Our deep dive (73pp) into the FCC forcing ABC to apply to renew its broadcast licenses, the most egregious abuse of power in the 92-year history of the FCC. This is Carr at his most shameless, ruthless, and dangerous. techfreedom.org/fcc-cant-use...

I'm very proud to have helped organize this coalition through @techfreedom.org

Protect Democracy

NEW: A bipartisan coalition of former FCC officials, represented by Protect Democracy, filed an opposition urging the FCC to terminate its early renewal review of ABC's licenses — a proceeding they call "an assault on free speech disguised as regulatory process." https://protdem.org/3Rjacrj

Mover over, America 250. I'm ready for Burgundy 550: the anniversary of Benelux constitutional government. Sadly: "There are currently no major public events, festivals, or exhibitions scheduled to celebrate the anniversary of the Great Privilege issued by Mary of Burgundy on February 11, 1477."

‘Polarization’ has become the master concept for diagnosing our current democratic crisis. But this is not polarization. It is the radicalization of the political right. By misdiagnosing it, we risk becoming complicit in the crisis. 🧵 Just out in Perspectives on Politics doi.org/10.1017/S153...

Why is replacing Planter hard? Literally the governor of Maine is ready to go. Janet Mills. This is a no brainer.

The FCC is trying to suppress TV interviews with political candidates it doesn't like, starting with The View. This is part of the greatest jawboning effort in American history. It is wildly unconstitutional, as @TechFreedom's comments explain techfreedom.org/fcc-should-g...

FTC's suit against WPATH will be dismissed before a court even reaches the obvious First Amendment Qs because the FTC Act applies only to "commerce" and thus applies to non-profits only when they engage in "commerce," which WPATH does not. 🧵

Paramount to state AGs: you can't stop us from buying Warner Brothers because you think it would reduce viewpoint diversity ✅ Elsewhere... Trump DOJ & FTC: reduction in viewpoint diversity is an antitrust harm ❌ Obviously, the First Amendment trumps antitrust law. techfreedom.org/wp-content/u...

Carr's attacks on ABC are an "extraordinary demonstration of power and coercion directed at disfavored editorial voices, which sends a clear warning to every broadcaster in America" & a plain First Amendment violation says ABC in its application to renew its licenses techfreedom.org/wp-content/u...

I've spent much of the last nine months trying to stop FCC from weaponizing its news distortion policy. Today our bipartisan coalition asked the DC Circuit to require the FCC to act on our petition one way or the other.

Benny Johnson: fire Jimmy Kimmel for his "expectant widow" joke and cancel ABC's broadcast licenses White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt just before the WHCD: "there will be some shots fired tonight" Will she be fired, too?
