The report states that the Agriculture, Health and Human Services (HHS), and Labor departments contracted for massive banners featuring Trump&#8217;s portraits or slogans related to his agenda to be displayed on their headquarters. These contracts amounted to over $55,000 in federal funds, with one notable banner promoting HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.&#8217;s &#8220;Make America Healthy Again&#8221; slogan.<\/p>\n<p>Schiff&#8217;s report classifies these banners as propaganda, asserting that using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/exclusive-top-house-republican-calls-for-legal-action-from-states-over-bidens-border-wall-freeze\/\" title=\"EXCLUSIVE: Top House Republican Calls For Legal Action From States Over Biden\u2019s Border Wall Freeze\">appropriated federal funds<\/a> for publicity or propaganda is prohibited by Senate appropriations law.
