FCC chair Brendan Carr has threatened to revoke broadcasters’ licences for their coverage of the US-Israel war with Iran, drawing criticism from Democratic lawmakers who called the move unconstitutional.

• Brendan Carr stated that broadcast licenses are not a "property right" and can be revoked if stations do not serve the public interest.
• The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is the broadcast media watchdog.
• Democratic lawmakers, including Senator Elizabeth Warren and Governor Gavin Newsom, condemned the threats as unconstitutional and an overreach of government power.
