President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday aimed at gutting the parent of U.S. government-funded media outlet Voice of America and six other federal agencies, his administration's latest step to shrink bureaucracy.
VOA, an international media broadcaster that operates in more than 40 languages online and on radio and television, is overseen by the U.S. Agency for Global Media. The agency also funds Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and Radio Free Asia.
The order represents the latest step by Trump to remake the federal bureaucracy, a task he has largely put in the hands of tech billionaire Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency. So far, the DOGE effort has produced potential cuts of more than 100,000 jobs across the 2.3 million-member federal civilian workforce, the freezing of foreign aid, and the cancellation of thousands of programs and contracts.
Some Republicans have accused VOA and other publicly-funded media outlets of being biased against conservatives. Last month, Musk called for VOA and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty to be shut down in a post to his X social media platform.

So much for Kari Lake’s new job.
WINNING!
HOORAY President Trump! Winning.
Kari Lake is 100% for erasing far left propaganda from the VOA.
“””So much for Kari Lake’s new job.””
Maybe her job was to gut the thing.
Was an autopen used for signing? (/S)
When she finishes that task she can gut another agency of leftist fish.
Congress needs to get their #### together and pass real budgets that actually eliminate these agencies.
No more continuing resolutions that just fund everything and whatever corruption and pork can be packed into them in the middle of the night.
It was. Like Linda McMans was to kill the department of education
She’s a very cool person.
Agreed—she has the right “attitude”—does not care if the leftists or squishy soft conservatives hate her.
That is what we need in these revolutionary times.
So much for Kari Lake’s new job.

RE: gutting the leftist fish....
I heard she was working for scale.

SCORE!
VOA is a Cold War relic!
As is NATO in its current form and as is the UN (But it’s a WWII relic!) in its current form.
But how will the world learn about transgender children now? /s
The BBC offers a wide variety of foreign language news.
