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.

Canceling Jimmy Kimmel show is not about Charlie Kirk, just like going after universities was not about antisemitism and occupying DC was not about fighting crime.

Just so everyone is clear, this right here is what an actual violation of the First Amendment looks like. When the head of the FCC says a company needs to do something about someone who displeased the administration or lose its license, that’s no joke unconstitutional
ABC announced that it was pulling Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show “indefinitely” after his comments about Charlie Kirk’s death.
ABC Pulls Jimmy Kimmel Off Air for Charlie Kirk Comments
Mr. Kimmel faced some criticism for comments he made on Monday about the motives of the man who is accused of killing Charlie Kirk.

We're 7 months in and Trump and the oligarchs have completely seized control of the media. If you criticize them, your show will be pulled from the air.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.
This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Why would the DOJ scrub the fact that right-wing extremism is the #1 domestic terror threat in America?
Why not acknowledge and confront it?
Also why haven't they released the Epstein Files?
Also why did Ghislaine Maxwell get a sweetheart deal transfer?
These problems won't go away.
