What about an amendment to move the DOJ under Congress?

This is wrong. This is an assault on free speech. This is our government using its power to censor and silence its critics like Jimmy Kimmel.

Donald Trump continues to undermine our constitution, our freedoms, and our democracy.

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.

We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life Influential anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday. While condemning violence is something most can get behind, sanitization of his hate has gone too far.

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man.

Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent.

We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate.

I'm trying to understand exactly what was said that was the problem. There was nothing to apologize for.

I'm not sure 65-69% of Americans would agree the sun is hot and night is dark, but they apparently agree on this:

Americans who say Trump is "very" or "somewhat dishonest" =
69%

Americans who say Trump is "very" or "somewhat corrupt" = 65%

Southwest Ohio to lose two health clinics over federal, state budget Medicaid cuts β€’ Ohio Capital Journal Southwest Ohio is going to lose two reproductive health clinics due to the federal budget changes to Medicaid, a loss that could mean more abortions will happen, according to the leader of the clinics...

"While the budget changes bar health providers who perform abortions from being a part of Medicaid, the clinics being closed did not offer abortion services.

Their services included tests for sexually transmitted diseases, birth control, cancer screenings..."

There needs to be an amendment that takes the DOJ out from under the Executive Branch and puts it under the control of Congress.

It took Netanyahu 29 years, but he finally found an American president who was itching to go to war with him against Iran.

This isn’t remotely like Watergate.  During Watergate, Congress actually cared whether laws had been broken.

More than 3 million people would lose SNAP benefits under GOP bill, nonpartisan report says β€’ Minnesota Reformer CBO: The massive tax and spending bill passed by U.S. House Republicans would likely result in 3.2 million people losing food assistance and saddle states with around $14 billion a year in costs.
