During a Senate hearing, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr stumbled through basic questions about whether his agency is truly independent—or simply answers to Donald Trump. As senators pressed him on presidential pressure, media regulation, and who really calls the shots, Carr dodged, deflected, and quietly oversaw the removal of the word “independent” from the FCC’s own mission statement. The exchange revealed far more than a bad hearing performance—it exposed how deeply Trump’s influence may be reshaping institutions meant to stand on their own.
