All source submissions that originally contained this claim.
A 2024 Trump campaign ad, previously used in his presidential bid, has reappeared on national television, now funded by U.S. taxpayer money. Ethics experts suggest this could violate federal laws against using public funds for political propaganda.
President Trump personally instructed his budget director to use $20 million in taxpayer money from the Department of Homeland Security for TV ads praising him and his presidency. These ads have run across major networks and cable, drawing criticism from Democrats and some Republicans for potentially violating federal laws against using public funds for propaganda.
