...I’d like NPR thrown into the mix as well but I can see the above 3 as being in the “emergency/asap” category.

Well, I should have included NPR -- I've posted about that many times. The NPR is totally unnecessary, a total waste of money, and is egregiously biased. If the GOP cannot defund PBS, then for gosh sakes what can they defund???

I see defunding NPR as a test -- the easiest, most obvious thing to cut in the entire budget. If it sticks around, then there is no hope for budget sanity.
