A number of sources have suggested that Barre Seid may be the โ€œAnonymous Donorโ€ that has supported many of the Heartland Institute’s climate change denial activities.6โ€œThe case for Barre Seid as the Heartland Institute’s Anonymous Donor: Summation,โ€ Daily KOS, March 6, 2012.

According to leaked documents obtained by DeSmog, an anonymous donor contributed at least $13,342,267 to Heartland between 2007 and 2011.7Brendan DeMelle. โ€œHeartland Institute Exposed: Internal Documents Unmask Heart of Climate Denial Machine,โ€ DeSmog, February 14, 2012.

The idea of Barre Seid as the mystery donor is corroborated by October 20128John Mashey. โ€œFakery 2: More Funny Finances, Free Of Tax,โ€ DeSmog, October 25, 2012. and February 2012 reports9John Mashey. โ€œFake science, fakexperts, funny finances, free of tax,โ€ DeSmog, February 14, 2012. compiled by computer scientist John Mashey. According to Mashey, โ€œThe combination of IRS Form 990s, February documents, and other information proves his identity, as the numbers simply do not work otherwise.โ€

Salon magazine reported that Seid may also have been the anonymous donor behind a right-wing campaign by the Clarion Fund to distribute DVDs about Radical Islam in swing states.

โ€œThe elderly and press-shy Seid is president of Tripp Lite, a large Chicago-based manufacturer of power strips that got into the personal computer market on the ground floor back in the 1980s. Seid has personally poured millions of dollars into Republican campaigns and conservative causes, and his foundation has given generously to the Cato Institute, the Americans for Limited Government Foundation, and the David Horowitz Freedom Center. This year, Seid received an honorary degree from Bar-Ilan University outside Tel Aviv for his work ‘supporting those organizations which will fortify Israelโ€™s position in the world.’โ€

The New York Times reported that Barre Seid was responsible for giving value worth $1.6 billion to a new conservative nonprofit controlled by Leonard A. Leo called Marble Freedom Trust.11Kenneth P. Vogel and Shane Goldmacher. “An Unusual $1.6 Billion Donation Bolsters Conservatives,” The New York Times, August 22, 2022. Archived August 31, 2022. Archive URL: https://archive.ph/tEfEM

“Rather than merely giving cash, Mr. Seid donated 100 percent of the shares of Tripp Lite to Mr. Leoโ€™s nonprofit group before the company was sold to an Irish conglomerate for $1.65 billion,” The New York Times reported.

The amount Marble Trust received from the sale “is slightly more than the total of $1.5 billion spent in 2020 by 15 of the most politically active nonprofit organizations that generally align with Democrats,” The New York Times reported.

“The Marble Freedom Trust could help conservatives level the playing field โ€” if not surpass the left โ€” in such nonprofit spending, which is commonly referred to as dark money because the groups involved can raise and spend unlimited sums on politics while revealing little about where they got the money or how they spent it.”

Leonard Leo has been credited with helping Donald Trump fill supreme court seats The Washington Post,12Robert O’Harrow Jr. and Shawn Boburg. “A conservative activist’s behind-the-scenes campaign to remake the nation’s courts,” The Washington Post, May 21, 2019.

“They have targeted the Supreme Court and other high offices to implement their shared agenda of repealing decades of legal precedents protecting Americansโ€™ rights, including Roe v. Wade,” True North Research reported.13Lisa Graves. “Backgrounder on Barre Seid, the Extremist Who Made Leonard Leo an Overnight Billionaire in the Trafficking of Dark Money,” True North Research, August 22, 2022.

A joint investigation by ProPublica and The Lever uncovered additional information about Marble Freedom Trust and also showed Barre Seid funding other entities associated with Leonard Leo such as the Federalist Society, and the George Mason University law school.14Andrew Perez, Andy Kroll, and Juston Elliott. “How a Secretive Billionaire Handed His Fortune to the Architect of the Right-Wing Takeover of the Courts,” ProPublica, August 22, 2022.

