Trump-friendly TV ads funded with border protection money, official says
Original: Pro-Trump TV ads paid for with Customs and Border Protection money, official says
A federal official says television ads supportive of President Trump were paid for using Customs and Border Protection funds. The claim raises questions about the use of taxpayer money for political messaging and could draw scrutiny from oversight bodies and Congress. No further details on the ads' cost or reach were given.
Why now: Allegations of government funds being used for partisan political advertising would be a significant potential ethics and legal violation.
