Democrat Senator Chris Murphy has been playing the concerned moderate on cable news for months, wringing his hands about "civil discourse" and the right to protest. Turns out he's been doing a lot more than hand-wringing — his political action committee has been cutting six-figure checks to the very organization driving those disruptive anti-ICE protests clogging our streets. According to American Wire News, Federal Election Commission documents show Murphy's PAC donated $100,000 to a left-wing group called Indivisible.
So when you see protesters physically blocking ICE agents from doing their jobs, just know — a sitting United States senator helped pay for the signs.
Indivisible, for the uninitiated, is the progressive outfit that sprang up after Trump's first election in 2016 with one mission: resist everything. Their own website proudly describes their work as "organizing against this fascistic clown show of a regime." Real subtle, folks. Real "peaceful protest" energy.
Murphy's recently rebranded PAC — now calling itself American Mobilization, because nothing says grassroots like a focus-grouped rebrand — funneled the $100,000 to Indivisible, which has been at the center of mass mobilization protests targeting Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations. The PAC has also partnered with organizations providing legal representation to undocumented immigrants in Texas and Minnesota.
Let that sink in. A U.S. senator is using donor money to fund groups that obstruct federal law enforcement and help illegal immigrants fight deportation. And then he goes on Sunday shows and acts shocked — shocked! — that people are angry.
The hypocrisy is so thick you could spread it on toast.
As one commenter on X put it perfectly: "If a Republican Senator was funding the Proud Boys," the FBI would've already kicked down the door. But when it's a Democrat bankrolling street-level obstruction of immigration enforcement? Crickets from the mainstream press. Another X user, @Teagan1776, didn't mince words either: "Essentially, he's funding terrorism against government officials."
Strong words? Maybe. But when FEC documents show a direct financial pipeline from a senator's fundraising operation to an organization whose stated purpose is disrupting federal law enforcement, what exactly would you call it?
It gets better. Indivisible has ties to some truly lovely characters. The People's Forum, another left-wing organization in this orbit, was founded by Neville Roy Singham — a self-proclaimed Marxist with alleged foreign ties. These are the people Murphy's donor dollars are keeping company with.
Murphy, of course, hasn't addressed the FEC filings directly. He doesn't have to — because the media that should be grilling him about this is too busy asking Republicans to condemn mean tweets.
Here's the bottom line: Chris Murphy isn't just sympathizing with the anti-ICE mob from the comfort of his Senate office. He's signing the checks. He's funding the chaos. And every single donor who gave money to his PAC thinking it was going toward electing Democrats should be asking where their cash actually ended up — in a campaign war chest, or in the pockets of people blocking federal agents from enforcing the law.
Follow the money. It never lies.
