Not really. Daily Wire had problems already. USAID is for building intelligence logistical infrastructure networks prior to intel agency infiltration in foreign governments. Then those grants are embezzled and run through NGO's that typically made their way back to ShareBlue.
ShareBlue, if you haven't heard, is having extreme problems with funding right now.
I'm not saying establishment republicans and zionists weren't funding it for the purposes of controlled opposition; I'm just saying USAID wasn't funding it.
They absolutely did, but given the make-up of the employees at USAID, I'd expect they'd gouge out their own eyes rather than willingly give Matt Walsh money.
(they are right to feel that way, but for the wrong reason)
They were laundering billions through assorted NGOs. I'm sure a good percentage of them weren't terribly squeamish about who they rained cash down on as long as they sowed chaos and confusion.
Get over yourself, I have a life outside of you, and I cover other topics. DW is a center right institution, it's like claiming USAID funds the Rubin Report.
not entirely outside the realm of possibility. unlikely, but not impossible. guys at the top aren't complete idiots, they just play the part on tv. they could have been trying to get that cnn vs fox news dynamic going again in the internet age (ie: what you're supposed to believe vs what you're allowed to believe as Tim Pool puts it).
I do wanna see some reciepts before i jump to conclusions, though. purity spirals only benefit our adversaries...
You're probably right, but you have no way of knowing for certain.
And would you honestly be that surprised if Daily Wire was a CIA psyop? I remember being pretty surprised that they just blew up out of nowhere right around 2016 and not long after started offering millions of dollars to people like Jordan Peterson... And the only source of income I could really see for these people was some ad reads for stuff like Hallow and Dollar Shave Club. Are those plus Jeremy's Razors really worth millions of dollars?
A little, yeah, I'd be surprised. Their efforts for the non-establishment center right were suppression, because there was already an establishment center-right in play.
If our enemies were interacting with the world properly, and weren't smoking their own supply on their own narrative, half the shit they do wouldn't be happening. If our enemies weren't retarded, we'd all be dead.
Instead their wondering if they are a woman and hoping they can get a free monkeypox vax.
I think they are going bankrupt for a couple of reasons. They invested like $200 million into making their own shows and movies and no one watches them. (The exception are Matt Walsh movies) The other reason I can think of is the Ben Shapiro show and Matt Walsh are the only programs people actually care about. Ben lost a lot of viewers after the hamas October 7 attack. He went hysterical and he still is about it. One specific example is that some politician wanted to spend money on our own country and Ben said it would be put to better use giving it to Israel.

This is probably the biggest one of all of the reasons. Sure, we can talk about Ben losing viewers but they were a drop in the overall bucket when he still has well over 100,000 concurrent in a live show and millions over the life of an episode.
But the movie arm? That thing is eating them alive. They werent wrong that conservatives were stupid for abandoning culture, but they (Especially Jeremy) fell into a lot of the old traps that old attempts at conservative media has. So you ended up with lots of movies and shows that were mediocre at best and at worst were little better than the Woke Left slop they were replacing (Lady Ballers and Mr. Birchum go here). THEN they put it behind a paywall where the majority of what you are paying for is politics and that anyone willing to do that was already paying. And from the sounds of it, The Pendragon Cycle is eating them alive and guzzling down money like it is going out of style.
And of course, this is before we get into the fact that apparently none of them want to listen to Klavan (who is probably the only one there with any actual sense of the culture) who has been telling them that movies and TV shows are old news and they should have been looking into video games since that is where actual culture is now.
honestly, i've been thinking simple animated short films based on the old tall tales would be a good start. start with some animated mythology and work from there.
Reclaiming culture is going to take years of consistently putting out a superior product. Tell good stories that have a subtext of what message you're trying to sell. That's what the left used to do for decades before they got too lazy and arrogant and started making overt propaganda. Flipping that paradigm making conservative propaganda with shallow stories isn't going to help anyone.
Bingo. DOGE.gov should offer any forensic accounting firm a percentage of whatever funds they can track down and get a handle on how to recover.
I'm guessing Ben and Jeremy have washed the money through at least half a dozen offshore accounts but a determined team could probably unravel the web.
If Walsh and Knowles left, they wouldn't be abandoning a sinking ship. They would be actively sinking it by leaving. I can't wait for the day it happens.

I mean, they were funding multiple foreign news agencies, and some domestic too, I believe.
Daily Wire isn't a stretch, although it's certainly equally possible they weren't getting anything.

I greatly disagree. They are quite careful about who they fund.
Giz is gone for three weeks.
He comes back to definitively declare DW is for sure not a USAID program.

Yes, but from their perspective, the CNN v. Fox dynamic is still in play. YouTube is the new Platform to have that rivalry.
fair, but even online fox and cnn are getting out-competed by the hippy skateboarder in the beanie, lol.

It's been dying for a couple years at least.

I have always wondered how Andrew Klavan ended up falling in with that group.

This is antisemitic.
Good, we don’t need any more Israeli gatekeeping news outlets. Matt Walsh should look at the writing on the wall and get out of there.
If Walsh and Knowles left, they wouldn't be abandoning a sinking ship. They would be actively sinking it by leaving. I can't wait for the day it happens.
Benecide Shapiro.
Do you have a better link? Where USAID is mentioned?
They have always been losing money. Why make up a retarded conspiracy when the truth is better? There is a reason that they wanted Crowder so bad lol
