🔥🔥🔥This is the trailer to my film “True Believers At The Insurrection” it’s my first film (at 80) I didn’t think I could do it. But I did. When we walk thru the fear, anything is possible. I could not have done it without the support of old twitter. So grateful to those who helped

BREAKING

The US State Department has revoked the visas of citizens from Argentina, South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, Germany, and Paraguay for comments they made in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

- An Argentine national who said Charlie "devoted his entire life spreading racist, xenophobic, misogynistic rhetoric" and deserves to burn in hell.
- A South African national who mocked those grieving Charlie saying "they're hurt that the racist rally ended in attempted martyrdom"
-A Mexican national who said Charlie "died being a racist, he died being a misogynist" and stated that "there are people who deserve to die."
- A Brazilian national who said "Charlie Kirk was the reason for a Nazi rally where they marched in homage to him" and that he "DIED TOO LATE."
- A German national who celebrated Charlie's death + wrote
"when fascists die, democrats don't complain."
- A Paraguayan national who said "Charlie Kirk was a son of a b**** and he died by his own rules."

An extraordinary new policy from the Defense Department that equates basic reporting methods to criminal activity has prompted a revolt among Pentagon journalists that could leave the nation's largest agency and the world's largest military without a press corps.

'Without precedent': Virtually all news outlets reject restrictive Pentagon press policy

The policy would force news organizations to refrain from publishing material not approved by the military. Media lawyers say it violates the 1st Amendment.
