Rep. Lauren Boebert criticized USAID for allegedly funding Politico, echoing claims made by Elon Musk. She claimed no one trusts media funded by the deep state. However, fact-checks revealed that USAID only spent a fraction of the alleged $8.2 million claimed, on a subscription to Politico Pro, a service widely used by Congress members. Additionally, Boebert's office itself pays for this service, exposing contradictions in her position and highlighting the issue of misinformation within political narratives.
Boebert's criticism of USAID's funding for Politico was undermined when it was revealed her own office pays for the same service she disparages.
Despite her claims of deep state collusion, Boebert's actions reflect the manipulation of facts prevalent in political discourse surrounding funding and trust in media.
