Sen. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) gave her final Squeal Award of 2022 to President Joe Biden for the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) grant to an obscure group that rates U.S. media outlets and individuals on social media on the basis of how strongly they back federal policies.
“The Biden administration is paying more than $5 million to a group called Hack/Hackers to make lists of organizations and media they think should and should not be trusted," Ernst said in a statement announcing her latest monthly award to spotlight waste, fraud, and abuse in government.
