Biden FCC nominee's reputation as hard left partisan alarms Republicans
Fox News
Gigi Sohn, one of President Biden's nominees to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is raising alarms among congressional Republicans, who point to her reputation as a hard left partisan.
Sohn has called on the FCC to "look at whether" Sinclair Broadcast, which is known as a conservative-leaning company, "is qualified to be a broadcast licensee at all." She ridiculed Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh as an "angry white man" during his confirmation hearings.
She has also donated roughly $30,000 to Democrats over the last two decades, including $6,675 to Obama for America and Obama Victory Fund, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) records. She also donated almost $5,000 to President Biden’s 2020 campaign and $1,861 to Hillary Clinton’s failed 2016 presidential campaign.
