-No Politico journalist should ever be trusted again-

In a revealing turn of events, it has been uncovered that Politico, purportedly a bastion of objective journalism, has been receiving funds from various U.S. federal government agencies, including the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of Education, and the Department of Agriculture. Even more concerning, subagencies like the FDA, EPA, and CDC have been financing this outlet, raising serious questions about Politico's editorial independence and integrity.

The obvious question arises: why would these agencies, known for their influence on public policy, be funding a media organization? The answer is not surprising. Every headline, every article from Politico seemed to perfectly align with the "swamp's" interests on critical national issues, showing a clear governmental agenda.

Take, for instance, the massive misinformation campaign around Hunter Biden's laptop story. Politico was one of the main promoters of the narrative that the laptop story was Russian disinformation, a lie used to sway public opinion and, according to many, alter the outcome of the 2020 presidential elections in favor of Joe Biden. Now we know this narrative was not only false but a vile manipulation of the truth, conveniently spread by Politico acting as a propaganda arm of the federal government.

This funding scandal has reached new depths of infamy when it was revealed that Politico, so reliant on government subsidies, could not pay its employees, citing a "technical glitch". Should we believe this excuse? It's doubtful, especially considering the timing of this "error" with the revelation of their funding sources.

The conclusion is clear: no Politico journalist who participated in this propaganda effort should ever be considered trustworthy again. Trust in the media is built on truth and independence, and Politico has shown itself to be a puppet of political agendas. Transparency should be the standard, and government funding of media must be scrutinized to ensure that free press does not become an instrument of control and manipulation.
