NGO That Sparked Trump’s Impeachment Received Massive Taxpayer Subsidy, Report
By: Jason Walsh
December 3, 2024

 
An international non-government organization (NGO) that served as a major catalyst for President Donald Trump‘s impeachment received over half of its funding from the United States Department of State.

The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), comprised of journalists in six countries and co-founded by entrepreneur Drew Sullivan, received a whopping 52 percent of the funds from the U.S. federal government.

It also appears that the U.S. taxpayer-funded the OCCRP’s investigation into former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s political work in Ukraine.

The activities were cited several times in the whistleblower letter that sparked Trump’s first impeachment in 2019.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Unsurprisingly, OCCRP attempts to portray itself as nonpartisan when it’s the complete opposite.

For instance, the organization’s co-founder, Drew Sullivan, has a lengthy social media track record of boosting partisan political narratives

Sullivan recently amplified claims that Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, sports far-right Christian nationalist tattoos.

Somehow, I m not surprised. Who wrote in the funding?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
