Donald Trump called on Netflix to fire board member Susan Rice or \u201cpay the consequences,\u201d after she said that Democrats would take action against corporations that \u201ctake a knee\u201d to the president.<\/p>\n

\n

Rice, who was former President Barack Obama\u2019s national security adviser and United Nations ambassador and also served in Joe Biden\u2019s White House, said on a podcast that corporations, news organizations and law firms that went along with Trump\u2019s demands for loyalty now see their actions were unpopular.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re going to be held accountable\u201d if Democrats return to power, she said. \u201cIf they think Democrats are going to play by the old rules, they\u2019ve got another thing coming.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rice rejoined Netflix\u2019s board in 2023 after leaving the Biden administration. Netflix is in a bidding war with Paramount Skydance Corp. to buy Warner Bros Discovery Inc.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump didn\u2019t specify in\u00a0his social media post\u00a0what \u201cconsequences\u201d the streaming giant might face, but Trump has criticized other networks for content he doesn\u2019t like and Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr has threatened networks\u2019 broadcast licenses.<\/p>\n

Netflix didn\u2019t immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
