In a stunning betrayal of President Trump's America First agenda, Republicans in Congress just approved a massive $643 million funding package for the U.S. Agency for Global Media—the same propaganda outfit Trump tried to eliminate last year.
This isn't just about money, patriots. This is about Republicans choosing the establishment swamp over the mandate they were given by American voters. The U.S. Agency for Global Media has long been criticized as a taxpayer-funded propaganda machine that often works against American interests abroad.
President Trump clearly understood the threat this agency poses to his foreign policy vision. His attempt to shutter the broadcasting agency last year was a direct strike against the administrative state that has undermined America for decades. Yet here we are, watching Republicans hand them nearly three-quarters of a billion dollars.
The Swamp Protects Its Own
What makes this betrayal even more infuriating is the timing. We're less than a month into Trump's second term, and already we're seeing the same old pattern: campaign promises to drain the swamp, followed by business-as-usual Washington spending.
This agency doesn't serve American families struggling with inflation. It doesn't secure our border or bring down gas prices. Instead, it spreads globalist messaging around the world while American taxpayers foot the bill.
"Unity wins out," Fox News reported—but unity with whom? Certainly not with the 75 million Americans who voted for Trump's agenda.
The real question patriots need to ask is simple: If Republicans won't stand with Trump against a propaganda agency he specifically targeted for elimination, what other parts of his agenda will they abandon when the deep state pushes back?
This $643 million betrayal is a wake-up call. The swamp doesn't just include Democrats—it includes every Republican who puts Washington's interests above America's. Time to hold them accountable.
