Even the left-wing Guardian is sympathetic to Trump's position and explains that Trump is far from the only world leader asking questions. Good read.

BTW, did you know our own Congress has threatened to sanction countries invioved in this pipeline?

Gonna be a cold one. Germany could not withstand it, regardless of how many windmills they may have.

NPR act like they're not biased. But they are very very biased.

Try living without that 20% and see how it goes. It would cripple the country.

Theyve tried that in the past. Didn’t work out to well for them. Europe is America’s bitch.

Yes, but The Republican Party is more than happy to increase the funding for public radio and public television.

Logic would dictate that if the GOP's opinion of the NPR message is low, the GOP might voice discontent before voting to increase their funding.

However, the GOP actually always votes to increase NPR funding and never complains about its Leftist message.

Have you ever considered the possibility that the reason is because the GOP secretly is just FINE with NPR's Leftist bias? I have.

Don't give them any excuse to cut their defense spending even more.

Listened to them interview a WH assistant yesterday about Kavanaugh. The conversation went

Abortion
Abortion
Abortion
Abortion

Immunity

Immunity
Immunity

Not a question about other candidates, not a question about his philosophy or role in the Bush admin or lengthy paper trail.

I like plenty of NPR programs, but their political coverage starts with "What unspeakable evil has Trump done today?" and works backward towards sanity, depending on the guest. I've never heard any right wing/GOP analyst interviewed that wasn't a NeverTrumper.

Yeah, I've been saying Donnie needs to go after this globalist/commie taxpayer funded propaganda medium next.

Germany gets 60-70% of energy from Russia. And it's ridiculous for people to freak out over asking them to pay what they agreed to.

Germany doesn't have a leg to stand on to talk tough to us.

i don't know where they're getting that number from because it's being reported elsewhere that it's much higher. maybe 50%. which is horrifying. russia has them over a barrel
