“A day after a federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s efforts to cut off all federal funds to Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, the president’s senior adviser at the agency that oversees the broadcaster withdrew the cancellation of the network’s grants. In a letter to RFE/RL chief executive Steve Capus, Kari Lake wrote that the U.S. Agency for Global Media had ‘rescinded’ the previous letter ‘terminating your grant agreement’ and that Radio Free Europe would continue to receive federal funds for the time being. … In addition to the letter, Lake also filed a response in RFE/RL’s lawsuit notifying the court that the grant termination had been withdrawn, seeking to end the legal standoff with the broadcaster.” (03/27/25)
