In light of the U.S. government’s insane decision to let Qatar open a military base on American soil, I’m re-upping my viral article from last week on the massive scope of Qatari influence in the U.S. — and its FARA activity in D.C. especially.
Let’s break down some key facts 🧵
Qatar is the single largest foreign funder of . universities at $6.3 billion. The D.C.-based Georgetown has received $1 billion since 2005.
Qatar's total U.S. footprint is $93.7B, including $30B in business investments, $29B in weapons purchases, $20B in energy projects, $8B for Al Udeid Air Base, and $6.3B in higher education.
Earlier today, an OSINT outfit called EekadFacts dropped a long thread naming @DahliaKurtz, @VividProwess, and little old me, among others, as part of a “demonization campaign” to link the Global Summud Flotilla to Hamas (which is true).
So, what do we know about EekadFacts? 🧵
Eeekad doesn’t have a website, and none of its employees are named anywhere. That said, Eekad's YouTube page lists it as based in the U.S.
Conversely, its Facebook page shows that Eekad is managed primarily from -- shock of shocks -- Qatar and Turkey.

The New York Times, which has been busy smearing the late Charlie Kirk, found the time to run an op-ed by notorious, antisemitic, rape-denying, Hamas-loving @MustafaBarghou1.

Neo-Nazis, foreign disinformation agents, and terrorist outlets have been lauding Tucker’s speech for suggesting that Jews killed Jesus and Israel killed Charlie Kirk. Let's go through the list🧵
