According to him, these media outlets, which are funded by the U.S. government, are run by “crazy radical leftists who talk to themselves while burning $1 billion of U.S. taxpayers’ money per year.”

Musk posted his remarks in response to a post on X by Richard Grenell, the U.S. President’s special envoy for special assignments and former Director of National Intelligence.

“Radio Free Europe and Voice of America are media outlets paid for by the American taxpayers. It is state-owned media. These outlets are filled with far left activists. I’ve worked with these reporters for decades. It’s a relic of the past,” Grenell wrote.

Earlier, it was reported that Trump shut down USAID, which had allegedly been operating with limited oversight and funding projects of questionable effectiveness and necessity.
