Good call. Saudi Arabia also acquired EA games; part of the Saudi 2030 plan. Is this a move to buy up Western culture? Kushner received $2 billion from the Saudis, culture=ultra-wealthy. (And Middle East? Middle to what? Is it time to change the colonial reference to the Arab World? Or SWANA?).

#Trump is a GD imbecile.

#ANTIFA is an anti-fascism ideology.

Nothing screams #fascism more than telling people what to think.

This isn't about "what the market wants." It's about the FCC Commissioner appearing on a podcast and openly threatening a network. That isn't "market demand." That's a huge violation of the First Amendment. Anyone who can't understand the First Amendment shouldn't be in public office.

CT State Sen. Matt Lesser has asked CT AG Tong to review Nexstar’s proposed purchase of Tegna, saying it may violate CT antitrust law & the FCC’s 39% cap. He also cites reports Nexstar pushed ABC to drop Jimmy Kimmel after FCC Chair Carr objected to his criticism of Trump.

AOC: All in the name of Charlie Kirk, Trump and the FCC are now cynically threatening to shut down ABC and any outlets who give air time to the administration's political critics.

This is a disgusting attack on the American people and the very first amendment rights that define us as a country.

More Democrats should be talking like this — confident they'll win the House next year at the very least, and already planning the reckonings ahead for "the FCC chairperson and anyone in involved in these dirty deals."

The one bright spot is that Trump and MAGA are extremely reckless and borderline incompetent in their pursuit of absolute power. The FCC chair is literally tweeting and admitting the illegal plan in broad daylight.

I am not a lawyer, but I believe Jimmy Kimmel has "standing" to bring a massive lawsuit against Donald Trump, the FCC Chairman, and ABC over a clearly unconstitutional abuse of power to target a citizen whose speech they didn't like.

This is the very reason the founders wrote the 1st amendment!
