(Washington) Donald Trump announced on Sunday the appointment, as head of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), of Brendan Carr, whom he described as a “free speech warrior”.

He is “a warrior for freedom of expression,” said Donald Trump in the press release announcing this appointment. Brendan Carr reacted on Sunday evening on expression of the Americans.
Brendan Carr has worked at the FCC since 2012. He has been one of the commissioners since 2017, appointed to the position by Donald Trump during his first term. He had previously worked as a lawyer specializing in regulatory issues.
“He will end the regulatory assault that has paralyzed American job creators and innovators, and ensure that the FCC meets the expectations of rural America,” said Donald Trump.
Brendan Carr also benefited from the support of Elon Musk, whom Donald Trump appointed to head a commission for “government efficiency”. He had in fact opposed a decision by the FCC to withdraw a major subsidy from Starlink, one of Mr. Musk’s companies, recalls the New York Times.
“In my opinion, this is nothing other than a regulatory retaliation measure against one of the main targets of the left: Mr. Musk,” he wrote in an article published in the Wall Street Journal on October 14.
Brendan Carr is also the author of the telecommunications chapter of “Project 2025”, a nearly 900-page document developed by the conservative think tank Heritage Foundation, and road map for the overhaul of the federal state under Donald Trump .
“The FCC must change course” and “achieve four main goals: regain control of Big Tech, promote national security, unleash economic prosperity, and ensure accountability and good governance of the FCC,” he wrote.
