  1. Donate now. By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1. Purpose. National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) receive taxpayer funds through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB). Unlike in 1967, when the CPB was established, today the media landscape is filled with abundant, diverse, and innovative news options. Government funding of news media in this environment is not only outdated and unnecessary but corrosive to the appearance of journalistic independence. At the very least, Americans have the right to expect that if their tax dollars fund public broadcasting at all, they fund only fair, accurate, unbiased, and nonpartisan news coverage. No media outlet has a constitutional right to taxpayer subsidies, and the Government is entitled to determine which categories of activities to subsidize. The CPB's governing statute reflects principles of impartiality: the CPB may not "contribute to or otherwise support any political party." 47 U.S.C. 396(f)(3); see also id. 396(e)(2). The CPB fails to abide by these principles to the extent it subsidizes NPR and PBS. Which viewpoints NPR and PBS promote does not matter. What does matter is that neither entity presents a fair, accurate, or unbiased portrayal of current events to taxpaying citizens. I therefore instruct the CPB Board of Directors (CPB Board) and all executive departments and agencies (agencies) to cease Federal funding for NPR and PBS. Sec. 2. Instructions to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. (a) The CPB Board shall cease direct funding to NPR and PBS, consistent with my Administration's policy to ensure that Federal funding does not support biased and partisan news coverage. The CPB Board shall cancel existing direct funding to the maximum extent allowed by law and shall decline to provide future funding. (b) The CPB Board shall cease indirect funding to NPR and PBS, including by ensuring that licensees and permittees of public radio and television stations, as well as any other recipients of CPB funds, do not use Federal funds for NPR and PBS. To effectuate this directive, the CPB Board shall, before June 30, 2025, revise the 2025 Television Community Service Grants General Provisions and Eligibility Criteria and the 2025 Radio Community Service Grants General Provisions and Eligibility Criteria to prohibit direct or indirect funding of NPR and PBS. To the extent permitted by the 2024 Television Community Service Grants General Provisions and Eligibility Criteria, the 2024 Radio Community Service Grants General Provisions and Eligibility Criteria, and applicable law, the CPB Board shall also prohibit parties subject to these provisions from funding NPR or PBS after the date of this order. In addition, the CPB Board shall take all other necessary steps to minimize or eliminate its indirect funding of NPR and PBS. {snip} DONALD J.

  2. So why did they choose that date ? (Hint: Armistice Day) Veterans Day 1954 You never seem to catch on that he does things to rile you up.
  3. Does she kiss her brother with that mouth ?
  4. Democrat Sen. Tim Kaine is now saying that if Garcia isn't brought back to the U.S., America's "slide toward tyranny" will accelerate. Yep, keep it up, Dems -- this is a real good look! I’m no political expert, but it seems investing your dwindling political capital in repatriating an illegal alien gangbanger is not the surefire path to political redemption Democrats are envisioning https://twitchy.com/dougp/2025/05/01/these-people-are-insane-guess-what-sen-tim-kaine-thinks-would-stop-the-slide-toward-tyranny-n2412229
  5. Hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahaha. Roundy leaps before he looks again.
  6. Uhhh, Who Wants to Tell Her? Jasmine Crockett Asks 'Imagine If Other Countries Sent People Here' We used to have an expression here at Twitchy. 'There's stupid, and then there's AOC stupid.' No offense to Sandy Cortez, who is still lucky if she can find two brain cells to rub together, but we think we might have to amend that expression slightly. 'There's stupid, there's AOC stupid, and then there's Jasmine Crockett stupid.' No matter how low we set the bar for 'Jazzy from the Block,' she always manages to underperform our expectations. She also likes to make it worse by putting on her fake 'ghetto accent' affectation (which isn't fooling anyone about who she really is). Most recently, trying to sound smart about illegal immigration and deportations, Crockett managed to ask quite simply the dumbest rhetorical question we have ever heard. And we've heard Mazie Hirono speak. Watch: https://twitchy.com/grateful-calvin/2025/05/01/who-wants-to-tell-her-jasmine-crockett-asks-imagine-if-other-countries-sent-their-people-here-n2412209
  7. As Democrats continue to defend illegal immigrants, it's helpful to remind everyone exactly who -- and what -- the Democrats are defending. In Texas, Andres Fernandez De La Paz was arrested after allegedly shooting Ediesky Incencio Pineiro at his home in Houston. Pineiro, 34, died of his injuries. The shooting was captured on security cameras. This video might be disturbing for some viewers, so discretion is advised. https://twitchy.com/amy-curtis/2025/05/01/illegal-immigrant-murdered-tx-dad-on-video-n2412207
  8. I mean, you could try NOT being on the taxpayer dole as a job
  9. And the fact that it followed four years of Biden/Harris misadministration.
  10. You could have stopped after your first three words. Meanwhile: A few days ago, the Left was melting down because a two-year-old was 'deported' along with her mother. That wasn't true; mom was deported and opted to take the child with her. The Left said this was done 'with no meaningful process' because that's the narrative. Here are two headlines that prove that, no matter what the Trump administration does, they just can't win with the media: So the solution here, as 'War Games' taught us, is not to play the game. This is what 100% negative media coverage looks like. This right here. Don't forget it. REMINDER: https://twitchy.com/amy-curtis/2025/05/01/timcast-two-headlines-on-deportation-and-kids-n2412216
  11. The post was about the arrival of the freight train, Which the video provided. The squirrel that you posted about the OP doesn't matter in the slightest, other than to those who strongly need to downplay the recent recovery efforts. .
  12. Oh those crazy judges. Judge Releases Suspected Tesla Firebomber Citing Lack of Access to ‘Gender-Affirming Care’ Owen McIntire, a 19-year-old student (they're always college students) from Missouri, was arrested for allegedly firebombing a Tesla dealership in Kansas City on March 17. President Trump said that these attacks would be considered domestic terrorism, and McIntire faces 20 years behind bars. He's not behind bars now, though, because a judge has ruled that McIntire has medical conditions such as gender dysphoria, and he wouldn't be able to continue his "gender-affirming care" in prison. https://twitchy.com/brettt/2025/05/01/judge-releases-suspected-tesla-firebomber-citing-lack-of-access-to-gender-affirming-care-n2412231
  13. Nope. That would be the Democrat party.
  14. Here it comes Pay for it yourself, Denver. Trump Admin Rescinds $24M in federal taxpayer dollars to house illegal immigrants. DENVER — The Trump administration has rescinded $24 million in federal grants promised to the City of Denver, following through on a threat to withhold funding over the city's sheltering of newly arrived immigrants. https://www.denver7.com/follow-up/trump-administration-rescinds-24m-in-federal-grants-for-denvers-migrant-shelters
  15. Of course, the real question is: Who coordinated with them and the drone operator for the photo-op? Nah, this is totally organic...
  16. CNN, once a proud network that redefined the news industry, has become a joke over the past decade (or more) and is now just a parade of extremist journalists peddling their woke values.
