I completely self-funded my humanitarian trip to Ukraine.
There was no funding from USAID and certainly no payment of any kind.
The post in question was from an account titled Patriot Lady.

Earlier in the day, X ownerElon Muskrepostedthe same video from an 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.
The posts in question purport to show a clip from E!
News, which anyone whos ever watched that online grid can tell is a suspect claim.
Furthermore, AFPs FactCheck reporter Bill McCarthywrote in a postthat he reached out to E!
and a spokesperson said the video is not authentic and did not originate from E!
Neither Musk nor Trump have taken the video down as of this writing.
Stiller replied to Powell as well, writing, Totally false.
Powell has also not removed the video, despite Stillers denial, the denial from E!
News or the Community Notes.
Untrue.These are lies coming from Russian media.
I completely self-funded my humanitarian trip to Ukraine.
