Taxpayer Funded Trump Advertisements [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

I have a money saving nomination for DOGE. How about ending a $200,000,000 taxpayer funded campaign advertisement for Trump? The anti-immigrant ads start with gushing thanks to Trump from DHS Secretary Kristi [dog killer] Noem.

“Thank you, President Donald J. Trump, for securing our border and putting America first," says Noem immediately after introducing herself in the ads. Yep, that's what our taxpayer dollars are being spent on, self serving congratulatory propaganda for the King. https://www.dhs.gov/news/2025/02/17/dhs-announces-ad-campaign-warning-illegal-aliens-self-deport-and-stay-out

Noem last night made clear this taxpayer funded narcissism was Trump's idea. According to Noem Trump told her:

“I want you in the ads, and I want your face in the ads … but I want the first ad, I want you to thank me. I want you to thank me for closing the border.”



This is not The Onion. This is real.
