Is it a threat to free speech when the President of the United States threatens to yank the broadcast license of a channel whose reporters are asking him challenging questions?
I ask because I feel like there used to be tons of pundits worried about free speech. Where'd they go?

Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."

The federal court that struck down Texas' redistricting plan says the letter from a Trump DOJ appointee that kicked off the whole thing is "challenging to unpack the DOJ Letter because it contains so many factual, legal, and typographical errors. "

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money.
They must hammer economic populism — and have a laser focus on the cost of living crisis in America.
There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

The damage being done by this administration is so deep, so vicious, it may take centuries to undo - if we ever can. About-to-graduate PhDs deported just for being at a peaceful protest. A scientist sent home for replying to a social media post about freedoms. Imagine that. Imagine living that.

'AI Destroyed the Digital Artist' (from our BLFC show) is based on the 80's hit by The Buggles. This parody is a modern commentary on AI art. In the same vein as the original, it's a reflection on how technological advancements can disrupt established creative artforms with sad consequences.

I have no issue with H1B visas, per se. I do have an issue with them being used by oligarchs to work people 120 hours per week at a rate that's less than minimum wage, thereby driving down overall wages, increasing unemployment, and keeping people in virtual slavery under threat of deportation.

Don't kill the cringe. Instead, kill that within you that cringes.
The assholes who derive power by being shocked and horrified at those who aren't "normal" will always find a reason to hate and attack you, and shame is how they control you.
