Millions of Americans tune into public TV & radio for factual reporting that isn’t driven by corporate interests or bottom lines. 

But because Trump hates truthful reporting, he and Republicans in Congress gutted the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. A big loss for the American people.

The CPB announced on Friday that it will wind down its operations due to the successful Republican effort to defund local PBS and NPR stations across the country.

    They love finding new ways to hurt those they hate. Or envy. For sure, resent. It's a really bad sort of sickness. And they won't realize until it's maybe too late just how much they're hurting themselves. And their children. Shameful.

    I’m a big fan of yours. I am a life long Democrat but you all have to work on your messaging. If you are pointing out a Trump has created, it has to be followed by how the Democrats will fix it during the midterms. Never state a problem that doesn’t have a solution!

    This is gone, Medicaid/Medicare/SS will be gone soon. SNAP benefits gone, Meals on Wheels gone, NOAA & FEMA gone. We're paying for the military & the damn concentration camps/prisons/ICE agents. So why are we still paying the salaries of the House/Senate members when all have abdicated their duties?

    Dismantling fact based news and information sources.
    Just how Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Mao, Marcos, Hussein, Castro and Putin started. In case you hadn’t noticed, all these people are/were tyrannical dictators.
