FIRE is entitled to do and say what it wants, but its depiction of itself as an independent protector of “individual rights and expression” is deceptive.

Can a Group Allied With the Right Defend the 1st Amendment for All? — Assigned
FIRE, a product of the “academic freedom” campaign, wants to protect free speech for everyone. Yet its stances show deference to religious views and a persistent anti-queer strain.

FIRE has invested a lot of time lately trying to sand off the hardest right-wing edges of its public image. Yet its casework still demonstrates that ideology drives its agenda in good part, as does its allegiance to its long-time donor base, like the Charles Koch funded Stand Together Trust.

On top of what breaks they already get.
Republicans gave $132 billion in tax breaks to the top 1% in 2027.
With that money, we could have extended ACA tax credits for over 20 million people next year and still have $100 billion left over.
