BOOM! Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green SHREDS NPR and PBS CEOs Over Previous Statements Calling President Trump a “Deranged Racist Sociopath” and Promoting Censorship (VIDEO)
House Oversight DOGE Subcommittee Chairwoman Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) eviscerated the CEO of National Public Radio (NPR) on Wednesday during a hearing and signaled potential prison time for possible violations of the Communications Act.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Greene’s subcommittee is holding a hearing this morning with testimony by the NPR and Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) CEOs as the Committee seeks to potentially defund the far-left state propaganda stations.
Greene called out the far-left former Wikipedia CEO and current NPR CEO, Katherine Maher, for previous unhinged statements where she called President Trump a "deranged racist sociopath" and accused Americans of being "addicted to White supremacy" while defending far-left fact checkers.
"I remind you you're under oath, and violations of the Communications Act come with a fine up to $10,000, possibly up to a year in prison," Greene also said to PBS CEO Paula Kerger as she inquired into both organizations' potential airing of commercials for for-profit entities.
Greene further called Kerger out for using taxpayer dollars to fund radical left documentaries about transgender teens, transitioning, and one film titled "Racist Trees."
WATCH:
Greene: Ms. Maher, your public statements and social media posts reflect left-wing ideology and blatant opposition to free speech. After all, you were the head of Wikipedia for many years, which is a platform that doesn't tell the truth. Let's walk through some of the public— some of your statements, so the public can understand your personal views. Your fellow Americans— you said, your fellow Americans just selected Donald Trump as president again this past November. You called him a “deranged racist” and “sociopath.” You posted on X that America is addicted to white supremacy. That’s appalling. You've publicly chastised using the phrase boy and girl, which you said erases the language for non-binary people. There's only two genders, by the way.
Ms. Maher the federal funding that your outlet received comes from all American taxpayer dollars, not just from your viewers who support such statements as these. Let me inform you and that your federal funding is also paid for by the other half of the country, the 77 million Americans who voted for President Trump, someone you called a “deranged racist sociopath.” Ms. Maher, many find your pro-censorship and anti-free speech views more concerning than your politics. The only speech you like seems to be speech that you agree with. In 2021, you called the First Amendment the number one challenge in American journalism because it makes it hard to crack down on bad information. You said in a TED Talk that our reverence for the truth might be a distraction. You've also expressed support for deplatforming individuals you view as fascist. Who do you think should be charged with cracking down on so-called bad information? Is it NPR? Is it the government? Is it you Ms. Maher?
