BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear:
The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here.
Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead.
This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.

By far, the most violent despicable people on this planet. Anybody and I mean, anybody who votes for Republicans have to be completely out of their minds. You can’t have a bill like this and feel good about voting Republican. There’s no way I am just so angry absolutely despicable.
🧵 Tucked inside the House GOP tax bill? A massive national voucher program. $5B/year in tax credits to subsidize private & religious schools—$20B over 4 years. Public money, zero oversight.
