All well-informed Conservatives know that the European Union Globalists and her powerful Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen (VDL) are guilty of weaponizing the Union’s powers against the patriotic forces that oppose their suicidal policies.
Back in April, the Austrian News Site Exxpress reported (translated from the German):
“The suspicion has been around for years, but now it is official: The EU Commission under Ursula von der Leyen has supported environmental organizations with taxpayers’ money – not only for climate and environmental protection, but also for political smear campaigns. The aim of the funded NGOs was to specifically attack critics of Brussels’ climate policy.
The explosive admission: In an official statement, the Commission admits that there have been ‘inappropriate lobbying activities’ in funded NGO programs. This apparently refers to targeted attacks on political opponents who opposed individual EU plans.”
But now, it arises that, in the European Parliament, the conservative European People’s Party and other right wing groups have teamed and approved a group to investigate VDL’s relationship with said NGOs.
The effort was opposed by the outvoted liberals and leftists.
The working group in the Committee on Budgetary Control (CONT) will ‘scrutinize how the European Commission funds non-governmental organizations’.
Euronews reported:
“The group will include 13 MEPs chaired by German lawmaker Niclas Herbst with two co-rapporteurs, from the center-right European People’s Party and the right-wing European Conservatives and Reformists, Parliament sources told Euronews.
The decision came after a spat over the financing of environmental NGOs by the European Commission, accused by the German newspaper Welt Am Sonntag of having secretly paid up to €700,000 to promote the bloc’s climate policy. The Commission denied that it had signed ‘secret contracts’ and claims it exercises a high degree of transparency in providing funding to NGOs.”

The right-wingers were pushing for an inquiry committee, but their request was voted down during the leaders’ meeting of the Conference of Presidents (CoP).
“Instead, the CoP approved a working group, proposed by the European People’s Party (EPP), the largest group in the Parliament, and ultimately backed also by the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) and Patriots for Europe (PfE).”
Socialists, liberals and Greens opposed both proposals.
The working group will conduct investigations with a six-month mandate.
“’The working group will go through every funding contract [between Commission and NGO] to verify if there were any interferences, or if it was foreseen that a part of the performance included in the funding was precisely aimed at lobbying the MEPs’, said ECR lawmaker Carlo Fidanza, during a press conference after the CoP. ‘It is a less invasive instrument compared to an inquiry committee, but we are still satisfied’, he added.”
