If the right has been pushing the agenda that the left is fascist and "someone" has to stop them sure. That is what the democrats have been feeding their voters during and after the election. "Trump is a facist", etc...

The right has been pushing that agenda since the days of the John Birch society. But there is a lot more evidence that Trump and his supporters are fascists than there is for the vast left-wing conspiracy of violence they think ordered a hit on Charlie Kirk (probably from Hunter Biden's laptop.)

Welp, it's looking like they aren't wrong.
Explain how you would react if Biden or Harris or somebody named Clinton said this, rather than Trump:
President Donald Trump on Thursday suggested that
networks should lose their broadcast licenses if
their on-air talent is critical of him. “They’re
giving me all this bad press, and they’re getting
a license,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force
One when asked if Federal Communications Commissioner
Brendan Carr should go after other talk show hosts after
Jimmy Kimmel was suspended from the air. “I would think
maybe their license should be taken away.” [1]
Congress and the courts can put a stop to this the easy way right now, or We The People can put a stop to it the hard way later. I know which path I'd prefer. What about you?1: https://www.politico.com/news/2025/09/18/trump-floats-stripp...
