2-18-26 Hour 3 - Colbert Cries FCC, CBS Disagrees

Gardening. Food. That comes out of dirt. It's magic. Magic. Food comes out of dirt. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as an adult discovering that lettuce grows in the ground. She's really from the suburbs, you know, she's... She's dumber than anyone thought. Bah, blah, bar. I don't know. It is... Mailbag day, mailbag day. But since we did Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez there, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, she's been dazzling the world. She, um, she in Munich at the Munich Security Conference, formerly known as the Verkunda, Das Der Verkunda. When I went to the Verkunda Conference in Munich long ago, aboard Ronald Reagan's old Air Force One that had been moved on to becoming an airplane for cabinet secretaries, and I flew there with the Secretary of Defense. But... She, that's, as her, remember when she discovered the garbage disposal and that freaked her out? And then she discovered there was a community garden and people were growing lettuce and carrots and the community garden. And she was freaked out that food grew in dirt. Crazy, completely crazy. But let's go forward to Munich and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She was asked this. We played this one for you yesterday, but she honestly, this person, Venezuela is entirely north of the equator just for the record. Here is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez being a genius and running for president at the Munich Security Conference in Germany. Look at what happened in Venezuela, for example. Venezuela. It is not a... It is not a remark on who Maduro was as a leader. He canceled elections. He was an anti-democratic leader. That doesn't mean that we can kidnap ahead of state and engage in acts of war just because the nation is below the equator. Ah, that's why. And they all clap. And then they invaded Poland. It, yeah, because it's below the equator and crimes and kidnapping. He is a wanted criminal, one of the world's leading drug traffickers, and he was taken into custody by the United States. He stole the election in Venezuela. And the Democrats are good with it. They're good with the drug trafficking. They're good with Hugo Chavez's daughter being worth $4 billion and being the wealthiest person in all of Venezuela. They're fine with all this, and they're fine with Venezuela, apparently being south of the equator. or below, below the equator. They use the words, but they don't know what they mean. And I've got to say, going back and forth with my friends with JD Vance and Vanceley and his lovely bride, Jerry, last night.

And said, you know, we were watching Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in Munich, and it reminded us of only one thing. And I said, really, what's that? What's that, JD Vance? What's that, Jerry? Said, well, you may remember the Miss South Carolina getting a question and answer thing a little bit jumbled. Poor old Miss South Carolina. Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the U.S. on a world map. Why do you think this is? That's the question. I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because some... People out there in our nation don't have maps. And I believe that our education, like such as South Africa and the Iraq everywhere, like such as. Such as. I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S. or should help South Africa and should help the Iraq in the Asian countries. So we will be able to build up our future. What? Thank you very much. Thank you very much. The guy holding the microphone is looking around like, is it me? What's going on here? Some American people don't have maps, and that's why they can't spot the United States of America on a world map because education and then something about South Africa. And naturally, That having resurfaced now, it reminded everyone of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Munich. Would and should the U.S. actually commit U.S. troops to defend Taiwan if China were to move? You know, I think that this is such a, you know, I think that this is a, you know, This is, of course, a very longstanding policy of the United States. Huh? And I think what we are hoping for is that we want to make sure that we never... get to that point. And we want to make sure that we are moving in all of our economic research and our global positions to avoid any such confrontation. And for that question to even arise. And for that, all right, Ms. South Carolina. Maybe her code name should be Ms. South Carolina from now on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of South Carolina. Man, oh man. That is a good one. She is really something.

