They would say it was a defense against large scale social deception.

We know what happened. Just lies upon lies.

Our tax dollars funded the global media response to the Covid virus, that our tax dollars paid to produce.

Fauci was doing Nazi level stuff, and he is the ultimate government employee “double dipper”. Meaning he had multiple income sources besides his government salary that would not be present without his position in government.

Your US Congress held real jobs, way back in the day. DC was not a permanent thing.

Wonder what the executive compensation portion was all about. All of the 5 officers got roughly 500k each.

I'm not saying they're innocent, but immediately jumping to assume this is nefarious is probably foolish.

At the same time, have to wonder why Reuters is involved in this process.

Did you have some mocktails or something?

Money. That’s why Reuters is involved, they want money.

It’s a bunch of beggars out there.

You can't just pocket $10,000,000.00 you have to "wash" it some first.
