1 US Govt Airs Second Trump Ad Using 2024 Campaign Footage↩︎ 🇺🇸 US Politics Sep 24, 7:21 PM EDT 21/18

▶The Trump administration is broadcasting a new government-funded television advertisement that utilizes footage and scripts from the president's 2024 reelection bid. In the spot, Trump promises to "demolish the deep state," "expel the warmongers," and "rout the fake news media," marking a shift toward explicit campaign rhetoric in taxpayer-funded broadcasts.
This latest ad follows a previous federal expenditure of at least $443,000 on a commercial that aired on Fox News in major markets 38 days before the midterms. The Senate is probing those expenditures to determine if they violated the federal prohibition on using public money for "publicity or propaganda." The White House has defended the videos as nonpartisan public service announcements, stating that "patriotism isn’t partisan."
