USAID Caught Red-Handed in Censorship Conspiracy

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is allegedly implicated in a vast, government-backed censorship scheme, according to internal documents obtained by law group America First Legal through ongoing litigation against the U.S. Department of State's Global Engagement Center (GEC).

Copies of communications released Thursday reveal an alliance among USAID; the GEC; the British Foreign, Commonwealth, & Development Office (FCDO), which is the UK's foreign affairs ministry; and multiple media censorship firms, "all working in lock-step to manipulate public discourse, control media narratives, and suppress free speech," particularly that of dissenting voices, America First Legal says.