“As President Donald Trumpโ€™s adviser on judicial nominations, Leo helped build the Supreme Courtโ€™s conservative supermajority, which recently eliminated Constitutional protections for abortion rights and has made a series of sweeping pro-business decisions,” ProPublica and The Lever reported. “Leo, a conservative Catholic, has both helped select judges to nominate to the Supreme Court and directed multimillion dollar media campaigns to confirm them.”15Andrew Perez, Andy Kroll, and Juston Elliott. “How a Secretive Billionaire Handed His Fortune to the Architect of the Right-Wing Takeover of the Courts,” ProPublica, August 22, 2022.

“In practical terms, there are few limitations on how Leoโ€™s new group, the Marble Freedom Trust, can spend the enormous donation. The structure of the donation allowed Seid to avoid as much as $400 million in taxes. Thus, he maximized the amount of money at Leoโ€™s disposal,” they noted.16Andrew Perez, Andy Kroll, and Juston Elliott. “How a Secretive Billionaire Handed His Fortune to the Architect of the Right-Wing Takeover of the Courts,” ProPublica, August 22, 2022.

Over 800 pages of documents were produced by George Mason University in October 2019 and obtained via a FOI request by attorney and GMU Law School alumna Allison Pienta suggest Seid may be the โ€œanonymous donorโ€ who pledged $20 million over a five-year period to rename George Masonโ€™s Law School after the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.18Allison Pienta. โ€œGMU FOIA Documents October 2019 1 to 820.pdf,โ€ Dropbox, October 2019. Archived May 27, 2021.

โ€œThe documents that prove that Mr. Seid is the Scalia Law donor were produced in response to requests under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act for โ€˜communications or documents containing the name of the anonymous donor under the March 31, 2016 Grant Agreement, or the name of the lawyer and agent for the anonymous donorโ€™,โ€ Allison Pienta, a volunteer advocate for UnKoch My Campus, wrote at Medium. โ€œ[T]he Law Schoolโ€™s former Dean Polsby and its current Dean, Henry Butler, regularly communicated with Mr. Seid in-person, by telephone, and by electronic communications.โ€19Allison Pienta. โ€œNew Evidence Suggests Chicago Billionaire โ€œClosely Alliedโ€ with the Koch Brothers and Implicated in Funding Climate-Change Denial and Islamophobia Is Anonymous โ€œDark Moneyโ€ Donor Behind Renaming of George Mason Universityโ€™s Law School,โ€ Medium, December 16, 2019. Archived May 27, 2021. Archive URL: https://archive.ph/6X5lU

According to Pienta, Virginia FOIA Advisory Council pushed the Universityโ€™s Dean of the Law Schoolโ€”who claimed to be the only one who knew the name of the anonymous donorโ€”to provide the name to the Universityโ€™s FOIA officer in order to conduct the search, after which that name was redacted in all provided documents.

However, when a follow-up request was made for all communications with โ€œBarre Seid,โ€ Mr. Seidโ€™s name appeared unredacted in some of the same communications that came from the prior response for the anonymous donor. 

โ€œOther emails where the donorโ€™s name had been redacted were revealed to be related to communications with Mr. Seid about meetings with the Law Schoolโ€™s current and former Deans,โ€ Pienta wrote.

Some of the key findings, via Medium, from the FOIA included:

