The Trump administration has drafted a memo to Congress outlining its intent to end nearly all federal funding for public media, which includes NPR and PBS, according to a White House official who spoke to NPR.
The memo, which the administration plans to send to Congress when it reconvenes from recess on April 28, will open a 45-day window in which the House and Senate can either approve the rescission or allow the money to be restored.
The official, who spoke to NPR on condition of anonymity, confirmed the existence of the draft.
Exactly. Dementia donnie didn’t build any of this. He just waltzed in and slapped his name on the place. The qons have been furiously working a certain kind of person into a froth over things like PBS and NPR for decades.
