President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency is looking for fat to trim. As far as I’m concerned, this gravy train – this gravy train with biscuit wheels called the Corporation for Public Broadcasting – is the perfect example of a project the American people no longer need and should not fund.
After providing examples of blatantly biased headlines and slanted content published by National Public Radio (NPR), Kennedy said he wasn’t trying to censor the news outlets, but that it's “immoral” to force taxpayers to fund them.
I’m all for this, if that’s what these outlets want to do. But, I’m not for taking $500 million every single year and giving it to these stations (CPB) to the exclusion of everybody else. That’s immoral...
We are running $36 trillion in debt. This is disgraceful in 2025. It is disgraceful whether it is left-of-center opinion journalism or right-of-center opinion journalism. It is disgraceful to the American people to have to fund this rot. It doesn’t mean the rot doesn’t have a right to exist, but they don’t have a right to taxpayer money.
