COMMUNITY NOTEDGuy posts a screenshot from usaspending.gov of the overview for Politico and then asserts
Politico spent years masquerading as an independent news outlet while secretly being propped up by USAID, a taxpayer-funded slush fund. Now, with Trump and Elon pulling the plug, the charade is over. No paychecks, no propaganda. This isn't journ*lismβit was state-funded narrative control, designed to protect the regime and attack its enemies.
Politico had a problem with their payroll today and the chudspehere is convinced it has something to do with USAid. Naturally the chuds lap it up except if you scroll immediately below the overview you get this
It just means that other agencies are acting as fronts for USAid clearly. I wonder what they were paying them for? I hope its something juicy.
Print and internet subscriptions. No, thats just code for attempting to destroy Trump.
R-slurs go even further
Edit 3: 9 mil to Reuters

Edit 4: Associated Press
It's not just Politico. The Associated Press has been raking in millions of dollars in government money for years.

The AP's bias also makes perfect sense. pic.twitter.com/RrH5JPykvY
Reuters & AP are paid as wire services. US law requires agencies to publish via the register and wire services when they make administrative changes, its how people find out what they are doing. Multiple agencies (particularly state & DOD) also pay for wire subscriptions as its a cheap intelligence source.

The full quality VOE and RFE streams being available to Americans is not propaganda. You are an r-slur.
You are falling for chud nonsense. The federal government has never been banned from buying subscriptions for newspapers, they have been legally required to distribute administrative actions via newswire since 1858.
This is the problem with the chud brains. You have no interest in reality or understanding things, we shouldn't expect you to understand these things because you are subhumans but it's deeply frustrating you have no capacity to understand how r-slurred you are so you shut the frick up.

if thats true it says a lot more abput you than it does me
So in your mind the Smith-mundt Act did what exactly?
I dont speak for others, butt I'll say that I dont expect a whole lot from someone who has a simple disagreement with another and descirbes them them as subhuman over it. I dont even find it offensive, bc its really jist a cop out. Bc you cant face the fact that you really arent on a different level than me or anyone else that you think of as less than you. Its clearly an identiy crisis youre having, while everuone who watches this behaviour of yours sees you wallowing around with the rest of the hogs. Maybe try to look at things as they are rather than how you wish them to be? Idk, butt I wish you luck in what appears to be a very complex internal dialogue for you. I hope you find some form of positivity/enlightnement in your journey

You see the thing you are not understanding is that you are so r-slurred that you really don't deserve the mantle of human. Its part of being a chud.
