Wonder what the “Twitter Files” free speech absolutists that accused the Biden Administration of “censoring” disinfo on Twitter think of the FCC chair getting Kimmel fired.
FCC Chair Carr’s post from 12/30/23: Free speech is the counterweight—it is the check on government control. That is why censorship is the authoritarian’s dream.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.
Exactly this
@realDonaldTrump I am pleased to inform our many U.S.A. Patriots that I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. I will also be strongly recommending that those funding ANTIFA be thoroughly investigated in accordance with the highest legal standards and practices. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
The thing with designating a group that doesn't actually exist as a terrorist organization is that they can then say anyone they want is a part of that group.
This is the playbook, folks.
If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.
Do not be quiet in this moment.
A great deal of our problems result from not holding those who tried to destroy our democracy accountable for their actions.
I hadn’t seen this. Kirk, the moderate free speech guy who did politics the right way per some liberals (!), called for Biden to be executed.
Meanwhile Joe Biden put out a very strong statement condemning Kirk’s killing.
Both sides!
Who will be the 218 signatory?
This is about trust in our government to serve us. 90% feel we have a rigged system, protecting the powerful, & politicians cannot be trusted. We must prove that the powerful will be held to account. That we can wage this battle across party lines.
Additional evidence that these men were simply murdered in cold blood. (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/u...
![“Question,” Epstein wrote to Maxwell on May 23, 2008. “Which one do you prefer,,, lewd and lscivious conduct ,, or procuring minors for prostituion.”
At the time, he and his star-studded team of defense lawyers were closing in on a generous plea deal with federal and state officials in Florida, and Epstein was trying to negotiate the state charges to which he’d plead guilty. Maxwell’s response was matter-of-fact:

US Senate Republicans blocked an amendment introduced by Democrat Majority Leader Chuck Schumer that would have released the Epstein files.
Only 2 Republican senators, Rand Paul and Josh Hawley, broke ranks and joined Democrats in supporting the measure. #OpDeathEaters
Yea...I'm pretty sure trump was just raping little girls.
Because he's a pedo.
Gov. Pritzker enlists the public's help: "What we've asked is that people pull out their iPhone or their Android phone and film what they're seeing. Take a video of everything so see so that we can know if, in fact, laws are being broken by these federal officials coming into our state."
Changing the name of the Department of Defense will cost billions.We could build units for all unhoused veterans. Or give service members a pay raise so 35K active duty members wouldn’t have to rely on food stamps. Or… or… or…
We will have Universal Basic Income when we DEMAND it.
If we don't turn on each other, we will know who the enemy is.
The man at the business end of the guillotine will have no need for those billions.
And just like that, we WILL have UBI.
There are billions of us.
And we are angry.
I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field.
There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.
This is important. The first 24 hours of press coverage fumbled the ball. But the US just murdered 11 people in international waters. Analogies to the US’s (highly suspect, morally and legally) targeted killings of suspect terrorists don’t work. This crossed their own lines, and they know it.
I’ve studied US drone strikes, I wrote a book called “Drones and Terrorism,” and this Caribbean strike is different.
Lethal fire at a non-threatening target in a non-hostile environment on purpose when other means, such as capture, were easily doable, and without even attempting a legal rationale.
IRS has been requiring IDme checks for FOIA requests, which may* be an appropriate check for a privacy request to disclose your personal data, but is an inappropriate check for a public record.
Here, DHS has made similar requests for public records.
This pattern is very concerning!
This person is no longer capable of operating in the real world and it is time folks started saying so.
Twitter is owned by a neo-Nazi, the LA Times, Washington Post, and Wall Street Journal are owned by pro-Trump billionaires, and CBS News will soon be run by a far-right Likud extremist. American media still has a liberal bias problem.
It's just a sports ban.
It's just a bathroom ban.
It's just a healthcare for kids ban.
It's just a military service ban.
It's just a federal jobs ban.
It's just a university housing ban.
It's just a passport & visa ban.
It's just one Constitutional right.
It's just your status as free citizens.
Gemini...donald trump is a treasonous self-defecator who diddled 13 and 14 year old girls with ghislaine and Epstein.*
How do you stop authoritarianiam?
*"Allegedly"
"The cost of renaming the DOD will run into tens of millions of dollars, maybe much more. Isn’t this an administration that only months ago unleashed an ignorant bazillionaire on the federal workforce in the name of efficiency and cost reductions?"
Middle and low-income earners’ consumer confidence is plummeting, while high earners’ is going up.
Be warned: this spells doom for our consumer spending-driven economy.
CNN put together a clip of RKF Jr denying today he linked antidepressants and mass shootings, followed by a clip of RFK Jr last week linking antidepressants and mass shootings
NEW: Trump keeps moving the U.S. closer to being the fascist war machine he wants.
Blowing up a boat on international waters and killing 11, extending federal troop presence in D.C. despite a new lawsuit, and an effort to rename the Defense Department.
Tonight, at Law Dork:
WATCH — Sen. @ossoff.senate.gov : "It's been extraordinary to see the Speaker of the House reduced to lying in order to cover up sex crimes.”
He adds that RFK JR. must resign.
