Cato Institute

U.S. libertarian

Cato Institute is an independent libertarian think tank, not a traditional news outlet, funded mainly by foundation and individual donations rather than any single owner. It champions free markets, limited government, and civil liberties, which puts it at odds with Trump administration tariffs, expanded executive power, and immigration restrictions, while it still favors the administration's deregulation and tax-cutting moves.

Owned byIndependent nonprofit think tank, governed by its own board of directors (not owned by any company or political party)
