Top Dem HUMILIATES Trump’s FCC Chair
Trump is not your boss. So, the American people are your boss. >> And this incident with Kimmel wasn’t an isolated event. Uh you’ve launched investigations into every major broadcast network except Fox. Is that correct? >> I don’t know if that’s true or not. We do have investigations going on NPR and PBS. We have a number of investigations that are ongoing. >> If you don’t think that the FCC is independent, then is President Trump your boss? >> President Trump has designated me as chairman of the FCC. I think it comes as no surprise that I’m aligned with President Trump on policy. I think that’s why he designated me as chairman. But ultimately, >> do you consider him your boss? >> Ultimately, the the well, President Trump designated me as chairman. I can be fired by the president. The president is the head of the executive branch. The decisions of the commission. >> So, he’s your boss. >> Look, the decisions of the commission are going to be based on a vote of the three of us right here. So, there are some things that are different about that. Uh our decisions are going to be based on the facts and the law and the record. You swore an oath when you came into your job, right? >> Does the oath have the word president in it? >> Senator, again, I I’m I’m not tracking this this line. What I’m saying is every decision. >> Do you remember the oath that you took? >> Yeah. >> You swear an oath to protect what? >> Sir, every single decision, >> what is it that you’re protecting >> in this job based on the Constitution of the United States? I’m just This is not consistent with I’m just trying to get a sense of how you’re trying to operate here. So, I guess I just like to be a little bit more direct here. Have you ever had a conversation with the president or senior administration officials about using the FCC to go after critics? >> Well, first of all, Senator, I don’t get into the the specifics of conversations that I have with >> Okay. Well, let me reframe it then. Would it be appropriate for the president or senior administration officials to give you direction to pressure media companies? >> Look, sir, I’m not going to get into hypotheticals. What I can tell you is the decision by the answer is no. >> The decision of the commission, it’s not a hypothetical. It’s literally just trying to determine whether or not you are understanding your job being belonging to the American people. Trump is not your boss. So the American people are your boss.

Another fu….ng Trump puppets.
I don't mean to sound like En Vogue but he's never gonna get it. What a dipshit. He might as well surgically attached his lips to Trump's ass. š
Trumpers never answer yes or no questions, they always divert an answer thatās not even remotely close to the answer weāre looking for. Itās like they dangling candy in front of us and never giving it
Beyond humiliating ! beyond shameful ! cowardly disgusting, embarrassing beyond belief are we freaking China ??? or Russia ??? WTF is happening in America under this ORANGE schmuck piggy (yes I said piggy because he did š·) face is beyond belief ⦠head of the Kennedy Center are you Freaking kidding me ???!!! in charge of media in charge of the FCC good God give us all a break. This HAS !!! to have an end eventually.
Wow as usual you never get and answer from any of this trumps puppets. They al go
Around dance around the questions
This is definitely a cercus .š¹š
Idiots
FCC chair is a spineless coward
The FCC Chair is a joke and his word salad is incredible⦠Canāt even answer simple questions
Yeah yeah like the other person commented. Why can't they just say yes or no and quit trying to beat around the bush like a squirrel
It irritates me when people donāt answer a yes or no to a question that only requires that. The acrobatics to avoid the question is just rage inducing.
Blah blah blah blah. Too much talking for nothing as my gpa used to say
All he needs to do is give a straight answer. He is like a rabbit caught in the headlights. š
Hopefully they are ready for the people to start taking Law and the enforcement of that in our own hands. Congress should start doing its job, before we do it for them.
Butt kisser to Trump
I thought the FCC was under Congressional oversight?
Also if you are in front of Congress under subpoena isnāt it a requirement to answer the questions put before you by Congress? Whatās all this Iām not going to answer certain questions?
He's not Americam. Doesn't defend our First Amendment
These people should be made to answer the question as a yes or no
Wicketness in high places of power. Plain and simple, evil and foolish.š¢
Can FCC be prosecuted for violating the law i:e constitution by violating the constitution and the laws
Puppet!
Cable stations are not regulated by the FCC.
the fcc chair isn't even supposed to be able to be fired by the president
Canāt wait for the fall of this so called government! What a goon this is and just like all of them they either donāt answer or lie. Then NOTHING happens! Hope some changes are made so it doesnāt happen in the future.
Answering a simple yes or no question with verbal diarrhea is a yes.
So much corruption with this regime. Prison for ALL of them.
I“ve never seen a group of people be so consistently arrogant while being completely wrong and morally corrupt as this administration. Every single person Trump has selected is just as incompetent and unqualified as he is.
Boom⦠š¤ drop
Guy refuses to answer a question like a five year old caught sneaking cookies.
