ABC Pulls β€˜Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ Indefinitely After Host’s Charlie Kirk Comments Nexstar, one of the biggest owners of US TV stations, said will preempt Jimmy Kimmel's late night show due to the host's Charlie Kirk remarks.

Freedom of expression is critical to the health of our democracy.

ABC and Nexstar's decision to capitulate to the Trump administration's demands threaten our First Amendment rights.

What’s at stake here is free speech.

Across the board, we’ve seen the Trump administration use the power of government to go after anybody who’s criticized them β€” and in this case, Jimmy Kimmel.

We need to all stand up and speak out.

It’s that time of year again. Back to school for the kids.

A group of 6 LCC K9 comfort dogs arrived in Minneapolis yesterday in the wake of the latest mass shooting. The organization deploys comfort dogs following tragic events. The dogs wore their "please pet me vests," offering love and comfort to those processing this heartbreaking tragedy. 15/10 for all

You should be mad about the FBI raiding John Bolton’s house not because you love John Bolton but because you’re opposed to Trump using the FBI to intimidate his critics

BREAKING: Trump says he’s firing the head of the Bureau of Labor Statisticsβ€”because he doesn’t like the latest jobs report and revisions showing his cratering economy. The numbers were bad, so naturally, he’s blaming someone else and demanding loyalty over accuracy.

The financial economy is immersed in the kind of wild gambling we saw leading up to the 2008 financial crisis.Β 

We’re seeing it all over again β€” this time with crypto, meme stocks, junk bonds, and investors pumping up shares of AI stocks without knowing what it is.

Be warned.

This is in dead-red Florida.

Hurricane season is starting.

Veteran weatherman John Morales is rightly concerned that federal cuts to NOAA and the National Weather Service means we’re flying blind into the storm β€” literally β€” and people are at mortal risk.

Thank you for your courage, John.

Harvard will sue Trump administration to protect international students The lawsuit will challenge the Department of Homeland Security’s abrupt revocation of the university’s ability to enroll foreign students.

A major escalation of the ongoing weaponization of the federal government against institutions that are deemed insufficiently obedient.

This isn't about Harvard, specifically: This is an authoritarian regime weaponizing the state to force civil society institutions into submission.

Administration bars Harvard from enrolling foreign students, says thousands must transfer to colleges that complied or be removed from the country.

Trump Administration Halts Harvard’s Ability to Enroll International Students

This intolerable attack on Harvard’s independence and academic freedom is plainly government retaliation for Harvard’s speech standing up for itself and the rule of law. America must rally to the side of Harvard and its students in court, in Congress and in our communities.

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves β€” strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security β€” we would likely consider it an act of war.
