    Broadcast TV was already dying. Is the plan to finally shove the pillow on its face?

  2. 1) the word you’re looking for is propaganda

    2) is this dudes name really Harry Cockburn?

  3. Dissent of the government is patriotic.

    People aren’t angry at the government because they hate their country, they are angry because they love their country and they want their country to be better, but the shitty government is not doing the job they were elected to do for the people.

    This is an opportunity to sue the Trump administration over the infringement, violation, quid pro quo threats over the first amendment.

  5. Trump and Brendan Carr are part of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Americans of their First Amendment Rights as guaranteed by the US Constitution.

    Here is the relevant federal law regarding such a situation:

    [18 U.S. Code § 241 – Conspiracy against rights](https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/241)

    >If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same; or
    If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured—
    >
    > They shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both

    I don’t think he understands the current state of media. He can attempt to control a few of the institutions, but a lot of people these days are not getting their information from traditional sources like that.

    This is just a backfire waiting to happen, and I’m excited to see how it blows up.

    He loves Kim Jung Un so much, he wants to turn this country into North Korea.

  11. This in combination with the SAVE act looks like the “one-two punch” to knock democracy into the shadows.
