Look, look, I like Brendan Carr. He’s a good guy. He’s the chairman of the FCC. I work closely with him. But what he said there is dangerous as hell.

No, no, no, no, no.

Let me tell you what will happen: Going down this road, there will come a time when a Democrat wins again, wins the White House.

It might feel good right now to threaten Jimmy Kimmel, yeah, but when it is used to silence every conservative in America, we will regret it.

I hate what Jimmy Kimmel said, but we should not be in this business. We should denounce it.

And I gotta say, that’s right out of Goodfellas.

I hate what Jimmy Kimmel said. I am thrilled that he was fired.

But let me tell you, if the government gets in the business of saying, ‘We don’t like what you the media have said, we’re going to ban you from the airwaves if you don’t say what we like,’ that will end up bad for conservatives.

They will silence us, they will use this power, and they will use it ruthlessly. And that is dangerous.

I think it is unbelievably dangerous for government to put itself in the position of saying, ‘We’re going to decide what speech we like and what we don’t, and we’re going to threaten to take you off air if we don’t like what you’re saying.’
