US Senate Passes Aid, Public Broadcasting Cuts in Victory for Trump

[Grokmaster]

Trump did not win in the cuts to PBS. Nobody did. The entire population of America lost...including people on the right and the left.

We will be a more stupid citizenry because of it.

In a few weeks, the spineless Republicans will go on record as saying they regretted their vote...just like so many of them are now pretending they regretted votes on other things.

The only things Trump and his enablers do correctly...are those things aimed at destroying our Republic. That they are good at...perhaps even great at.

Th US taxpayers neither need nor want to pay for leftist propaganda pretending to be unbiased.

 

[Poor Richard Saunders]

You do realize we were paying for PBS with money your grand kids will have to pay back. Totally unethical.

We are paying for Trump's golf trips with money your grand kids will have to pay back. Totally unethical.

Th US taxpayers neither need nor want to pay for leftist propaganda pretending to be unbiased.

Says you...and most of us know you are full of shit.

So....?

 

[Lionfish]

More winning.

 

[FastLane]

More winning.

Trump was wrong.....I'm not tired of winning yet.

 

[FastLane]

We are paying for Trump's golf trips with money your grand kids will have to pay back. Totally unethical.

Every President golfs or lays on the beach or something. It is a high pressure job they all need to decompress. Totally ethical and a drop in the bucket.

• $9 billion in cuts passes by narrowest possible margin

• Democrats, some Republicans, lament ceding control of spending
• Public broadcasting cuts could deprive rural US areas of news

WASHINGTON, July 17 (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate early on Thursday approved President Donald Trump's plan for billions of dollars in cuts to funding for foreign aid and public broadcasting, handing the Republican president another victory as he exerts control over Congress with little opposition.
The Senate voted 51 to 48 in favor of Trump's request to cut $9 billion in spending already approved by Congress.

Most of the cuts are to programs to assist foreign countries suffering from disease, war and natural disasters, but the plan also eliminates all $1.1 billion the Corporation for Public Broadcasting was due to receive over the next two years.
