The Biggest, Most Corrupt News Organization You Have Never Heard of
The Organized Crime Reporting Project

What if you knew that there was an organization called the Organized Crime Reporting Project (OCCRP), which claims to be one of the largest news organizations in the world, with 200 staff members that is partnered with more than 50 independent media outlets worldwide, but whose fundamental mission is to instigate regime change in countries or entities deemed hostile to the United States?


How is this accomplished? With an annual budget of around 23 million, OCCRP leverages its substantial financial resources to investigate individuals and governments for crimes or misconduct in nations deemed hostile to U.S. interests. OCCRP then collaborates with the Global Anti-Corruption Consortium (GACC) to initiate criminal investigations or sanctions based on its reporting. Lastly, OCCRP joins forces with the CIA-affiliated organization "Transparency International" to develop initiatives aimed at regime change.

The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) is a worldwide collective of investigative journalists established in 2006, primarily funded by USAID and the Soros Foundation. It claims to focus on revealing international corrupt financial transactions, organized crime, and corruption—solely focused offshore and published through local media outlets. Its aim appears to be to influence political movements and shifts in nations not aligned with US interests, without those nations realizing that the USA and George Soros are behind this influence.

OCCRP publishes its investigative stories through local media and on its website. The organization conducts more than 60 cross-border investigations annually and trains journalists in reporting techniques. OCCRP also develops practical tools to enhance the efficiency of reporting and publishing.

In 2017, “NGO Advisor” ranked OCCRP 69th in the world among the top 500 non-governmental organizations.

USAID’s involvement in OCCRP

The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) has been found to have significant involvement (entanglement?) with the US Agency for International Development (USAID).

USAID Funding: The US government provided 52 percent of the money spent by OCCRP between 2014 and 2023.
OCCRP's Independence: Despite presenting itself as an independent organization, OCCRP's management has placed it in a position of structural dependence on the US government,

USAID has complete veto power over appointing key personnel and “helps” direct the organization's annual work plan. USAID has been called “the new CIA" - and this makes its intimate involvement with OCCRP operations highly suspect.

Investigative Focus: OCCRP focuses on foreign governments and entities hostile to American interests, while the organization infrequently investigates its allies.

OCCRP is a key founding partner and leader of the Global Anti-Corruption Consortium (GACC). This program aims to trigger criminal investigations or sanctions proceedings based on OCCRP's articles.
The U.S. government is the primary funder of GACC, having contributed $10.8 million through USAID, but another top funder is the Open Society Foundations (OSF). Founded by George Soros, OSF has provided grants to OCCRP, a key partner in GACC (1).

Finally, OCCRP partners with Transparency International, which Michael Hershman (a former member of US military intelligence) founded. He holds several other key positions, including director at the Centre for International Private Enterprise, Head of Recruitment for FBI informants, and Managing Director of the private intelligence firm Fairfax Group.
Transparency International has been called a front for the CIA's economic intelligence operations. Additionally, it serves as a media tool to convince countries to revise their laws to “promote open markets.” According to Wikispooks, Transparency International is used as a pressure mechanism in the US government's regime change efforts.

Transparency International is funded through the US State Department, the European Commission, the US State Department’s National Endowment for Democracy (NED), Britain’s Department for International Development, and the Open Society Foundations (owned by billionaire George Soros).
OCCRP acts as a propaganda tool for the US government, serves as a media instrument to persuade countries to amend their laws, and OCCRP is utilized as an internal force within the borders of non-US aligned sovereign nation-states to drive regime change initiatives.

However, OCCRP has gone beyond persecuting entities and governments it deems hostile; it now appears to have moved into the realm of influencing the elections of allies to the United States.
