President Joe Biden announced back in October his intention to nominate Gigi Sohn as Commissioner of the FCC (Federal Communications Commission). The FCC regulates all communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cable across the United States, which makes this even more worrying. Sohn has stated her belief that “Fox News has had the most negative impact on our democracy.” She also believes that Congress should hold a hearing on the network as she believes it to be “state-sponsored propaganda.”

For all my concerns about #Facebook, I believe that Fox News has had the most negative impact on our democracy. It's state-sponsored propaganda, with few if any opposing viewpoints. Where's the hearing about that? https://t.co/Zwx6KFzrff

Sohn has advocated for the silencing of not just Fox News, but conservatives and Trump Republicans a multitude of times on her Twitter, and soon she may have actual power to do so.
For years, @Twitter & @Facebook tried to appease @realDonaldTrump & other right-wing extremists on phony claims of conservative bias. It didn't work. Great piece from @StevenLevy @WIRED https://t.co/3NiUqNrWma #Sec230

Sohn also co-founded a policy think-tank called Public Knowledge. With no surprise, the organization is funded in part by left-wing billionaire George Soros. Fox News Host and American Patriot Tucker Carlson recently ran a segment on Gigi Sohn alongside Charles Gasperino:
So do you still want me to believe that social media is more dangerous to our democracy than Fox News? https://t.co/sqMIXcbZYh

While it may be funny to point and laugh at Gigi Sohn’s Tweets and dismiss her as some sort of woke college girl that is out of touch with the real world, and that may be so, she could wield real power very soon here. The FCC has the power to regulate virtually every way we get our political information. As our rights and our Republic are further whittled away, who is stopping a potential FCC Commissioner Gigi Sohn from limiting or even shutting down conservative news channels? The FCC has also dabbled with interfering with the internet in the past. Seeing as she condemned Twitter for keeping Trump and Conservatives online, who is to say that she wouldn’t push for the FCC to enforce left-wing ideas on social media. It is absolutely dire for our Republic that a far-left and pro-censorship activist does not gain control of the FCC.
Angry white man. Not a good look, Judge Kavanaugh.