  • Following a January 2000 donation for $300,000 for โ€œtwo new institutions for federal judges,โ€ the same donor pledged $650,000 per year to the GMUโ€™s Law & Economics Center, and โ€œ[m]ost of this money would pass through to donees external to GMUโ€ 
  • Confirmation Seid started using Donors Trust and Donors Capital Fund to make the source of his donations less transparent. Later communications described efforts to reveal contributions to Donors Trust as โ€œthe essence of a witch hunt.โ€
  • After Seid set up the Chicago Freedom Trust with officers from Donors Trust and Donors Capital Fund, as well as Leonard Leo of the Federalist Society, Henry Butler met in person with Seid in March 2011 and solicited funding for โ€œtrainingโ€ in September 2011. A followup email from the donor to Butler commented โ€œ400,000 coming from DT [Donorsโ€™ Trust] for econ/law and law/econ professor training. Hope to continue yearlyโ€
  • The donor announced to Dean Polsby, responding to a March 2013 email, that โ€œI intend to make 5 yearly contributions of $250,000 each to the Law School [amended five days later to $375,000 per year]โ€ through โ€œDonors Trustโ€ โ€œto fund the compensation and fringe benefitsโ€ of a specific professor whose name is redacted. The donor added, โ€œif [name redacted] leaves GMU, the contributions will ceaseโ€  
  • In February 2014, the donor agreed to a project to address โ€œextreme deferenceโ€ to government agencies under administrative law. On July 14, 2014, then-LEC Director Butler told Leonard Leo that the conference โ€œfor which our friend provided special fundingโ€ on โ€œAdministration Unbound?โ€ will be held on September 11โ€“12, 2014 
  • Barre Seid met with incoming Dean Butler, Dean Polsby, LEC Deputy Director Paige Butler (Dean Butlerโ€™s spouse), and new LEC Director Todd Zywicki. Later that same day, the donor sent an email to Dean Polsby: โ€œConfirming our discussion of today, we are forwarding from Donors Capital Fund $150,000 as the first installment of a three-year commitment to assist you in hiring [a professor whose name has been redacted]โ€
  • The anonymous donor, believed to be Seid, entered into a grant agreement for $4 million per year over five years ($20 million total) to rename George Masonโ€™s Law School after Justice Scalia. An additional $10 million would come from the Charles Koch Foundation. The agreement included a provision for twelve faculty to be hired to carry out the โ€œMission,โ€  defined in the agreement as โ€œ[r]etain[ing] focus on the study of Law & Economicsโ€ and developing โ€œareas of concentrationโ€ on โ€œintellectual property, legal history, constitutional studies, administrative law, and the relationship between law and liberty.โ€ The agreement identified Dean Butler as a โ€œcritical part of advancing the Schoolโ€™s Mission,โ€ and the donor asked to be notified if the Dean was ever replaced. The agreement required support for the Schoolโ€™s Center that is dedicated to โ€œdismantling the Administrative Stateโ€ and a new โ€œCenter for Liberty & Law.โ€ It also installed Leonard Leo in an oversight role for a newly created โ€œโ€œBH Fund.โ€ The grants were to be conditional on the anonymous donorโ€™s approval โ€œ in his โ€œsole and absolute discretionโ€ and would include โ€œannual written proposals.โ€
  • FOIA documents showed that the former dean Polsby and its current Dean, Henry Butler met with Barre Seid in person, including eight such meetings in Chicago.

Leaked documents revealed that an โ€œAnonymous Donorโ€ had contributed over $13,342,267 in donations between 2007 and 2011 to the Heartland Institute, an organization known for spreading climate science denial and misinformation.

“That trove also contains documentation of โ€œmatchingโ€ grants, which indicate that the anonymous donor Bradley was matching in 2013 was โ€œSeid.โ€ The only Seid referred to in numerous Bradley documents — such as executive travel to meet with major donors and to โ€œcoordinateโ€ funding — is Barre Seid, a super wealthy Chicago industrialist whose net worth is not publicly known,” True North Research reported.

Sources have suggested that this anonymous donor is Barre Seid. This suggestion is corroborated by October, 2012 and February, 2012 reports by computer scientist John Mashey.

David Wojick‘s โ€œGlobal Warming Curriculum Projectโ€ is a K-12 curriculum designed to counter what Wojick suggests is an โ€œalarmist perspectiveโ€ being taught in schools.

Numerous sources have credited Barre Seid as behind the attempted โ€œideological takeoverโ€ of Shimer College, a small Chicago-area โ€œGreat Booksโ€ college. Shimer received over $800,000 between 2007 and 2008 from Seid’s foundation. In 2008, through a year-long process conducted by the Shimer College Presidential Search Committee, three candidates were chosen for the position of president. All three were rejected by an anonymous donor now understood to be Barre Seid. The fourth candidate, Thomas Lindsay, was brought forward by friend of Seid and longtime Board of Trustees Member Patrick Parker.30โ€œBarbara and Barre Seid Foundation,โ€ Conservative Transparency.

