Yeah, I stand by it.
Did they think the network brass, these are like producers, writers, and they think they're actually biased in favor of Trump.
So these are the type of people we're dealing with.
So when Trump says, well, we're going to have to yank some licenses.
It's because these people are political operatives.
They're not really journalists.
So if Donald Trump does win, I expect him to appoint someone really strong at the FCC like Hannity.
Yeah, look, I'm always happy to talk about the work of the FCC.
What's interesting to me is that we're actually exiting a period of time as we're closing the door on the Biden administration when there was extreme weaponization of our country's communications laws by the FCC under the Biden regime and, frankly, by Democrats on the very committee that is sending this letter.
This is the same committee that had members, Democrats, wrote letters to cable companies arguing that they should drop

And PBS and NPR are stations that are totally and completely supported by the taxpayer and would cease operations, I believe, if the funding were pulled.
And so what is the metric to actually determine whether they are of public interest, whether that's a good use of taxpayer dollars?
What can the FCC do to either reset the table and ensure that there's fair coverage or to make sure that these goodies that are given to them by us to stop being abused?
Yeah, there's certainly a lot the FCC can do.
And I'm going to do it perhaps as early as this week.
We'll have some more news on that to share.
