President Trump is tapping $20M in Homeland Security funds to pay for TV ads that heavily feature him ahead of the midterm elections, Democrats said Tuesday as the promos critics call propaganda come under bipartisan attack. @jonshorman.bsky.social reports for @statesnewsroom.com

Trump TV ads paid for with $20M in Homeland Security funds, Dems find • Louisiana Illuminator
The Trump administration recently moved the funds into a U.S. Customs and Border Protection budget line intended for “commemorative events” related to border security, according to federal records.

We found some more fraud, waste, and abuse. The third government-funded Trump ad has been identified by AdImpact in recent days. The latest ad is nearly identical to a video Trump posted during his 2024 presidential campaign. It shows him walking down a hallway declaring, “This is the final battle.”

WTAF???? Watching an #nfl game and this ad comes on. Literally sick to my stomach.
