Non-profit organizations and Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have become a shadow government in the U.S. Many years ago I reported blatantly phony non-profit groups to the California Attorney General. Nothing ever happened. So for many years, going back to when Jerry Brown was California’s Attorney General, I have researched and investigated dubious non-profits and written about them, hoping government officials would take notice – to no avail. California’s corruption begins at the top, as does the corruption in the United States.
Think back to Barack Obama and ACORN, a very shady “community activist” organization that helped bring Obama to power. ACORN was a community organizing group that claimed to help poor people with low-income housing issues, but was really registering thousands/millions of people to vote in Democratic districts. Some of these supposed voters reportedly were actually dead, nonexistent, or used shacks and empty buildings as their home addresses.
Sounds just like ACTBlue.
The lid was blown off of ACORN by James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles, but the organization never really disbanded – they just changed names and continued their “community organizing” and shady leftist voter registration practices.
At the Globe, we’ve reported on so many dubious organizations, with damning details, but crickets… Read this recent article, about “Free Speech for People,” the non-profit parent organization of “Impeach Trump. Again.” for an example.
With President Donald Trump and DOGE Chairman and “White House Tech Support” Elon Musk exposing the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) agency, the scheme is up.
“USAID has been a substantial funder of over 6,200 journalists across 707 media outlets and 279 “media” NGOs, including 90 percent of the reportage out of Ukraine,” Wikileaks posted on X.
And: “USAID has pushed nearly half a billion dollars ($472.6m) through a secretive US government financed NGO, “Internews Network” (IN), which has “worked with” 4,291 media outlets, producing in one year 4,799 hours of broadcasts reaching up to 778 million people and “training” over 9000 journalists (2023 figures). IN has also supported social media censorship initiatives.” (more on this organization to come).
It gets worse.
“USAID Sent $9.3B to Islamic Terror States That Killed 3,000 American Soldiers, And over $18 billion to Islamic terrorist states,” Daniel Greenfield reports today:
- USAID support for Somalia had doubled under the Biden administration and with $3.3 billion from USAID allocated in the last 5 years.
- USAID sent $2.1 billion to Gaza and the West Bank since the Hamas attacks of Oct 7. In 2024 alone, $917 million was programmed for the terrorist areas occupying Israel.
- USAID provided over $3.7 billion to Afghanistan since the Taliban took over with $832 million in the previous fiscal year alone.
- Even while the United States of America was at war with the Houthis, the Islamic terrorist group firing on US Navy vessels out of Yemen, USAID continued to direct billions of dollars to Yemen. In 2024, USAID announced a $2.7 billion aid request for Yemen and allocated $753 million. Over the last 5 years, it doled out $3.4 billion.
The San Francisco Standard reports today Bay Area nonprofits are dumbfounded from President Trump’s “funding cuts and chaos. San Francisco has the largest share of the nonprofit workforce of any California county. Other Bay Area counties, including Santa Clara, San Mateo, and Alameda, follow right behind.”
“San Francisco’s nonprofit sector is the largest per capita of any California county – $9 billion outstanding in federal grants and loans for Bay Area entities, according to U.S. contract data. That includes more than $1 billion earmarked directly for nonprofits, and much more that filters down to organizations across the region through state and local governments and institutions.”
This has been paid from taxpayer money – money taken from the people’s paychecks. As Greenfield wrote, “USAID’s partnerships with foreign governments, and with large unaccountable organizations including the UN and the World Bank, have raised concerns of money laundering. The revolving door between USAID personnel and some of the non-profit and for-profit groups who all profit from it has also raised questions about the legitimacy of those arrangements.”
Elon Musk posted on X details of DOGE’s deep dive into Medicaid payments:

One great day in the union...November 8, 1966 when Ronald Reagan expelled Jerry Brown's father from the governor's seat in Sacramento.
As before...But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand (Isaiah 32.8 KJV).
