I stand with Jimmy Kimmel.

In other words, I am the *opposite* of his cowardly employer.

Jimmy Kimmel was taken off the air for mocking Donald Trump and MAGA, not for disrespecting anyone recently assassinated.

Don't listen to the lies that say otherwise.

All of the unions in Hollywood should immediately boycott Disney/ABC. They only care about money, so go after that.

Democracy depends on a fearless and free press.

Corporations or ultra-wealthy individuals with many other business interests should not be allowed to control our media.

They cannot be trusted to prioritize the public’s right to know over their own financial interests.

Multiple reasons why I left organized religion years ago!! Religion is the breeding ground for ideological separation of masses! True spirituality, separated from any god ideology is the only way this world will ever heal this world! Just my opinion.

Kristi Noem delaying FEMA for 72 hours in Texas turned search and rescue into search and recovery

Let’s not forget that Kristi Noem waited more than a month to request FEMA assistance during the catastrophic South Dakota floods in 2024 when she was Governor. She had also refused to deploy the National Guard due to costs — right after sending them to the U.S.–Mexico border.

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.
