An FCC commissioner slammed Trump's executive order on social media, calling it an attempt to turn the FCC into 'the President's speech police'

"This does not work. Social media can be frustrating. But an Executive Order that would turn the Federal Communications Commission into the President's speech police is not the answer," she said. "It's time for those in Washington to speak up for the First Amendment. History won't be kind to silence."

Meanwhile, Republican FCC commissioner Brendan Carr voiced support for the executive order in an interview with"I think given what we've seen over the last few weeks, it makes sense to let the public weigh-in and say 'is that really what Congress meant' when they passed and provided those special protections," Carr said.

Commissioner Mike O'Rielly, another Republican, said on Twitter that he sees both sides of the debate and urged his followers to "take [a] deep breath."

AllensVoice FUCKTRUMP FCC Commissioner approved message on free speech.🙂👋

FCC should work for America, not German communists.

Baby Trump is president not king or Putin as he would like to be.

That's good. He will probably get fired though. The anti liberal bias of the president is going to get people killed eventually

America, just in case you missed it: THIS POTUS is exactly what an authoritarian looks like. You are (have) been looking into the eyes of an authoritarian for more than 3 1/2 years. He wants to regulate your speech and ideas!

You do know that censorship is taking something down, right?

FCC when they saw Trump’s executive order...
