The bigger the hate and judgment, the bigger the repression. X

Snortin' coffee over here.
So Kimmel gets fired for supposedly misidentifying the shooter as MAGA (though thatās not quite what he said.) When do all the Fox hosts who misidentified the shooter as transgender get fired then?
down the slippery slope we go...weeeeeeeeeeeee
lol
There goes the First Amendment.
The federal vaccine advisory panel, appointed by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., voted against adding a combined measles, mumps, rubella, and chickenpox vaccine to a federal program that covers vaccination costs. The decision reversed a vote taken the previous day,
Breaking: House Dems blast Alex Acosta for ignoring evidence from 40+ Epstein victims, fueling calls for accountability. Evasive answers revive demands to release all Epstein files. Full story: substack.com/home/post/p-... #Exoteric #Usdemocracy
Today the Oversight Committee sat down with Alex Acosta. What we heard only confirmed what we already knew: he cut a sweetheart deal for Epstein, silenced victims, and let a predator walk free.
Letās do to Disney what we did to Target.
Looks like the Trump regime has checked all the boxes.
As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesnāt compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. Theyāre committing crimes against humanity there."
Pete Buttigieg WARNS America: āThey didn't stop at the law firms. They didn't stop at the Universities. They didn't even stop at the comedians. They are NOT going to stop until they have TOTAL POWER!."
Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target
A CHILD and woman rapist, predator, bully of disabled people, is going to tell us what to listen to!! Think about that, then unsubscribe from all that supports and abets him. You won't wither away and die.
The Russification of the United States has begun. The next step is the imprisonment of opponents of opinion, the dismissal of foreign journalists, the repression of minorities (which has already begun), etc.
Seeing a lot of posts about lists of places to boycott to send a message to ABC/Disney/whoever and it's just sort of driving home the reminder that a big part of the problem is that all these company are really just one big company.
Many of the GOP were probably paying Epstein. #HushMoney
Do the bank transactions include money paid to Epstein for bribery? We know Epstein made tapes and had photographs of clients with underage girls. Epstein then used the videos and photographs to blackmail his "clients." Do the bank transactions reveal who Epstein was bribing?
Letās cancel Carr? Call your Congressman n Senator n get Carr Fired! 202.225.9739! #firecarr
the hysteria has gone off the rails so far that the average american thinks 1 in 5 people are transgender. pure absolute insanity that is driving the current lavender scare
70+ years since McCarthyism and yet... here we are.
āWeāve heard similar language used by Trump, & it always amounts to unbridled jingoism purported to be patriotism, lying about Americaās history of slavery, systemic racism, & genocide, & all other manner of attempts to disguise white nationalism as American pride.ā l.smartnews.com/p-6egt52rm/e...
The one good thing about this ārun America like a businessā nightmare is that more people are beginning to realize how corrupt and craven many businesses truly are. Take notes. Never forget how they abandoned us. Donāt forgive their complicity.
To entertain the kids, apply the money from your cancelled Disney+ & Disney vacation to PBS. I've raised my children but I'm surprised how many programs PBS has for children...in addition to acclaimed Sesame Street.
Goodbye, Disney+!
That was fast. This is also why you donāt surrender to autocrats - you fight them and beat them.
Shapiro: Thereās a lot to be critical of: things cost a whole lot more after they promised costs would go down. Weāve got a healthcare system thatās being disrupted by an absolute quack That shouldnāt be censored. Because censorship erodes our fundamental freedoms.
My boycott list continues to expand...states I won't visit, stores I no longer shop at, products I don't buy...I'll have all debt & credit cards paid off by the end of this year. Hit 'em in the wallet. #PowerofthePurse
These media companies capitulating forget where their bread is buttered. Stop spending your money on them. Never go to Disney. Look at Target. Yes, they have all the levers of government. BUT WE HAVE ALL THE MONEY.
Ghislaine Maxwell swears she ānever saw anything sexualā with Epsteināyet admits topless girls rubbed his feet. Dr. Leslie Dobson breaks down the Maxwell tapes: evasions, rehearsed lines, and who sheās really protecting.
Democratic New York lawmakers ā as well as City Comptroller Brad Lander ā were arrested by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officers Thursday after demanding access to an alleged detention facility run by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at 26 Federal Plaza.
Yet, he invited Hair Fuhrer to his castle to break bread. Hmmm...š¤ Maybe Andrew wasn't the only Royal in the Epstein files.
I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.
We r definitely in a Constitutional crisis where Trump, w/support of GOP sycophant legislators, r conspiring w/POTUS 2 undermine & violate our rights protected by Constitution. He has violated his oath 2 defend the Constitution in so many ways, but censoring free speech cannot be tolerated! Resist!

Prediction: Lackey Brendan Carr will move to "declare" that MSM programs like Rachel Maddow, The View, PBS Newshour, etc. are "violent left wing propaganda". Then Carr, obeying Donald's & Miller's demand, will declare FOX, Newsmax, Sinclair, ABC, CBS to be the official "truth, peaceful & free".

Nazi Germany: Under Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels, the media was completely controlled and weaponized to promote the Nazi ideology. Independent newspapers were shut down or taken over. Journalists who failed to follow strict guidelines could be fired or sent to a concentration camp.

