>>Yes Trump's FCC threats over Jimmy Kimmel were also wrong, but he didn't have a government agency doing it to citizens.
so in this sentence do you think the FCC isn't a government agency or that Jimmy Kimmel isn't a citizen?

The great sin of Trump's FCC was a single ill-advised tweet by FCC chair Brendan Carr... in which he threatened to enforce the law as written. For comparison, the Biden admin's FBI actively engaged in purely political media manipulation in service of the sitting president's campaign, such as when they lied to Facebook (and presumably others) to "prebunk" the Hunter's Laptop story, which directly lead to a near-total ban of a factual news story.
Let's not even talk about all the other rhetoric of arresting and even killing people who voiced different opinions coming from the current regime.
How are the actions of the Perry County Police Department relevant to this conversation?

Hysterical nonsense.
It was more that a tweet no, but an interview with Benny johnson, an avowed political figure paid by Russians at one point?
You're harping on a detail that hardly matters in order to avoid the broader point, which is rather silly. The FCC is a government agency. Brendan Carr made an ill-advised tweet, which doesn't hold a candle to Biden's use of the FBI to spread misinformation and induce censorship for political purposes.
> or that their political pursuit of one of trump's "enemies" isn't actually political.
Of course it's political. It's political when both sides do it.
> ...paid by Russians at one point
Ah, I see that I'm wasting my time here.
When you're ignoring the comment talking about people arrested for criticizing a political pundit to argue about minutae and claiming "both sides are bad", yes.
