Pro-Hamas Rioters Paid $75,000 to Protest Against Israel

This is funding terrorism in the homeland.

U.S. pro-Palestinian activist paid $75k to protest, funding traces back to Chinese Communist Party

David (Sung Mo) Chung was one of the key participants of the rally held on October 8, 2023, in New York, just a day after the Hamas massacre in Israel.

By: Mathilda Heller, Jerusalem Post, August 7, 2025:

One of the lead organizers of pro-Palestine rallies in New York – David (Sung Mo) Chung – is paid $75,000 to protest, Nate Friedman first revealed in an investigation that he posted to his social media.

Friedman has been talking to people at protests for over a year, and now works to uncover professional protesters. He first came across Chung at a “Hands Off Iran” protest in NYC, he told The Jerusalem Post in an interview on Thursday. Friedman was trying to speak to a man with a flag that read, “There is no god but Allah,” but just “two sentences into the interview, another man interrupted and pulled the guy aside, and told him they were getting ready to march.” The other man was Chung.

Friedman flagged this as “paid behavior” as the man with a flag had consented to speak, so there was no reason for the interview to be interrupted.

He looked into Chung and found that he is listed as General Manager of The People’s Forum organization, which, due to being a 501(c)(3) listed NGO, has publicly available financial filings. Its Form 990 for 2023 lists Chung as the one and only paid employee with compensation of $64,021 and “other” payments of $9,581. The other seven members, including the directors, are listed as $0. Chung was also listed the year before, with compensation of $64,588 and “other” of $10,019. The same thing is seen tracing back to 2018.

University of Florida Hands Down Years-Long Suspensions to pro-Hamas Rioters

The seven students have reportedly submitted appeals to overturn their punishments that are pending.


The University of Florida (UF) has handed down severe and potentially life-altering punishments to seven pro-Hamas rioters who participated in occupying the campus in an attempt to intimidate officials into boycotting and divesting from Israel, according to Fresh Take Florida, a news service of the university’s College of Journalism and Communications.

UF’s disciplinary body was set on slapping the students’ wrists, sentencing most to probation only based on recommendations from “hearing bodies,” until its new dean, Chris Summerlin, intervened and issued full suspensions for as many as four years.

The harshest suspensions — including four years for Allan Hektor Frasheri, 21, and three years for other students — while not being formal expulsions, are long enough to make it unlikely that the students serving them will return to the University of Florida.

The seven students have reportedly submitted appeals to overturn their punishments that are pending.

Summerlin’s suspensions may not be the only consequences that the students will face.

According to Fresh Take Florida, the students were part of a group of nine that were arrested by local law enforcement for trespassing and resisting arrest, charges that are being prosecuted by the Alachua County State Attorney’s Office.

They are taking their chances at trial, the news service added, noting that all nine have rejected “deferred prosecution,” an agreement that would require them to plead guilty, or no contest, in exchange for the state’s expunging the convictions from their records in the future so long as they abstain from committing more criminal acts.

The University of Texas at Austin has also meted out lengthy suspensions to pro-Hamas protesters who violated school rules, a course of action that experts believe is a deterrent against similar behavior in the future.
