      Vote with your dollars. Donate. Donate to the National Orgs and donate to your local broadcasters.

      I don’t care if you don’t like 1960’s Doctor Who. Donate for Arthur, and Tiny Desk.

      ETA: Things you watch on Youtube that you didn’t even realize were paid for by The Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

      Why? Let’s hear it from the Whitehouse:

      >* NPR ran a Valentine’s Day feature around “queer animals,” in which it suggested the make-believe clownfish in “Finding Nemo” would’ve been better off as a female, that “banana slugs are hermaphrodites,” and that “some deer are nonbinary.”

      >* NPR has run stories defending looting and suggesting that crime fears are racist

      >* NPR and PBS make significant in-kind contributions to the Democrat party and its political causes.

      >* NPR’s President and CEO admitted that she regards “truth” as a harmful “distraction” from NPR’s objectives.

      >* NPR management asked its editors to avoid the term “biological sex” when discussing transgender issues.

      >* NPR refused to cover the Hunter Biden laptop story

      >* PBS’s coverage of the 2024 Republican National Convention was 72% negative, while its coverage of the 2024 Democratic National Convention was 88% positive.

      There’s so much more on the fact sheet.

      Straight up pandering to their base to justify everything.

      First they came for the illegals and did nothing because I wasn’t an illegal.

      Then they came for the federal worker who couldn’t even write an email saying 5 things they did last week and I did nothing because I am not a federal worker who couldn’t even write an email saying 5 things they did last week.

      Then they came for the activist judges that make up their own rules to override the executive branch and I did nothing because I was not an activist judges that make up their own rules to override the executive branch.

      Then they came for NPR which ignored the truthful scandals about Joe Biden, Hunter Biden and Ashley Biden and covered up that Joe Biden was not actually running the government. And I did nothing besides cheer this story. So much winning.

      Today is a good day.

      Congress allocates funds, and impoundment is illegal… this better get overturned by the courts or our Democracy is done.

      Aren’t executive orders intended to direct cabinet staff priorities? How does allocating funding, a task for congress, get implemented by an order from the executive branch?

      The NPR CEO is something straight out of „1984“.

      Too bad they got so political. I miss PBS/NPR of the 70s and 80s.

      Because a knowledgeable populace is not as easily controlled.

      Fascist goons.

      And right after NPR spent most of 2024 going to bat for Trump and covering him like he was a perfectly normal politician who can be trusted…

      Fuck, this sucks.

      If anyone on this sub doesn’t already donate, please consider doing so. A donation to PBS gets you access to PBS Passport, which is very handy. I have no affiliation to them, I just love their programming. It’s non-partisan, despite what Trump would tell you.

      We already decided in court that the President can’t alter the funding Congress has determined in law. They continue to do it, and continue to not be penalized.

      Public media, unbiased, telling the facts are being blocked because Great Leader doesn’t want the truth told.

      If our elected Representatives won’t represent us, can we just save the money and NOT have a Representative in Congress?? Seems like wasteful spending to be paying a Represenative if you are going to just do whatever the President wants.

      And so it begins the conservative wet dream since the 80’sn defind public coms

      Does congress do anything anymore? Like, at all? All I see is EO’s and nothing from congress, no actual budget resolutions or legislation

    26. Inspectorgadget4250 on

      And the spawning of yet another court case. Have we hit 1000 in the first 100 days?

    27. xUKLADx on

      Of course they would block them god forbid anyone tells the actual truth about the shit show they’re running.
