President Trump released a statement on Wednesday, calling for the complete destruction of “LEFTWING DISASTER” and “Democrat mouthpiece” Voice of America.
This comes after White House Senior Advisor to the United States Agency for Global Media (USAGM) Kari Lake testified before the House Foreign Affairs Committee on her agency’s record of waste, fraud, mismanagement, self-dealing, and national security failures.
USAGM oversees several government-funded news media entities, including Voice of America (VOA), Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, and the Office of Cuba Broadcasting.
As Gateway Pundit reported, Kari Lake exposed the agency and its grantees as nothing but a money laundering front for left-wing propaganda and foreign corruption with almost no oversight capabilities.
Lake revealed further revealed the waste, fraud, abuse, and rot in the organization, including “$75,000 spent for COVID study on how Mac computers can be used for social distancing, $100,000 in American taxpayer money to actually sponsor a Afghan Cricket team, $400,000 for quid pro quo payments to African VOA affiliates— and they actually wrote quid pro quo next to the budget item— $825,000 for a New York music show, and $6 million contract for consulting advice that was never even implemented.”
“This place is rotten. It’s rotten to the core,” Lake told the committee. “It is indeed a crime scene.”
No Republican should be for this crap.
President Trump responded to today’s hearing on Truth Social, labeling Voice of America a “Democrat mouthpiece” and calling for Republicans to dismantle and defund the program:
Trump: Why would a Republican want Democrat “mouthpiece,” Voice of America (VOA), to continue? It’s a TOTAL, LEFTWING DISASTER — No Republican should vote for its survival. KILL IT!
It can be recalled that President Trump issued a similar message following a House Oversight Committee DOGE hearing on NPR and PBS, and he later signed an executive order to defund the leftwing fraud organizations.
This is a developing story.
