real-estate buying binge of its founder was exposed by The Post, a new documentary dives deep into the murky finances of the Black Lives Matter Global Foundation — and meets some of the people it allegedly harmed.“The Greatest Lie Ever Sold,” a film spearheaded by controversial conservative commentator Candace Owens, premiered Wednesday in Nashville at a screening attended by Kanye West, Ray J and Kid Rock.In the documentary, the Daily Wire host examines what Patrisse Cullors, BLM’s self-described ‘”trained Marxist” co-founder, did with the $90 million that her group amassed after the May 2020 slaying of George Floyd, the Black man whose cries of “I can’t breathe” set off global protests when he died under the knee of a white Minneapolis police officer.Cullors resigned from the national non-profit in 2021, a month after The Post revealed she had spent millions on real estate in the previous months — and the organization has remained mired in financial scandal. Cullors said her departure was unrelated to those “attacks,” and that she was leaving to focus on a book and TV deal. BLM has denied that any wrongdoing occurred. Black Lives Matter, Owens charges, is “a fraudulent organization that … uses black emotion and black pain to extort dollars from white America.”In the film’s most poignant moments, people who claim their lives were harmed by BLM and its supporters speak out.None of BLM’s $90 million bounty helped the couple who shared the last four years of Floyd’s life.Housemates Alvin Manago and Theresa Scott lived with Floyd in a tidy red two-story home on a corner lot in Minneapolis’s leafy Minikahda Vista neighborhood.“He was a people person,” Manago tells the filmmakers of Floyd.

Seattle’s Office of Inspector General released an 81-page review slamming how the police handled the riots of 2020, focusing on its handling of the Capitol Hill Occupied Zone.  The report, released Tuesday by city inspector general Lisa Judge, focuses on 23 days in June, shortly after George Floyd was killed in Minneapolis, which set off protests and riots across the country.  Seattle’s summer of unrest was highlighted by an eight-block "cop-free" zone known as the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest or the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone that demonstrators established after police abandoned the East Precinct building in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood. The inspector general’s office found the occupation revealed a dysfunctional relationship between the city administration, led by then-Mayor Jenny Durkan, and the police department, led by then-Police Chief Carmen Best.
