Trump ads paid for by US government allegedly violate anti-propaganda laws

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is unlikely to take action against US government-funded ads promoting President Trump's 2020 election campaign, despite allegations that they violate anti-propaganda laws. The ads, which are being paid for by the US Agency for Global Media (USAGM), have been described as 'illegal taxpayer-funded propaganda' by critics. The USAGM has denied any wrongdoing, stating that the ads are intended to promote democracy and freedom of speech, rather than to promote a particular political candidate.
