#Trump said #federal regulators should consider revoking #BroadcastLicenses over late-night hosts who speak negatively about him, a day after #ABC pulled #JimmyKimmel’s show “indefinitely” after pressure from the #FCC chair. Trump & admin ofcls have long [claimed to have] championed #FreeSpeech, but their actions—as well as promises since Charlie Kirk’s killing—to guarantee it have been replaced by efforts to quash criticism.#law #FirstAmendment #censorship #fascism https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/18/us/politics/trump-fcc-licenses.html?smid=url-share

#Trump said regulators should consider revoking the licenses of broadcasters that air negative coverage or commentary of him, indicating his assault on critics’ is motivated at least in part by personal animus.Speaking on Air Force One, Trump called the networks “an arm of the Democrat party”who are out to get him.“I have read someplace that the networks were 97% against me, I get 97% negative, & yet I won & easily,”Trump claimed adding: “I would think maybe their license should be taken away”

The comments were a remarkable escalation in a coordinated attack by #Trump & his top aides, who are using the #threat of the #power of the US government to #silence criticism or #dissent following the assassination of the #FarRight activist Charlie Kirk.#law #FirstAmendment #censorship #dictatorship #autocracy #authoritarianism #fascism #MafiaState

In the last week, the White House has moved to target the tax status of liberal groups, monitor online speech, deny visas & threaten to designate certain groups as domestic terrorists. The #Trump admin has argued such measures are necessary to crack down on *hate speech* that could incite violence, even as Democrats & others warn that it amounts to a crackdown on opposing views.#law #FirstAmendment #censorship #dictatorship #autocracy #authoritarianism #fascism #MafiaState

On Wednesday, #ABC pulled #JimmyKimmel’s show “indefinitely” after pressure from the #FCC chairman, #BrendanCarr, over the late-night host’s comments about Kirk.#Trump on Thursday indicated that Carr should go even further & scrutinize the #BroadcastLicenses of local television stations that run programming from the major networks, suggesting that both their #news coverage & late-night #comedy shows were unfairly tilted against him. “They give me only bad publicity,” he said.#law #censorship
