Donald Trump's mission to take Seth Meyers off-air persists, and now he is getting a major backup.
In recent weeks, the president and the Late Night with Seth Meyers host have been locked in a back-and-forth feud. Meyers has mocked Trumps comments about aircraft carrier catapults and even weighed in on newly released emails alleging Trump's ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
Trump, in turn, has repeatedly called for the late-night presenter to be fired. Now, in a new move, FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr appears to be backing him.

In Trumps usual manner, he went off on his tirade about Meyers on his Truth Social platform. NBC's Seth Meyers is suffering from an incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS), the president blasted before further ridiculing the comedian.

Trump's renewed push comes days after Meyers discussed the newly released Epstein emails that mentioned the president. As The Blast reported, the TV personality suggested the emails didn't raise new questions but rather confirmed long-standing suspicions about the 79-year-olds involvement with Epstein.

He joked that if investigators were wondering whether the U.S leader knew about the underage victims, and an email from Epstein directly said he did, that
would be pretty d-mning.
The former SNL writer likened it to a murder case where police find both the murder weapon and a confession note, but the suspect still doesn't have a solid alibi. He ended by mocking a description of Trump as a dog that hasn't barked, saying that since 2011, Trump has done nothing but bark and growl.

(26,498 posts)And I predict NBC will face major backlash like ABC did with Jimmy Kimmel. With Jimmy and Stephen punching back hard at him tonight. And also the DailyShow will be pushing back. This still is a country that has a constitution right of free speech ! The orange turd is song what Putin did in Russia to comedians.
