In a recent speech at the National Prayer Breakfast, President Donald Trump repeated false claims regarding Politico's financial ties with USAID. This comes after his press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, clarified that the funding was for subscriptions rather than direct support. Despite this correction, Trump continued his attack on media outlets, claiming that he had eradicated 'woke' ideologies and falsely alleging that millions of taxpayer dollars were misallocated to promote this agenda. Trump's rhetoric indicates a continued strategy to undermine media credibility while galvanizing his supporters.
So upon coming out here to the briefing room, I was made aware of the funding from USAID to media outlets, including Politico, who I know has a seat in this room.
But we I don't know if you've been watching, but we got rid of woke over the last two weeks. Woke is gonzo. Despite the other side stealing hundreds of millions of dollars to promote woke.
