Center report reveals.

The report shows similar setups have spawned organizations that serve as the backbone of the Obamacare support network, promote gun control, support pro-abortion activism, champion open border policies, and even advocate for a centralized government role on the Internet.

Arabella nonprofits also evidence close financial workings with initiatives for the Democracy Alliance, another network of highly influential donors, including billionaire George Soros. Democracy Alliance itself coordinates funding to even more leftist outfits.

Arabella Advisors was founded by Eric Kessler, whose bio on the firm’s website identifies him as “a serial entrepreneur who has started, led, and advised organizations pursuing social change across the country and around the globe.”

Curiously missing from his official bio, but documented in the Capital Research Center report, is the detail that Kessler served as a member of the Clinton Global Initiative, an arm of the controversial Clinton Foundation.

The report concludes by asking, “Given that many of the groups managed by Arabella frequently call for transparency in the funding of campaigns and policy advocacy, they may first consider voluntarily disclosing their own funding sources. Why shouldn’t transparency begin at home?”

Joining my fervent prayer with those above….Having on the full armor of God, we are to STAND against our enemy Eph 6:13-18 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds.2 Cor 10:4

Heavenly Father, I ask You to fully expose the hidden evil agendas of these groups for all to see. We know satan works with deception because he has no real power and must depend on hidden agendas to fool the people. I ask that Your Light of Truth shine on these organizations and please give the people eyes to see what is really happening and who is truly behind this dark money network which is massive and has arms like an octopus. No weapon formed against Your people shall prosper. We come into agreement to pull down the satanic strongholds of the New World Order in Jesus Mighty Name knowing that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood but against Powers and Principalities, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against the spiritual wickedness in the heavenly places. We thank You for the weapons of our warfare which are not carnal but mighty through You for the pulling down of strongholds. Praise, glory, honor and thanks be to You, Father. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In the All Powerful Name of Jesus we pray. Amen

    I agree Sharon and add my voice to your prayer. May the enemy be exposed by the noon day sun.
    May God’s light be shed on this evil work. For the darkness can not comprehend the light. Lord, You say Your children perish for lack of knowledge. Lord, I ask that Holy Spirit open their eyes and minds. Give them the mind of Christ. Let them hear Your voice and know Your voice and not follow the voice of the enemy. We cast down these usurping spirits of false authority that raise their heads. As they try to speak, let the spirit behind the voice be exposed. We bind the spirit behind these lying voices. We say you are exposed and you are defeated in Jesus name. May you wither like the fig tree that has been cursed at the root. May you bear no fruit. May your coffers be drained. We say the finances of the unjust are laid up for the just and we call that transfer into existence now. Move these finances into the hands of the righteous ones You choose God. The ones You can trust to do Your work.

Father continue to expose and make people aware of these evil dark organizations. Bring swift judgment on these groups and their leaders. Remove the money flow. Let them dry up as flowers in the field.
Nevertheless, You will be done. In Jesus name.

God has appointed us to be watchmen — to sound out the warnings and to stand and pray against these Satanic powers, and the demonic minions. In these last days, our light will grow brighter and brighter in a dark and dying world. Let us NOT grow weary, nor discouraged, “. . . because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.” John 4:4 “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will NEVER leave you nor forsake you.” Deut 31:6 Amen!!
