New PEN America statement: “The firing and suspension of multiple journalists after the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk should alarm anyone who cares about free speech and a free press. Taken together, these measures risk creating a chilling effect that extends beyond those directly targeted..."

This kind of divisive rhetoric is beneath the dignity of the office of the Vice President of the United States.

The Vice President’s claim also isn’t backed by evidence. In fact, most data points in the opposite direction.

All hail VICTOR!!! He's a real-life hero whose selflessness & courage is an inspiration to us all.

Wishing you a complete & speedy recovery.

I salute you, sir! 🫡

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

Platner: I think Collins has tried to create this charade in which she’s always the moderate voice in the room. But that’s nonsense, and everybody knows it’s nonsense.

Susan Collins does not represent the interests of working Mainers

What is Kash Patel doing? Why is he going on national television discussing crime scene evidence (!!!) and bragging about the FBI’s brutal interrogation skills (!!!!!)?

Am I allowed to criticize his very obvious bungling of Charlie Kirk’s murder investigation, or is that illegal now too

So let me get this straight: the purpose of legacy media now, is to venerate Trump, white supremacy and Christian nationalism (and also Israel…) and any journalist of color who doesn’t go along will be fired.

JD Vance: “Charlie Kirk never said Black women do not have brain processing power to be taken seriously. He never uttered those words.”

Charlie Kirk: “Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, Ketanji Brown Jackson — you do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken seriously.”

Good for you, @matthewjdowd.bsky.social

Don’t let the cowards steal the truth of your words. Embrace it as a necessary act of resistance.

What is with these people and projection? They routinely accuse their opponents for the very things they are guilty of. It's Grade School Bullying 101.

Performative public lying is a hallmark of far right authoritarian parties

Scream this truth from the rooftops. Scream it again. And again.

Will allow for more corporate shenanigans that screw small investors.

In new oversight report, Sen Adam Schiff (D-CA) argues taxpayer money was improperly used to hang banners with Trump image on federal buildings

The special will catalogue over 100 of Trump’s lies and falsehoods, with “brief text-based fact-checks, offering viewers the truth behind the tweets, speeches and soundbites.”

It’s not the wage at which Americans can afford to do the work. That’s the part they won’t say. Instead of rethinking how they do business or accepting that 🍆🥔 is wrecking this for everybody after they chose him, they blame everybody else. They were warned. Now we suffer bc they chose this.

I like how their need for laborers is somehow everyone else’s fault. We’re not too spoiled. It not the kind of work we want to do. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps, hoss. Do your own labor.

Trump Doesn’t Need DOGE to Kneecap Independent Agencies While DOGE has fallen by the wayside, many independent agencies that protect the public against corporate and government malfeasance remain hobbled by a lack of quorum.

As a result of Trump terminations, numerous federal agencies are non-functional without a quorum, revealing another way to effectively shut down the federal government. From our friends at @revolvingdoordc.bsky.social:

Trump Media lost $20 million last quarter.

The Turning Point USA Family: Charlie Kirk Gave us everything. his mission lives on. Watch this powerful tribute now (donation link)

Erika Kirk: I refuse to let the movement Charlie built die. It will only grow - stronger, bolder, louder. Join me (donation link)

Turning Point USA is mass texting teenagers. My minor teen son is getting bombarded. Despite opting out of one text scam, TPUSA will text with another text scam.

They're going full grift ahead to raise money by targeting teens for their allowance money. An absurd attempt to grift and indoctrinate.

two men are posing for a picture and one has a pink tie on Alt: Donald trump eating Jeffery Epsteins ass

Good morning ppl! Charlie who???

Release the #Epstein files

The most destabilizing voice in the world. And this country is responsible for his rise and reach.

I'm so grateful for Governor Hochul's support in unifying our party, her resolve in standing up to Trump, and her focus on making New York affordable. I look forward to the great work we will accomplish together.

Our movement is only growing stronger. Onward to November.

Epstein birthday book renews questions about links to rich and powerful men Book compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell contains multiple innuendo-laden letters – including one from Donald Trump

New for @us.theguardian.com on the #JeffreyEpstein birthday book: Were his misdeeds an open secret among his high-profile pals?

What's being "protected" is not "free speech" but rather the RIGHT for white men to be white supremacists in public without any criticism or any consequences. I hope that's clear.