A group of local tow truck drivers are offering to tow people's work vans to work sites without charge if they're afraid of being taken by ICE while driving, which is a neat spontaneous community response to all of this
Who's going to tell Dementia Don? šš¤£š
First they came for the books, and no one said anything. Then they came for the newspapers, and no one said anything Now they've come for the TV hosts, and DO YOU NOT ALL SEE THIS IS STEP BY STEP AUTHORITARIANISM! FFS.
BREAKING: Eric Swalwell just told the FCC chairman to hire a lawyer and preserve records because they will be held accountable in 2027 when democrats take the House. Oh and heās wearing a Jimmy Kimmel hat.
Walz: This is North Korea style stuff. And it's being done because this is a weak, thin skinned man who's failing as a president. All of the things he promised are not happening. It's a it's our most cherished freedom to point out very clearly, this is a terrible president
Make it make sense ......
Right-wing Sinclair Broadcasting owns all these local media stations and many others all across America. This is not journalism, it is scripted propaganda.

STEWART: āComedy doesnāt change the world, but itās a bellwetherā weāre the banana peel in the coal mineā¦ authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thoughtā¦ progress.ā Nailed it.
Stephen Colbert: āTonight weāre all Jimmy Kimmelā¦. With an autocrat, you canāt give an inch. If ABC thinks that this is going to satisfy the regime, they are woefully naive, and clearly they've never read The Children's Book If You Give a Mouse A Kimmel.ā
Ro Khanna: "They're making comedy illegal. Brendan Carr pressured ABC to cancel Jimmy Kimmel, and Disney cancels Jimmy Kimmel. This canceling from an administration that lectured us about cancel culture. That's why today I'm introducing a motion to subpoena Brendan Carr."
This isnāt just! Itās unconstitutional! Itās hypocritical! Itās immoral! Itās illegal! Itās wrong! Itās unprecedented! They donāt care about any of those things. They laugh at handwringing. Itās about acquiring & wielding power. You canāt shame them, you have to defeat them.
Pussy.
Release the Epstein Files
Himes: ABC took Jimmy Kimmel off the air because Brendan Carr, the chairman of the FCC, didnāt like some things Kimmel said.. Iām talking to you now because Iām just getting so damn sick of people who claim to be for free speech but turn out to only support free speech for people they agree with.
I donāt understand why the historical society is not doing anything about all this. THIS IS NOT FUCK WAD DONS PERSON PROPERTY. This is the peoples house. This is the history of all our presidents heās destroying for himself. He thinks it Mar a Lago.
former CDC official Dr. Houry: "I first learned that the secretary had changed our CDC covid vaccine guidance on an X social media post. CDC scientists have still not seen the scientific data or justification for this change. That is not gold standard science."
Checking in on this
Rep. Dan Goldman: "I'm very disappointed in Disney. ... This is an obvious first amendment violation."
Sen. Murray: Dr. Houry, I wanted to ask you, how did you learn about CDC's new COVID vaccination guidance in May? Dr. Houry: That the same as you, on social media? Sen. Murray: What was your title at CDC when that happened? Dr. Houry: I was the Chief Medical Officer of the CDC.
Yes. Thereās been a daily distraction to divert the narrative away from the Epstein files.
Man, a lot of crazy shit has happened since Epsteinās birthday letter was released a week ago Monday.
Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated. Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms. Collective boycott. Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.
"If thereās ever been any doubt about the need for mass public demonstrations as a regime is stripping away our freedoms and lying its way to greater power, these latest assaults must motivate those among us who are reluctant, indifferent or fearful. There are more of us than there are of them."
They are literally canceling culture

I stand with Jimmy Kimmel. In other words, I am the *opposite* of his cowardly employer.

Donāt let this make you quieter. Get louder.
This is a massive, history making abuse of your power. It will define your legacy and one day you will come to regret punishing free speech and trying to destroy democracy.
Jennings: He does not have a right to have a TV show where he lies his ass off to the American people and attacks half this country on a nightly basis Phillip: There are plenty of people over on another network who lied about the last election, who denigrate half the country every single night.
ABBY PHILLIP TO SCOTT JENNINGS: āHold onā¦ There are plenty of people over on (Fox) who lied about the election and denigrate half of šŗšø every night, and they are allowed to do itā¦ is the government supposed to be punishing people for speech they donāt like?ā
Becoming increasingly clear weāre gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.
Just so I'm clear: TV host says we should kill every homeless person? No big deal TV host says the right must "go to war" with the left? Pfft. TV host says the government is cracking down on critics? Well, the government cracks down on him for the criticism. Free speech, everyone.
A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesnāt like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.
It is not about Kimmel or what he said. It is about the US government forcing a network to fire someone - no government should have that power. If the network decided this on their own, thatās one thing. But in this case they absolutely did not.
Jarvis: I hate to say this to my friends here at CNN, mass media is dying, so they're taking the last of these vestiges of institutions that matter and they're trying to turn them into propaganda organs under threat from the head of the FCC

Pritzker: What's at stake here is free speech. It's our constitution and our way of life. Do we really want the president intimidating people, organizations to get others fired? People ought to be standing up and speaking out.
Weird that the FCC Chair had no issue with Kilmeade wanting to euthanize homeless people.
Antifa is not an organization. It does not exist. Today, Donald Trump openly and brazenly declared himself a fascist.
