Open Whisper Systems received about 3M USD total from the US government via the Open Technology Fund for the purpose of technology development … during 2013 to 2016.

Who knows if there isn't some fundamental and simple flaw with some part of it that nobody is seeing. For what worth the all Snowden could be a major psy-op to make people believe that Signal is really secure and that there are no backdoors into it - after all the guy spends most of the time promoting Signal.
Where on that archive does it say the US government was the one that funded OWS? I don't see it.