She's a Democrat in good standing in the House of Representatives in the United States of America. The media think that she's a star. They want to get in the hot tub with her. And a lot of people want to get in the hot tub with her. I'm guessing it's probably not completely out of the... And JD Vance, the vice president of the United States, was asked about and future president of the United States. The security details got to stay sharp, though, because the Democrats. But JD Vance... was asked about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in Munich, and she had some pretty crazy answers, didn't she, Mr. Vice President? Does anybody really believe that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has very thoughtful ideas about the global world order or about what the United States should do with our policy in Asia or our policy in Europe? No, this is a person who is mouthing the slogans that somebody else gave her. And that's generous, but I think she's spent her entire life mouthing the slogans and JD Vance is the vice president. Look, that was embarrassing. If I had given that answer, I would say, you know what? Maybe I ought to go read a book about China and Taiwan before I go out on the world stage again. I hope that Congresswoman Cortez has the same humility. I'm skeptical. You have every reason to be skeptical. Humility is not a Democrat Party trait. It's not a Democrat Party quality. The Iraq everywhere such as and... The Iraq everywhere such as... This is, of course, a very long-standing... This is a... What is it? This is, of course, a very long-standing policy. Slap the side of your head with the heel of your hand, and maybe it'll come to you. Aren't they wonderful? The Democrat Party. All right. Pretty amazing stuff. Isn't that great? Miss South Carolina. Yes, sir. and Democrat Congresswoman, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. There it is. Now, it is Mailbag Day. I mentioned that it's Mailbag Day, and let me get to Mailbag questions, which might be considered queries. But I think today they're all questions. I think today they're questions. I don't think there is a query among them. Hang on. First question, today's Mailbag. Hey, Chris, it's from Barry, from Barry. Hey, Chris, who's the most famous person you've ever had a beer with? Not someone you met, but actually sat down and drank a beer with at a bar or restaurant. Well, that's, gosh, I don't know, I'd have to give that. I'd have to mull that for quite some time. But I can tell you that Michael Pearson and I mentioned it a while ago. when I read it aloud to Michael Pearson. And there are a number of different answers. Now, I did sit down and have beer, not in a bar, but with Ronald Reagan at yard parties in Santa Barbara, California, and Hope Ranch, and in the valley, the San Anas Valley.

where I was able to hang out and standing sometimes, but sitting down and drinking beer with Ronald Reagan also, and he's a pretty famous guy. But that might not count because he was president of the United States at the time. And let me jump ahead when I was living, same time when I was living in California, living in Santa Barbara. I went to a bar in Montecito, a restaurant and bar in Montecito on Coast Village Road when I was probably 22 years old or something. So it had to be when Ronald Reagan was president. It had to be 1982, I'll say, 1982. And went to this place, I think it was called La Chamier, a Frenchie place. And I was doubtless riding my bicycle. And I say, you know what, I'm going to stop and have a beer. So I went and I sat nice sunny day afternoon. And I walked into this place and I had a bar when you walk in and the restaurant behind. And I went to the end of the bar and I sat down. And there was one guy at the bar sitting around the bend. And it wasn't a big bar. He's five stools, bar stools away from me. But he's sitting there by him. He's the only guy in there this sunny afternoon in Montecito. And I sat down and I ordered a beer. And I see this guy sitting down here and he's got brown liquor in a glass with ice. And he's a grown man. And I said hi to him because we're the only two people in the place, and I do that. And he said hi back and asked kind of a throwaway question. And I answer it. I said, oh, good. And then I realized it was the Hollywood movie star, Robert Mitchum, Robert Mitchum, who is no small potatoes in the, you know, in the 1950s, the 1960s. And now it's the 1980s. And it turns out he lived in Montecito. And I learned later that this was a hangout of his neighborhood hangout. And I actually went back one more time like two weeks later. And there was Robert Mitchum again sitting at the bar having brown liquor in a glass with ice. And I ordered beer again. And again, we had a nice talk. And a little of this, little that, nothing too serious. I think Ronald Reagan coming to Santa Barbara was talked about. And that was a good one. And then I got a, and I know Robert Mitcham was really, and he was a really cool actor. He really was a badass cool actor forever. And I was kind of thrilled. It's like, you know, you don't want to meet Dom Deloise so much, but Robert Mitchum, pretty cool. And then I would fast forward again and say that Rob O'Neill, Rob O'Neill, who I sat down with a couple of times and had a couple of beers at different locations once we had a beer standing, I think, at the Naval Academy outside of a football game. Now, who's Rob O'Neill? Who's Rob O'Neill? Because he said a famous person. Well, Rob O'Neill was the Navy SEAL, SEAL Team 6, that went in on the Abbottabad raid in Kostelistan and killed Osama bin Laden and pulled his body out. And Rob O'Neal is the guy who pulled the trigger for the final time and killed Osama bin Laden. And he was a regular guy, regular American guy, enlisted guy who...

