US President Donald Trump demanded that Reuters return $ 9,000,000, which, according to him, were paid by the US Department of Defense to study “large -scale misleading.” “Return the money immediately!” – He wrote on the social network Truth Social.
The fact that Reuters received millions of dollars from the American budget, said Ilon Musk, head of the department to increase government efficiency. According to him, the money was misleading to the public and we are talking about fraud.
The president demanded that the Politico website return the money. “Why did they pay millions? Is this a bribery in the press? Back the money to taxpayers! And how much did you pay the failure of the New York Times? Didn’t this money keep them afloat? They buy the press!” – he wrote.
