The chairwoman of a special House panel focused on slashing government spending is making it clear that enough is enough. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia is ready to put her foot down against tax exemptions for nonprofits that harm America and make a strong case to defund left-leaning media outlets like National Public Radio (NPR) and PBS. According to Greene, these organizations can spout their liberal agendas without dipping into the pockets of hardworking Americans.
During a recent interview, Greene highlighted a notable House Subcommittee hearing where executives from NPR and PBS faced scrutiny for their blatant political bias. Evidence gathered included some eyebrow-raising social media posts from NPR’s CEO, who had previously labeled Donald Trump as a deranged racist, a comment she later expressed regret over. Greene pointed out the absurdity of PBS featuring a drag queen storytime segment designed for children aged 3 to 8, while also criticizing a segment that falsely suggested Elon Musk’s hand gesture was reminiscent of a fascist salute. If any of these incidents don’t scream leftist propaganda, it’s unclear what does.
Greene also brought attention to the deafening silence surrounding a Democrat congresswoman’s disparaging remarks toward Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who uses a wheelchair. It seems NPR and PBS were too occupied promoting their political agendas to cover an actual newsworthy story that cast a light on the shameful attacks on a fellow politician. Greene’s frustration with the pervasive bias at these outlets is palpable—she claims they serve up a staggering 90% left-leaning news diet to the American people, all funded by taxpayer dollars.

The financial details are just as troubling. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting received over half a billion dollars of taxpayer money for fiscal year 2025. Despite NPR’s claim that only 1% of their funding comes from the government, the reality is they still benefit from significant government-backed syndication fees. Greene’s argument centers on the notion that if taxpayers are footing the bill, they shouldn’t have to see their money used to propagate a progressive agenda.
But Greene is not stopping at just media; she’s also raising concerns about nonprofit organizations that have been linked to violent protests, including assaults on Tesla vehicles. She draws a parallel to the chaos that followed the BLM movement, a comparison that resonates deeply with many conservatives who witnessed urban mayhem disguised as social justice. Greene’s proposal that nonprofits should not receive tax exemptions if they engage in harmful activities is a refreshing challenge to a long-ignored reality. After all, why should any organization get a free ride while pushing dangerous ideologies and attacks against American businesses?
In a time when it feels like tax dollars are being weaponized against traditional values, Greene’s determination to realign government funding with responsible, patriotic initiatives adds a refreshing note to the national conversation. As she gears up to push for change, she positions herself as a champion for American taxpayers who are fed up with the left’s persistent grip on the narratives dominating public funding.
