@robert.poss /No, Politico did not receive $8 million in grants or funding from the Biden administration. The claim mischaracterizes standard federal government purchases of news and data subscriptions. The $8 Million Total: Across 2024, various federal agencies combined spent roughly $8.2 million total to buy commercial subscriptions to Politico Pro, an internal policy and legislative tracking service used across government and private industries.Not Subsidies: Politico stated it has not taken "a dime" of government grants or subsidies, noting the transactions were standard business purchases for news and research products. The Origin of the Claim: Social media posts and figures associated with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) misframed these database and news subscriptions on USASpending.gov as direct financial support to the outlet./
