From Fox Business: Brendan Carr, a top Republican and current Federal Communications Commission (FCC) commissioner, wants to align as much with President-elect Donald Trump’s agenda as possible before taking over the agency’s lead seat.
“Step one for me is to make sure I continue to work with President Trump and his team over the coming weeks as the transition is complete,” Carr told FOX Business’ Maria Bartiromo on “Mornings with Maria” Monday.
“I want to make sure that I understand, 100%, President Trump’s agenda, after all, when it comes to his administration,” he continued. “The American people voted for him and voted for his agenda.”
Last week, Trump tapped Carr for FCC chair, calling him a “warrior for free speech” and saying that Carr can end the regulatory onslaught on America’s job creators and innovators, and deliver for rural America.
Carr shared the top priorities he wanted to focus on in his new role:
- Smashing the censorship ‘cartel’
- Media: “there’s a lot the FCC can do there to make sure that broadcasters are, in fact, serving the public interest.”
- Unleashing economic opportunity, implementing permitting reform
- National security and cybersecurity threats
Bartiromo asked Carr, “Will Soros still be able to acquire those 200 radio stations?”
“There’s a petition for reconsideration pending at the FCC right now, and I want to take a very hard look at that,” he replied.
