Former Trump-admin officials Matt Mowers and Joe Grogan are establishing a non-profit called the EU-US Forum. Their mission is to expose what they term as threatening policies from Europe that are “infiltrating” their way into American governance, including mass immigration and the censorship of political speech.
As a former senior White House advisor at the State Department, Mowers says he is all too familiar with the impacts of such ideologies. “Thanks to the European Union’s left-wing dangerous agenda, Europe has become a hotbed for illegal immigration, the home to mass censorship of free speech, and a case study for the failures of socialism,” he said in a statement.
Together with Grogan, the former director of the White House Domestic Policy Council, the duo says their group aims to combat the spread of socialist policies — like electric vehicle mandates, universal healthcare, and the suppression of free speech — from the European Union into the United States. Their initiative will center around five key policy areas: business and corporate taxation, environmental regulation and policy, meritocracy, political censorship, and immigration policy.
According to Mowers, Europe has turned into a hub for illegal immigration and free speech censorship due to the EU’s left-leaning agenda. He stresses the EU-US Forum’s commitment to resisting “the radical policies originating in Brussels” from gaining traction among American voters.
The EU-US Forum’s policy initiatives reflect a more Eurosceptic stance that was dominant during former President Donald Trump’s first term in office. Meanwhile, the Biden government has undertaken efforts to strengthen ties with the European Union.