In 2009, Thomas Lindsay was appointed president and soon began implementing sweeping changes to Shimer’s board which included the addition of trustees with significant conservative connections and many with ties to Barre Seid.31โ€œBarbara and Barre Seid Foundation,โ€ Conservative Transparency.

Under this new management, significant changes were proposed to the Shimer mission statement including replacing references of โ€œactive citizenshipโ€ and โ€œinformed, responsible actionโ€ for references to โ€œordered political liberty such as we enjoy in American democracy.โ€ These changes, among others, alarmed Shimer community and staff members.

The opposition from community members eventually became an open struggle that received national press coverage including a Wall Street Journal article37โ€œOn the Barricades at Shimer,โ€ The Wall Street Journal, March 10, 2010.

The continued struggle led to open protest and a petition that called for Lindsay’s resignation. On April 18 the Shimer Assembly, a body giving all students, faculty and administrative staff at the college equal voting privilege, passed a unanimous resolution of no confidence for Lindsay. After successfully convincing two swing members of Shimer’s Board, they were able to vote to fire Lindsay and effectively stop the ideological takeover.39โ€œShimer College thwarts right-wing takeover attempt,โ€ Daily Kos, April 21, 2010.

Shortly before the 2008 US presidential Election, an accounting error revealed that Barre Seid was likely behind the production and distribution of millions of DVDs about radical Islam. The film, titled โ€œObsession: Radical Islam’s War With the West,โ€ was distributed by the nonprofit Clarion Fund to help Republican candidates who were trying to portray Democrats as weak on the issue of terrorism.40โ€œMystery of who funded right-wing ‘radical Islam’ campaign deepens,โ€ Salon, November 16, 2010.

The 28 million DVD copies arguably fuelled anti-Muslim sentiment in the country, and according to Salon the film โ€œwas widely criticized for its cartoonish portrayal of Muslims as modern-day Nazis.โ€41โ€œMystery of who funded right-wing ‘radical Islam’ campaign deepens,โ€ Salon, November 16, 2010.

While nonprofits must submit financial information including the identity of donors to the IRS, usually only the basic revenue and spending data are made available to the public. In this case, it appears an extra page detailing donor information was inadvertently included in the public filing which revealed a โ€œBarry Seidโ€ as donor.

According to Salon, while the spelling on the IRS form lists a โ€œBarry Seid,โ€ the only individual capable of a $17 million donor to the Clarion and who fit the profile was Barre Seid. The fact that Seid had used Donors Trust in the past to fund controversial causes only strengthened the case.

Seid’s representative flatly denied to Salon that he has ever given money to Clarion:

Seid assistant Joan Frontczak told Salon in an e-mail: โ€œMr. Seid did not make any contributions to the Clarion Fund.โ€ And she added: โ€œMr. Seid is a very private person and doesn’t seek publicity of any kind.โ€

Furthermore, Clarion Fund spokesman Alex Traiman denied that the inadvertently released document is accurate.

โ€œThe sources of anonymous donations to the Clarion Fund in 2008 have been incorrectly identified,โ€ Traiman said in an e-mail to Salon. โ€œAs like many other not-for-profit organizations, we respect the right of private donors to remain anonymous.โ€

Salon also noted that the Donors Capital Fund’s 2008 IRS filing showed that DCF gave $17.7 million to Clarion at the same time that the DVDs were sent out. Donors Capital Fund acts as a โ€œcharitable vehicleโ€ where donors can direct where they want their money to go. Whitney Ball, president of DCF, told Salon that โ€œOne of our clients made a recommendation for Clarion and so we did it.โ€ She did not identify the client or comment on Seid.

Seid’s private foundation, The Barbara and Barre Seid Foundation, has also made at least one donation to Donors Capital Fund in the past.43โ€œBarbara and Barre Seid Foundation: Search String: donors capital,โ€ Conservative Transparency. Search performed February 22, 2018.
