White House expands taxpayer-funded ad campaign promoting Trump

Original: White House expands taxpayer-paid ad campaign boosting Trump

The Washington Post reports that the White House is expanding a taxpayer-funded advertising campaign that promotes President Trump. The campaign, already running at federal expense, is being broadened, raising fresh questions about the use of public money for political messaging. Critics are likely to frame it as self-promotion at public cost, while the administration defends the ads as official communications.

Why now: A newly reported expansion of government-funded ads favoring the sitting president draws attention over ethics and use of public funds.
