Jimmy Kimmel gets dumped for jokes with no hate speech, no calls to violence, just opinion and satire. Meanwhile Brian Kilmeade suggests euthanizing the homeless by injection and still keeps his job. Says all you need to know Our media is as rotten to the core. www.cbc.ca/news/enterta...
Here's the upshot on hepatitis B vaccination at birth: - it's extremely safe - the earlier it's given, the better it protects against transmission from mother-to-child - screening fails to capture many cases and is not done at all in many cases - perinatal HBV infection is catastrophic

The last political column I was allowed to write in the @washingtonpost.com was a criticism of Obama. His people took issue with my piece, but we were respectful. Now he is tweeting in support of me. This is how free political speech and respect for debate *actually works*. Or used to work.
Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and heād still have a job.

Previous generations fought fascism in nearly every corner of the earth. Today itās on our streets, silencing opposition and attempting to control the airwaves. The GOP has declared all out war on free speech. Itās up to us to fight for it.

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 doesnāt like.
Yesterday I joined my @hispaniccaucus.bsky.social colleagues to echo Justice Sotomayor's dissent against the abhorrent Supreme Court ruling allowing federal agents to use racial profiling in our communities. These cruel and regressive tactics used by ICE are un-American. (1/2)

Remember these wordsā¦
Stupidity, greed, resources, mindless ideology & the legitimate desire/necessity to protect the lives & freedoms of ourselves & others may lead us into a civil war, but anyone who tells us thereās no way out & itās inevitable is propagandizing their OWN issues & doing us ALL a grave disservice.
A civil war is NOT inevitable. The vast majority of Americans do NOT want a civil war. The only people pushing for a civil war are: bots from foreign countries trying to destabilize the U.S.; politicians/corporations who want to dominate; extremist groups; individuals who have never experienced war.

ICE killed a Chicago area man last week. His name was Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez. He wasn't "the worst of the worst." He was a cook. ICE hopes we'll forget about him. We won't.
Looks like I made Kristi Noem mad by sending the Governor our bill to ban ICE & other law enforcement from wearing ski masks. Hope no dogs are nearby! Gaslight us all you want, but weāll never accept ICE secret police in California. Back off, Kristi!

Another question I get a lot: Sure, vaccination can create herd immunity. But since measles is so contagious, and recovery gives lifelong immunity, why can't we achieve herd immunity through mass infection & recovery? Thread [1/7]

They cry āfree speechā when itās hate, violence, and lies. But the second we tell the truth or call them out, suddenly weāve gone too far. That, my friends, is what you call selective outrage.

Why is the right so angry? They control the entire government and theyāre still miserable f*cks. Joy Reid nailed it.
Fear will try to convince us to isolate, to hoard resources, to avoid community, to build the least threatening campaigns making little impact. A grounded risk assessment will move us closer to each other, itāll remind us of that we are millions, itāll make our work more bold and more brave.

You know, here's the thing.. I like Democracy. #politics #fascism
Violence is never the answer. But neither is silence. The foundation of our democracy was forged in the crucible of debate & the idea that our voices are our most powerful tool. History will remember those who spoke up & worked to protect our democracy and bend the arc of history towards justice.

As Trump holds Northwestern University hostage with $800 million in frozen funds, Northwestern leadership cracks down on students' right to free speech. These policies put more than 22,000 students at risk of punishment for peacefully protesting for any cause in any way.
Fun fact: If you threaten to declare an emergency because someone isn't doing what you want, that's not an emergency. It's just a tantrum.

Hiding the truth.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor appeared to rebuke calls to target āhate speechā in an apparent swipe at Attorney General Pam Bondi. āEvery time I listen to a lawyer-trained representative saying we should criminalize free speech in some way, I think to myself, that law school failed,ā said Sotomayor.
Itās possible as they become more unhinged & divorced from reality, they will spin themselves completely out of controlāthey are already incompetent, unqualified, negligent, & so focused on themselves & their grievances, they may end as a huge dumpster fire, but this is still DANGEROUS to us ALL.

Trump is baselessly demonizing political opponents in an effort to silence critics and divide the nation into those who are with him and those who are against him. We're about to witness the depths of MAGA's anti-democratic authoritarianism. I'm hopeful most Americans will see this for what it is.
