Marco Rubio Kills State Department Anti-Propagada Store, Promises “Twitter Files” Sequel
Until recently, Rubio had been fighting the foreign influence movement. In 2023, the second diplomatic source with direct knowledge said he supported the re-authorization of the GEC funds into the 2030s. He released last September: “Not only Russia, Iran, China, North Korea, and even Cuba are pushing false information to the United States.” However, after being identified as Secretary of State, Rubio seems to have done 180 things. Although the department will continue to fight “the enemy’s propaganda,” he wrote on cable television that any State Department plan that leads or opens the door to censorship of the American people in any way will be terminated. ”
A state spokesman told Wired, “The secretary believes the closing of the GEC is long overdue.” “This has cost taxpayers $50 million a year, and the Biden administration uses the money to silence and censor Americans. A few years ago it was an effort, an effort to resist terrorist groups, and partisan bureaucrats use the office to pursue Americans' free speech. Disband.”
In the first 60 days, the renamed, cut global engagement center escaped obvious practicality, which defeated the U.S. international development agencies and other programs and promoted the U.S. status abroad. But employees there knew this was a temporary execution pause at best. Rubio wrote in his federal professional editor: “Today, we're over it. No matter what name it says, Gec is dead. It won't return.”
Rubio promised in a boring conversation with former State Department official Mike Benz that the story about the GEC would continue, with both well-documented animals, both animals that fit into diplomatic assistance and counter-statement plans, and a long history that promotes peculiar conspiracy theories.
Benz asked Rubio if there would be a kind of Twitter file sequel, this time it was GEC. “Yes. So I think we have to do now, Darren [Beattie] Rubio replied, “Will be involved.”
The Secretary of State promises further “interjudicial” efforts to study who is “dry out” to peddlers of false information or foreign propaganda and whether the U.S. government can blame the U.S. government. “It's important if we can somehow establish a link between what the State Department pays and some information brought by an actual aggrieved party,” Rubio said.
