Sen. Chris Murphy: "Trump's FCC forced a major network to pull a loud Trump critic, Jimmy Kimmel, off the air β essentially saying that any media actor that doesn't say what Trump wants them to say...is going to be silenced. That's censorship. That's not America."

The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice.
As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree.
Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich.
Silencing us impoverishes the whole world.
The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Pentagon says the deployment of National Guard members and Marines to protests over immigration raids in Los Angeles is costing $134 million.
After persistent questioning from members of Congress on Tuesday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth turned to his acting comptroller, Bryn Woollacott MacDonnell, who provided the total. She said the money will come from operations and maintenance accounts.
The Pentagon confirms that the Trump regime's deployment of National Guard members and Marines to intimidate US citizens in an attempt to deny citizens of their First Amendment and peaceful protests over ICE ethnic cleansing operations in LA will cost tax payers $134 million.
