Emilia Kamińska decided to blow up the net in the evening. The USAID scandal and its impact on the overthrow of the PiS government is no longer just a theory. That's already a documented fact. We knew there were manipulations in the election.
President Trump and Elon Musk are right to say that U.S.ID's money influenced elections in another countries to overthrow conservative governments. This was the case in Poland in 2023. For respective days now, a list of organizations and projects in Poland financed by USAID has been circulating, but it is incomplete. An example is the Centre for Civic Education (CEO) and projects “Election Lantern” and “Young people vote”.
Let's start with the task “Election Lantern” @LatarnikCEO which was funded from abroad money including the USAID utilizing German Marshall Fund prosthesis. (CEBRICS) what we can read on their website. On the side of the German prosthesis @gmfus We find out what CEBRICS is. But that's not all.
The Electoral Lantern was pushily promoted in all media favoring the then opposition. Articles, interviews, instructions for usage and consequence that suggested the organization to vote for in the election of 15 October 2023.
Before the election itself there was no day that the banner of the Election Lantern would not pop out of each hole. A set of selected 20 questions practically always suggested that the closest you are to the Civic Platform or Left. Remember, for many of you have besides fulfilled it and have wondered or laughed. But it was not for you this lighthouse keeper, he was directed under a circumstantial group of voters—those indecisive, mostly young and incumbent, who were bombarded that you had to go to elections.
This is what the Onet Election Lantern promotion looked like.

Here are examples of the effects of manipulation among undecided voters
Even OKO PRESS had doubts about the selected questions and conducted the experiment, after which the president Witkowski was asked whether it was left-wing tilt. And the president replied that it is not a left-wing tilt, but a pro-European one. The Radio TOK FM website besides featured an article on the infidelity of the Election Lantern. See for yourselves.
President of CEO Jędrzej Witkowski has repeatedly criticized publically both in the media and at his place on social profiles the educational laws proposed by Minister Czarnek and participated in the political undertaking of the candidate for president of Poland Trzaskowski on behalf of the Platform. His social media entries like the politicians of this organization and he besides very frequently launders their posts.
It is worth noting that the president of the Centre for Citizen Education Jędrzej Witkowski, immediately after the election on October 15, 2023, became the squad coordinator at the MEN for the programme basis for the subject of civic education, which the subject denied HIT.
The same applies to the second “Young Vote” project, which is besides funded by the USAID and the German Marshall Fund. The Centre for Civic Education boasts that more than 100,000 teachers have already trained and over 3 million young people aged 13-19 have participated in primary schools. Thus, under the cloak of civilian society, they effort to influence the young generation of Poles. Will abroad money affect the result of the elections in the upcoming presidential elections?
For a good fewer years, projects of the Centre for Civic Education have been present in a immense number of Polish schools, specified as training for students, teachers or school directors, or in the form of primary schools. See what questions are asked in surveys by young Poles
It is worth recalling the debate a fewer years ago at the Jagiellonian University erstwhile Rose Thun was inactive in the PO and together with Michał Bonim and among others the employees of the Batory Foundation boasted that for European money they were working with influencers on the instagram so that for money they would press their narrative. That's most likely how it works today.
One example of the September 2023 polls, a period before the election. Undecided (as the CEO said) "Our main goal is to scope people who are not profoundly curious in politics) was close to 15% of voters and what it is with 22 million votes cast. You can number the impact on elections in Poland and have specified manipulations for abroad money.
German foundations, EU grants, Soros money, USAID and even direct subsidies from abroad embassies – this is only part of the mechanics of influence on our country!
Who gets that money? Are abroad means serving Poland or alternatively controlling our society? What organizations usage abroad government money? Does the Polish government control this? I fear these questions will stay unanswered...
