    Did you not read the part where I said that only 1% of their funding comes from the federal government?

    Also republicans won all 3 branches back in 2016 and threatened the same bullshit, but never followed through. I assume you read the clickbait news headline about marjory greene being quoted railing on NPR from a day or two ago? I wouldn’t put too much stock into that.

      Oh they’re not cutting the funding. They are undoing the act of congress that first established NPR.

      Also the 2nd term is not like the first term. You see how his cabinet picks got crazier? I mean, a pedophile for AG and a science denier for FDA?

      This isn’t like the first term, the guardrails are off.

        Idk what to say. I’m also scared. But saying they’re losing funding January 20th isn’t true. As of now they aren’t. And I don’t think they will. I hope I’m right.
