Michelle Lujan Grisham Sobs Over PBS Cuts

Boo-hoo!

New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham is sobbing over the budget cut of Public Broadcasting by the Trump Administration.

According to her X post, she says that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is closing. It appears that they were not viable enough to continue without money from the public tit. The government had no business of paying for television and radio stations in the first place. 

Why should the taxpayers subsidize stations who broadcast leftist propaganda? 

Check out the comments to her post.

Today marks a sad day for America and for New Mexico families who depend on public broadcasting for critical information and emergency services.

The following was posted on Facebook in a comment in The Adventures Continue page (the Adventures of Superman):

' Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass oversaw a city budget adjustment which slashed over $17 million from the city's fire department months before Tuesday’s devastating wildfires, information shared by a city official shows.

Thousands fled the Los Angeles area Tuesday as wildfires swept across the area. The fast-approaching flames shut down multiple major roadways, forcing some people to abandon their vehicles.

Los Angeles City Controller Kennith Mejia in October shared to X adjustments made to the city’s fiscal year 2024-2025 budget. Mayor Bass signed the budget in June, according to a press release.

City fire services decreased by $17.6 million through those adjustments, the X post shows. Other impacted services included “street services,” which decreased by $21.4 million, and sanitation, which decreased by $15.1 million.

Among budget items which received extra cash was “zoo,” which increased by $27,000, the information shows. Also receiving increases were “library,” which jumped $14.6 million, and “cannabis regulation,” which increased by $1.8 million.

“As the City of LA goes broke, one of the many questions we get is: ‘WHERE ARE OUR TAX DOLLARS GOING?’” Mejia wrote at the time.

“The City just started a new fiscal year & if you want to know how the Mayor & a majority of City Council increased or decreased departments' operational budget, see below,” Mejia added.'

I can't vouch for its accuracy, but it wouldn't surprise me given that the Democrat Party controls the Los Angeles city government.
