It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.
Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel
Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

Colbert and Kimmel cancelled? This is not free speech. I think the coastal states should join Canada and secede. We don’t share the same values as the hate-filled, gun worshipping red states or the Republicans who excuse and defend the corrupt dictator. How can they ignore WWII history?

Robert Downen with Texas Monthly: Few people know that Charlie Kirk has for years been among the most reviled people on the planet by white supremacists, many of whom were radicalized by campaigns painting him as an anti-white fraud.

Why has no one suggested the simple solution of limiting the tax cuts to those making less than $1m a year? Instead we have Mitch McConnell making callous comments about the poor who will lose Medicaid: “they’ll get over it”. Wouldn’t it be easier for millionaires and billionaires to “get over it”?

@carelesspeople.bsky.social I live in SV and could not put this down. It is proof that Facebook is helping promote authoritarian regimes while in public they feign innocence of any wrongdoing. Zuckerberg chooses profit over ethics at every turn.

How much you wanna bet that soon we’ll find out it’ll cost $100 billion or some such amount to fix everything he broke?
Elon Musk said he’d cut the federal budget by $2 trillion
Quickly lowered this to $1 trillion
Now he’s down to $150 billion
And even THAT appears to be an overestimate of $92 billion
So-after firing thousands of workers and destroying government services
This clown will cut $58 billion
Maybe

What a bunch of cowards to bend their knee to a autocrat-wanna-be who wears makeup, high heels and a girdle.
Folks don’t go to a law firm like Paul Weiss who easily caves in. Because how do you expect them to defend you, when they wouldn’t even defend their firm’s principles?

Darth V is tearing down our democracy brick by brick. Firing highly qualified defense heads and replacing with loyalists. Indiscriminately firing civil servants so he can hire his pals. Bypassing our NATO friends to cozy up to Putin. Perhaps he plans to sell the US to Putin and pocket the proceeds.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Every decision made since the takeover is designed to give the Putin-equivalent and his oligarchs more power and money. In the last 45 years the difference in income of the wealthy and the middle/lower class has become enormous. The gap now widens to benefit only the king and 640 billionaires.