who became a Navy SEAL and SEAL Team 6 and found himself in that compound in Abbottabad and shot and killed Osama bin Laden. And I would rank him high, very high, because that's a cool thing. That's a really cool thing. Robert Mitchum fun, Ronald Reagan fun. And I've got to say, for more, I'm going to have to give it the thought because there's been a lot of stuff going on, you know. But thank you, Barry. It's a fun question phrased in a fun way. James asks, hey, Chris, love the show. Surprise it took me so long to find you on WLS, Chicago, Illinois. What is your show prep like? And do you use notes? Well, my show prep is nonstop and never ending. And quite honestly, my show prep has been ongoing since I was a teenager. And I've been collecting and accumulating information and trying not to forget everything. And following the news of the day and the actors, not the Hollywood actors, but the political actors and law enforcement and military. And I've been preparing, honestly, since I was a teenager when I started specializing in war and mayhem and nuclear weapons. and all of that. And I prepare, when I leave here, I start preparing immediately, basically, and I consume news on the television on my iPad all day and all night, every day, weekends included. I'm constantly accumulating news and data and information and learning and investigating and saying, well, that doesn't sound quite right. And I researched and I spent a lot of time on my iPad with the keyboard. You know, because I can move around the apartment with it and all that stuff. And do I use notes? I tell you, we, Michael and I prepare a stories sheet. And today, the story sheet, it's just links to news stories that I can click on here in the computer. And how many pages do we have today? Like nine pages of stories. Michael says seven pages of stories of links and some cut and paste tweets and things like that. But as for handwritten notes, and these are notes of a sort, the stories list. And we could share it. We could post today's stories list on the internet on Twitter and Facebook and things. But do I use notes? Almost never. I have a note pad at home. It's actually an atlas, and it's about two feet high and a foot wide, and it's thin, and it's a world atlas. And I have a printer paper in there in a little sleeve. And I pull that out and I use the Atlas as my notepad. And I can move around with that. And I write a couple of notes. But I got to tell you, that's just to build it into my memory, to write it as just to build it into my memory. But I really don't use notes. I use the links to the stories that I've already read and Michael Pearson and I have shared.

And I click on those stories. I have a number of them in front of me right now up on the computer. But notes I really don't. I study. I study. I absorb it. I read it. And sometimes I highlight passages in print stories. I gather a lot of sound bites from various television news outlets. But then I come in here and I riff, and it's all off the top of my head. I know somebody that does a radio show who writes out her radio show for three hours ahead of time, and it sounds like it. But I do everything. Once I prepare, I come in and I riff, and everything is spontaneous. No notes. But all prep all the time. You didn't start a business just to keep the lights on.

I see there are great people on the board here having called in that I want to get to. We have more Democrat idiocy because, you know, oh, yeah, Stephen Colbert. He's a victim now, a $14 million a year victim. But back to the mailbag, Valerie. Valerie asks, hey, Chris, love your show on Newsmax, but Jason Nichols, he's the liberal on the show, has TDS. He does have a terrible case of Trump derangement syndrome. He has TDS so bad it's hard to watch. What advice would you give to people dealing with severe TDS? I'd say that it is a bona fide. I read it here that psychiatrists have said that it's a bona fide mental illness that Democrats are suffering from in very large numbers. And I would tell them probably to leave the country and never come back. I'd say leave the country and never come back. Or just turn off the TV. Stop consuming news. Go out. Everything's fine. Everybody's fine except you. Well, the economy's great. We're not at war. I hope are they wrong or anything anytime soon. Just live your life and stop being a political fanatic.

