Anyway, we should get to the news.

This is a really interesting story, I thought, and I was paying attention.

It was why the FCC's lone Democratic commissioner is accusing the Trump administration of waging a, quote, sustained, coordinated campaign of censorship and control against ABC.

In a letter to Disney CEO Josh DeMauro, Anna Gomez said the FCC under Brendan Brandacar has been weaponized to pressure a free and independent press.

and all media into submission.

The letter comes after ABC accused the FCC of attempting to chill free speech, which it did, in a petition filed last week.

That filing is tied to the FCC's probe into whether The View violated equal time rules when Texas Senate candidate James Tallarico went on the show earlier this year.

ABC argues the view got an FCC exemption in 2002 as a bona fide news interview program, which it is.

And that ruling remains in effect today.

And, you know, as usual, Brenda has said so many things publicly that are really damning in terms of when they come to court, you know, as being such a suck up to the Trump administration and not an independent ruling.

person he's supposed to be.

He can have his opinions about things, but he has become more censorious than all the left he accuses them of and is making all manner of business threats.

It's interesting that Disney and ABC is pushing back rather hard under this new CEO, something probably

I suspect Iger wanted to do, but felt he couldn't at the time.

But any thoughts on this?

They did push back on DeSantis, if you recall.

Remember, they sort of played games with him for a while.

And Brenda is just making it worse by giving these stupid speeches with this smug little, you know, shit-eating grin that he always has on his face.

And again, Brenda, I'm following you everywhere you go after you leave office, and I will make sure people understand what you did constantly.

Yeah, we will.
