Once again I'm obligated to note that #PeopleWillDie, & that #IlDouche & his #MAGAteers won't care even though GOP states will be the worst affected. Add to that we also need to note that #FEMA has also been gutted and left to die in the field so the aftermath of these disasters will be even worse.

The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I reread it today; nothing in the law allows a president to defund PBS and NPR. In fact, Congress specifically sought to insulate public media from political pressure.
