Ultra-Zionist billionaire Robert Shillman was one of Charlie Kirk’s most committed donors. But as Kirk fell under attack for his increasingly critical Israel views during his final weeks, sources say Shillman ended funding for TPUSA. As his campus tour approached, Kirk was subjected to an “almost daily” lobbying campaign from Netanyahu’s allies. The Turning Point USA campus in Phoenix, Arizona is the house that Charlie Kirk built. Consisting of six sterile, two-floor office buildings, the campus is itself a tribute […]

New Jersey area Jewish leadership described a factual Grayzone report about Charlie Kirk’s falling out with Netanyahu as “hateful, divisive, and antisemitic,” and weaponized it to cancel the book event of a Palestinian children’s writer who reposted the article on social media. The New York Times uncritically published the bogus allegation. Palestinian children’s author Jenan Matari says she believes The New York Times “was trying to put a target on [her] back” when it publicized the fact that she recently […]

A month before Charlie Kirk’s killing, billionaire pro-Israel moneyman Bill Ackman arranged an intervention in the Hamptons during which sources say he and others “hammered” Kirk for the conservative leader’s growing criticism of Israeli influence in Washington. Kirk came away fretting about Israeli “blackmail,” sources say, as he began attending Catholic mass. Update: After The Grayzone exposed the covert Hamptons influencer summit, and podcaster Candace Owens provided additional details about the event, Bill Ackman released a lengthy statement declaring, “at […]

The source said anxiety spread within the Trump administration after an apparent Israeli spying operation was uncovered. Charlie Kirk rejected an offer earlier this year from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to arrange a massive new infusion of Zionist money into his Turning Point USA […]

A new report suggests Israel played a key role in establishing the narrative that Iran was behind attacks on Jewish-focused establishments in Australia. The still unproven claim has since been used to poison relations between Tehran and Canberra. Israeli spies provided Australia’s top intelligence agency with a “tip off” regarding at least one of the recent explosions at Jewish community buildings which Canberra has publicly blamed on Iran, according to Australia’s Sky News. “Confidential sources have confirmed that Israel provided […]

AP’s Israel-Palestine news director, Josef Federman, has spun data to minimize the Gaza death count. Leaked documents show he appeared on a panel aimed at assisting “Israel’s ability to effectively portray its narrative” during a gov’t-sponsored propaganda conference chaired by an ex-IDF official who legitimized killing journalists. The Israeli massacre of five journalists in broad daylight on August 24, 2025 at Nasser Hospital in Gaza’s Khan Younis city prompted a sternly worded statement to the Israeli government from the Associated […]

The EU has given Israeli technology start-ups run by ex-IDF soldiers nearly half a billion euros in research grants since the start of the Gaza genocide.

Israel’s military leadership has acknowledged that full occupation of Gaza will cause the killing of the remaining captives. But Netanyahu’s government seems to want them dead. In June 2024, after Israel’s army slaughtered over 200 civilians in Gaza’s Nuseirat Refugee Camp, including several execution style killings to extricate a hostage, Noa Argamani, the Al-Qassam Brigades announced a new policy: if Israel soldiers came too close to areas where captives were held, the prisoners would lose their lives. Israel’s refusal to […]
