An odd claim, since NPR getting defunded is itself a retaliation from the current administration for not reporting positively enough about Trump.

Oh yeah I'm predicting a claim will be made I disagree with. But I can imagine the mental gymnastics, post a prediction and watch for the outcome.

Usually there's a shakedown, did Trump ever make NPR an offer they "couldn't" refuse?

  • Similar to the one he made to Harvard? Do they even have to make such a thing explicitly these days? I would just assume they won't fund anything that's critical to the current government.
