Glad the free speech folks are in charge

Constitution for ‘normal times’ only. Like the founders wrote.

These are similar arguments that campus liberals made in 2021.

James Lindsay’s concept of ‘the woke right’ makes more and more sense to me as the second Trump malignancy unfolds.

My guess is Kimmel will be back within 6 months and will start with a really good joke that jabs at Trump.

My guess is he comes on stage and says “you know, Brendan Carr has a neck, too.”

I actually haven't heard any mainstream right punditry that supports the administration on the FCC threat.

Trump’s 15B lawsuit against the NYT was thrown out today as being improper.

It’s an 85 page document and it’s not until page 80 that he mentions his first legal complaint.

This first 80 pages are all puffery about how awesome Trump is and a catalog of grievances against the world for not recognizing it.

They have a month to file something professional.

Cancel culture vs consequence culture is a distinction that’s been making the rounds in right wing punditry. But it’s a little too nuanced for Trump to speak to, despite the valiant efforts of that reporter.

Meh, I remember Maher’s cancellation. That was organic and consequential. This was in the era that everybody was rallying around the US military and the leadership, everybody was pissed, angry, and scared after 9/11, and Maher was out there calling the terrorists “Warriors” and seemed to be questioning the heart and ability of US soldiers. That firing was driven by advertisers pulling, viewership complaining, and was a lot not more expected and natural of a result.