Scrolling with Haley. I'm Haley Karenia. I scroll with the homies here in the live chat because there's a lot to scroll through on X, on Instagram, on TikTok. Cutting through the clutter, one hot take at a time. Love seeing you all in the chat before the show. I tried to jump in just a few minutes before to say hello. I love the chat interaction. Thank you for helping. But I do it to get all of the videos and all of the content that you won't find anywhere else. Scrolling with Haley. Just search that up and I will be there. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. All right, we have returned. I've got to tell you, I'm a little embarrassed. My best girl texted me, listening to the big radio broadcast, said, you know, people you've had, famous people you've had a beer with, just hit a bar. And it's funny because we were talking about it over the weekend, I think. with some other people. John Riggins, John Riggins of the Washington Redskins used to come to a bar in our neighborhood, a sports bar in our neighborhood. On Sundays, he did a Sunday radio show nearby, and then he would go to this sports bar. It was called 2D Second District, named after the police district there. And I just went in there by happenstance one day. And again, it was an after, it was a Sunday afternoon. And I came in and sat down and I was by myself. And the only other person sitting at the bar was not Robert Mitchum, but it was John Riggins, John Riggins. And I was by myself and I grabbed a beer and he was by himself. And there was basically nobody else in the place the first time I saw him there. And I said, John Riggins. And he said, yeah, yeah. And we started talking and we just BS for a while and had several beers together, just hanging out and stuff. And I said, you know, what do you do? I do a radio show on Sunday. And then this is the closest bar. So I come over here. Okay, that's fun. And we hung out. And then I went on with life and went home to my best girl or we went someplace else. And then the next Sunday, I went back there to the same sports bar in the neighborhood. And at the same time of date, Riggins was back there by himself sitting at the bar. He has remembered what he was playing for the Redskins. He was asked at a press conference once. said, John, do you have a drinking problem? Do you remember this? He was asked, do you have a drinking problem? And without missing a beat, he said, only when I hang upside down by my knees. Only when I hang up, that's a drinking problem. Only when I hang upside down by my knees. So that's good. John Riggins in the bar in Washington, D.C. more than, I think, three times. And it was a lot of fun. I met his sister once, too, at a great patriotic event, and she couldn't be more wonderful. John Riggins' sister. Just wonderful. But that's good. And also it occurred to me, but this is a little different. It's not just showing up in a bar. But my best girl and I, we became great friends with a famous and great author and screenwriter, William Peter Blattie, who wrote The Exorcist and the book and then the movie The Exorcist. And we became great friends. And he passed on... to his reward a while back. But we became great friends, William Bill Bladdy. He just went by Bill. William Peter Bladdy and Bill Bladdy and I became great friends. And he and his wonderful bride and even his kids came along on sea cruises, multiple sea cruises, the Chris Plant Sea Cruises, wonderful stuff.

And so hanging out with William Peter Blattie, author of The Exorcist, he won the Oscar for the screenplay of The Exorcist and at his house, got a bar in the house with the Oscar on it for the Exorcist. That's pretty good stuff. And because William Peter Blattie, Bill Blattie, a great friend of Supreme Court Justice, Antonin Scalia. And over at Bill and Julie Blatty's house hanging out with Antonin Scalia, the Supreme Court Justice in heaven beers with him. And that was kind of great. And Anton and Scalia, who was a great fan of the opera, great fan of the opera and would attend the opera everywhere, and a wonderful opera fan. And while enjoying cocktails together, Antonin and Scalia got down on one knee, on one knee, and spread his arms out like he's singing Mammy, and he sang to my best girl. He didn't sing to me because he was a normal man. But he sang to my best girl while we were having cocktails. I was having beer. And, and Tennant Scalia got down and won't, and sang. And so did he sing a great operatic song? No, he sang the song that he learned as a kid at camp. He sang his camp song down on one knee to my best girl while we were having cocktails. And that was good stuff. Great stuff. And again, I said I have to think about it. And then my best girl texts me, what about Riggins, you big dope? So good stuff. And there are more, no doubt, but... But that goes on. And back to the mailbag because Valerie asked, hey, Chris, love your show on Newsmax, but Jason Nichols, the liberal on the show, University of Maryland professor, has Trump derangement syndrome so bad it's hard to watch. You know, Valerie, not the first time I've heard that. I've heard a lot of people who turned the channel when Jason Nichols starts talking because a lot of hooey, a lot of hooey going on. And you have to fact check everything that he says because it's always some kind of Weasley Democrat Party talking point and all that. What advice should we give people dealing with severe TDS? I'd say seek help. You're on the wrong blend of medications. Maybe you should leave the country. It might be best for everyone. But it is an illness. And then Joyful. Joyful asks, what a wonderful name. Joyful ask, Chris Plant. Why don't you just tell Jason Nichols, same guy, same liberal on the Newsmax TV show. Why don't you just tell Jason Nichols to pack his bags and move the hell out of America since he hates it so much? Well, see, here's the thing, joyful.

