It appears President Trump is ready to follow through with pulling funds from public broadcasting. It’s about time. It’s become a cesspool of Leftist dorks.
White House sends Congress plan to ax ‘all’ public broadcasting funds and codify DOGE aid cuts https://t.co/PSIFnWfIeB pic.twitter.com/B44b3GFm8p

WASHINGTON — The White House has begun to notify Congress of its request to eliminate “all” public broadcasting funding and codify foreign aid cuts identified by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, The Post has learned.
Major proposed clawbacks in the so-called “rescissions” plan include $1.1 billion appropriated for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which provides funds to PBS and National Public Radio, and $8.3 billion from USAID.
A memo drafted by White House budget director Russ Vought — and requested by GOP congressional leaders — accuses CPB of a “lengthy history of anti-conservative bias” and cites “waste, fraud, and abuse” at USAID.
Formal transmission of the plan to lawmakers will start a 45-day clock for the Republican-held House and Senate to either adopt or reject the blueprint, which the White House believes will pass — unlike President Trump’s 2018 rescission plan, which failed by one vote in the Senate.
Let’s get this show on the road.
WHITE HOUSE TO PBS & NPR: YOU’RE ON YOUR OWN
The Trump White House wants to cancel all public broadcasting funding — $1.1B for PBS and NPR — calling them biased and pointing to a few trans characters and old tweets.

No American with brains should be.
It’s what we voted for!!

This is exactly what America voted for.
The White House’s move to cut all public broadcasting funds aligns with the push for government efficiency. It’s about time we stop funding what’s been labeled as ‘liberal disinformation machines.

Trump tasked DOGE with saving Americans money. That is exactly what they are doing.

I support that all they do is spread misinformation

It’s propaganda for Democrats at this point. Taxpayers shouldn’t support that trash.
