NPR, or National Public Radio, currently in the crosshairs of the Trump White House budgeteers, takes contributions/donations/ free money from a wide variety of sources. Recently, one of their donor groups, identified on the air as such, is Kaspersky Labs, the Russyan cybersecurity firm founded in Russya in 1997. Many of its employees, including its founder(s) are on Mr. Putin's "A" List of Friends of Vlad. They hang out at the many Vodka Bars sprinkled around the Kremlin to take off the edges of bureaucratic malaise.
The Washingtonian budgeteers are following Steve Bannon's dictates to cut the funding for a few liberal-supported causes: Nat. Endowment of Arts, Meals on Wheels, and natioanl Public radio, to name a few. Perhaps one of his staffers mentioned the Mr. Putin's cyber spies were making contributions to NPR; maybe not. But broadcasting support from Kaspersky Labs is a very "Red" flag among Trump White House staffers.
I would suspect NPR will no longer maintain a relationship with Kaspersky Lab, especially after all the ink in the NY Times this past week following the Dept. Of Justice indictment of 6 hackers of the Yahoo data base. It also follows the arrest of 1 of the 6 in Canada before he could flee to ................Russya to join his cronies in their vodka-drenched rat hole.
Lake Tahoe, California's Alpine playground, is anchored on the west shore by Homewood/Tahoma, straddling two counties:Placer and El Dorado. The mayor of Tahoma posts information related to the area and items of interest to residents and visitors alike. Its goal is to be informative, humorous, and timely. Hope you enjoy the site.
