Trump's cancellation of $900 million in aid and public broadcasting funds draws attention

Trump canceled $9 billion in foreign aid and public broadcasting funds with just one signature.

All one can say is that public broadcasting's days are not going well.

A new bill has just cut funding for NPR, PBS, and over 1,500 local radio stations. Some of these stations may never broadcast again.

Foreign aid also suffered a major blow, and critics warn that it will have global consequences.

The White House said the move was to reduce waste. Trump said the move was complete.
