I do want to talk about ABC's decision this week to suspend Jimmy Kimmel's late night show after, of course, he was criticized for comments he made in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination. And hours after the FCC chairman, Brendan Carr said this. Take a look.I mean, look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. these companies can find ways to change conduct to take action frankly uh on Kimmel or you know there's going to be additional work for the FCC ahead. Senator, do you believe that Brendan Ca ...

We begin with growing Republican opposition to the Trump administration's efforts to silence dissenting voices. Now, Senator Ted Cruz is blasting the FCC chair for threats he made related to ABC suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live. Look, I like Brendan Carr. He's a good guy. He's the chairman of the FCC. I work closely with him. But what he said there is dangerous as hell. And and I got to say, he he he he threatens it. He says, "We can do this the easy way or we can do this the hard way. " Yeah. And and I gott ...

Good evening from New York. I'm Chris Hayes. Donald Trump's administration has been attacking free expression since he got back into office, threatening critics with prosecution, targeting colleges and law firms, deporting protesters or student oped writers or putting them into detention who are here on legal visas for the views they expressed and then arresting people who protest the deportations.None of it's been particularly popular. The White House's latest overreach appears to have ignited an angry nat ...

And here with me in studio, New York Times reporter Jeremy Peters. And by the way, Sam and Jeremy are MSNBC contributors. Well, that was a chuckle certainly. Uh, but let's start with Sam on what we heard the president say. And I want to combine that with what we heard from FCC Chairman Brendan Carr on Thursday. Her ...

You might have heard that on Monday, Jimmy Kimmel made a joke about slain right-wing activist Charlie Kirk and Disney and ABC pulled his show. You might have heard less about the man really behind it, FCC chair Brenton Carr. The FCC is typically in charge of things like making sure Americans have good broadband, but Carr really has one mission.Making sure nobody makes fun of his friends. On Monday, he heard Kimmel say this, which isn't really even about Kirk. We hit some new lows over the weekend with the M ...

And now joining us for more on it is House Minority Whip, Congresswoman Katherryn Clark of Massachusetts. Congresswoman, thank you for taking the time. Let's start with the funding fight. The House voting this morning on that short-term plan to keep the government running. Democrats are against that plan as Michael just laid out, but what's your leverage? Listen, Anna, it is good to be with you and we are minutes away from this vote being called and this is going to be a close vote, but it is not a close ca ...
