FCC commissioner Brendan Carr attacks ABC's The View
"Carr's latest campaign to menace hosts of The View & destroy the independence of broadcast media may make him a household name. Because this time ABC & Disney are fighting back, exposing his blatant misconduct as he schemes to censor outlets for refusing to toe the MAGA line." — @lizdye.bsky.social
I guess #WeThePeople canceling our Disney+ subscriptions had a long lasting impact. Good!
Fundamental western values that MAGA declares are unpatriotic, treasonous and partisan: empathy fairness equality free speech cooperation knowledge education separation of church and state rule of law personal autonomy respect
If they'd stood up and and said "f^ck off" from the start, they might not have to fight twice as hard now
Good for ABC. About time someone started pushing back.
I wonder what percentage of Americans actually understand the legal framework that is at play here. No doubt it falls into the familiar 1/3-1/3-1/3 matrix. 1/3 are against Carr politically, 1/3 are in favor of Carr politically, and 1/3 actually understand that he's violating the Constitution.

What a SCHMUCK! Brendan Carr is The Devil ( & a fascist) F-uck C-rooked C-arr “He’s the tip of the spear in the regime’s assault on freedom of speech” 1- open.substack.com/pub/stopthep... 2- open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...
Corporate media does things that look good for the People only when it wants to protect its profit margin, but it will sell out the People for profit, too. End corporate personhood. Overturn Citizens United.
Can't stand this man. The View battle is Lib vs non Lib guests but the real question is: How many Republicans have been invited to be guests on the show and they've turned it down because they don't have the balls to sit there and answer questions?
Brendan Carr is a criminal. 18 U.S.C. § 242 (Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law): This statute makes it a felony for a person acting under color of law to willfully deprive someone of their constitutional or legal rights.
To steal from the inglorious Lieutenant Aldo Raine, you don’t have to be Stonewall Jackson to know not to start a fight with Mickey Mouse.
I’m no attorney but he appears to be a walking, talking, ongoing 1st Amendment violation.
Does FOXNews and the like understand this makes them fair game, too?
Since the FCC is on their shit again... here's a joke for ya in honor of George Carlin. "The RFKjr cure for Covid and bone spurs." (Real, unaltered picture btw)
Btw Mickey has better lawyers
Carr is trying to implement policy that the Founding Fathers fought to free us from.
These Dominionists, like Brendan Carr and Russ Vought, are just so fucking awful. They really believe they are divinely ordained to wipe out the evils of secularism within American culture.
Look at that dudes stupid face.
This is a nothing man. A piece of fascist shit that is hiding from the trumpstein list.
1. The mouse is figuring out that the people can and will crush you just as flat as the government. 2. The stuff Carr controls isn't where the damn money is.
Looks like a Nazi Acts like a Nazi
This guy can eat dirt.
Why do these guys have so much hate in them? Seriously, I cannot understand how a human could have so much hate. It should be a psych disorder
To me Carr is the second most dangerous man in Trump’s clown car cabinet next to OMB’s Vought. The rest are incompetent sycophants but these guys are zealots for their own uber reactionary agenda outlined in Project 2025.
Another soon to be patsy for Trump..
Expose him. Hold him accountable!
Oooooo! He picked a fight with the Rat. Really, really stupid move. Disney has an army of lawyers that will eat him alive & come back for 2nds.
They think The View is the reason women don't vote for Trump. They alsondonnot want women having freedom of speech. Fox is controlled speech. Thats what they want on TV. Controlled state propaganda
I have been using the word Fascism a lot lately.
The View has been under ABC News since 2014, he can f*ck all the way off!
That means all the talk programs on Fox must be fined and shut down. This guy is such a loser. Obviously, no one liked him in high school.
The segregationist Republican Confederate regime hates our Constitution. They believe our rights are designed to cater to their regressive, bigoted beliefs. And their Confederate Supreme Court Justices agree with this BS.
He’s a weak man. He’ll cave.
…and it sounds like he’s losing to both Mickey and Whoopi!
You can see it in the smugness on his face. He no longer finds it necessary to even hide his bias and corruption behind his thin veil of pseudo-diplomacy. That's the stage we are at.
My favorite part of the hard hitting serious news program The View is the View Your Deal segment! I always learn so much…. about light masks, cashmere pashmina’s and rain coats that fold into a 2” square 🙄.
Women on the view & who watch the view aren’t having it
The "mainstream" media care about money. If they sense the popular mood shifting left, they could easily become "woke" and provide a platform for left of center views, not just Trump-approved RW propaganda.
Disney isn't fighting. They're setting terms of surrender; like US Universities did. They're going to dictate everyone's future with the cooperation of their partner in the white house.
A lesson for you all kids - that guy is 47
Remove Carr for bias and incompetence
I hope Carr sees jail in a few years.
The people must rise up
By all means, Carr - let the world see footage running on a loop of your boy's storm troopers marching into ABC affiliates and broadcast centers to “pull the plug” on shows you don’t like. If infamy is your goal, that’s a guaranteed way to get it.
ABC thought the bribe would get Trump off their back. Now they see they have to fight so they don't become another CBS.
“In 2024 actor Tom Cruise, Virgin Talking About Sex, receives the US Navy’s highest civilian award for lifetime recruitment efforts and success stemming from Top Gun in 1986 and its sequel… griobhtha1.substack.com/p/five-years...
you know what they say about people who pick fights they can't win... they end up fertilizing the garden of someone else's victory. 🌱 good on ABC for finally pushing back. takes a village, or in this case, a mouse.
Gee and to think they could have done this to begin with.
If this case makes it to SCOTUS, it will be interesting to see the Trump Justices, especially Gorsuch, say the First Amendment shouldn‘t be interpreted the way it’s always been.
They are all scumbags, each and every one.
"Allowing Carr to muzzle the ladies of The View would be a mistake akin to handing CBS News over to Bari Weiss. And since Trump is loyal to no one, it would only win them a temporary reprieve." By @lizdye.bsky.social in @atrupar.com's latest PN: open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...
As Commissioner Gomez said, "You cannot buy this Administration's favor. For the right price, you can only borrow it. And the price always goes up." Our country is being run like the mafia. Encouraging that some see that and are fighting back.
America is still trying to figure out why the FCC, and Carr, are relevant.
You never submit to bullies because they'll never stop that way.
Hands down far and away the thinest skinned people EVER. And frankly its not that folks are actually lying but presenting facts about who and what these asshats are and maybe they should change THEIR behavior and then there wouldnt be bad facts to discuss.
