🚨Trump PANICS as Disney Files Lawsuit After He Attacked On Jimmy Kimmel
ABC and Disney are now openly fighting back against the Trump-era FCC over what they call attacks on free speech and political criticism.

The controversy started after comedian Jimmy Kimmel made a joke about Melania Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. President Donald Trump responded by demanding Kimmel be fired, and FCC Chairman Brendan Carr reportedly signaled possible action against ABC’s broadcast licenses.

Disney briefly suspended Kimmel, but public backlash was massive. Ratings increased, advertisers stayed, and Disney restored him within days. That moment became a turning point. Disney realized that giving in to political pressure only encourages more attacks.

Now the FCC is targeting The View using the “equal time rule,” claiming the show may not qualify for long-standing exemptions that protect talk shows and news programs from having to give equal airtime to every political candidate. Legal experts say those exemptions have existed for decades and are essential for political journalism to function.
Disney hired top conservative constitutional lawyer Paul Clement to fight back.

In a major legal filing on May 8, 2026, Clement argued that the FCC is abusing its regulatory power to punish political speech it dislikes. He warned that the FCC’s actions could create a “chilling effect,” causing networks to censor themselves out of fear of losing broadcast licenses.

The filing says this threatens core First Amendment protections, especially with the 2026 midterm elections approaching. Critics argue that if the government can pressure networks over jokes or political criticism, it could discourage TV shows from covering politics at all.
The broader concern is that the FCC’s actions are part of a wider pattern: using government
