Kari Lake’s decision to reinstate a grant to Radio Free Europe comes after a federal judge signaled that he would side with the broadcaster in its lawsuit against the administration
The Trump administration, via senior advisor Kari Lake, withdrew the grant termination for Radio Free Europe, ending a lawsuit by the broadcaster after a federal judge signaled he would side with RFE in the case. This reversal came after the judge temporarily blocked the administration's efforts to cut off federal funding to RFE/RL. The administration also faces other lawsuits over its attempted dismantling of USAGM, including actions taken against Voice of America.
