"These are lies" wrote Ben Stiller about a video posted on X and amplified by Musk alleging USAID spent $4M to send the actor on a highly-publicized visit to Ukraine

Ben StillerGetty “These are lies coming from Russian media,” wrote Ben Stiller about a video posted on X alleging USAID spent $4 million to send the actor on a highly-publicized visit to Ukraine after the Russian invasion. The post in question was from an account titled “Patriot Lady.” Earlier in the day, X owner Elon Musk reposted the same video from and account called “I Meme Therefore I Am.” Since it was amplified by Musk this morning, the clip has gotten 2.8 million views on his page. Former Donald Trump lawyer Sydney Powell, who pleaded guilty to six misdemeanor counts of conspiring to intentionally interfere with the performance of election duties in Georgia in 2023, also reposted the video and wrote, “USAID has apparently been one big slush fund for anything the Left wanted.”
