Date: February 6th, 2025 12:28 AM Author: DrakeMallardxo (🦆) FACT CHECK The $20K annual subscriptions were funded by OTHER AGENCIES.
FOUR PINOCCHIOS
—
Becker and Johnson’s claims are false. The only payments received by Politico LLC from USAID were for two subscriptions to E&E—an energy and environment publication it produces—totaling $44,000 over two years.
According to USAspending.gov, an official source for U.S. government expenditure data—and the resource used by Becker in his post—Politico received $8.2 million in total payments from government departments and agencies between fiscal year 2016 and fiscal year 2025. However, only $44,000 of this total came from USAID. |

Date: February 6th, 2025 12:48 AM Author: DrakeMallardxo (🦆) Given comparable news sites go for a few hundred per year, it beggars belief that Politico is charging $20K per annum for legitimate subscriptions to non-governmental customers.
An easy way to check, is to ask Politico how many of these subscriptions are to government customers versus non-governmental customers. My guess is that the latter number is negligible, if nonexistent, which would bolster the case that these “subscriptions” are simply patronage
Happy to be wrong though! Feel free to bump if it comes out randos are paying $1.5K a month for Politico stories |

Why are we supposed to feel better that the federal Government paid 8.1mm on politico subscriptions?
A subscription there is like $200/year. $8.1 million is a lot of subscriptions |
