Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK) lambasted Joe Biden’s far-left nominee for FCC commissioner, Gigi Sohn, at her second hearing today for her record of partisan attacks on Republicans. This is the second nomination hearing for Sohn, whose nomination has caused controversy due to radical statements she has made in the past, and alleged conflicts of interest.
Joe Biden’s embattled FCC nominee Gigi Sohn, whose nomination is already struggling on account of her partisan, pro-censorship record, is tied to a far-left “digital rights” activist who once campaigned on behalf of an al-Qaeda terrorist who was convicted for conspiring to kill Americans.
The Biden administration’s nomination of the far-left progressive activist Gigi Sohn to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), a powerful federal agency that oversees internet and telecommunications regulation is struggling, according to reports. The news comes as One America News (OAN) walks back its support for Sohn, with network founder Robert Herring saying: “She shouldn’t be anywhere near the FCC as far as I’m concerned.”
One America News (OAN) and Newsmax are backing Joe Biden’s far-left, radical pick for FCC commissioner, Gigi Sohn, despite the fact that she and the organization she co-founded have called for the blacklisting of conservative broadcasters — including OAN.

In addition to Alvaro Bedoya, the George Soros linked, pro-illegal immigration professor that Biden has selected as his nominee for FTC commissioner, the Biden administration also wants the pro-censorship radical Gigi Sohn to serve on the Federal Communications Committee (FCC).
