Senator Ted Cruz criticized FCC Chairman Brendan Carr for threatening ABC stations after Jimmy Kimmel's comments about the suspect in the Charlie Kirk shooting. Cruz likened Carr's actions to intimidation tactics, drawing parallels to the film 'Goodfellas'. Following Carr's remarks, Nexstar and Disney pulled Kimmel's show indefinitely. This decision sparked backlash, with protests, congressional Democrats promising investigations, and Obama criticizing the lack of First Amendment defense. Cruz, while disliking Kimmel, warned against government censorship, highlighting potential repercussions for conservatives if Democrats regain power.
