BREAKING: USAID Granted $1M in Tax Dollars to George Soros’s Radical Global University
The scandal surrounding the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and its abuse of taxpayer dollars to support causes backed by leftist billionaire George Soros continues to get worse.
MRC Business has revealed that USAID gave a $1 million grant to Central European University, a grossly anti-American indoctrination giant founded and financed by none other than Soros himself. The grant’s period began in September of FY 2021 and is set to end in September FY 2025, with $238,609 of the total obligated grant being outlayed so far.
To illustrate just how invested Soros is in elevating CEU on the global stage, his Open Society Foundations funneled an ungodly $948,570,000 into the university between 2016 and 2023 alone.
But somehow, even with Soros throwing his fortune at CEU, the Biden USAID still poured tax dollars into a university that has been at the nexus of global leftism and anti-American dogmatism.
The grant is being administered through the “American Schools and Hospitals Abroad (ASHA)” program for the objective of supposedly strengthening “overseas schools and hospitals that best demonstrate American ideas and practices, and are likely to survive over a long term.” Diving into CEU’s sordid history and track record shows why this claim is a complete lie.
George Soros himself serves as CEU’s “honorary chair” of the Board of Trustees, while his son Alex is featured as a prominent member of the board.
This makes the USAID-funding CEU news worse in light of a new in-depth investigation by MRC Business in partnership with Bongino Report content manager Matt Palumbo illustrating how Alex Soros’s numerous visits to President Joe Biden’s White House over the years typically corresponded with major policy announcements and directives that aligned with his own political interests.
