Giving a bully your lunch money is only a temporary downpayment for future bullying.

This commentary offers a clear, powerful statement of why freedom of speech is at the heart of democracy and must be defended, whether the speaker is Charlie Kirk or Jimmy Kimmel, MAGA supporters or MAGA opponents.

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.

Disney has made a calculated decision that liberals will react with a whimper to the Kimmel announcement. Liberals could, if unified, bring Disney to its knees with a mass-boycott of Disney+.

This is bullshit.
Not only do ICE bounty hunters refuse to identify themselves, they won’t say where they’re taking the people they’re kidnapping.
Deliberately shuffling detainees from facility to facility so families can’t find them & they miss their chance at legal counsel.

I’m choked up seeing this—it’s shameful.
Iranian refugees got snatched by “immigration agents” dressed like bounty hunters in West LA’s Sawtelle neighborhood.
We’re really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?
