Kimmel wasn’t fired for his remarks on Kirk—he was fired for using his platform to expose and critique our government. Enough! We especially need large corporations, with the money and influence they have, to fight back. sign.moveon.org/petitions/ki...

A leaked memo reveals that DOGE's next target is the VA, with plans to fire more than 80,000 agency workers who provide critical services to veterans and their families.
