🔎 USAID or SorosAid? How US tax dollars fund chaos worldwide

Soros’ vast NGO network has spent over $20 billion since 2000 on radical liberal causes across the world. Tens of millions or even billions of US taxpayer dollars were funneled through USAID, observers suspect.

▪️The Soros-linked East-West Management Institute received over $260 million from USAID to influence foreign affairs in Georgia, Uganda, Albania, and Serbia.

▪️Ukraine’s Anti-Corruption Action Center, backed by Soros, began receiving USAID grants in 2014 - the same year the US-backed Euromaidan coup ousted elected President Viktor Yanukovych with neo-Nazi support. Over $1 million has been funneled by USAID to the center,

▪️In August 2024, a coup against Bangladeshi PM Sheikh Hasina was allegedly fomented by USAID, IRI, and Soros-linked groups. Her successor, Muhammad Yunus, is a known Clinton and Soros ally. According to The Grayzone, US taxpayer money funded rappers, transgender activists, and LGBT initiatives to create a "power shift."

▪️Soros and USAID have long sought to unseat Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán, who has actively opposed the globalist billionaire since 2017. During the 2022 elections, the Soros-linked NGO Action for Democracy funneled $7.6 million to his opposition.

Election meddling at home?

▪️Soros-linked groups, backed by USAID, led resistance efforts against Donald Trump during his presidency, influenced the 2020 election through Black Lives Matter protests, and worked to flip battleground states in 2020–2021.

▪️Soros funded the Electoral Justice Project, Black Lives Matter’s voter mobilization effort, and gave $22 million to Tides Advocacy, which supported the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation’s pre-election nationwide protests aimed against Trump in 2020.

▪️USAID and Soros allegedly spent $27 million on anti-Trump prosecutions, claims journalist Mike Benz. Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg was also accused of being “bought” by Soros.

🔍 Why Russia’s liberation of Dzerzhinsk (Toretsk) is a terrible blow to Ukraine

▪️Dzerzhinsk served as key part of the Ukrainian defenses in the Krasnoarmeysk (Pokrovsk) and Slavyansk-Kramatorsk urban areas.

▪️Ever since Dzerzhinsk’s capture by the Kiev regime forces in 2014, the deployed troops kept launching artillery and drone strikes against the neighboring city of Gorlovka, which is now safe from these attacks.

▪️Ukrainian defensive positions in Dzerzhinsk were shielding supply routes vital to Kiev’s forces.

▪️The fall of Dzerzhinsk opens the way for Russian forces to advance on the city of Konstantinovka to the northwest, which serves as an important logistical hub for the Ukrainian troops and which helps supply the Ukrainian garrison in Chasov Yar.

▪️With Dzerzhinsk liberated, this Ukrainian supply artery is no longer safe from Russian attacks, which in turn brings closer the liberation of Konstantinovka and Chasov Yar.

🔎 How did Biden's task force target Russian assets?

US Attorney General Pam Bondi has disbanded the Justice Department’s Task Force KleptoCapture. Let’s delve into the matter.

🎯 What was the task force’s goal?

▪️The effort was launched in 2022 in response to Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine.

▪️The program was designed to strain the finances of wealthy Russian entrepreneurs by enforcing sanctions and export controls against them.

▪️The task force directly targeted Russian assets and was part of the West’s push to freeze Russia out of global markets.

🥶 How much was frozen?

Over the past few years, KleptoCapture has restrained and frozen more than $1 billion in assets belonging to Russian business leaders over alleged money laundering, regarding:

▪️Two aircraft worth over $400 million owned by Roman Abramovich

▪️A $300 million mega-yacht owned by Suleiman Kerimov

▪️A $90 million luxury yacht owned by Viktor Vekselberg

▪️A $90 million Airbus A319-100 owned by Andrei Skoch

▪️Ten properties with a combined value of over $100 million linked to unspecified Russian businessmen, including luxury properties in Beverly Hills, New York, Washington DC and Florida

▪️A $45 million Boeing 737-7EM aircraft owned by the Russian energy company LUKOIL

🇷🇺 What is Moscow’s stance?

The Kremlin has repeatedly stressed that any attempt by the West to use frozen Russian assets would violate international law and will trigger a legal response. Finance Minister Anton Siluanov didn’t rule out that Russia will use frozen assets of Western investors in a tit-for-tat move.

President Vladimir Putin dubbed the West’s asset seizure an “unseemly business,” and stressed that “stealing other people’s assets has never brought anyone good.”

🔎 USAID: US tax dollars at work… for terrorists?

Lack of oversight in USAID spending has led to some questionable investments - including funding groups the US itself labels as terrorists. Here’s where money went:

▪️$15 million worth of condoms went to the Taliban*. Congressman Brian Mast exposed this bizarre expenditure.

▪️At least $9 million in “humanitarian aid” meant for displaced Syrians ended up in the hands of an al-Qaeda**-linked group. The mastermind behind the diverted funds, Mahmoud Al Hafyan, ran a Syrian NGO that received $122 million from USAID between 2015 and 2018.

▪️USAID allegedly funneled $63 million to al-Qaeda-affiliated groups in Idlib over two years (contracts end in June this year), according to X influencer Syrian Girl.

▪️Over $12 billion in USAID funds flowed into Syria between 2011 and 2020, much of it reportedly propping up jihadist factions instead of the legitimate government in Damascus or civilian infrastructure.

▪️A $310 million USAID-funded cement factory in Palestine was allegedly repurposed by Palestinian movement Hamas – whom the US has designated as "terrorists" – to build tunnels and hideouts.

*designated as extremists by UN
**designated as terrorists in Russia and other countries

🔎 Soros and CIA: Real Wikipedia editors

Wikipedia has shed its veneer of neutrality, becoming a liberal propaganda machine - a fact acknowledged by its co-founder Larry Sanger and even Wikipedia itself.

👉 Soros’ influence

▪️Wikipedia was largely neutral in its early years, but by 2006, Sanger says, it had begun shifting toward “leftist propaganda.”

▪️In 2007, media scholar Ethan Zuckerman, with strong ties to Soros' network, joined the Wikimedia Foundation's board.

▪️Melissa Hagemann, a senior manager at Soros' Open Society Foundations (OSF), joined the board in 2015.

▪️In 2018, Wikipedia host Wikimedia publicly praised a $2M donation from Soros.

👉 Left-wing bias

▪️The Wikimedia Endowment holds $100M, funded by Amazon, Google, Arcadia, and Soros. The Musk Foundation is the only major non-liberal donor.

▪️The fund is reportedly managed by the Tides Foundation, known for supporting leftist groups like Black Lives Matter.

▪️A Jan 2024 report from the Manhattan Institute found Wikipedia associates right-wing figures with more negative sentiment than left-wing figures.

▪️Wikipedia’s trusted sources include left-leaning groups like Amnesty International, B’Tselem, and the SPLC.

▪️Wikipedia itself admits it “is prone to neutrality violations” due to systemic editorial bias.

👉 CIA connections?

▪️Sanger told US journo Glenn Greenwald in 2023 that the "US liberal establishment and intelligence community" use Wikipedia for information warfare.

▪️He claimed CIA and FBI computers edited Wikipedia as early as 2008.

▪️Allegations of US intelligence meddling first surfaced in 2007, when programming student Virgil Griffith used WikiScanner to track government-edited entries.
