Rep. Randy Fine (R-Fla.) hopes to dump the subscription he has registered with The Wall Street Journal following a newspaper bomb report on Thursday.
“I will introduce laws to terminate the House of Representatives subscription agreement with WSJ,” Fine wrote on Social Platform X hours after the report was published. “Americans shouldn’t pay for bad rags.”
“I also instructed all staff to delete taxpayer-funded WSJ accounts,” he added.
The Journal reported this week that Trump signed Epstein in 2003 a “bawdy” birthday note. This was accused of trafficking a young girl for sex, a dishonest financier died while awaiting federal trial, and became a staunchy public sight with Trump’s stubborn Magazine supporters.
According to the journal, “Happy birthdays – every day’s birthdays – and every day may be another great secret.”
Trump denied that he had written the message. This reported that the journal was included in a book of letters to Epstein for his 50th birthday. The president also threatened to publish the story by suing the outlet owned by billionaire Rupert Murdoch.
Trump urged his allies to stop raising what the Justice Department called the “Epstein hoax” after he determined that Epstein would not maintain his “client list” and that he had died from suicide in prison.
“This scam perpetuated by the Democrats should end now!” the president wrote in a post on his Truth Social Website Thursday night.
The Trump administration took x to media subscriptions funded by most taxpayers earlier this year through government efficiency.
When social media followers asked why the federal government is paying for a subscription to the journal, Florida first term House of Representatives replied that it was a “big question.”
“I’m a new guy. I came here three months ago,” wrote Fine. “We’re being blown away by all the crazy things that money is spent.”
