Black Lives Matter bought a swanky Southern California home for nearly $6 million using donation cash, according to a report Monday.
Three leaders of the social justice movement – Patrisse Cullors, Alicia Garza and Melina Abdullah – recorded a video last June outside of the “secretly bought” home while marking the one-year anniversary of George Floyd’s murder, New York magazine reported.
Cullors at the time said she was weeks removed from being in “survival mode” after The Post’s exclusive reporting in April revealed her purchase of four high-end US homes for $3.2 million.
“It’s because we’re powerful, because we are winning,” Cullors said of what she characterized as right-wing media attacks. “It’s because we are threatening the establishment, we’re threatening white supremacy.”
But Cullors and her colleagues didn’t reveal any details on the upscale home seen behind them in the video – a 6,500-square-foot spread with more than six bedrooms and bathrooms, fireplaces, a pool and parking for more than 20 cars, according to a real estate listing cited by the magazine. The property was purchased in October 2020 with funds that had been previously donated to the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation, according to the explosive report.

UPDATED:
INSIDE THE MANSION BOUGHT WITH DONATED FUNDS
The sprawling $6 million mansion bought by Black Lives Matter in Los Angeles once hosted Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe as house guests — and comes complete with a sound stage, music studio, pool and a two-bedroom guest house.
The 7,400-square-foot Studio City compound is a 1930s “farm house” that also boasts seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms, according to the real estate listing.
“Impressively renovated back to the 1930s with all the modern conveniences!” the listing said. “Marilyn Monroe and Humphrey Bogart were a few A-listers who stayed as guests in this estate.” MORE AT https://nypost.com/2022/04/05/the-6-million-mansion-blm-reportedly-bought-with-donated-funds/

Oh, So That's Why There's No Real Leader of Black Lives Matter Right Now--MATT VESPA
Remember Black Lives Matter? What happened to them? What’s going on? I thought there was some covert genocide against black Americans going on behalf of the police. I thought the police were just shooting people left and right. They’re not. And as we’ve known for years since this left-wing circus came to town was that almost everyone the police have shot over the course of the year deserved it. Most of the cases where police discharged their firearms involved a suspect that was armed, and in most cases the person was white. It’s also grounded in a total lie. We all know ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ was purely fake news.
Could there be common ground by holding police accountable? Sure. Are there bad cops out there? No doubt. We saw that with the Laquan McDonald shooting in Chicago back in 2014. This is the officer-involved shooting death that damaged then-Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel after it was discovered his office tried to bury it until after the mayoral election.
Yet, there are other issues. Local leaders are being arrested for voter fraud. We had one of the co-founders of the movement blowing millions on real estate, which led to her resignation and a power vacuum. Read more from VESPA AND TOWNHALL HERE.

AND 4/7 UPDATE
Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors slammed a report by New York Magazine that detailed the organization’s purchase of a swanky $5.8 million Southern California home — claiming the story is a “racist and sexist” attack on the movement.
The 6,500-square-foot mansion features more than six bedrooms and bathrooms and was “secretly bought” with BLM’s donation funds, the magazine reported and The Post later confirmed. The luxe property once hosted Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe as house guests — and comes complete with a sound stage, music studio, pool and a two-bedroom guest house.
