‘Biden’s Secretary of State Exploits Halloween for Political Agenda’
Next Level Propaganda: Biden’s Secretary of State Uses Halloween to Push Political Agenda
Everyone knows a surefire way to get something is to get a cute little kid to ask for it.
In a weirdly symbolic gesture, Secretary of State Antony Blinken dressed his 4-year-old son as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for the White House Halloween event, to ask for “candy” from President Joe Biden on the White House lawn Monday night, according to the New York Post.
The poor kid would probably have preferred to be Spiderman or The Flash but hey, we’ve got to push daddy’s boss’ agenda.

Blinken and his wife, Biden’s White House cabinet secretary Evan Ryan, dressed their 4-year-old son in a khaki-beige sweatsuit to represent the Ukrainian uniform Zelenskyy is often seen wearing. A Ukrainian flag pin prominently displayed on the front of the shirt ensured that the child was not accidentally mistaken for John Fetterman.
Earlier in October, Politico reported that the White House is losing the messaging war on Ukraine, with many Republicans now opposing additional funding to the European nation.
In response, Biden has shifted the focus from “helping Ukraine” to promising an “economic boom” from the jobs created by the need for new ammunition after we deplete our own resources to fund Ukraine.
X users had a little fun with this new form of subliminal messaging.
“Levels of cringe we haven’t seen in a while,” one user wrote.

According to the New York Post, around $113 billion in both military and humanitarian aid has already been approved for Ukraine and over $70 billion for security assistance.
In October, Biden asked Congress for another $106 billion in supplemental funding, 61.4 billion of which would go to Ukraine, according to Reuters, while only 13.6 billion would go toward our own overrun border.
Newly elected House Speaker Mike Johnson has said this week that he plans to move on a bill focused on providing support solely to Israel, separate from Ukraine, which most Democrats and some Republicans are opposed to, according to Newsweek.
During a speech in Helsinki, Finland in June, Blinken outlined the plans the US has to help Ukraine “reimagine” a rebuilt economy, saying, “We are committed to working with allies and partners to help Ukrainians make their vision a reality.”
“We’ll not only help Ukraine rebuild its economy, but reimagine it, with new industries, trade routes, supply chains connected with Europe and with markets around the world,” he continued.
“We’ll continue to bolster Ukraine’s independent anti-corruption bodies, a free and vibrant press, civil society organizations. We’ll help Ukraine overhaul its energy grid — more than half of which has been destroyed by Russia — and do it in a way that’s cleaner, more resilient, and more integrated with its neighbors, so that Ukraine can one day become an energy exporter,” Blinken said.
Blinken’s commitment is evident from the choice of his son’s Halloween costume.

In what ways does the choice to dress Blinken’s son as Zelenskyy for Halloween align with recent criticisms of the Biden administration’s messaging on Ukraine
Next Level Propaganda: Biden’s Secretary of State Uses Halloween to Push Political Agenda
In a bizarre display of symbolism, Secretary of State Antony Blinken dressed his 4-year-old son as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for the White House Halloween event. The child was then instructed to ask President Joe Biden for “candy” on the White House lawn. This peculiar use of Halloween costumes to advance a political agenda raises concerns about the level of propaganda being employed by the Biden administration.
The fact that Blinken’s son was dressed as Zelenskyy, rather than a more traditional Halloween character like Spiderman or The Flash, suggests that this decision was made to serve Blinken’s boss’ agenda. It is disheartening to see children being used as pawns to further political messaging, especially in such a blatant and overt manner.
Blinken and his wife, Evan Ryan, who serves as Biden’s White House cabinet secretary, dressed their son in a khaki-beige sweatsuit to imitate the Ukrainian uniform often worn by Zelenskyy. The inclusion of a Ukrainian flag pin on the child’s shirt further emphasized the political nature of this costume choice. It is worth noting that this decision was likely made to avoid any confusion with John Fetterman, a senator whose ongoing feud with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has been widely publicized.
This Halloween stunt comes at a time when the White House is facing criticism for its messaging on Ukraine. Politico recently reported that the Biden administration is struggling to convey its intentions regarding aid to Ukraine, with many Republicans opposing further funding for the European nation. In response, Biden has shifted the focus from “helping Ukraine” to promising an “economic boom” through the creation of jobs related to the need for new ammunition.
While some individuals found humor in this new form of subliminal messaging, others expressed their dismay. One social media user commented that this display was “levels of cringe we haven’t seen in a while.” Another questioned the inconsistency of allowing children to choose their gender but not their own costumes. Still, others recognized the effort put into this propaganda, stating, “Next level propaganda. Kind of have to respect the commitment to it.”
The exploitation of innocent children for political gain is a troubling development. Halloween should be a time for lighthearted fun and creativity, not a platform for advancing political agendas. The use of a child dressed as a foreign leader to request candy from the President is a clear example of the lengths to which the Biden administration is willing to go to solidify its messaging. As citizens, we must remain vigilant and question the motives behind such blatant propaganda tactics.
