Senators Question DHS Funding for Trump Ads

Murphy and Patty Murray asked DHS to explain its use of taxpayer funds for ads featuring President Trump; coverage describes $20 million in spending.

Left-leaning outlets stress calls for accountability and raise the possibility of impeachment. Center outlets present the dispute over whether the ads were public-service announcements or political promotion, alongside criticism from both parties. Right-leaning outlets foreground the allegation that border-security funds paid for the ads.
