The House of Representatives has approved a White House request to claw back two years of previously approved funding for public media.
The rescissions package now moves on to the Senate.
This move poses a serious threat to local stations and public media as we know it.
Please take a stand for public media today at GoACPR.org.
Thank you.
Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Korva Coleman.
President Trump is attending the NATO summit in the Netherlands today.
He's noting that the ceasefire between Iran and Israel continues to hold.
Trump has been praising the U.S. bombing of Iranian nuclear sites.
Today he said the level of destruction at those sites is inconclusive,
but he believes they were obliterated.
Trump also pushed back against comments that Iran may have removed uranium from the sites well before the U.S. attacked.
I believe it was total obliteration.
I believe they didn't have a chance to get anything out because we acted fast.
If it would have taken two weeks maybe, but it's very hard to remove that kind of material.
NPR has spoken with independent experts who suggest Iran's nuclear enterprise is far from destroyed.
Meanwhile,
Trump is scheduled to speak again with reporters today following more meetings at the NATO summit.
Oil prices closed at nearly $68 a barrel yesterday.
That price is lower than it was before Israel attacked Iran.
