Donald Trump signs an executive order to dismantle the control agency in America; Employees put an administrative leave

Donald Trump targets America and other international broadcasting entities funded by the United States, as it signed an executive on Friday to eliminate their control agency jobs.

The employees have been informed this morning that they were placed on an administrative leave with wages, but they must be available to work if they are directed to do so, according to a memorandum obtained by the New York Times.

Trump’s order to the US Agency for Global Media and Other Points calls for “reducing the performance of its legal functions and employees associated with the minimum existence and the job required under the law.”

In addition to Voice of America, the American Global Media Agency supervises Europe Radio/Radio Freedom and Free Radio, among other entities. But Trump’s command may face less restrictions than the action of Congress, which over the years has tried to protect press entities from political influence.

Voice of America is the best known entity among broadcasting entities, and works with a budget of about $ 370 million. Trump Carrie Lake, who has long been loyal to the entity, has chosen, but her appointment must be approved by the Consultative Council of the Seven International Broadcasting. Instead, a lake works as a private consultant, and it attacked Voa. In a message about X after Trump’s executive order, I wrote, “If you are an agency employee, please check your email immediately for more information.”

During his first term, Trump targeted America’s voice, which raised fears that he would try to use the broadcasting entity as his own personal propaganda engine. Michael Pak, the documentary director, chose to lead the US Agency for the World Media. His mandate was turbulent, as the leaders of some broadcasting entities fired and installed Trump’s loyalists. The International Broadcasting Law in 1994 “is prohibited by any US government official in independent and independent news of news,” according to VOA.

This term, Trump nominated E. Brent Bozell, a long -term conservative activist, to lead the US Agency for World Media, but still faces confirmation in the Senate.
