What was CBS’ USAID take?
How much did they get paid?
SAYS WHO???!!!
The US Constitution is a document binding the parties of the federal govt and the states (and by extension, the citizens). I don't care if SCOTUS declares themselves the final arbiters of how to read the Constitution. SCOTUS is part of the fed govt and, as such, they are a biased party in any argument of if the fed govt has overstepped its bounds.
For example, look at the 1937 Helving vs Davis ruling by SCOTUS. It upheld the Social Security Act, even though it's an obvious violation of the Enumerations Clause. Now broke, corrupt govt manages part of our retirement financial planning "to help us". Under your logic we have should today just accept this ridiculous overreach because 1930s courts said it's kosher. How are the other matters decided by courts from the 1930s (as you put it) any different?
“ In her defense, they needed someone who wouldn’t make the Democrats get rid of Biden to get a better President.”
Like Who? Name one Democrat.
Their front runner is AOC.
The necessary and proper (N&P) clause is another Leftist device to wrest constitutionally protected individual freedom from the American People.
Remember, the Constitution is properly applied as written and originally understood and intended.
Haven’t you noticed that EVERY deviation from the Constitution has ALWSY resulted in MORE power to the federal gov’t which equals LESS power to you as an individual?
What happened to American love of individual freedom. It is what others have literally died to come to America for.

27m2min11sec she says “what we do… must be in the context of… what has happened.”
I thought we were unburdened?
CBS hiding this was an illegal political contribution-in-kind.
It’s original purpose was to regulate the frequencies and coverage areas of various radio stations so they didn’t conflict. That’s all they should be for.
If they got rid of Biden before he left, she would step into the Presidency. That’s why they talked about getting rid of her before the debate debacle.

Not true. See the topic "News Distortion" under the FCC's website. To wit:
"News Distortion. The Commission often receives complaints concerning broadcast journalism, such as allegations that stations have aired inaccurate or one-sided news reports or comments, covered stories inadequately, or overly dramatized the events that they cover. For the reasons noted previously, the Commission generally will not intervene in these cases because it would be inconsistent with the First Amendment to replace the journalistic judgment of licensees with our own. However, as public trustees, broadcast licensees may not intentionally distort the news. The FCC has stated that “rigging or slanting the news is a most heinous act against the public interest.” The Commission will investigate a station for news distortion if it receives documented evidence of rigging or slanting, such as testimony or other documentation..."
They didn’t have radios in 1788. The purpose of the CC was to eliminate obstructions to commerce between states. If radio communication could be shown to obstruct commerce between states, then CC is applicable.
But that has not been the case by a long shot.
There are laws against editing someone to say something they didn’t say.
CBS perpetrated a fraud.
This isn’t a free speech issue, it is a fraud issue.
After this criminal act, Dan Rather is going to be demanding his job back!

At the time the Constitution was written, to "regulate" meant to or 'make regular,' usual, and unimpeded. It meant nothing about restraining any particular type of commerce, although fraud does inhibit commerce but only as a secondary effect. Effectively the intent was to preclude tariffs and other trade barriers among the States.
Only if and to the degree the radio waves hinder commerce between states.
Again, WAY FAR AWAY from the huge power the FCC wields.
Who would they have put in, is my question
Every WOW discovery, exposure, revelation that we have been witnessing these last two weeks indicate that the whole commie bunch of them never expected to get caught. They thought they had it in the bag for the rest of time.
Precisely!
