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.

Free speech for me, none for thee.

“Trump & MAGA spent years lampooning censorship, discrimination against conservatives, and progressive "cancel culture… Now in power they're enforcing speech codes to punish ideological opponents.”

Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment:

"To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

Trump was golfing, Ted Cruz was partying in Greece, and the Mexican President was sending in help to the Texas flood victims. Put it on every. fucking. billboard.

UPenn just communicated to every young trans person in the country that they are not safe on that campus. I hope every young person who was considering UPenn for college understands that and applies elsewhere. Your trans friends are not safe on that campus.

If there was ever a time to call your Senator, this is it.

Voting has begun on the GOP plan to cut off health care for working-class Americans and slash taxes for the wealthiest.

Zohran Mamdani didn't just crush a political machine which had the money behind it.

He hasn't just re-energised the US left.

He's given hope to all of us who want an alternative to this gruesome age of injustice, creeping fascism, war and genocide.

Our air base in Qatar is under Iranian attack, but don’t worry because we have a former reality tv game show host criminal conman with the impulse control of a hangry toddler for a president and a day drinking weekend tv “news” pundit for a Secretary of Defense, so this is fine.
Everything is fine.

LA DODGERS just now:

“This morning, ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots. They were denied entry to the grounds by the organization. Tonight’s game will be played as scheduled.”

Right on, Dodgers!
More of this, please.
