FCC Commissioner Gomez speaks out on Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension and government censorship

FCC Commissioner Anna M. Gomez issued the following statement in response to ABC’s decision to capitulate to government pressure that violates the First Amendment and threatens free expression:

“We cannot allow an inexcusable act of political violence to be twisted into a justification for government censorship and control. First, an ABC reporter was told that his coverage amounted to hate speech and that he should be prosecuted simply for doing his job. Then, the FCC threatened to go after this same network, seizing on a late-night comedian’s inopportune joke as a pretext to punish speech it disliked. That led to a shameful show of cowardly corporate capitulation by ABC that has put the foundation of the First Amendment in danger.

“This FCC does not have the authority, the ability, or the constitutional right to police content or punish broadcasters for speech the government dislikes. If it were to take the unprecedented step of trying to revoke broadcast licenses, which are held by local stations rather than national networks, it would run headlong into the First Amendment and fail in court on both the facts and the law. But even the threat to revoke a license is no small matter. It poses an existential risk to a broadcaster, which by definition cannot exist without its license. That makes billion-dollar companies with pending business before the agency all the more vulnerable to pressure to bend to the government’s ideological demands.

“When corporations surrender in the face of that pressure, they endanger not just themselves, but the right to free expression for everyone in this country. The duty to defend the First Amendment does not rest with government, but with all of us. Free speech is the foundation of our democracy, and we must push back against any attempt to erode it.”

Remember the days when Ted and Second posted stuff from the mainstream Legacy Media?

Now they're quoting some pretty shady looking websites when not shilling known George Soros funded misinformation.

Pity Trump’s Defenders

Conservatives rushed to exonerate the president from the charge of censorship. He swiftly contradicted them.

Minutes after news broke that ABC had bowed to the Trump administration’s threats and indefinitely suspended Jimmy Kimmel, Ari Fleischer, the former Bush-administration press secretary, tried to explain why the thing that just happened was not actually what happened. “Liberals want to make this firing about ‘free speech,’” he wrote on X, “Did it ever occur to them the issue might be accuracy? Kimmel told his viewers that Charlie Kirk was murdered by MAGA.”

Nothing to see here, just a network imposing a zero-tolerance standard for factual accuracy upon its comedians and implementing it without warning. (Despite his fanatical belief in the importance of factual accuracy, Fleischer’s own tweet substantially misconstrues the facts: Kimmel’s joke implied that it was possible Kirk’s murderer was a MAGA supporter, but did not say so outright. Fleischer’s self-punishment for this error will no doubt be merciless.)

These are glorious, heady days for the Republican Party’s unselfconsciously authoritarian wing. Every day President Donald Trump tramples on the rights of their enemies, and the natcons rejoice, This is what I voted for.

But we should spare a thought for the party’s more conflicted wing, the anti-anti-Trump conservatives such as Fleischer. They profess support for free speech, democracy, and the rule of law while attempting to remain Republicans in good standing. They resolve this tension by focusing on the hypocrisy and foibles of their old liberal foes and ignoring the actions of the world’s most powerful person.

It is a survival strategy, and not a pleasant way to spend four years. That which causes the natcons unremitted joy forces the anti-anti-Trumpers into painful mental contortions. No event to date has given them more anguish than Trump’s gleeful defenestration of Kimmel.

As the story developed, a slightly more complicated explanation than Fleischer’s hasty effort took shape. The anti-anti-Trumpers conceded that the sequence of events looked bad. Yes, the Federal Communications Commission chair, Brendan Carr, threatened to revoke broadcast licenses from ABC stations, warning, “We can do this the easy way or the hard way.” Rolling Stone reported that “multiple execs” at ABC and Disney considered Kimmel’s comments to be minor, but “the threat of Trump administration retaliation” forced their hand.

But perhaps the relationship between these events was purely coincidental. “Neither Carr nor the FCC ever asked ABC or any of the broadcast stations to do anything specifically. There was no formal complaint or a specific action requested,” Conn Carrol wrote in the Washington Examiner. The conservative commentator Mike Solana insisted that, despite the perception that Trump ordered Kimmel off the air, “this didn’t happen.” Rather, Solana elaborated on X, “jimmy’s ratings were abysmal. he spread a conspiracy theory about kirk. two major affiliates refused to carry his show. ABC fired him.”

Ilya Shapiro, a fellow at the Manhattan Institute, argued on X that Kimmel was fired because his show “was losing money”—“there was thus no govt coercion here.” But, he allowed, “FCC statements were unhelpful because makes it look like threat of govt action for bad viewpoints.”

Trump’s FCC chair threatened to destroy ABC’s business, and the network just so happened to then do something Trump ver

Nobody needs to defend Trump.

The Democratic Party is dead and Americans are much happier than they were a year ago.

You brainfucked communist cocksuckers aren't, I'm sure, but nobody cares about you.

Jimmy Kimmel wasn’t suspended because of poor ratings. He wasn’t suspended because he crossed some ethical red line. He was suspended because the president of the United States decided to make an example of him. It is easy to weaponize vaguely worded statutes and the executive’s discretionary powers against the president’s personal enemies, the comedians who make fat jokes.

Kimmel poked fun at Trump's self-reported weight of 215 pounds during his booking in Georgia. "Either he's lying, or the Colonel is now frying his chicken in Ozempic". Trump "looks like a pumpkin that looks like it got left in the hatchback on a 100 degree day." He also compared Trump to Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love, noting they were close in claimed weight, and joked that maybe "they just weighed Trump's head".

After Charlie Kirk was murdered, Karen Attiah — editor of the Washington Post’s Global Opinions, and its last full-time Black opinion writer — was fired for social media posts in which she said she refused to “tear my clothes and smear ashes on my face in performative mourning for a white man that espoused violence.” She didn’t espouse violence or celebrate Kirk’s death, but apparently describing who he was is a firing offense.

I spoke with her Thursday. Transcript follows:

All not true. Shame on Paul Krugman. Shame.

Here's the real info, and she was one of the people who were making up false quotes about Charlie Kirk, which are put into context with actual clips in this video.



Paul Krugman is just a big a liar as Karen Attiah, who is an unabashed racist and anti-whitist.

Fuck you, Paul.
