Oklahoma's Kevin Stitt pulls the plug on PBS, removing state funding after promotion of drag for kids
· May 8, 2023 · NottheBee.com

Last week, Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt made a controversial move and vetoed a bill that comes across the governor's desk every year: Funding for the state's PBS affiliates.

Stitt decided that there's no reason for taxpayers to give their money to an organization that wants to groom kids with LGBT religious programming.

"OETA, to us, is an outdated system. You know, the big, big question is why are we spending taxpayer dollars to prop up or compete with the private sector and run television stations? And then when you go through all of the programing that's happening and the indoctrination and over-sexualization of our children, it's just really problematic, and it doesn't line up with Oklahoma values," Stitt told Fox News Digital.

Yep, the PBS stations in Oklahoma are about to get a reality check. There will be no more televised drag queen story hour brought to you by Oklahoma's tax dollars.

That's not an exaggeration either. PBS literally had a program with a drag queen reading to little kids.

And there's more:

The governor's office also pointed to a "PBS Newshour" feature on parents' support for various gender care treatments including puberty blockers, a gay character in "Work It Out Wombats" which airs on OETA, PBS Kids' "Clifford the Big Red Dog" introducing LGBTQ characters, a plethora of Pride Month programming on OETA, a special about a town of Christians and drag queens who "step into the spotlight to dismantle stereotypes," and a same-sex wedding featured on PBS Kids' "Odd Squad."

This is not your parent's PBS. Sesame Street is pushing vaxxes and drag queens on the kids.

Your kids aren't learning to count and spell. They're learning that men dressing up as women is cool.

Maybe other states should follow Oklahoma's lead!
