‘It weaponized itself in the name of partisan politics, targeted innocent people, and sought the censorship of American citizens’
The federal government’s Global Engagement Center, a division of the State Department, long has made Republicans and conservatives angry over its tax-funded censorship schemes that it launched under Democrat leadership.
Now it’s apparently going to be put out of business.
WND previously reported the center was responsible for sending money to a London group, Global Disinformation Index, which used the $100,000 American tax money, to “pressure advertisers to boycott conservative media.”
A few weeks ago, Congress issued a subpoena for information about that agenda.
Now, the Washington Examiner is reporting the State Department has told Congress it plans to end the agency entirely.
In a court filing regarding the censorship scheming, lawyers for State said the staff at the Global Engagement Center, and funding for it, will be assigned to other parts of the department.
