The Tara Show

In a wide-ranging broadcast, the host reports that Senate Republicans, led by John Thune, are seeking votes for a symbolic $9 billion funding cut to agencies like PBS, NPR, and USAID—citing recent revelations that USAID allegedly shipped dangerous viruses abroad. The program also discusses mounting threats against former President Trump by Iranian officials and failures within the Secret Service after multiple assassination attempts. The episode closes with an emotional account of 15-year-old Chastity Nelson, killed in South Carolina by a repeat DUI offender whose prior convictions were mishandled. A vigil overflowing two parking lots honored her life, as the community demanded accountability and reform to prevent more tragedies.
