GARM Pushed GDI's (Global Disinformation Index -London-based) blacklist
GDI received $100,000 from the State Department’s Global Engagement Center and $545,000 from the National Endowment for Democracy.
rather than using an objective rubric to guide decisions, GARM members simply monitored disfavored outlets closely to be able to find justification to demonetize them.

holy crap. Everyone of them belongs in jail or worse. Nobody's going to build jails and put them in because politicians certainly won;t do a thing about it, Every single one of them has campaign funds because they're stupid, and are scared shitless of them, not the people.
If you google them there's nothing but returns saying how good they are
