Nope. The FCC is an “independent” agency. The President appoints the Chairman, but he has no direct legal authority to control the FCC’s policy making.

Also, the FCC doesn’t get involved in routine trade matters, other than to issue or deny type-acceptance permissions for imported (as well as domestically made) devices that emit RF energy.

This is hardly routine.

Isn't that also true for the NSA and every agency that is part of the rogue "Administrative/Regulatory State", the unconstitutional fourth branch of the feds?
