In a recently aired interview with OnlyFans model Farha Khalidi, the social media influencer tells the president and founder of the Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology, Richard Hanania, that a third party paid her to post "full-on political propaganda" for President Joe Biden's administration.
In the podcast interview, Khalidi says that during college, she was financially sustained by paid promotions on social media, saying:
I was taking ads by the time I graduated college from, like, the Biden administration, Planned Parenthood and, like, dating apps and stuff. So it was, like, fully financially sustaining me.
She clarified that the Biden administration did not reach out to her directly, but a media entity that she believes is a third party acting on his behalf paid her for promotions.
Khalidi said:
It’s not Biden, but it’s, like, a third party. You know what I mean? It’s, like, a media company that’s doing it on his behalf. I’m not blaming him for this.

The social media influencer also claims that she was advised not to disclose to her followers that the paid promotion was an ad. Khalidi said that the company claimed that since the promotion was not for a product, this disclosure was not required.
She said:
The funny thing is they’re, like, ‘Do not disclose this as an ad’ because they [were], like, ‘Technically, it’s not a product, so you don’t have to disclose it’s an ad.’
Khalidi claims that they wanted to use her as an "edgy girl of color" to make claims of feeling represented by the Biden administration's nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson for Supreme Court Justice, saying:
Because I think they just wanted, like, some edgy girl of color to just tell people — like when they nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson, they’re, like, ‘Can you say “as a person of color,” you know, that you feel “reflected”?
The creator pushed back on being used as a person of color puppet and expressed that she was especially annoyed at the prospect of a white person instructing her on how she felt as a racial minority.
Khalidi said:
And I’m, like, ‘No,’ and she’s like, ‘Please,’ and I’m like, ‘No.’ I’ll talk about the news of it, but I’m not gonna be like — I’m not gonna have a white person tell me to be, like, ‘This is how I feel as a person of color.’ It’s just so — I think that black-pilled me slightly on political propaganda.
Yeah, they’re basically, ‘As, like, another black person, can you just say that you feel reflected by Ketanji?’ I’m like, ‘No, I’ll talk about Ketanji’s background and her accomplishments,’ but you know what I mean? I’ll never — I’m not gonna say, like, the corny stuff, even if it was a brown person emailing it to me.
Khalidi is a TikToker, comedian, and OnlyFans model known for her political comedy videos. She gained visibility in late 2022 for her TikTok content and appearances on "manosphere" podcasts like the "Whatever Podcast" and "Fresh and Fit." Khalidi appeared on a recent episode of the "Whatever Podcast," opposite Michael Knowles, arguing about whether women should attend college or not.
