'First Amendment under fire': Soto TORCHES FCC Chair for silencing Trump critics at fiery hearing

At a fiery House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing, Rep. Darren Soto accused FCC Chairman Brendan Carr of turning the agency into 'Trump’s attack dog,' censoring news and satire that criticize the former president. Carr defended his actions, claiming he operates in the public interest, but lawmakers slammed the move as a direct assault on First Amendment rights. The confrontation raises urgent questions about free speech, government overreach, and the role of the FCC in regulating political content.
