Jimmy Kimmel
Yesterday, Trump was threatening a reporter. Today, he coerced ABC to kick Kimmel off the air.
He's also suing NYT & WSJ for reporting the truth. And it's not just media: he's threatening private companies, colleges, Congressβeveryone.
Enough. NONE OF US should cave. We ALL need to push back.
People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who donβt toe a party line on what is βallowedβ to be expressed. And employers are going along. Itβs the new secret police

Now DHS is threatening legal action against CNN and wants to prosecute the appβs creator.

Any Democrat that votes to break this filibuster should be shamed so vigorously they donβt want to step foot inside the Capitol building ever again.
Do not be weak. Do not be cowards. This is exactly the time to fight back.

The Trump administrationβs detention of Mahmoud Khalil β a green card holder studying in this country legally β is targeted, retaliatory, and an extreme attack on his First Amendment rights.

A poster for the economic blackout on February 28. It is a big red Jack rabbit on an aqua blue back ground. It says economic blackout in hand done black type. There are two black speech bubbles. One says βdonβt buy stuff Friday February 28th. The other says we have power. Below it says No Amazon, Walmart, target, gas food, gas. Below that it says OK small business, use cash. Designed by Martha Rich.

Remember they want you scared. They are desperately trying to terrify us into submission.
Federal employees? Yep.
Opposition? Yep.
Their own Congress? Yep.
Figure out what you stand for and stand the fuck up for it.
Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
