It’s not hypothetical at all. The FCC is currently being used for political attacks: https://www.cnn.com/2026/05/28/media/abc-fcc-disney-licenses...

Those who are under attack happen to also be the biggest copyrighter holders, so this would open up a new avenue of attack.

It's not hypothetical nor an unintended consequence. Most likely this is the point

Conversely you're already not dealing with that, so the letter and spirit of the law are both being ignored and the American voter doesn't care.
