While calls to "defund NPR" grow louder, the CEO of National Public Radio, Katherine Maher, testified before a House committee today. Things got awkward for Maher when she was being questioned by Rep. Brandon Gill about her past "anti-racist" posts and claims that "America is addicted to white supremacy."

NPR CEO: "We do not track the voter registration, but I find that concerning." 

JORDAN: "87-0 and you're not biased?" 

NPR CEO: "I think that is concerning if those numbers are accurate."

We're a little surprised this one wasn't quietly swept under the rug:

That was of course three and a half years before she switched to the Harris for President hat.
