“The White House has sent more than a billion dollars to Ukraine in just the past week, and today as we told you, the Secretary of the Treasury announced that there’ll be half a billion to pay the salaries of the Ukrainian government workers,” Carlson said, during a segment of his show on Thursday.
The host was likely referring to the Biden administration’s recently announced aid packages for Ukraine — unveiled on Thursday and April 14 — and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen’s pledge of $500 million to fund the country’s administration.
“Shouldn’t we have an audit of Zelenskyy’s finances first?” Carlson suggested.
“Ooh, shut up, that’s Russian disinformation!” he added, making a quip about those who have criticized his stances on the Ukraine conflict.
Carlson has been known to echo Russian President Vladimir Putin’s talking points on his show. A leaked Kremlin war memo that was reported on in March noted that the Kremlin viewed Carlson as a prime subject to be featured on Russian state media.
Meanwhile, Russian state media have aired clips of Carlson and Rep. Madison Cawthorn as part of its anti-Ukraine propaganda. Cawthorn said in March that he thought the Ukrainian government was “very vile” and “well known for corruption.”
