Opinion | Firing talkshow hosts is not a free speech issue. Company should be free to hire and fire at will. Universities on the other hand need to hire many more conservative professors.

David Letterman on his career mocking presidents: “Beating up on these people, rightly or wrongly, accurately or perhaps inaccurately, in the name of comedy—not once were we squeezed by anyone from any governmental agency, let alone the dreaded FCC.”

I think this comparison is largely right.

Yes, it’s a replay of McCarthyism’s ugliest aspects but that was fueled by a widespread sense that the country faced dire external dangers while this is about a deeply unpopular president’s grudges.
This is the biggest attack on free speech since the McCarthy era but it also has significantly less popular consensus behind it than the second Red Scare. It's being done on behalf of a minority faction led by the most unpopular president in modern history. Organizing against this can win.

Even after abusing his power to get Kimmel fired, Trump is still seething with resentment. Hopefully to the point of ill health.

KEEP RIDICULING THEM, THEY CAN’T HANDLE IT.
Trump’s latest tweet is about Kimmel.

“He made a total FOOL of himself, his wife and agent begging him not to do it, while also proving to be one of the Worst Hosts in the History of the Academy Awards.”

Gorsuch and Barrett sit in stolen seats. Kavanaugh is a drunken credibly accused rapist whose debts were mysteriously laid off. Thomas and Alito take bribes from billionaires. And Robert ignores the law to appease Trump.

The current Supreme Court is illegitimate. All these rulings must be reversed.
NEW: Supreme Court conservatives OK Trump administration's racial profiling of Latinos in low-wage jobs.

Five of the six Republican appointees to the Supreme Court wrote nothing Monday. But their actions, and Justice Kavanaugh's concurrence, paint an alarming picture.

The New Yorker asked me “how bad” today’s Supreme Court ruling was. I boiled it down to one paragraph:

No more pretending. There is no more Supreme Court. There is nothing Trump will do that will make GOP Congress stop him. They do not intend to have further elections. They plan to go after dissent. Sometimes it’s helpful to establish where we are so we understand the nature of our task.

The VA election is on 11/4/25. After all the damage that has been done by the Trump regime, VA must go bluer—to pass bills that would protect VA. W/a 51–49 Dem majority, we need to grow it in the House of Delegates & elect Abigail Spanberger Governor for a Dem trifecta. Here’s what you can do 🧵1/3

The first thing I thought of when I heard about today’s shooting at the CDC is how the Trump administration essentially demolished the CDC department responsible for gun violence research and prevention.

Volunteers are taking pics of signs at national parks that tell the full story of American history. In an organized campaign they are capturing displays on the brutality of slavery, imprisonment of Native Americans, rising sea levels and other hard truths that Trump wants to erase.

A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda.

This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵
