President Trump Calls FCC Chair ‘American Patriot’ After Kimmel Suspension
Donald Trump
FCC Chairman Is an ‘American Patriot!’
Published
President Donald Trump has nothing but praises to sing for FCC Chair Brendan Carr after Carr pressured ABC, leading to the network’s indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel‘s late-night TV show following the host’s remarks about Charlie Kirk‘s shooting suspect.
Check out Trump’s chat with reporters in the White House Oval Office Friday … he’s exuding pride as he calls Carr an “incredible American patriot with courage.”
He then takes a dig at unnamed networks for being dishonest, bringing up “the old days” when networks would need to get relicensed each year — and only could do so by showing “honesty and integrity.” The Federal Communications Commission currently renews licenses on 8-year terms.
When a reporter asks the prez if he believes Carr should have the right to revoke licenses, he doubles down and says … “I think Brendan Carr doesn’t like to see the airwaves be used illegally and incorrectly and purposely horribly.”

As you know, there’s quite a lot of discourse about Jimmy’s indefinite suspension after he opined on-air on the MAGA movement’s reaction to the shooting suspect in the murder of Charlie Kirk.
Many of the talk show host’s peers came to his defense … though plenty of people are siding with the FCC.

On the other hand, TMZ caught up with North Carolina U.S. Rep. Pat Harrigan Friday, who thinks the FCC may have crossed the line … but said he thinks Jimmy did as well.
There’s no word from Jimmy yet about his suspension … but we saw him smiling in Los Angeles Thursday afternoon — the same day loading trucks were spotted outside his studio.
Anthony Geary, who famously played Luke Spencer on “General Hospital,” is dead … TMZ has confirmed.
The soap opera star died Sunday in Amsterdam … according to a family member.
Anthony’s official cause of death is unclear, but there are reports he died as a result of complications from a planned surgery in Amsterdam.
Anthony won eight Daytime Emmy Awards and is mostly known for his role on “General Hospital” … though he also made appearances on “The Partridge Family,” “The Mod Squad,” “All in the Family” and “The Young and the Restless.”
On “General Hospital,” Anthony and Genie Francis became the signature couple among soap operas … and when their characters got married in 1981, a whopping 30 million people tuned in for the TV nuptials, with Hollywood icon Elizabeth Taylor — a huge ‘GH’ fan — making a cameo.
Anthony was born in Utah and raised by Mormon parents. He earned a theater scholarship to the University of Utah and got his career started as a stage actor before moving to Los Angeles in the 1970s and getting into Hollywood.
Anthony was 78.
RIP
Bill Belichick continues to be the base to Jordon Hudson‘s flyer … as the 73-year-old was spotted cheering on his 24-year-old girlfriend at a competition in Atlanta over the weekend.
TMZ Sports obtained photos of the couple looking happier than ever on Sunday. Belichick — rocking a buttoned shirt and a Navy submarine hat — was seen alongside Jordon, who was all dolled up in her cheerleading uniform.
Hudson once again suited up for Code Black … who she competed for last month at a Cheer Extreme All-Stars event in Raleigh.
Seemingly, Belichick is paying his dues after Hudson was right by his side during his first year as the University of North Carolina head football coach. As you know … it was a tough go for the eight-time Super Bowl Champion — who went 4-8 and missed out on getting a bowl game.
She shared a carousel of photos in a recap after the team played their last home game — a 32-25 loss to Duke — all while taking a swipe at her critics.
“I’ve loved supporting @billbelichick at his adult all-male football league competitions this season,” Hudson wrote. “Until next year, Kenan!”

BB’s first season was also marked with tons of drama off the field. Hudson has found herself in a feud with investigative journalist Pablo Torre … even claiming she planned to sue him — which came after he spent the last few months diving into the couple’s romance.
But for now, the two have the offseason to reset and recharge before the next college football campaign, and it seems like Belichick will have to carve out some time to catch a few more cheerleading events!
Nick Reiner — the son of Rob and Michele Reiner, who’s been arrested on suspicion of murdering them — was missing for hours after his parents were found with their throats slit inside their Brentwood home … TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources say … after Rob and Michele’s daughter Romy found their bodies, she noted to police Nick had been living there and was possibly behind the murders.
When police responded to a call for a death investigation around 3:40 PM Sunday, Nick was nowhere to be found. Romy was the one who called 911 and told police her brother was “dangerous” and should be considered a suspect.
KNN News
Romy told police Nick was not there when she arrived, insinuating he fled the scene. Police finally located and arrested Nick at approximately 9:15 PM Sunday.
Nick is currently in police custody, held without bail.
