The "state-run propaganda" Trump claims to dismantle is actually America’s last firewall against his own. While NPR/PBS get defunded for daring to cover racism and LGBTQ lives, RT celebrates as he guts Voice of America—handing Putin XX% of USAGM’s carcass by July 2025.  

Congress just rubber-stamped his $1.1B CPB cuts—starving Pittsburgh’s PBS of $1.8M/year—as Project 2025’s architects high-five. They’re not shutting down propaganda; they’re rebranding it. When Kari Lake (who wants journalists jailed) oversees USAGM while Musk cheers the VOA purge, autocracy isn’t looming—it’s broadcasting live.  

Democracy dies when truth-tellers get defunded…and bullies get megaphones.
