Republican senators and members of congress, along with former President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, are taking AT&T’s DirecTV platform to task for kicking off the conservative news channel Newsmax.

U.S. Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX), incoming Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, Lindsey Graham (R-SC), incoming Ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Mike Lee (R-UT), and Tom Cotton (R-AR) today sent a letter to the CEOs of DirectTV and its controlling shareholders, AT&T and TPG, demanding more information about its decision to blacklist Newsmax.

The letter notes DirecTV’s deplatforming of One America News last year, which came following pressure from Democrat members of the House Energy & Commerce Committee, which oversees the FCC.
