Is The View Under FCC Attack? War With Iran? And Who Pays for Risky Rescue Missions?Is the federal government targeting The View?FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr says an enforcement action is underway after the show featured Democratic lawmaker James Talarico. But here’s the issue — there’s no equal-time violation. No rule broken. So what exactly is being enforced?Is this about media fairness… or political intimidation?At the same time, headlines are screaming that the United States is on the brink of war with Iran. Why now? What direct threat justifies escalation? And are Americans ready for another Middle East conflict?Plus — California’s deadliest avalanche in state history has claimed eight lives and cost massive rescue resources. But the group reportedly ventured out despite avalanche warnings. Should taxpayers repeatedly fund rescue operations when people ignore official alerts?
