Carr warned that local affiliates for ABC and Comcast must uphold public interest obligations or face significant fines and license revocations for news distortion. The move comes as Disney faces a massive subscriber boycott and declining late-night ratings, with critics like Senator Rand Paul questioning the use of federal agencies to target specific media networks. In the United Kingdom, commentator Katie Hopkins was arrested for online communications while police conducted home visits to investigate upsetting social media posts. Back in the United States, the Trump administration announced a $100,000 H-1B visa fee hike to protect domestic labor and introduced the Trump Gold Card program for expedited residency. Meanwhile, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. influenced a CDC vaccine advisory panel in Atlanta to narrow COVID-19 booster recommendations and address seizure risks associated with the MMRV shot. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth also implemented new Pentagon credentialing rules, requiring journalists to sign non-disclosure pledges for unclassified information. NASA’s reliance on ham radio volunteers for the Artemis 2 mission drew skepticism from Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak, who questioned the technical necessity of amateur operators for a multi-billion dollar lunar project. The duo also explored the "demon filter" audio isolation of Anna Navarro and the irony of Governor Gavin Newsom banning masks for ICE agents. The episode concludes with a knighting ceremony for Sir Joseph, Lord of the Central Jersey Swamps, and a wine tip regarding Costco’s Moscato D’Asti. ## Chapters Each chapter's transcript is at its own link.
