The report shows how the European Commission – the unelected executive branch of the European Union – is using European taxpayer money “to promote its political agenda under the guise of advancing ‘EU values’.” In short, the EU is funding NGOs and think-tanks to spread its own propaganda. — The EU’s Propaganda Machine: How the EU funds NGOs to promote itself, brussels.mcc.hu , February 12, 2025

The EU Commission funded more than 4,400 NGOS between 2014 and 2023, but more than 40% of the total sum given to NGOS, or 3.3 billion euros, went to just 30 organizations, making it look,” in the words of the MCC think-tank. “more like a cartel

“These bureaucracies are funding NGOs not to feed hungry people or to advance a broadly agreed upon social agenda. It’s to protect their own interests and to feather their own nests.” — Peter Schweizer, author and US investigative journalist, YouTube, February 19, 2025

“The reality is otherwise: It’s more like an extortion model, it’s more like the mafia, when the mafia shows up at a corner grocery store in America and says you might want to take out insurance with us, because if you don’t your shop might actually burn down. Well, in this scenario…. the government and government officials in the United States and also in Europe threaten and pressure corporations, people who do not share their political views…” — Peter Schweizer, author and US investigative journalist, YouTube, February 19, 2025

That is just the NGOs. The EU Commission also funds an unknown number of other projects. Perhaps the most notable among them, given the enormous amounts of money diverted for it, was the funding of the terrorist entities in the West Bank and Gaza. The EU routinely boasts of being the largest provider of foreign aid to the Palestinians, although it is highly unclear how this, in any way, is in the interest of Europe’s taxpayers.

The European Union is the biggest provider of external assistance to the Palestinians which amounts to indicatively almost €1.2 billion for 2021-2024 under the European Joint Strategy,” the EU boasted in December 2023, just months after the October 7 massacre by Hamas of 1,200 innocent people in Israel.

Then there are all the cases of foreign influence operations in the EU: Qatargate, Huaweigate, and the corruption scandal of Pfizergate. There is the extreme lack of transparency within the European Union and its severely undemocratic decision-making processes, lack of transparency and no mechanism for walking away.

In April, a group of European Parliamentarians, known as the Patriots group, inspired by the US, actually proposed a “DOGE for Europe” at the European Parliament. The initiative, however, also known as TRAC (Transparency, Responsibility, and Anti-Corruption) is facing stark opposition from the mainstream parties in the European Parliament. Maybe they have a lot to hide?

The idea of a European DOGE [Department of Government Efficiency] to clean up the waste and fraud that goes on with EU taxpayer money is slowly spreading in Europe, but more than overdue. Most Europeans are completely unaware of the madness of EU spending on useless, batty projects, including NGOs that have turned out to be a way for many of the EU’s “elites” to receive nice kickbacks.

In February 2025, MCC Brussels, a European think-tank, published a bombshell report, The EU’s Propaganda Machine: How the EU funds NGOs to promote itself. The report shows how the European Commission – the unelected executive branch of the European Union – is using European taxpayer money “to promote its political agenda under the guise of advancing ‘EU values’.” In short, the EU is funding NGOs and think-tanks to spread its own propaganda.

A Syrian “asylum seeker” — in reality, an economic migrant hoping to live off he many benefits the generous Dutch welfare state provides — has been arrested for stabbing to death a 17-year-old Dutch girl. In the week before that killing, he had sexually assaulted two other Dutch girls in separate incidents. In response to the killing, the anti-Islam politician Geert Wilders called for an immediate end to granting asylum to anyone. More on his infuriated demand, in a country where anti-Muslim sentiment is steadily rising, can be found here: “Wilders Calls for ‘Complete Asylum Shutdown’ After 17-Year-Old Girl Stabbed to Death in Amsterdam,” by Kurt Zindulka, Breitbart, August 25, 2025:

Dutch populist leader Geert Wilders has called for a complete shut down of allowing asylum seekers into the Netherlands in the wake of the killing of a 17-year-old girl in Amsterdam allegedly at the hands of an asylum seeker.

Last week, the Netherlands was horrified by the brutal death of 17-year-old Lisa, who was stabbed to death while returning to her Amsterdam apartment following a night out with friends.

On Friday, it was revealed that the 22-year-old suspect in the alleged murder was in the country as an asylum seeker. He is also suspected in two other incidents, including a violent sexual attack on another woman on August 14th and an attempted sexual assault on August 10th, according to Dutch daily De Telegraaf.

Following the disclosure of the suspect being an asylum seeker on Friday, Party for Freedom (PVV) leader Geert Wilders called for an immediate and “complete asylum ban” in the Netherlands.

The call was reiterated in the PVV’s manifesto for the upcoming general election in October released on Saturday. In a forward to the programme, Wilders said that “the Netherlands is full, overcrowded, absolutely overflowing.”

According to the Department of Justice, in the early 1990s, the Muslim Brotherhood, planned to establish a network of organizations in the US to spread a militant Islamist message and raise money for Hamas. The Texas-based Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF) became the chief fundraising arm for the Palestine Committee in the US, created by the MB to support Hamas. In 2008, HLF leaders were convicted of crimes, including providing material support for Hamas.

“Jihad means the fighting of the unbelievers and involves all possible efforts that are necessary to dismantle the power of the enemies of Islam, including beating them, plundering their wealth, destroying their places of worship, and smashing their idols.” — Muslim Brotherhood founder Hasssan al Banna, The Way of Jihad.

Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated groups and networks are also exceedingly active in Europe and are richly funded by EU institutions.

The question is not whether the US government should list the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. The answer to that is clear: yes, it should. A more pressing question is why these pro-jihad, Islamic supremacist organizations affiliated with the MB have been allowed to operate on the US soil for all those years.

US Senator Ted Cruz, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Africa and Global Health Policy, on July 16 introduced the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act of 2025. This bill implements a new, modernized strategy for designating the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) as a terrorist group.

Cruz said:

“The Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist organization, and it provides support to Muslim Brotherhood branches that are terrorist organizations. One of those branches is Hamas, which on October 7 committed the worst single-day massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, which included the murder and kidnapping of at least 53 Americans. They are committed to the overthrow and destruction of America and other non-Islamist governments across the world, and pose an acute threat to American national security interests. American allies in the Middle East and Europe have already labeled the Brotherhood a terrorist organization, and the United States should do the same, and do so expeditiously.”
