The government does not have the power to declare “free speech zones.” And the violent arrest of the rabbi should set off some alarm bells.
Heard an officer say "let's do it" and then, in the dark, they tackle Rabbi Ben to the ground. He's being loaded into a CCSO wagon now. Broadview police also here screaming at people.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.
Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

Jimmy Kimmel wasn't suspended because of what he said. He was suspended because the FCC threatened his employer.

My guess is that the ACLU and other civil society orgs sue to strike this down and the Trump admin will use that to argue they support terrorism and Trump will investigate them and strip them of their 501c3 status. This is the full dismantling of liberal civil society right before our eyes.

When the government moves to punish those who say things that are offensive to the feelings of the government, that is a crystal clear violation of First Amendment protections. Anyone who tries to tell you otherwise is asking you to give up your own First Amendment protections.

Today would've been Marsha P. Johnson's 80th birthday. She spent her life advocating for LGBTQ people, youth experiencing homelessness, and people living with HIV.

Well, this has certainly escalated quickly. National Guard units patrolling the nation’s capital under Trump’s orders are now carrying firearms. The moment our military turns its weapons on American citizens will mark a point of no return.
