WeSearchr was a crowdfunding website created by Charles C. Johnson,[1] which featured campaigns listed as "bounties" that users could donate funds to. The site was frequently associated with the alt-right [2] and was suspected to have connections to the Trump administration.[3] It has been accused to be in part be used for doxxing [4] and a change.org petition was set up to get it banned from Twitter.[5]

- a prove that Emmanuel Macron is gay (2017) [6]
- somebody who will find John McCain's "Tokyo Rose" Recordings from North Vietnam (2016) [7]
- proof of "satanic pedo tunnels" under Washington DC (2017) [8]
and collected money for the legal defense of: Encyclopedia Dramatica, Brittany Venti, Laura Loomer, Andrew Anglin and others
