State-Sponsored Media

One of the most eyebrow-raising aspects of the bureaucracy known as USAID was that its budget for 2025 allocated $268 million to support independent media and the free flow of information in other countries. Now, just who do you think is deciding what “independent media” is?

Here’s a shocking fact: 90% of all media outlets in Ukraine receive funding from USAID. One Ukrainian media outlet gets 80% of its entire budget from USAID, your tax dollars.

In 2023, 6,200 journalists in more than 700 media outlets and 279 media nongovernmental organizations in 30 countries received your tax dollars. Yet, the same federal government cannot find the money to provide Americans in western North Carolina with decent shelters until their homes can be repaired.

And while USAID is funding these media outlets, they are promoting anti-Christian values, including LGBTQ ideology and abortion worldwide.

If this can’t be stopped, democracy really is going to lose -- right here in the United States!

By the way, FEMA, which we were told was broke, just found another $59 million. But it didn’t go to help people in North Carolina. It was used to house illegal aliens in luxury New York City hotels. Musk wrote that these payments “violated the law and is in gross insubordination to the President’s executive order.”

Thankfully, the acting administrator of FEMA suspended those payments and said, “Personnel will be held accountable.”
