Rep. Bill Huizenga, R-Mich., chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on South and Central Asia, explains how Neville Roy Singham is connected to agitator groups like CodePink.
FIRST ON FOX: Chairman Jason Smith, R-Mo., and the House Ways and Means Committee are pressing the IRS to strip a California nonprofit of its tax-exempt status, alleging the Middle East Children’s Alliance has ties to organizations linked to a Foreign Terrorist Organization and the Neville Roy Singham’s pro-CCP network, citing increasingly opaque foreign grant disclosures.
In a letter to Internal Revenue Service CEO Frank Bisignano, Smith and all GOP members of the committee are calling for an investigation and the revocation of the Middle East Children’s Alliance tax-exempt status after the committee says it found alarming ties to the Popular Front for the Liberation of the Palestine (PFLP) territories, a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization.
“Our investigation uncovered alarming connections between the Middle East Children’s Alliance (MECA) and organizations and individuals linked directly to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization,” Smith told Fox News Digital in a statement.

“Even more concerning, as MECA’s annual foreign grantmaking exploded from roughly $1.8 million to more than $10 million after the Hamas terrorist attacks on October 7, 2023, their paper trail showing in which that money went practically vanished,” he added. “In 2024, MECA reported a staggering $4.4 million foreign wire transfer without naming the recipient or even a specific country and, in 2025, they did not provide a description for any of the 38 foreign grants they made that year, which totaled over $11 million.”
Smith and committee Republicans note that tax-exempt status is a privilege, not a right, and that they believe the Middle East Children’s Alliance does not qualify for the status.
The letter also notes connections between Neville Roy Singham’s pro-CCP network and the Middle East Children’s Alliance.
“The People’s Forum, Inc., a tax-exempt organization which I subpoenaed on July 24, 2026, following its refusal to comply with ongoing Committee requests to produce documents, 15 reported a grant of $16,420 to MECA in tax year 2024, described as a “Humanitarian Relief Fundraiser,” Smith’s letter read.

JIM BANKS, GOP LAWMAKERS RALLY BEHIND DOJ PROBE INTO ALLEGED CCP-LINKED FUNDING NETWORK
Fox News Digital reached out to the Middle East Children’s Alliance, the People’s Forum and Singham but didn’t receive responses.
Fox News Digital exclusively obtained a new bombshell report from the Network Contagion Research Institute, a nonprofit based in Princeton, New Jersey, which shows connections between the Singham network and a number of radical organizations designated as Foreign Terrorist Organizations.
The Middle East Children’s Alliance is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Berkeley, California, with a mission to “support children and families in Palestine, Iraq and Lebanon.”

The Network Contagion Research Institute alleges that the Middle East Children’s Alliance has ties “through personnel and civil society groups” to the PFLP, which has been designated a Foreign Terrorist Organization by the U.S. since 1997.
Middle East Children’s Alliance “features some of the same individuals, and counts members of Congress, prominent senators and America’s most prestigious foundations… among its supporters and funders,” Network Contagion Research Institute co-founder and Chief Science Officer Joel Finkelstein told Fox News Digital.

“This is an organization that has provided resources to senior leadership of the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades and the PFLP, a U.S.-designated foreign terrorist organization, while radicalizing American children and funding jihadist propaganda,” Finkelstein added.
The Network Contagion Research Institute cited a 1993 U.S. Agency for International Development report authored by Dr. Glenn E. Robinson, where Robinson linked three organizations who support the PFLP to the Middle East Children’s Alliance.

“Shut It Down for Palestine,” a coalition of nonprofits led by the People’s Forum, describes its group’s core mission as increasing “the pressure with more marches, walk-outs, sit-ins and other forms of direct action directed at the political offices, businesses and workplaces that fund, invest and collaborate with Israeli genocide and occupation.”
Earlier this year, “Shut It Down for Palestine” directly linked a fundraising tab on the coalition’s website to a fundraiser hosted by the Middle East Children’s Alliance titled, “International Fundraiser: The People Stand with Gaza.” The initiative has a goal of $2 million and has raised roughly $1.75 million as of Tuesday.

In the fundraiser’s description, the Middle East Children’s Alliance notes that the People’s Forum, among others, helped launch the fundraiser.
A Fox News Digital investigation found that tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham contributed $22.5 million in direct funding to the People’s Forum, a pro-China nonprofit that purchased a New York City headquarters for $5.15 million, according to property records.
RUBIO’S CALL TO COMBAT GLOBAL FUNDERS OF FAR-LEFT TERRORISM COULD PUT SINGHAM IN CROSSHAIRS
In 2004, IRS documents show that the Middle East Children’s Alliance also made a $1,000 payment to the ANSWER Coalition, a Marxist organization with ties to Singham, for a stage rental.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio highlights the underestimation of far-left political violence at a Washington, D.C. State Department summit. Fox News contributor Joe Concha expands on this concern, citing a poll revealing 56% of Democrats and 25% of very liberal adults justify violence for political goals. He discusses recent incidents, including an assassination attempt on Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
In an address to about 60 countries in July, Secretary of State Marco Rubio noted that far-left networks are coordinating across multiple countries, providing training instructions and using encrypted communication to facilitate unrest. He said that international cooperation is critical to disrupting the financing of dangerous organizations, and that some networks are working with hostile foreign states.
