Trump allies seek to steer human rights funding to rightwing causes
Original: Top Trump figures push to direct human rights funding to rightwing causes
Figures aligned with Donald Trump are pushing to redirect US human rights funding toward rightwing causes, according to The Guardian.

The report is prompting debate over the politicisation of human rights policy and the use of public funding.
Why now: A new report suggests a significant political realignment of US human rights funding under Trump-aligned figures.
