Their funding can be found in their 2023 annual report, which names Open Society, the Ford Foundation, major US media corporations like News Corporation, Fox News, Newsweek, New York Times, The Washington Post, NBC, ABC News, CNN, and corporations and banks like AT&amp;T, Citi, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=3401\">Nepal\u2019s Oli blames dark forces for his ouster following Gen Z-led riots<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=3377\">Nepal in crisis as PM Oli resigns after Bangladesh-like protests<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMany of the corporations we find funding think tanks promoting sanctions, regime change, and war around the globe or are directly involved in lying to the public to help advance these policies.

No \u2013 they\u2019re all funded by the same circle of US and European governments, Western foundations, and US-based social media platforms that would directly lose influence and impunity in Nepal if the law passed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is why they worked in concerts \u2013 because they are funded by the same foreign interests, pursuing the exact same foreign agenda.
