Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr, testifying Wednesday before a Senate committee, said the regulatory body is not an independent government agency — a position that counters his previous public statements and the office’s own website.
In an exchange with Sen. Ben Ray Luján, D-N.M., Carr said the FCC is “not formally an independent agency” because, he said, commissioners can be removed by the president.
Another malicious, unprincipled, and unfit for public service official. Drain the swamp indeed, Trump expanded it.
He drained it and filled it with even more toxic sludge.
Maybe not, fucktard, but it SHOULD be.
Commissioners can be removed, but what is needed for them to be replaced, hm? Is it only the president? Also they can be impeached so not even that is solely the president’s decision.
