“Over the past decade, Americans have been deceiving, being fired, accused and imprisoned only because they have expressed their opinion. It ends now,” he wrote on KH social networks.

Rubio said the department costs more than 50 million dollars a year.

“I announced the closing of the United States Department for combating manipulation and information intervention with the foreign information, the former Global Interaction Center (GEC), which costs taxpayers over $ 50 million a year and actively quietly and that the American votes should serve,” Rubio said.

The Global Engagement Center, GEC Center was created in 2016 in the US State Department structure. Its main expressed purpose is to prevent foreign propaganda and misinformation, especially from countries such as Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. GEC was closed in December 2024. The center was criticized by many Republicans, claiming it asserted American censorship. Instead of GEC, R/Fimi was created.

Earlier, the media wrote that Rubio was asking the subordinates to report the “anti -christian view” of colleagues.
