Trump barreling through directly into dictatorship

The Trump administration threatened retaliatory regulatory action against a network for constitutionally protected speech.

Get it right.

Prove it, or are you making it up or repeating others opinions?

Prove it? The FCC chief said it in public.

So he said out of his own mouth that Trump would hurt or ruin the new purchase if these people weren’t fired and you can show this?

I gave a direct quote on p. 1 of the "Kimmel" thread. It was a threat directed at ABC about "the FCC having more work to do" if Kimmel wasn't punished.

Do you deny that is a government official threatening to punish speech?

Here it is again: Carr accused Kimmel of “an intentional effort to mislead the American people” and threatened Disney and ABC’s affiliates with regulatory retribution in response, saying: “We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to change conduct and take actions on Kimmel, or there's going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”

He specifically suggested that affiliate networks should tell Disney that they would not run Kimmel’s show “until you straighten this out” and insinuated that they could face “license revocation from the FCC” if they did not.

This was during Carr's appearance on Benny Johnson's show Tuesday night.
A day later, Kimmel's show was taken off the air.

Intentional effort to mislead is ridiculous because the Utah governor stated that he prayed the shooter was not one of us, which is exactly what Kimmel was talking about.

Maybe you think the President should be able to murder anyone he claims is a "drug smuggler".

Is that it?

And their families. And Antifa and Antifa members’ families.

This is what was said linked off your article where they use words like trumpy, great source. Fake news is an issue and they defiantly spread lies, while representing only a portion of the country. Do you know who paid 16 million to Trump?

BREAKING: The FCC Chairman is threatening immediate action against Jimmy Kimmel, ABC, and Disney for deliberately misleading the public by claiming Charlie Kirk’s assassin was a MAGA Conservative.

Chairman Brendan Carr calls Kimmel’s malicious lies are “truly sick” and says they should result in Kimmel's immediate suspension and may lead to ABC losing its broadcast license.

Chairman Carr confirms the agency has a “strong case” to hold Kimmel, ABC, and Disney accountable for spreading dangerous, politically motivated misinformation.

"This is a very, very serious issue right now for Disney. We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to take action on Kimmel or there is going to be additional work for the FCC ahead."

"They have a license granted by us at the FCC, and that comes with it an obligation to operate in the public interest."

"There are calls for Kimmel to be fired. I think you could certainly see a path forward for suspension over this."

"The FCC could make a strong argument that this is sort of an intentional effort to mislead the American people about a very core fundamental fact, a very important matter."

"Disney needs to see some change here, but the individual licensed stations that are taking their content, it's time for them to step up and say this, you know, garbage to the extent that that's what comes down the pipe in the future isn't something that we think serves the needs of our local communities. But, but this sort of status quo is obviously not, not acceptable where we are."

Thank you for your strong leadership here, Chairman

@BrendanCarrFCC

That shows exactly what I said; the FCC chairman threatening ABC and its affiliates with negative regulatory action unless Kimmel is punished:

"We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to take action on Kimmel or there is going to be additional work for the FCC ahead."

Thanks for agreeing with me.

What is wrong with threatening to apply applicable laws?

Oh thats right, you didnt want to add that parts did you?

You made it as a definite thing, and they have never been anything but a hate filled liberals, I’m glad their gone. We should get truth and owners should not be biased letting fake news run wild.

There is no law allowing the FCC to punish affiliates for airing protected speech.

OMG the hypocrisy. There's an entire network, the most popular in the US, that does nothing but air right wing propaganda 24/7. Yet, a late night talk show host makes a comment right wing nitwits don't like and his show should be cancelled.

Unbelievable. You guys really do hate the US Constitution.
