Brendan Carr, FCC chair, may actually be more of a clown than Hegseth, but without the missiles and stuff.

I particularly like that not only is he threatening to revoke broadcasters’ licenses based on news coverage he dislikes (something he’s explicitly not allowed to do), but that he’s using as an example a newspaper story he didn’t like (newspapers aren’t licensed by the FCC).

We need a website with clown ratings for all of the cabinet members based on things they've said.

The US needs to stop thinking of them as clowns.

They are part of a very serious and well orchestrated attempt to destroy democracy worldwide(yours/mine/ours) and replace it with a feudal system of government. Each of those folks are playing their assigned roles.

The question that the US should be focused on is; who is the puppet master? The person they hired/elected is clearly not the one making the decisions.