They're not happy unless they're not happy. All the libs, they demand unhappiness from everyone. And if they move to another country and let's just say to Cambodia, where they could love the genocide and they could accuse everybody of genocide and call everybody racist and so. But they moved to Cambodia. They might be happy. And because Joyful, they're not happy unless they're not happy. They don't want to move someplace where they'd be happy like Rosie O'Donnell moved to Ireland. And then she sneaked back into the country because of some bastard child issue or something like that and sneak like it's like, you know, she's Hogan's heroes and she's sneaking into town to pull off just ridiculous. But they insist on unhappiness. And here's the thing, Joyful. They don't want to be happy. They want the rest of us to be unhappy with them. Because misery loves company, and they're not happy unless they're not happy. They don't want to be happy. It's not a goal for them to be happy. It's a goal of theirs to make us unhappy. See? Because then they'd be happy if everyone else were unhappy too. That's what makes them happy, joyful, is other people's misery. Mm-mm-mm. I'm telling you. And then finally, Bammo. Bam-o asks, can you smell the Potomac River's sewage spill from your house? Is State of Maryland at fault? Good thing Trump is taking action to clean it up. And it's true, the Democrats, it's Maryland. And he was out there, Maryland governor of Maryland, who is a fraud and a charlatan and an embarrassment. But he's out there blaming Trump. He actually came out and blamed Trump. Oh, the federal government took this out. It's in Maryland. It's your spill. It's going to the Potomac River. which is, you know, Maryland is on one side of it, and the district, Columbia on one side of it, Virginia on the other side of it in this part of the river. And the biggest toxic waste spill of human feces in the history of the United States America and the fraud who the Democrats want to make president because he's black, and that's all there is to it. Hey, they want to make him president. And it's Maryland's fault and it's D.C.'s fault. It's Maryland's fault and it's D.C.'s fault. And Virginia, everything is on the other side of the river. All the spill is from the other side. It's across from Virginia. But the Democrats, they lie about everything and they just have to be unhappy about everything, too. Pretty amazing stuff. And again, the dim-wit governor,

He wants to blame Trump because Trump derangement syndrome. They're all mentally ill. And by the way, my great friend Connie Hare, Connie Hare sent me all her time on Capitol Hill, sent me a great story today. Nova campaigns, Northern Virginia campaigns on Twitter. And they've got a picture of a woman here in pink because on Wednesdays they wear pink. They're mean girls, right? But it's a female person, presumably. The chair of the DC Water Board is not an engineer or a city planner. She goes by Dr. Unique Ann Morris Hughes. Doctor, not a doctor. Unique, not unique. Ann. Period. Morris hyphen Hughes. So you know you got a lefty on your hands right here. She's a DEI bureaucrat. She's a... runs a non-profit, which makes everybody a lot of profit, a nonprofit educator, a grant dispenser of taxpayer money, and former assistant head of a boys charter school. And isn't that amazing? And it's true. If you look at the maps, my friend Danny is sending me a thing. Maryland owns the whole river. He said, and it's true. If you look at the map, go to Google Earth or something. Look at the map. And Virginia owns about two feet. of water off the water's edge. And really the whole river belongs to Maryland. And this water purification, whatever, processing plant is all in Maryland. And when you're a Democrat, you just lie. You just lie about it. There's also a movement to reincorporate, you know, part of... The District Columbia used to cross the river long ago and be in Virginia. And then we decided in D.C. decades ago to give ages ago that Virginia side of D.C. over to Virginia. And so now we have a funny-shaped district of Columbia. It's better when it's a square. And there is a movement now to give the old part of Virginia that used to be the district, to give it back to the district. Take it from Virginia, give it back to the district, because that is a hot pocket. That's not a snack food of liberalism, Alexandria, Virginia, and Arlington, Virginia. And that's how the Democrats steal the governor's race and the Senate races with this pocket of Democrats just across the river from Washington, D.C. And a new movement to give D.C. back, give them back the piece of Virginia that was handed over. And then it'll cut the liberal voting population in half and could make Virginia a Republican state again.

