  • USAID and CIA allegedly funded gain-of-function research on coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, potentially leading to the creation of COVID-19.
  • USAID has a history of serving as a front for CIA operations, funding projects that align with geopolitical objectives rather than genuine humanitarian needs.
  • EcoHealth Alliance, a partner of USAID, is accused of facilitating CIA infiltration into biological research facilities and potentially funding bioweapons research.
  • The FBI and Department of Energy concluded that COVID-19 likely originated from a lab leak in Wuhan, with a CIA officer attempting to suppress this conclusion by bribing analysts.
  • The scandal highlights the urgent need for transparency, accountability and a reevaluation of how taxpayer dollars are spent on government initiatives.
In a shocking revelation that should send chills down the spine of every American, new evidence has emerged showing that U.S. taxpayer dollars were funneled through USAID to fund gain-of-function research on coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology—research that likely led to the creation of COVID-19. This scandal, which implicates not only USAID but also the CIA, raises grave questions about the integrity of our government and the misuse of public funds for dangerous and unethical purposes.

USAID: A CIA front for global manipulation

USAID, the United States Agency for International Development, has long been touted as a humanitarian organization dedicated to alleviating poverty and promoting global development. However, its history is riddled with allegations of serving as a front for CIA operations. Former USAID Director John Gilligan once admitted that the agency was “infiltrated from top to bottom with CIA people,” stating, “the idea was to plant operatives in every kind of activity we had overseas: government, volunteer, religious, every kind.” This infiltration has allowed USAID to operate as a covert arm of U.S. intelligence, funding projects that align with geopolitical objectives rather than genuine humanitarian needs. For example, in 2013, a U.S. cable published by WikiLeaks revealed a strategy to undermine Venezuela’s government through USAID by "penetrating Chavez’s political base," "dividing Chavismo," and "isolating Chavez internationally." Similarly, in 2014, the Associated Press exposed USAID’s funding of a Twitter-like platform designed to incite rebellion in Cuba. These actions are not the work of a benign aid organization but of a shadowy entity with a history of destabilizing foreign governments.

The EcoHealth Alliance connection: Funding bioweapons research

From 2009 to 2019, USAID partnered with EcoHealth Alliance, a nonprofit organization, on the PREDICT program. This initiative identified 1,200 new viruses, trained 5,000 people globally in disease detection, and enhanced 60 research labs worldwide. While this may sound like a noble effort to combat pandemics, the reality is far more sinister. According to whistleblowers, this partnership provided the CIA with a direct channel to embed human assets within biological research facilities in exchange for funding and technology transfers. Dr. Andrew Huff, a former Vice President at EcoHealth Alliance, has publicly revealed Dr. Peter Daszak’s alleged ties to the CIA. This connection raises alarming questions about the true purpose of the research conducted at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Was this a legitimate scientific endeavor, or was it a covert operation to develop bioweapons under the guise of public health? The evidence suggests the latter. In 2022, the FBI and the Department of Energy concluded that COVID-19 most likely originated from a lab leak in Wuhan. A senior-level CIA officer has since testified that the agency attempted to pay off six analysts who supported this conclusion, offering them “significant monetary incentives” to change their position and claim that the virus jumped from animals to humans. This brazen attempt to suppress the truth underscores the lengths to which our government has gone to conceal its role in this global catastrophe.

A history of misuse: USAID’s dark legacy

USAID’s involvement in bioweapons research is not an isolated incident but part of a broader pattern of misuse. The agency has been linked to coups in Haiti, Ukraine, Egypt and other nations, often under the pretext of promoting democracy or humanitarian aid. Its $50 billion annual budget and operations in over 100 countries make it a powerful tool for advancing U.S. interests—often at the expense of ethical considerations. The implications of this scandal are staggering. Not only has our government used taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous research that may have caused a global pandemic, but it has also lied to the American people about the origins of COVID-19. This deception has cost millions of lives and shattered public trust in our institutions.

Why this matters today

The revelations about USAID and EcoHealth Alliance are not just a historical footnote; they are a wake-up call for all Americans. If our government is willing to fund bioweapons research and cover up its role in a global pandemic, what other atrocities are being committed in our name? This scandal highlights the urgent need for transparency, accountability and a complete overhaul of how our tax dollars are spent. As former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe told Congress, “a lab leak is the only explanation credibly supported by our intelligence, by science and by common sense.” The American people deserve to know the truth about COVID-19’s origins and the role our government played in this tragedy. It is time to hold those responsible accountable and ensure that such a betrayal of public trust never happens again. The stakes could not be higher. If we fail to act, we risk not only another pandemic but the erosion of the very principles upon which our nation was founded. The truth must come to light—no matter how uncomfortable or inconvenient it may be. Sources include: X.com NYPost.com Reuters.com
