Jimmy Kimmel was suspended by ABC after pressure from the United States government. This is a direct attack on the First Amendment.
Everyone who values freedom of speech should be outraged β and they should speak out.

A United States Secretary of Health and Human Services is tasked with protecting the public health of our country and its people. At yesterday's hearing, he chose to do the opposite: to dismiss science, mislead the public, sideline experts and sow confusion. None of us will be spared the pain he is inflicting. It doesn't matter how rich or powerful you are or what state you live inβ the heartbreak of watching a loved one fall ill knows no borders. The challenges before us-from disease outbreaks to mental health crises-demand moral clarity, scientific expertise, and leadership rooted in fact. Those values are not present in the Secretary's office. He must resign. 3:00 PM β’ Sep 5, 2025 β’
Keep speaking out!
Recently, 21 medical & public health organizations demanded Kennedy resign, citing his efforts to undermine science and public health.
His own family is doing the same.
This strongly worded tweet by Joe Kennedy III echoes many sentiments.

16.08.2025 17:14 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Without immediate intervention, the last reporters in Gaza will die July 21, 2025 AFP has been working with 1 writer, 3 photographers and 6 videographers, all freelance, in the Gaza Strip since its staff journalists left in 2024. Along with a few others, they are now the only ones left to report what is happening in the Gaza Strip. The international press has been banned from entering the territory for nearly two years. We refuse to watch them die. One of them, Bashar, has been working with AFP since 2010, first as a fixer, then freelance photographer, and since 2024, as lead photographer. On July 19th he managed to post a message on Facebook: βI no longer have the strength to work for the media. My body is thin and I canβt work anymore.β Bashar, 30, works & lives in the same conditions as all Gazans, moving from one refugee camp to another under Israeli bombings. For > a year heβs lived in utter destitution, working at extreme risk to his life. Hygiene is a major issue for him, with recurring bouts of severe intestinal illness. Since Feb, Basharβs been living in the ruins of his home in Gaza City with his mother, 4 brothers & sisters and the family of one of his brothers. Their house is devoid of any furnishings, except a few cushions. On Sunday morning, he reported that one of his brothers had βfallen, due to hunger.β Even though these journalists receive a monthly salary from AFP, itβs no longer enough to buy food, or they have to pay completely exorbitant prices. The banking system has collapsed, and those who exchange money via online bank accounts charge a commission of up to 40%. AFP no longer has the ability to provide them with a vehicle and there is not enough fuel to allow these journalists to travel for their reporting. Driving a car means becoming a target for Israeli airstrikes. AFP reporters therefore travel on foot or by donkey cart. (alt txt continued in next post)

The richest family in the United States, the Waltons, made money by not paying Walmart employees enough. This forced employees to seek government assistance for food and healthcare.
Republicansβ response is to take away that assistance because the Waltons arenβt rich enough.

Trump calls for a regime change in Iran.
Many of us call for a regime change in the United States.
Resistance will take many forms in the days and months ahead.
