MAGA Mike Johnson ready to "axe" PBS and Planned Parenthood

The article from MSN discusses House Speaker Mike Johnson's plans to target funding for both PBS and Planned Parenthood.

This move has sparked debate over the implications for public broadcasting and women's health services, with critics arguing that such cuts could significantly impact vulnerable populations.
