Gettr, which was founded in 2021 as a MAGA-aligned alternative to Twitter, has floundered in the wake of the indictment and imprisonment of fugitive Chinese mogul Guo Wengui, who federal prosectors allege controlled Gettr and financed it with fraudulently obtained funds. In February 2024 it has now apparently laid off much of its staff and is close to shutting down. Gettr CEO Ken Huang and its former CEO, Trump adviser Jason Miller, referred Mother Jones’ requests for comment to Robin Mokhtar, who recently stepped down from a job as the company’s chief financial officer. People familiar with Gettr’s operations said it is now effectively run by a longtime Guo lawyer, Aaron Mitchell. Gettr has acknowledged paying prominent right-wing figures—including Turning Point USA leader Charlie Kirk, Dinesh D’Souza, Jack Posobiec, and Andy Ngo—to use the site.
