President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Brendan Carr to head the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
Carr was nominated by President Trump in 2017, was unanimously confirmed by the U.S. Senate three times, and currently serves as the FCC's senior Republican commissioner. In announcing Carr's appointment, the president-elect said he would appoint him permanent chair for the remainder of his term.
“His current term ends in 2029, and in recognition of his outstanding accomplishments, I will appoint him permanent chairman,” President Trump wrote.
The president-elect also praised Carr as a “free speech fighter” who “fought against the regulatory laws that have stifled American freedoms and held back our economy.”
Trump added, “He will end the regulatory onslaught that is paralyzing America's job creators and innovators, and ensure the FCC serves rural America.”
In his post about X, Carr thanked Trump and added, “I am humbled and honored to serve as FCC Chairman.”
Just last week, Brendan Carr publicly declared that Big Tech runs a “censorship cartel” that includes organizations like NewsGuard.
“Facebook, Google, Apple, Microsoft and others have played central roles in the censorship cartel. The Orwellian-appointed News Guard works with 'fact-checking' groups and advertising agencies to enforce one-sided reporting. Supported. The censorship cartel must be dismantled,” Carr wrote to X.
In an interview with Breitbart News earlier this year, Carr warned that Democrats on the network were pushing for net neutrality instead of holding big tech companies accountable for their censorship. According to the report:
With Democrats gaining a majority on the committee, the agency announced in September that it would seek to reinstate Obama-era net neutrality regulations. During President Donald Trump's administration, then-Chairman Ajit Pai repealed net neutrality rules.
Essentially, net neutrality regulations prevent Internet service providers (ISPs) like Comcast and Verizon from blocking or slowing down their speeds, or creating “paid preferences” where users pay for faster, more consistent service. The purpose is to allow or prohibit “ranking”.
Carr called the net neutrality proposal an “administrative state power grab” and “illegal overreach” that could violate the “leading questions” principle. Forbidden Government agencies cannot enact policy if the issue is “of great economic and political importance.”
Carr also supported legislation and measures to ban Chinese-owned TikTok, citing concerns that the platform poses both surveillance and cultural risks to the United States.
“It would be different if TikTok was just a platform where people could voice their opinions and get all kinds of content,” he told Breitbart News. “But TikTok has been spying on us, and we admitted that we were spying on a U.S. journalist who was writing a negative article about TikTok. [are] In situations where the First Amendment does not require the government to present a continuing national security risk. ”
