By now, the word of USAID funding anti-gun groups has gone viral throughout the gun community. This funding of groups working against an American’s God-given rights has led many to wonder how such spending went unnoticed for years. Multiple investigations show an elaborate web of money funneling that obfuscates the money sources.
None of the funding to the anti-gun groups came directly from USAID. What USAID did was to pass the funds to a middleman that paid out the anti-gun groups. Some think these middlemen made it so USAID could deny that they were funding politically motivated anti-gun groups like a shell game. Some would equate it to legal money laundering. It is unclear how much USAID knew about the funds’ disbursal, but the agency is supposed to monitor any taxpayers’ dollars doled out. USAID was either incompetent or complacent.
One example of the dark web of money is the tunneling of funds distributed through non-profit groups such as NEO Philanthropy, the Board of Trustees of the Lelan, and George Soros’s Tides Foundation to anti-gun organizations. These groups joined other non-profits such as Civicus World Alliance, Kaiser Foundation Hospitals, and Fidelity Investments Charitable Gift Fund to bankroll Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Safety to the tune of $7.5 million. Fidelity Investments Charitable Gift Fund was responsible for a staggering $6,748,000. The next largest donor was Kaiser Foundation Hospitals, which gave the anti-gun group $300,000. Everytown took in $65,049,593 in 2022.
