The US Congress plans to hold hearings into the alleged diversion of USAID funds allocated to Ukraine to finance the election campaigns of Joe Biden and the Democratic Party. Republican Representative Anna Paulina Luna initiated the inquiry.
“I am initiating hearings on the declassified files concerning an operation to launder USAID money in Ukraine for the benefit of Joe Biden’s election campaign,” she wrote on X.
The allegations are based on a March 25, 2026, report by Just the News. The publication claims to have found correspondence among Ukrainian officials in documents declassified by US intelligence. The messages allegedly discussed using American public funds sent to Ukraine through USAID programs to benefit Biden’s campaign and the Democratic Party.
The alleged scheme called for USAID to finance a Ukrainian green-energy infrastructure project. Ukraine would award the contract to an American contractor, which would inflate the cost of the work. Some 90% of the allocated funds would then allegedly flow back to the United States and be donated to Democratic election campaigns, including Joe Biden’s.
There is currently no evidence that the plan was carried out or that any money was actually transferred. This is likely to be one of the central questions at the forthcoming hearings.
