MSNBC host Katie Phang made the obligatory disclaimer that "we all respect the First Amendment."
But in the same breath in her interview of Dem Rep. Eric Swalwell aired on her Saturday show, Phang suggested to Swalwell that there should be "congressional oversight, regulations, some type of gatekeeping" of Fox News.
And just like Phang with her phony expression of devotion to the First Amendment, Swalwell piously professed, "I don't want to get into the business of telling troops what they can and cannot watch."
But he proceeded to suggest just that:
I don't want to get into the business of telling troops what they can and cannot watch. But if you have a news station that a court is going to rule is, in its evening hour, perpetuating dis- and misinformation, I don't know if I disagree with [inaudible, maybe "those"?] that saying that we need to take a look at how this is being broadcast to our troops.

Swalwell should keep his pecker in his pants and away from Chinese spy whores
Is Phang-Phang Swalwell’s new Bang-Bang?
Imagine Biden creating a Bureau of Television Truth—Armed Forces Division, with the power to ban shows not to its liking! And as its first commissar, why not . . . Eric Swalwell!
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
TRAITOR!
Is that Fang Fang interviewing Swallowswell?
Who needs a First Amendment? Just let the courts decide what is permissible speech.
Our ideas terrify the left and their behavior proves it.
“Biden creating a Bureau of Television Truth”
He already tried that with the kooky “Disinformation Czar” woman. They are going to keep trying. He will pack the FCC to get it done and I understand the “Disinformation Czar” position may be filled yet, just not by a lightning rod idiot.
big government deciding who can watch what? Gee- that doesn’t sound at all like a tyrannical government- nope nosiree /s
Breaking- Swalwell openly reveals that he is a commie!
Would somebody just please pull his batteries?
It is difficult to come up with anyone a tenth as smarmy as he is. He must have been born looking like a jerk and hasn’t changed. What does he know about our military troops??????????? It’s blasphemy for him to even mention them.
“”perpetuating dis- and misinformation””
Can he define the difference?
The RATs have been denying the counting of military votes for years. Now this swine like Swallowell want to deny them the right to choose what they watch and listen to.
I really think Swallwell has been inhaling his own farts for too long.
“”Would somebody just please pull his batteries?””
Excellent idea.
IF Shifty makes it to the Senate, what’s Swalwell going to do? Californians make some pretty bad choices in their representatives/senators but I can’t believe they’d elevate Shifty to the Senate...
LOL!
FANG FANG AND NOW PHANG! COMMUNISTS!
fascism on display at PMSNBC
The fart-meister, China lover sees the Military like bricks in the wall. Good little robots that do what they are told.
He is scum of the lowest order. Apologies to scum.