The Democrats miss the Confederate days. The Confederacy, you know, the capital of the Confederacy was Richmond, Virginia, and now the Democrats' capital in Virginia is Richmond, Virginia, and they're not on our side. Yeah, but this funny thing on the D.C. Water Lady, who's not a doctor, whose first name is unique, followed by the initial N period, Morris-Hifon Hughes. Shouldn't it be junior or PhDED or something, something like that? Isn't it great? But this woman unique, she's in charge of the water for D.C. And that's not going very well. Not going well at all. But the question from Bammo, can you smell the Potomac River sewage from your house? The answer is no. The answer is no. I am. maybe not two miles up from the river, but more than one mile up from the river. And it's where this poop is being poured into the river by the Democrats. That's up in Maryland, which from where I am in D.C., where I live in D.C., where my best girl and I live in D.C., it's pretty far away from us. It's probably three miles or something away from us. And the river, I've been down by the river, and I didn't smell any Democrats. But that's, you know, that's an ongoing thing. Yes, it is. All right. So I've got that. I have. I've answered everything. I've answered everything. And I apologize for it. It's kind of a clumsy handling today of the mailbag. And I apologize for that for that. Let's go to Stephen Colbert. Stephen Colbert on CBS. He's an angry, bitter lefty. He's not happy unless he's not happy. You give him $14 million a year and limousines everywhere he goes and penthouse apartments and beach houses and helicopters. And still they're just miserable because it's their nature to be miserable. They don't want to be happy. Stephen Colbert on Monday night, very angry because he was inviting a Texas Democrat running for office, James Talarico, on his show. And the CBS network said, well, if you do that, you're going to have to have his competitor on because of FCC rules. And an angry Stephen Colbert lashed out. You know, who is not one of my guests tonight? Texas State Representative James Talarico. He was supposed to be here, but we were told in no uncertain terms by our network's lawyers. Listen how angry. How angry is. That we could not have him on the broadcast. That's not true. That's a lie. Well, they said you can have them, but because of equal time requirements under the FCC when you have a politician. And the funny thing is, the other politician he had to have on was a dumb Democrat, another dumb Democrat. Isn't that amazing? And so he only want to have a Democrat under no republic because he's a propagandist.

from the Nazi tradition. I just like calling everybody Nazis now. Stephen Colbert, and he's like, hey, we don't care about no stink and equal time. We don't need no badges. You might have heard of this thing called the Equal Time Rule. It's an old FCC rule that applies only to radio and broadcast television that says if a show has a candidate on during an election, they have to have all that candidate's opponents on as well. There's long been an exception for this rule, an exception for news interviews. and talk show interviews with politicians. Now, that's crucial. How else were voters supposed to know back in 92 that Bill Clinton sucked at saxophone? It's not all that he sucked at, but that's another discussion for another day. And that was an attempt at humor. But you hear the anger. He's lashing out. He's bitter. He's angry about it. And then he said to the head of the FCC, the Federal Communications Commission, these rules are put in place. So you're not filthy propaganda outlets for the Communist Party, which the Democrats are the... TV, late night, all of them attacking. Listen to this, the head of the FCC. Carr said he was thinking about dropping the exception for talk shows because he said some of them were motivated by partisan purposes. Well, sir, you're chairman of the FCC, so FCCU. Because I think you are motivated by partisan purposes yourself. No, that's not what's happening here. They're rabid political hacks. I'm not nearly as political as Stephen Colbert. I'm just not. And these people are paid tens of millions of dollars to do propaganda for the Democrat Party, and they assume the networks are just there for the picking. Stephen Colbert. And then he makes up a crazy lie. Oh, it's Trump. It must be Trump's fault. Like Trump has watched you in the last 20 years. Donald Trump's administration wants to silence anyone who says anything bad about Trump on TV. It's no surprise. The two of the people most affected by this threat are me and my friend Jimmy Kimmel. Carr defended it like this. If Kimmel or Stephen Colbert want to continue to do their programming and they don't want to have to comply with this requirement, then they can go to a cable channel or a podcast or a streaming service and that's fine. Great idea, man whose job is to regulate broadcast TV. Suggest everyone just leave broadcast TV. Well, he didn't suggest everybody leave broadcast TV. Maybe join the 21st century where media is moving. And, no, what he did was explain the long-standing FCC rules, which you ought to have been aware of since you've made $200 million doing Democrat Party propaganda. And, you know, it's not as politics. By the way, who did he just mention there? His close personal buddy, Jimmy Kimmel, who's headed to Los Angeles.
