Clyde scrutinizes NPR\u2019s handling of disinformation, citing both Hunter Biden and Nina Jankowicz as prominent examples. He concludes, \u201cI am concerned with the ability of your newsroom to be the \u2018arbiters of truth,\u2019 and police so-called disinformation, without it being a ruse to advance a left-wing political agenda.\u201d\n\n\u201cGiven NPR\u2019s notorious track record of spreading disinformation and selectively reporting on politically damaging stories, it\u2019s both comical and concerning that the liberal media organization is now launching a disinformation team,\u201d said Clyde. \u201cAfter suppressing the truth about Hunter Biden ahead of the 2020 election, it is naive to believe NPR can conduct any operations in a non-partisan manner \u2014 especially policing rhetoric that contradicts their liberal narrative. Furthermore, American taxpayer dollars should not be funding blatantly biased reporting or efforts to conceal credible news. It\u2019s far past time we provide the American people with the answers they deserve and hold NPR accountable for conducting nefarious \u2018journalism\u2019 to advance the radical Left\u2019s agenda.\u201d\n\nCo-signers include: Reps. Jim Banks (IN-03), Andy Biggs (AZ-05), Madison Cawthorn (NC-11), Byron Donalds (FL-19), Matt Gaetz (FL-01), Paul Gosar (AZ-04), Jody Hice (GA-10), Ralph Norman (SC-05), Burgess Owens (UT-04), Scott Perry (PA-10), Guy Reschenthaler (PA-14), Claudia Tenney (NY-22), and Glenn Thompson (PA-15).\n\nRead the full letter HERE.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T02:49:02Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://clyde.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=314"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.26523501239717, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
