The Associated Press (AP), The New York Times<\/em>, and other far-left, mainstream media outlets have collected millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars from multiple government agencies.<\/p>\n

But a search of USASpending.gov reveals that Reuters News & Media has collected more than $1 billion<\/em> through the years.<\/p>\n

Yet another contract to Thomson Reuters Special Services, an affiliate under the Thomson empire, is also under scrutiny. It came from the Defense Department (DoD) to combat cyberattacks, although the wording of the contract led Elon Musk, chieftain of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), to mischaracterize it on X.<\/p>\n

Reuters Gets Rich on Taxpayers\u2019 Dime<\/h4>\n

The federal government\u2019s out-of-control spending has been the focus of DOGE since President Donald Trump created it<\/a> by executive order on Inauguration Day.<\/p>\n

Since Trump took office, more and more evidence of waste, fraud, and abuse has surfaced<\/a> on social media, much of it from USAspending.gov. Although the scandalous data<\/a> have always been available, only when Musk began looking into spending did the material go viral.<\/p>\n

As The New American <\/em>reported<\/a> last week, AP and the Times <\/em>have raked in millions of taxpayer dollars, as has the hate-Trump Politico<\/em>. The total for the three is upwards of $100 million.<\/p>\n

But Reuters has been an especially favored beneficiary of taxpayer money. Of course, 99 percent of taxpayers knew it.<\/p>\n

The spending website shows that Reuters News & Media Inc. has pocketed $1.2 billion since 2008 from numerous agencies, including the departments of Justice, Treasury, Homeland Security, and Health and Human Services.<\/p>\n

It also pulled in big bucks from the Securities and Exchange Commission.<\/p>\n

Another Reuters affiliate, Thomson Reuters Special Services LLC, has snared $120 million since 2010.<\/p>\n

Musk\u2019s DoD Post<\/h4>\n

Also going viral thanks to Musk is the Thomson Reuters Special Services contract with the Department of Defense.<\/p>\n

Musk retweeted a post about the contract that claimed DoD had paid Reuters \u2014 meaning the media outlet \u2014 for \u201csocial engineering\u201d and \u201clarge scale social deception.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t believe how good this timeline is!\u201d Topher Field wrote:<\/p>\n

Follow this chain of events:<\/p>\n

1. Reuters writes hit piece against DOGE.<\/p>\n

2. Musk tweets, \u2018I wonder what Reuters are being paid?<\/p>\n

3. DOGE uncovers Department of Defence contract paying Reuters for \u2018Large Scale Social Deception.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s crazy that this is happening.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s INSANE that it\u2019s playing out in the public square!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
