Feels like a pretty straightforward violation of the First Amendment as if that matters.

This is the story:

President Donald Trump on Thursday suggested that networks should lose their broadcast licenses if their on-air talent is critical of him.
“They’re giving me all this bad press, and they’re getting a license,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One when asked if Federal Communications Commissioner Brendan Carr should go after other talk show hosts after Jimmy Kimmel was suspended from the air. “I would think maybe their license should be taken away.”

An update from @andrew-wiebe.bsky.social on a potential new Chief Soccer Officer for #SportingKC

Jimmy Mack @jcmack03.bsky.social · Sep 8

So the ref blows for a corner kick for #SportingKC, Austin stands in front of the ball to prevent the kick, and then the ref blows the whistle for full time.

1-2, final score.

I've never seen that before in my life. Unbelievable.

Jimmy Mack @jcmack03.bsky.social · Sep 8

Dejan had a golden opportunity but can't convert. That's probably #SportingKC's last chance.

Jimmy Mack @jcmack03.bsky.social · Sep 8

Austin forward CJ Fodrey's header off a set piece gives them the 82nd minute lead in front of the Cauldron. Diego Rubio then turns to taunt the fans that had moments earlier just been chanting "Sporting Reject" at him. #SportingKC

Austin off the cross bar for what would have been a go-ahead goal in the 74th minute. #SportingKC

Jimmy Mack @jcmack03.bsky.social · Sep 8

HT: 1-1

#SportingKC jump out to an early lead but can't maintain it through the half.

Jimmy Mack @jcmack03.bsky.social · Sep 7

Austin tie it up on the counter in the 37th minute. Owen Wolff finishes the equalizer after a lovely first touch creates space between him and both Leibold and Voloder. #SportingKC

Joveljic steps to the spot and scores with ease after sending the Austin keeper the wrong way. #SportingKC lead 1-0 in the 17th minute.

Jimmy Mack @jcmack03.bsky.social · Sep 7

After video review a penalty is awarded to #SportingKC for the foul on Shapi in the box. I'm honestly a little surpised given the lack of overturned calls that seemed more obvious in games past.

What do I know lol. VAR signals for futher review to the head referee. We shall see. #SportingKC

Shouts for a PK by the #SportingKC crowd but upon replay the contact looked pretty minimal. Don't think that one is going to be reviewed.

Leibold with a shot from distance almost puts #SportingKC ahead early but it glances off the post.
