There are a thousand things LIKE NPR also that need to have the PLUG PULLED..New York City will be again knocking at the door of Congress asking for money to pay their bills. Giving people $100 for taking multiple vaccines is one example of DRUNKEN spending.

National Propaganda Radio (NPR) is needed to determine who the Communists and other lunatics are that listen to them.

NPR in DC spreads racial divisiveness.

“About time” again?

Congress will give them a raise to make up for inflation.

This is one of those no-brainer things to do when Republicans run all congress/president. But nope, it’s happened twice since 2000 that I remember, and they never bothered.

I was gonna say....waaaay past due. They’ve had 40+ years to brainwash and pilfer $$ from Americans stupid enough to pay $400.00 for the complete movie collection of Doris Day.

When republican congresses with republican presidents couldn’t make the easy decisions like zeroing out NPR funding, are we really supposed to believe the pubbies will make the tough decisions when they’re next in charge?

Every few days at FR I’m reminded why, after decades in the GOP, I reregistered Independent shortly after the GOP gave Brandon the White House.

To defund NPR, Republicans will have to fight back with ads countering appeals to save “Big Bird”. Big Bird has a hidden secret life.

They are saying now that the NPR report was false.

But what they are saying, that is, that the NPR report is false, is probably the thing that is false, whereas the NPR report is probably factual and true.

The use of taxpayer funds to promote Democrat policies is more than a “bugaboo”. It’s widespread, even in the schools. Republicans don’t fight it now because they quit their fight with NPR decades ago.

Way late to that party. 20 years ago I was a regular listener.

Yep. Absolutely time, Long Past Time.

NPR, aka “Public Radio International” (with smug French Accent)

Make it fair - let conservatives take over NPR for the next 40 years...

Let's see how damn white liberal 'elites' feel about paying for Tucker's show to run in every US radio market - on THEIR dime.
