‘Dangerous as hell’: Cruz slams FCC chair’s ABC threats

GOP Sen. Ted Cruz on Friday denounced Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr’s threats to drag ABC’s broadcast license as “unbelievably dangerous” and in contrast a few of his rhetoric to “mafioso” ways. In an episode of his podcast, “Verdict with Ted Cruz,” launched on Friday, the Texas Republican mentioned he was “thrilled” Jimmy Kimmel was pulled off the air by ABC over his feedback about conservative influencer Charlie Kirk. But he mentioned he strongly disagreed with the federal government policing speech, asserting it might come again to chunk conservatives when Democrats retake energy. #CNN #News
