🚨 BREAKING: @POTUS just signed an executive order ENDING the taxpayer subsidization of NPR and PBS — which receive millions from taxpayers to spread radical, woke propaganda disguised as “news.”

The above is the text of the order.

I smell another junior skanky judge heading this way to throw a bucket of her pee on this.

Bingo! You know these judges are talking about how to hamstring Trump.

Detroit’s NPR, WDET 101.9 FM, has been a favorite of mine since the early-to-mid 80’s. Compared to just about all of the ordinary FM rock and roll stations we have around here nowadays, WDET has been a kind of musical sanctuary for listeners to fall back on and perhaps (re)discover some great material we either forgot about or stuff we never even knew existed. For that alone, if it went off the air tomorrow I’d really miss it...And whatever happened to “Dr. Science”? He was always good for a laugh.

How long before a judge overrules that.

And some unelected judge will issue an injunction against this in 3, 2, 1…

Good, but just abolish the entire anachronistic Corporation for Public Broadcasting. It’s kept alive just so “underserved” East Podunk and Upper Pig Waller have local reporters. Do we really need that?

Is Trump even complying with these judges? I see the rulings, but then no actual reporting if Trump is ending what the judges are trying to stop lol.

So HHS gets to determine if employment laws have been broken... and if so, perhaps pulling broadcast licenses would be a corrective action?

Well, I’m convinced! My tax dollars in Idaho are certainly needed so you can continue to listen to rock and roll on WDET in Detroit.

Have you explored the hundreds of millions of songs on Spotify and its ability to create playlist for your tastes? Or listen to playlists by other users with your tastes? Or have Spotify enhance the playlists you creat with other material it thinks you will like?

There are plenty of bleeding heart billionaires that can pick up the tab.

Yes, that is conspicuously absent. Trump declares “X”. Judge Buttinski says “No.” And we don’t hear anything further on the Great Constitutional Crisis.

Yes, or they can support themselves with advertising like every other radio station does.

I wonder if said judge would come to the rescue if funding was pulled from a conservative entity….probably not.
