The Senate Commerce Committee held its third hearing for Joe Biden’s far-left Federal Communications Commission (FCC) nominee Gigi Sohn on Tuesday, the first since Democrats expanded their Senate majority last fall. Biden first nominated her for the position in 2021 and renewed that nomination on Jan. 3.
The stakes are high for conservatives. Should the Senate confirm Sohn, she would give Democrats a 3-2 majority on the FCC panel.
A Democrat majority would mean unrelenting censorship of conservative voices, including revoking their license to broadcast. Sohn makes crystal clear this a primary objective of hers.

In addition to her virulent hostility toward conservative free speech, Sohn is the political equivalent of AOC. In June 2020, she liked a tweet from AOC calling for defunding the police and a month later expressed agreement that police in Portland were “armed goons” for defending their city against Antifa.
She also called President Trump a “white supremacist” who would “rather kill everybody than stop killing black people.”
Furthermore, Sohn has engaged in corrupt behavior. Last year while her nomination was pending, she made multiple donations to senators worth over a thousand dollars. This included senators who had been critical of her nomination.
This certainly has the appearance of bribery, no?
Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) laid out Sohn’s entire sordid character in a blistering opening statement:

During his questioning of Sohn, Cruz asked her if she believed it was poor judgement to give to these senators while her FCC nomination was pending, which no other nominee has ever done. She expressed no regret and dubiously claimed she was acting as a citizen who wanted to participate in democracy.
She should be investigated for perjury based on that statement.

The conservative movement must put all hands on deck to hand this dangerous, corrupt Marxist a third defeat. Our voices otherwise will grow quieter as a result.
