'According to a source with knowledge of NED’s decision to defund GDI, GOP House Conference Chair EliseStefanik was instrumental in ensuring that GDI no longer would receive financial support from NED.'
Global Disinformation Index , a group funded by George Soros’s Open Society Foundations, has lost financial support from National Endowment for Democracy for its role in demonetizing conservative news outlets, Breitbart News exclusively learned Monday.
“[G]iven our commitment to avoid the perception that NED is engaged in any work domestically, directly or indirectly, we no longer provide financial support to GDI,”“As set forth in our Articles of Incorporation and the NED Act, our mandate is to work around the world and not in the United States,” Wilson explained.
According to a source with knowledge of NED’s decision to defund GDI, GOP House Conference Chair Elise Stefanik was instrumental in ensuring that GDI no longer would receive financial support from NED. Stefanik, an NED board member, has been concerned about the targeting of conservative voices and media, especially GDI seeking to demonetize them.Financial documents show that NED has received over $300 million from the agency since 2021.
“The State Department should not be funding woke organizations who seek to censor and demonetize conservative outlets,” Stefanik said last week. “House Republicans will assert our oversight over the State Department’s funding of these type of groups.”
