POTUS Trump calls for REVOKING broadcast licenses of ABC and NBC!!
Truth Social ^ | August 24, 2025 | POTUS Trump

Posted on 08/25/2025 6:42:19 AM PDT by Racketeer

Despite a very high popularity and, according to many, among the greatest 8 months in Presidential History, ABC & NBC FAKE NEWS, two of the worst and most biased networks in history, give me 97% BAD STORIES. IF THAT IS THE CASE, THEY ARE SIMPLY AN ARM OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY AND SHOULD, ACCORDING TO MANY, HAVE THEIR LICENSES REVOKED BY THE FCC. I would be totally in favor of that because they are so biased and untruthful, an actual threat to our Democracy!!! MAGA

This should have been done long ago. Better yet, put their editors in prison. The MSM is the domestic enemy of the USA!!

Why is it that ABC and NBC FAKE NEWS, two of the absolute worst and most biased networks anywhere in the World, aren’t paying Millions of Dollars a year in LICENSE FEES. They should lose their Licenses for their unfair coverage of Republicans and/or Conservatives, but at a minimum, they should pay up BIG for having the privilege of using the most valuable airwaves anywhere at anytime!!! Crooked “journalism” should not be rewarded, it should be terminated!!!

They should be barred the use of the term “news.” Because it isn’t.

I’m missing something here. Isn’t CBS the bad one? Think 60 minutes and Dan Rather. Perhaps our ‘troller’ POTUS is just trying to paint with a broad brush as he disturbs the excrement.

From a Freedom standpoint, I'm not a fan of banning Freedom of Speech, nor Freedom of the Press.

HOWEVER, the flagrant broadcast of FALSE information, from unknown sources, should be met with Defamation and Slander lawsuits of HUGE Punitive Damages, but, with paid-for, threatened, and COMPLICIT rogue Judges, winning at Lawfare is a crapshoot, at best, and with the Roberts Court, the current make up of the USSC is right along the lines of "rogue Judges"....

Bear in mind that the networks themselves have no FCC licenses to take away. Those are held by the individual affiliate stations.

Losing licenses isn't enough. The executives at ABC and NBC need to be charged for every penny of their illegal political contributions-in-kind.

Every dime of advertising dollars needs to be forfeited as well as every bit of USAID money they received.

Donald Trump is the most powerful troll on earth!

Hysterical!

The leftoids are apoplectic, which mean’s they’re off-balance.

Exactly where he wants them.

...an actual threat to our Democracy!!!

You're a threat to our Constitutional Republic when you call our form of government a Democracy.

In a constitutional Republic such as ours...

No offense, but you're more ignorant than U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson on this issue.

You may want to double-check a few things. The phrase "an actual threat to our Democracy!!!" is from Trump's post. Racketeer did not say that.

That is correct.

The good news is that the owners of the networks also own many large market individual stations.

Take those licenses away and the leftist beast takes a mortal wound.

Racketeer did not say that.

Where did I say it was Racketeer who made the comment?

“From a Freedom standpoint, I’m not a fan of banning Freedom of Speech, nor Freedom of the Press.”

That’s my starting point also. Aren’t there conservative-leaning outlets to compute with the ones being complained about.

One can also ask, what net harm have they done? The Democrat party is in shambles. Trump’s on a roll. Citizens are becoming more conservative, I think.
