MILLIONS IN TAXPAYER MONEY Flowed to Jihad Jew-Hater Linda Sarsour, Records Reveal
By Robert Spencer - on November 15, 2025
Back in 2017, the Internal Revenue Service was found to have hounded patriotic groups not because they had actually violated any laws, but simply because they did not toe the left’s line. At the same time, leftist groups had taxpayer funds lavished upon them. After all, they were doing the work of the good and righteous, right? It has now emerged that the Arab American Association of New York (AAANY), a venomously antisemitic group that leading Jew-hater Linda Sarsour once headed, received over $4 million in taxpayer money from New York City and New York state. At the same time, patriotic groups were struggling to keep their heads above water.
The Washington Free Beacon reported Monday that “the Arab American Association of New York (AAANY), which Sarsour led from 2005 to 2017, received more than $3.3 million from New York City and $854,000 from New York state between Sarsour’s last year atop the organization and 2024.” That is money, mind you, that the city and state confiscated from New York taxpayers under the pretext that the governing authorities were going to use the money to provide for the general welfare.
City officials seemed to be aware that what they were doing was not exactly on the up-and-up, as they seem to have made some effort to cover their tracks. The Free Beacon notes that “the state-level funding came primarily from the New York State Department of State, with $20,000 disbursed from the Office of Children and Family Services. Its city-level funding is much murkier: One $60,000 payment came from the Department of Small Business Services, but the rest of the funding was not attributed to any particular agency, watchdog group OpenTheBooks found.” Hmmm, now why might that be?
