Fascism With Your Tax Dollars: Biden Paid Media Millions to Attack Elon Musk's Companies

I'd say I bet you couldn't possibly think the Biden Administration could have sunk any lower than it did, but you know better by now. Every time we think we hit rock bottom, we're handed another shovel.

According to Mike Benz, Executive Director of Foundation for Freedom Online, it was discovered that the Biden Administration paid Reuters over $300 million to investigate and attack Elon Musk's businesses, likely as a way to damage his reputation and make him less of a threat to the Democrat Party. Benz posted the relevant details in a post on X, but you can see it for yourself here

As Benz points out, Reuters even won a Pulitzer for its investigations into Musk's companies. 

The implications here are damning, not just for the Democrats, but for the media as well. Moreover, it's only more fuel for the fire that will be the Department of Government Efficiency, which is headed, in part, by Musk himself. 

To be clear, this is the weaponizations that Democrats said Trump would bring about if he were elected. The Biden Administration has made little to no effort to hide its willingness to attack people who disagree with the left's agenda, whether they be parents pushing back against CRT or the transgender agenda or January 6 protesters.

But here we see the government actually paying corporate media millions of dollars to attack its enemies as well. This isn't just ideological alignment resulting in friendly reporting. This is a President paying a media company that touts to be an unbiased source of news to go after one of his political enemies. This discovery is going to be another nail in the coffin for the already dying reputation of the corporate media. 

Reuters should have no right to call itself a news outlet, but a propaganda wing of the Democrat Party. 

And all of it at your expense, as these reports were the impetus to for Biden to send 11 different government agencies after Musk. 

The definition of fascism is "associated with a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, and that is characterized by severe economic and social regimentation and by forcible suppression of opposition," according to Merriam-Webster. 

I think it's pretty clear that the Biden Administration, and the Democrat Party, fit this bill pretty well. This is taxpayer-funded fascism as presented to you by the left, which is hilarious as fascism is often associated with being "far-right."

The question now is what will be done about it? 

We'll see soon enough, but one thing is for sure, the legacy media can't die fast enough. Moreover, if the Biden administration was willing to do this, then what else haven't we uncovered yet? How deep does the corruption go. 

I have a feeling that in a matter of weeks, we'll start uncovering some shocking truths about how far the corruption went under the Biden Admin, and that more than just Reuters benefited from a fascist government willing to pay them to damage their political opponents.
