Howie Carr: Your taxes prop up GBH, NPR, PBS agitprop

-


Mr. President, all of us perceive that you just and the remainder of your administration are very busy, what with stripping racist Harvard of $2.3 billion in handouts and deporting 1000’s of bloodthirsty illegal-alien gangbangers and Muslim Jew-haters from Ivy League colleges.

People are all in on restoring sanity to the society, throughout the board. However can I ask you for only one small favor, in case you guys may multi-task only one small reform that we’ve all been ready for.

Defund Nationwide Panhandler Radio and all the remainder of “public” broadcasting.

We’ve been ready now for 10 weeks and people limp-wristed fops are nonetheless getting thousands and thousands or billions or no matter they declare they’re pocketing from individuals who work for a dwelling.

Often the PBS comrades declare it’s just one or 5 p.c of their budgets. However then when some Republican pol says they’re on the chopping block, they put the gun to the pinnacle of Elmo.

You know the way Mayor Michelle Wu makes use of her toddler daughter as a defend at any time when one thing scandalous occurs at Metropolis Corridor?

The limousine liberals use Elmo the identical means – as a hostage.

“Don’t shoot me or Elmo will get it!”

Guess what – no person watches PBS anymore. Similar to no person listens to NPR. It’s simply one other gold-plated authorities welfare program for shiftless, unemployable twits, just like the DEI packages in each public company.

The Home’s DOGE listening to about “public broadcasting” was nearly a month in the past now. Regardless of the “darkish” tone, because the New York Instances known as it, there was no discuss stripping the First Modification rights of any of those chinless toffs with their plummy accents.

The one query is, why the hell ought to regular People need to pay for this noxious far-left agitprop?

In her closing assertion on the listening to, GA Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene summed it up completely:

“Right here’s the way it works in America each single day. Non-public companies function on their very own with out authorities funding. We consider that you just all can hate us by yourself dime.”

Precisely. I don’t learn left-wing rags, particularly if I’ve to pay to subscribe to them. It will solely encourage them. It’s the identical purpose I lower the wire on my cable TV. If you wish to pay Rachel Maddow and Al Sharpton and Jake Tapper thousands and thousands of {dollars} for his or her abhorrent nonsense, be my visitor.

However not on my dime.

Do you understand that Jim Braude, a failed celebration apparatchik who will likely be 76 years outdated subsequent month, remains to be pocketing $344,850 a 12 months from WGBH, er GBH? He used to make $464,031 a 12 months, however then his TV present that no person watched went off the air and he needed to, uh, tighten his belt.

Shouldn’t Comrade Braude be retired by now in some luxurious lakefront dacha someplace, perhaps close to Commissar Bernie Sanders’, railing about running-dog capitalist roaders and the way Leon Trotsky received what was coming to him.

The top of NPR is at the moment a rabid trust-funded Karen by the title of Katherine Maher. She’s on file as calling President Trump “a deranged racist sociopath.” (Now she tells Congress she “regrets” her assertion.)

She as soon as slammed Hillary Clinton for utilizing the phrases “boy and lady,” saying it was “erasing language for non-binary individuals,” no matter a non-binary particular person is.

She as soon as mentioned that the First Modification was “the primary problem” for suppressing “dangerous data.”

Along with despising the Invoice of Rights, this tax-fattened sow doesn’t very like “white male Westernized constructs,” no matter these may be.

When President Trump was thrown off social media, she was ecstatic, saying, “Have to be satisfying to deplatform fascists. Much more satisfying? Not platforming them within the first place.”

That’s NPR on steroids. In the event that they don’t like what you say, you’re a “fascist.” However in case you object to giving them cash to name you a racist, or a fascist, or a sociopath.

Republicans are described 162 instances as “far proper.” Democrats are described as “far left” six instances.

When Hunter Biden’s laptop computer was uncovered in 2020, NPR refused to cowl it, calling it “a waste of time, a distraction.”

Not solely did NPR ignore one of many largest Democrat scandals in historical past, they mentioned that nobody ought to even point out it, as a result of “Consultants say assault on Hunter Biden deepens stigma for thousands and thousands.”

In different phrases, Hunter Biden was a sufferer. Not an entitled crackhead bagman, however a sufferer.

Yesterday was tax day. I feel you and I are the true victims right here, that we’ve to choose up the tab for this poisonous political rhetoric.

Once more, if George Soros desires to assist this form of Stalinist excrement, the way in which his billions assist the wretched native sports activities speak station in Boston, that’s his name. However taxpayers shouldn’t have to choose up the tab.

Regime-controlled media defends Nationwide Panhandler Radio the way in which they at all times defend waste, fraud and abuse – by mendacity about it.

After the Congressional listening to, the Washington Put up wrote a slobbering puff piece concerning the “monumental worth” of NPR’s left-wing propaganda, dismissing criticisms of “its allegedly liberal bent.”

Allegedly liberal!

A current story on NPR bemoaned how a Chicago hospital “bows to federal stress on trans look after teenagers.”

One teenager, described by NPR with male pronouns, was described as having “already frozen his eggs in case he desires to have his personal organic kids sooner or later.”

A boy with eggs? These are your tax {dollars} at work.

In the identical story, one other “16-year-old boy” was bereft when his scheduled double mastectomy was canceled. Rattling that Trump!

“He has been binding his chest for greater than 5 years, however doing that causes rib and again ache.”

That is madness. When you’re a “he,” you don’t have eggs. And also you don’t want a double mastectomy both. Proper NPR?

“The reality is that organic intercourse, like numerous scientific classes, is nuanced.”

However as Marjorie Taylor Greene would say, nuance by yourself rattling dime. Don’t neglect that Boston has two of those crackpot radio stations – two!

Once more, if the market will assist them, who cares. In any case, no person ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of Massachusetts Democrats.

Please, Mr. President, I do know you have got larger fish to fry, beginning with Harvard, the state of Maine and all these “Maryland dads” from MS-13 on welfare.

However don’t neglect NPR and PBS. It’s actually not that nuanced. Simply lower ‘em off, 100%. It’s time Elmo began supporting himself. Jim Braude too, for that matter.

NPR, PBS cuts to go earlier than Congress
