Trump signs executive order to cut funding for public broadcasters
This funding is approved by Congress, so this will lose in court like everything else, but let's see how this shakes out...

My local NPR station has already sent an email out to all it's underwriters and sponsors about this threat.
I would say that every public radio station has little faith in Congress at this point. Having worked myself in public radio for several years, I would say that their concern is completely justified.

Take any one of Trump's actions alone 20 years ago and he would have been impeached, now its just Friday.

Fuckin boyscout badge
it's almost like Trump has no idea what he's doing
This is project 2025 to the T. They know exactly what they're doing, and have poured lots of money into this plan.
No. Just ignore him
Hmm, I wonder if there are any historical examples we can turn to to examine the outcomes when a government dismantles publicly funded and managed media...
Elmo knows where you live
Bert will send his army of pigeons
Daniel Tiger gon' use his claws if he has to
Elmo has a particular set of skills
Elmo will cut a bitch.
