Overview
- Trump posted on Truth Social that Netflix should remove board member Susan Rice immediately or face unspecified consequences.
- Rice said on Preet Bharara’s podcast that companies, news organizations, and law firms that met Trump loyalty demands would be held accountable if Democrats return to power.
- Trump amplified a post from influencer Laura Loomer, who urged action against Netflix and called to block a Netflix–Warner Bros. deal, according to reporting cited from the Financial Times.
- Netflix did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Trump’s demand or Rice’s remarks.
- Coverage notes the Warner Bros. Discovery sale process remains active, with the Financial Times reporting Warner reopened talks with Paramount Skydance and set a Monday deadline for a best-and-final offer to top Netflix’s $83 billion agreement, and any deal would require federal approval with past FCC pressure cited as context.
