FCC honcho Brendan Carr accused Democrats of being “engaged in nothing more than Projection and Distortion” in his first remarks since the announcement of Jimmy Kimmel’s return to television. Posting to his X account Tuesday, Carr harangued Democrats, accusing them of “illegally weaponizing government” and placing blame in the Kimmel saga.

On Kimmel, the Democrats are engaged in nothing more than Projection and Distortion. Projection because Democrats are the ones that spent years illegally weaponizing government to silence dissent. And it is Democrats that will do it all again—as they are openly telling you today.

Distortion because Democrats want to blame anything other than Disney and their local TV stations for Kimmel’s suspension. Those businesses decided that, in their view, a suspension made sense. The reporting on this is clear.

Notably, this is the first time recently that any local TV stations have pushed back on a national programmer like Disney. And that is a good thing because we want want empowered local TV stations. After all, local TV stations—not the national programmers—have public interest obligations, and they should be making decisions that in their view meets the needs of their local communities. I walked through all of this in my Concordia remarks yesterday, which are posted below.

Like a cornered rat. His remarks were published worldwide and his threats promised an expansion of his policy decisions.

How can Democrats be "weaponizing" a government that the GOP is in charge of - literally across EVERY BRANCH including the SCOTUS?
