| | Good morning. As the Trump administration pushes for conservative and independent media to have greater access in the White House, they are declaring war on publicly funded left-leaning media outlets. Also, the FCC blasts Comcast for its recent coverage of a deported MS-13 gang member, and we'll look at the latest fights between warring factions on the right. | |

| | WHAT WE'RE WATCHING | | πΊ FCC chair blasted Comcast for misleading MS-13 coverage. FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr accused Comcast-owned outlets of distorting the facts around Kilmar Abrego Garcia, labeling the illegal MS-13 gang member as a harmless "Maryland man." Carr argued that federal law requires licensed media to serve the public interest, and warned that such news distortion "doesn't cut it." The rebuke adds pressure on corporate media and renews scrutiny of Comcast's DEI practices, which Carr is already investigating for potential civil rights violations. | πͺ Matt Walsh went off on the Karmelo Anthony case. Conservative commentator Matt Walsh of The Daily Wire devoted significant attention last week to the killing of Austin Metcalf, condemning the alleged murderer Karmelo Anthony and his family's public statements. Walsh called the family's press conference "cartoonishly evil," and blasted online donors for supporting Anthony as an act of "racial vengeance." Walsh covering the case with such scrutiny is all but guaranteed to launch it greater national prominence. | π΅οΈββοΈ Tulsi Gabbard under fire from GOP over Iran intel. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is facing backlash from prominent conservatives like Nikki Haley and Mark Levin, who accuse her office of clinging to outdated intelligence downplaying Iran's nuclear threat. Despite Iran's ability to fuel a nuclear bomb in under a week, the intelligence community still claims Iran doesn't have an "active" weapons program β a position critics call dangerously naΓ―ve. | π£οΈ Laura Loomer demanded Michael Waltz resign over Trump defiance. Conservative firebrand Laura Loomer is publicly pressuring National Security Adviser Michael Waltz to step down after allegedly ignoring President Trump's order to fire Ivan Kanapathy. Instead, Waltz promoted Kanapathy β despite his ties to Obama-era officials. The clash reveals ongoing power struggles within Trump's second-term ranks, where loyalty tests are tightening. |
