The Kyiv “Independent” was slapped together in November 2021 with what the Committee to Protect Journalists called “an emergency grant from the European Endowment for Democracy.”  The European Endowment for Democracy is a spinoff of the U.S. government-funded “[[NGO]]” National Endowment for Democracy (NED), which according to its own co-founder was set up to do overtly what the [[CIA]] used to do covertly, namely orchestrate [[coup]]s and manage narratives to advance U.S. interests. A page on an NED website says that “All EU member states are members of EED’s Board of Governors, together with members of the [[European Parliament]] and civil society experts."<ref>https://www.cima.ned.org/donor-profiles/european-endowment-democracy/</ref>  This makes ''The Kyiv Independent'' a media outlet funded by a government-run “NGO” being forcefully pushed in front of millions of western eyeballs on [[Twitter]], a major [[Silicon Valley]] corporation that people have come to rely on for getting information about the world. In the same way Silicon Valley facilitates government [[censorship]] by proxy, it also facilitates government [[propaganda]] by proxy.<ref>https://humanevents.com/2022/03/15/the-fog-of-information-war-in-ukraine/</ref>

:*If she was that close to the investigation Crowdstrike did how credible is she? Her sister Alexandra was named one of 16 people that shaped the election by Yahoo news. '''The DNC hacking investigation done by Crowdstrike concluded hacking was done by Russian actors based on the work done by Alexandra Chalupa? That is the conclusion of her sister Andrea Chalupa and obviously enough for Crowdstrike to make the Russian government connection.'''
