Breitbart;
WASHINGTON, DC – White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed reports that millions in federal funding went to Politico and declared taxpayer dollars would no longer “essentially” subsidize subscriptions to the outlet.
Real America’s Voice Chief White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked Leavitt if the White House had a comment regarding media outlets that “have been dragged” into the conversation about USAID funding. more
Wouldn’t that be considered unconstitutional for the government to be supporting a media outlet?
Free Press my ass.
I just spent a few minutes trying to leave a comment on a “Dispatch” article declaring this a false claim. It seems after 4 comments the system locked up and I couldn’t even read those. Funny, that almost like somebody quickly pulled the plug on the comment section to avoid the ratioing while leaving the false debunking untouched for as long as they can.
Claw every penny back.
Jeez, it’s not even fake news.
It’s scripted. Money whores in bright lights and makeup.
I wonder how much this list will grow?
Supposedly Politico can’t make payroll now.
And we fund PBS/Sesame Street, yet SS sells products online and in stores. We don’t get a cut from that. Or the fugly ass tote bags.

Every last stinking cent
There must be some mechanism to force Politico to pay back the money: or get it from the leftist hack who gave it to them.
Make NPR and PBS run exclusively on viewer supported pledge drives once a month or more and see and see how long that it takes to piss off the left that their federal cash cow has been eliminated. I hate pledge drives and I will not donate a single penny for their anti-American leftwing programming. Or make them take advertisements and commercials like the regular over the air and cable networks do.
I wonder whether a federal crime was committed in packaging aid for Politico as destined for a worthy foreign entity. Seems to be some degree of fraud. Someone with a name and job title must have prepared and signed the necessary paperwork.
Politico = Pravda
