Look at you simping for Putin the mass murderer and implying Ukraine deserves it because a tiny portion of the population identifies as neo-Nazis - you could say the same about the US.
And before you keep spreading more lies, please show me the quote where I called for American troops to be sent to Ukraine. If you can't do it, stfu because you are pulling shit out of your ass.
How am I doing that when I said fuk both? Only one here simping is you for the Nazi's
Dude, just stfu with your weird shit. I don't care if you dislike me but quit inventing things about me that I haven't said and/or make no sense. What a strange bird you are.
When will you people ever learn to never trust anything coming from Trump or the maga swamp?
"Becker and Johnson’s claims are false. The only payments received by Politico LLC from USAID were for two subscriptions to E&E—an energy and environment publication it produces—totaling $44,000 over two years.
According to USAspending.gov, an official source for U.S. government expenditure data—and the resource used by Becker in his post—Politico received $8.2 million in total payments from government departments and agencies between fiscal year 2016 and fiscal year 2025. However, only $44,000 of this total came from USAID.
In September 2023, a staff assistant for the Center for Environment, Energy, and Infrastructure—part of USAID’s Bureau for Development, Democracy, and Innovation—purchased a subscription to E&E for $20,000. According to E&E, prices for its professional subscription packages typically start in the upper four-figure range and vary based on how many users have access to a subscription. Another subscription to E&E was purchased in September 2024 for $24,000 by the Center for Climate Positive Development—an office within USAID’s Bureau for Resilience and Food Security.
Funds received by Politico LLC from other government agencies also came mostly from subscriptions to E&E, or for the company’s policy intelligence platform, Politico Pro. The largest spenders have been the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Department of the Interior (DOI), and Department of Energy (DOE).
In July 2020, for example, HHS paid $73,857 for a Politico Pro subscription licensed for 37 users. The department exercised options to extend the contract in 2021 and 2022, and eventually increased its subscription to 49 users in 2023 for $130,185. The DOI similarly purchased a subscription to E&E in September 2021 for $200,000, which it has been extending since. The DOE has also been extending a Politico Pro contract since June 2020 for a four-year total of more than $400,000."
No, Politico Did Not Receive ‘Substantial Funds’ from USAID
Various government agencies have purchased subscriptions to its publications since 2016.

dont get lazy on me with c&p straight from the echo chamber…its way funnier when you pretend to be so stupid you try paraphrasing their word salads.
nobody with anything exceeding a room temperature iq doesn’t immediately recognize those bullet points for the clear-as-mud attempt to avoid admitting being completely full of sht it is. It’s pathetic, quite frankly. I mean this is a complete crock of shit devoid of anything remotely approaching a passable justification for their existence. I expect more…be better
