Here are the stories...

Trump is reversing Obama's decision to allow students to use the bathroom that they personally identify with in their minds.

Interview with a woman in Wisconsin who now regrets voting for Trump. She is afraid that Trump will take away her social security, she is very afraid of what may come next, and may vote Democrat next time.

Trump ignoring a rise in anti Semitic crimes and activity and the Netanyahu administration also ignoring it because of close ties to Trump. Noble Israeli politicians are trying to shed light. The bogeyman Steve Bannon is mentioned.

Long interview with ex CIA analyst who quit because he cannot in good conscience work for Trump. Admits that he opposes Trump on almost every political issue but claims that in no way affected his decision. Starts off with eloquent memory of him as a young freshman watching black smoke rising from the Towers on 9/11 and knowing that he had to defend his country from extremists.

The US will no longer be able to bring down corruption in the world, such as the toppling of FIFA president Sepp Blatter, because Trump is now president. Soccer purists and other world anti corruption people are despondent.

Impressive run for just 30 minutes.

Paid for with your tax dollars folks.

Where? I tried listening in BR this morning but they were just begging for money so I suffered through T-Bob.

He was an employee of the Dem party. He worked to push through the Iran nuke deal. He contributed 5K to the Hillary campaign.

Would you like it if Fox News were taxpayer funded?

What a pitiful deflection. NPR is blatantly liberal in their bias. For you to even make a haphazard attempt to defend their agenda is amusing and disgraceful.

A tax subsidized network should not be an arm of a political party.

How does that equate to what NPR played in the last 30 minutes. How do you know that they didn't have a run of pro Trump stuff on. 30 minutes is a small sample size to compare to Fox News wouldn't you agree?

I listen to NPR every morning during my 1 hour commute.
They have NEVER said anything favorable about Trump.

Woe is me. Doesn't the Trump administration plan to cut funding to NPR and PBS? What do you think they would do to drum up support?

Someone doesn't listen to NPR and hasn't for the past 8 years or so.

Be honest did they ever say anything favorable about Obama? What favorable things should they be talking about in regards to Trump?

Agreed...but to imply that NPR is anything other than a liberal mouthpiece is being disingenuous.

It'd be like season ticket holders paying for WWL....and then WWL openly rooting against the Saints.

That's NPR.
