On Sunday, President Donald Trump announced Federal Communications Commissioner Brendan Carr will be the new Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).<\/p>\n

Carr, the senior Republican at the FCC, has been a strong advocate for protecting Free Speech and fighting regulatory overreach.<\/p>\n

President Trump shared the news on Truth Social, saying,<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI am pleased to announce that Commissioner Brandon Carr will be the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Commissioner Carr currently serves as a senior Republican on the FCC. Before that, he was the agency\u2019s General Counsel. I first nominated Commissioner Carr to the FCC in 2017, and he has been confirmed unanimously by the United States Senate three times. His current term runs through 2029 and, because of his great work, I will not be designating him as permanent Chairman.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCommissioner Carr is a warrior for Free Speech, and has fought against the regulatory Lawfare that has stifled Americans\u2019 Freedoms, and held back our Economy. He will end the regulatory onslaught that has been crippling Americas\u2019 Job Creators and Innovators, and ensure that the FCC delivers for rural America.\u201d<\/p>\n

Commissioner Carr has served at the FCC since 2012, including as an advisor to then FCC Chairman Ajit Pai. Earlier in his career, Commissioner Carr worked as an attorney specializing in a Appellate, Litigation, and Regulatory Matters. Previously Commissioner Carr clerked on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit for Judge Dennis Shedd.. After attending Georgetown University for his undergrad, commissioner car earned his J.D. Magna Cum Laude from the Catholic University of America\u2019s Columbus School of Law where he served as an Editor of the Catholic University Law Review. Congratulations to Chairman Brandon Carr on a job well done. Lead us into a great future, Brandon!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On Friday Brendan Carr sent a letter to the tech giants<\/a> \u2013 Meta, Google, Microsoft and Apple and called out the companies on the central roles their companies have played in the censorship cartel.<\/p>\n

The four page letter calls out the tech giants Facebook, Apple, Google, and Microsoft for participating in what he describes as \u201cimproper conduct.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carr wrote, \u201cBig Tech companies silenced Americans for doing nothing more than exercising their First Amendment rights.\u201d Carr accused the tech giants of \u201cworking in concert with so-called media monitors and others \u2013 to defund, demonetize and otherwise put out of business news outlets and organizations that dared to deviate from an approved narrative.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carr also pointed out how the tech giants were \u201cparticipating in a censorship cartel that included not only technology and social media companies but advertising, marketing, and so-called \u201cfact-checking\u201d organizations as well as the Biden-Harris administration itself.\u201d <\/p>\n

Brendan Carr is serious about defending the First Amendment for Americans.<\/p>\n

Carr shared his appreciation on X to President Trump for the promotion.<\/p>\n

\n

Thank you, President Trump!<\/p>\n

I am humbled and honored to serve as Chairman of the FCC.<\/p>\n
