In a shocking development, investigations into USAID led by Elon Musk under Trump’s authorization have uncovered extensive government funding of left-wing initiatives and questionable spending practices. The scope of the investigation is set to expand to include the Department of Education, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and the Pentagon.
Recent Wikileaks revelations indicate that USAID channeled approximately half a billion dollars in taxpayer money to the Internews Network, a government-funded non-profit organization. This organization’s activities included journalist training, news content direction, and the creation of “exclusion lists” designed to financially pressure non-compliant media outlets through advertiser boycotts.
The government’s censorship efforts extended beyond Internews, involving prestigious institutions like Stanford Internet Observatory, University of Washington, Yale, and Newsguard. Major tech companies including Facebook, Amazon, and Google were reportedly pressured to participate in what critics call the Censorship Industrial Complex.

– Left wing projects around the globe
– Gender surgeries
– DEI policies
– Green New Deal Climate ScamsIt was funding an army of left-wing activists…! It wasn't organic…! It was funded by taxpayer dollars!" pic.twitter.com/tU0JTxY7Ht

Currently, The Gateway Pundit is engaged in legal proceedings against the government in Missouri v. Biden, challenging issues related to censorship and financial penalties against media outlets.
Financial records reveal that USAID provided 75% of Internews Network’s funding, enabling their influence over 4,291 media outlets. The organization’s reach extended across 30 countries, involving more than 9,000 journalists. Suspiciously, Google Maps reveals their main office location appears abandoned, raising concerns about potential fraudulent activities.
The investigation has exposed that Internews Network received $472.6 million from USAID, produced 4,799 broadcast hours, and reached an estimated 778 million people worldwide.
See I told you the Left in America (and here in the UK) were Neo-Liberals.
They’re angry that USAID, what is in effect a front for the CIA to interfere abroad, is being shut down. pic.twitter.com/Q0jZc8P4Z1

Internews President Jeanne Bourgault, who earns nearly $500,000 annually and has been with the organization for 24 years, has restricted access to her social media profiles. The organization’s website content has been removed, though archived versions remain accessible. Bourgault’s professional history shows exclusive ties to USAID and related organizations, with connections to Reddit management and influential media companies.
Additional findings link Internews to funding from George Soros, while separate investigations revealed Politico received $8 million yearly in government funds, allegedly for premium subscription services sold to government officials.
The discovery of Internews operating from an abandoned office has sparked online discussions about potential connections between USAID, Internews, and U.S. intelligence agencies. These speculations reference “Operation Mockingbird,” an alleged intelligence program aimed at infiltrating global media outlets to promote U.S. interests worldwide.
