Rep. Ken Buck demands Antony Blinken answer for funding global ‘disinformation’ group linked to George Soros
Rep. Ken Buck, Colorado Republican, asked Secretary of State Antony Blinken in a letter to “cease all current and future taxpayer funding of the GDI” and spell out how much U.S. funding is spent on third-party groups that “implicate the rights of free speech of American citizens.”
Mr. Buck’s office said the funding controversy surfaced after the Biden administration “failed to publicly implement their [Department of Homeland Security’s] Disinformation Governance Board, the ‘Ministry of Truth,’ due to widespread backlash.” The group ranked outfits including The Associated Press, New York Times, USA Today, Washington Post, BuzzFeed News and HuffPost in the category of “least risky.”is listed on the GDI website as a funder, as is the Open Society Foundations, which liberal billionaire George Soros founded as the principal vehicle for donating to his favored causes.
