The Shady, Stagnant Wealth That Supports Hamas

David Rockefeller Jr.'s Rockefeller Brothers Fund has bestowed nearly a half million dollars during the past five years to one of the organizers of the unlawful student demos at Columbia University and other campuses, the anti-Zionist Orwellian-named "Jewish Voice for Peace," as well as providing grants to notorious left-wing donor George Soros' Tides Foundation.

The entrepreneurial genius of John D. Rockefeller - whose Standard Oil, originating with Rockefeller's $4,000 investment, enabled America to grow to economic global superpower status - is long gone.

In 1934, Rockefeller established trusts for his children consisting of oil stock and real estate; they would themselves establish trusts, which divide into new trusts for succeeding generations upon their deaths.

The Pritzkers have also supported Soros' Tides Foundation, which finances the Adalah Justice Project, involved in the Columbia demonstrations and which has claimed that "Universities are hedge funds, deeply embedded with weapons manufacturers." Tides has assisted the Palestine Legal defense litigation fund offering representation to the demonstrators.

While second generation son Nelson Rockefeller rose to the New York governorship and the vice presidency of the United States as a liberal Republican, and the third generation's Jay Rockefeller was a Democrat U.S. senator for West Virginia for three decades, J.B. Pritzker, his Uncle Jay's namesake, has been the Democrat governor of Illinois since 2019.

The most well-known facet of the Pritzker family's convoluted rise to massive wealth can be described in general terms as beating the pack to building luxury hotels for business executives in the vicinity of airports at the dawn of the passenger-jet travel age in the 1950s, resulting in today's multi-billion-dollar Hyatt empire.

In the last several years, California Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom raised more than $11 million for the Tides Foundation, almost all of it from the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Philanthropies, established by the late Tulsa-based Russian emigre and oil tycoon Charles Schusterman, which funds an array of left-wing causes but has also been a longtime major supporter of the state of Israel.
