It’s such a shame that they are going after PBS.
I grew up on Sesame Street and it’s just sad to see the GOP go after something so wholesome under the guise of it being „woke“ or „DEI“.
Fundraising for new concentration camps
Making our nation dumber and destroying all of our soft power. All of this to make the extremely wealthy be more wealthy. We really need to treat that addiction greatly. The addiction of getting more money at the expense of everyone and everything else is far worse than any drug addiction. At least with those addictions it only hurts the person and those in their close vicinity.
Part of that *cut* to public broadcasting is a multi billion dollar claw back of already allocated (and largely spent) money… effectively making it impossible for most PBS and NPR stations to survive, as they will owe more money to federal government than they have in assets or collect in private donations.
Thus allowing the government to force those stations into receivership and sell off their assets.
Cutting billions to pocket it for themselves. Maga will be fine with this. But would they be okay if their boss cut off their benefits just to buy a bigger house? Probably not. But they are okay with politicians doing it
The next 100 dead in Texas won’t even know a storm is coming. Somehow this will be Biden’s fault.
When was the last time they made $50,000 a year?
What Would Mr Rogers Do?
Are they using reconciliation for this? How can they avoid a filibuster by Democrats?
PBS/NPR will pay for the „donald grump“ parody first amendmend be damned.
shutting down news agencies that report the facts is what dictators do. After this budget claw back the FCC is going after the broadcast licenses.
