美国海关与边境保护局动用纳税人资金，资助了支持特朗普的电视广告。就在11月中期选举前几周，这些广告已引发两党审视。《华尔街日报》周二报道称。
Taxpayer money from U.S. Customs and Border Protection funded the pro-Trump television ads that have drawn bipartisan scrutiny just weeks before November's midterm election The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday. President Donald Trump personally pushed for the ads and was involved in creating them, the Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter. The revelation puts a CBP, part of the Department of Homeland Security, behind a campaign that looks far different from its traditional public messaging.
《华尔街日报》援引知情人士的话报道称，特朗普本人推动投放这些广告，并参与了广告的制作。
CBP routinely runs ads discouraging illegal immigration.
这一曝光表明，隶属于国土安全部的美国海关与边境保护局，正在为一场与其传统公共宣传截然不同的宣传攻势提供支持。该局经常投放劝阻非法移民的广告，但这些广告却反复突出特朗普，宣传他的减税政策、攻击共产主义，并重新使用他2024年竞选活动中的说辞。
These spots instead feature Trump heavily, tout his tax cuts attack communism and recycle language from his 2024 campaign. One ad declares that "America will never be a communist country" as images of Trump fill the screen.
一则广告宣称，“美国永远不会成为共产主义国家”，屏幕上则布满特朗普的画面。另一则广告重新启用他2024年竞选时的“最后一战”口号，并攻击政治建制派和新闻媒体。
Another revives his "final battle" message from the 2024 race and attacks the political establishment and news media. The ads have already aired thousands of times nationally and locally.
这些广告已在全国各地和地方投放了数千次。CNBC此前根据追踪政治广告支出的AdImpact数据报道称，投放其中两则广告的费用已超过120万美元。
CNBC previously reported that more than $1.2 million had been spent airing two of the spots, according to AdImpact, which tracks political advertising spending. Democrats and at least one Republican senator have questioned whether taxpayer dollars should be used for ads centered so heavily on Trump.
民主党人以及至少一名共和党参议员质疑，是否应动用纳税人的钱投放如此以特朗普为中心的广告。国会中的一些民主党人目前呼吁调查，为边境保护拨付的资金是否被用于宣扬总统的政治信息。
Some Democrats in Congress are now calling for investigations into whether money appropriated for border protection is being used to promote the president's political message. "It appears DHS has dedicated $20 million to this outrageous scheme," Sens.
“看来，国土安全部已为这项骇人听闻的计划拨款2000万美元，”参议员们——华盛顿州的民主党议员帕蒂·默里（Patty Murray）和康涅狄格州的民主党议员克里斯·墨菲（Chris Murphy）周二致信美国国土安全部（DHS），指出该部门动用了通过共和党提出的《One Big Beautiful Bill Act》法案提供给海关与边境保护局（CBP）的资金。
Patty Murray D-Wash., and Chris Murphy D-Conn., wrote in a letter to DHS on Tuesday, saying the department tapped money provided to CBP through Republicans' " One Big Beautiful Bill Act The pressure also spread to federal regulators Tuesday.
这种压力也蔓延到了联邦监管机构。监督组织“Public Citizen”向联邦通信委员会（Federal Communications Commission）和联邦贸易委员会（Federal Trade Commission）提交了投诉，要求广播公司停止播放这些广告；同时，该组织还分别于上周五要求政府问责办公室（Government Accountability Office）和特别检察官办公室（Office of Special Counsel）调查这些广告是否违反了联邦宣传法规以及《Hatch Act》（该法案限制联邦政府雇员参与政治活动）。
Watchdog group Public Citizen filed a complaint with the Federal Communications Commission and Federal Trade Commission urging broadcasters to stop airing the ads, while separately asking the Government Accountability Office and Office of Special Counsel last Friday to investigate alleged violations of federal propaganda restrictions and the Hatch Act, which restricts the involvement of federal government employees in political campaigns. The White House defended the campaign Tuesday, calling the spots public service announcements.
白宫周二为这些广告进行了辩护，称它们属于公共服务性质的宣传内容。
“These public service announcements are about reminding Americans to love their country and understand what makes it worth defending, at home, at our borders, and abroad,” a White House spokesperson told CNBC.
“这些公共服务广告的目的是提醒美国人热爱自己的国家，并让他们了解这个国家为何值得我们去捍卫——无论是在国内、边境还是海外，”白宫发言人告诉CNBC，“这些广告具有教育意义，且充满爱国情怀。我们应该为自己的国家感到自豪。”海关与边境保护局（CBP）尚未对记者的评论请求作出回应。
“The ad is educational and unapologetically patriotic. We should be proud of our country.”CBP did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
