🚨BREAKING: Democrats are suing the Trump administration for using $20 million in taxpayer money on campaign-style TV ads promoting Trump. The ads carry explicit disclaimers saying they were paid for by the U.S. government, which the party argues violate federal law.

Court document with case title: Democratic National Committee vs. Donald J. Trump, The White House Office, Office of Management and Budget, and U.S. Department of Homeland Security, filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. The complaint alleges misuse of taxpayer dollars for political advertising.
