joining us is the former fcc chair, now a partner at searchlight capital.k toward the end of your first -- well, when you were chair and the end of the last trump administration. where do you stand on it this time? do you think it's appropriate? >> well, i think the supreme court is weighing some of the same national security considerations and free speech considerations that animated congress in the first place to pass the law. that law, as you know, was itself predicated on president trump's august 2020 executive order in which he said this was a national emergency, that this issue deserved attention. and so i think we saw the supreme court, really serious consideration of the national security considerations involved in bytedance, a chinese-owned corporation, potentially controlling some of the data of u.s. users of tiktok. >> i mean, obviously, they were weighing the free speech implications. many who listened to the arguments believe they were coming down more in favor of the national security considerations. we'll have to wait and see. meanwhile, your

we will still likely hear more from the fcc, brendan mccarty, the incoming chairman, is outspoken one of fairness in the media. that will be sort of the final hurdle for paramount. katie: tbd what happens there. paramount shares fell 29% last year and haven't posted a positive year since 2016. so, some good news is needed for that company, so we will see. talking about the vox office while we have you, there is frustration out there that you are well familiar with, that it is nothing original anymore, just all sequels and the imaginations of old movies. are we expecting more of the same in 2025? >> yes and no. there will certainly be a lot of sequels. mission impossible, captain america, avatar. there are a bunch of movies coming out, f1, for example, that won't resonate until you start to see the ads, but original movies from all tour directors who may stand out. that is why the analysts think that this year will be better than last year. still not back to pre-pandemic levels, but you know, potentially the best year for the vox office since pandemic. tim: you say still not back to.

primarily on things like deregulation, like placing a top uh government institutions like the like the fcc, which is really what the cost of the mosque and the tech browsers. the now lining out to support from really want to see happening. and of course a, there's a very important instrument for him to do a lot of the things that he had promised and that instrument is called executive order. can you elaborate on that, please? yes i and in the us passing legislation, getting it through by the time, is it congress by the house and the senate can take a lot of time can be a very time consuming process. even though the republicans have majorities in by chambers getting legislation through in this way is really time consuming. what we've seen in american politics really since the obama presidency. is that for this huge expansion of the use of executive orders, now executive orders of things that the president can do that don't need to go through congress. now that doesn't mean that they're a little kind of weaker and that they can be on donald a little easier on, but certainly i think, um, so y

i wanted you to listen to the fcc chairman on dei and federal agencies. he said this today. >> people would be shocked if they learn how much dei had been embedded in agencies. at the fcc we were spending millions and millions of dollars promoting it. thanks to president trump's leadership does ending and we are getting things turned around, focusing on our core mission of connecting americans. >> trace: is he right, is it over? >> i think dei is effectively over on a legal basis. what congress has to do next is a have to defund institutions that are still peddling dei, institutions like colleges. they have to go after the endowments, they have to go after the hospitals, they have to take away nih funding from colleges and universities that still continue to house dei offices. while federal contractors are now banned from dei, it needs to be extended. congress now has to pass a measure denying funding to those entities that continue to push for those things. >> trace: congresswoman says dei is the very definition of government efficiency. watch. >> when t

we saw the incoming head of the fcc kind of applauding this announcement today. >> right. there's been a lot of blame cast by the right for donald trump's loss in 2020 election on this. there has been blame through the covid pandemic. mark zuckerberg just this last august wrote a letter to house republicans saying that meta was pressured by the biden administration for trying to combat misinformation and i think we should be very clear here there is somebody who worked for the trump campaign that said in a post today after this announcement from meta that he had met with joe kaplan, the global affairs director for meta, about this very thing and there's been no political operation led by a candidate who has used the internet and the social media platforms for derogatory means and to push false information to advance their own political agenda than this trump campaign of 2024. so for them it is an acknowledgment and recognition from their eyes that they were not in the wrong these last years, but instead that this is a moment months after donald trump threatened to put mark

maybe maybe go back to fcc regulations that were there before clinton destroyed all your local journalism that used to prosper across the united states as well. i think, you know, when trump got elected he, there was this incredible moment where he, he thanked a long list of pod cas that had been instrumental in spreading his campaign message . and that was a really amazing moment because it, it spoke to the almost total evidence of the so called traditional media in this country. they were really not a factor if trunk tries to crack down in any way on cbs or, you know, get their license yang because of the shenanigans with some of the editing and in the come all harris interview. i think you'd be making a mistake because legacy media in america is basically that we saw after this election, but they were unable to process the fact that so much of this country was voting against them that they had lost trust in them. there was an incredible thing that happened were uh, you know, abc is jimmy kimball, a comedian, rolled his eyes and told the joke about how ridiculous it was that there was s
