Rubio Slams the Censorship Machine
The liberal media is losing it. Secretary of State Marco Rubio just slammed a deep state censorship regime. He shut down the State Department’s Counter Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference office—a rogue outfit that misused taxpayer dollars to silence conservatives.
This office was originally sold as a tool to battle foreign disinformation. In reality? It was a censorship machine funding groups to muzzle American voices. Under President Trump’s leadership, this abuse was finally nipped in the bud. That’s what happens when America-first leadership takes charge.
Rubio didn’t hold back. He declared: “This is antithetical to the very principals [sic] we should be upholding and inconceivable it was taking place in America. That ends today. Under the administration of President Trump, we will always work to protect the rights of the American people, and this is an important step in continuing to fulfill that commitment.”
The office burned through $50 million per year. It wasn’t just wasting money. It was even funding third-party groups to “tag and label voices in American politics,” as Rubio revealed. In plain English, your tax dollars were being used to shut down free speech.
The liberal outlet Politico complained that this move hurt the fight against “foreign disinformation.” Rubio hit back: “They were also taking money from this program and using it to fund these NGOs, these third-party groups who were supposed to be impartial. Those groups were then tagging—They were literally tagging and labeling voices in American politics.”
This wasn’t about tackling foreign enemies at all. It was about muzzling domestic dissent—especially when it came to conservative voices that challenge the left’s agenda. The fact that such an office was allowed to run for years is a scandal. Only under Trump’s watch was this corruption exposed and taken down.
Rubio added: “Before President Trump took over and they disbanded this unit, they just renamed it and moved it somewhere else. But now over the last few months, we’ve worked on it and just taken it down.” That kind of accountability makes the Democrats and their media allies squirm. It shows just how deep in trouble the censorship-industrial complex really was.
WATCH
While the left cries about “misinformation,” the real falsehood came from their own government. They slapped a “dangerous” label on accurate reporting while letting actual foreign propaganda fly free. Rubio made his stance crystal clear: “We are going to spend money on messaging. It’s going to be pro-American messaging.” No more funding left-wing NGOs to attack Americans. No more shadow-banning conservatives. Under Trump, America’s voice is being turned up—not muted.
This victory wouldn’t have been possible without President Trump’s bold leadership. The left wanted this censorship apparatus to stick around to control the narrative and crush opposition. But Trump and his administration are tearing down the deep state, one rogue office at a time.
