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

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

House Reps need to hear from constituents today! Stop the budget bill that will give industries unfettered access to drilling, mining, and logging on our cherished public lands. This bill will devastate the environment and cause tremendous harm to the health of vulnerable communities.

Senator Mike Lee just introduced a new proposal to sell off public lands—this time targeting BLM lands near communities across the West.
Outdoor Alliance's GIS Lab is analyzing the bill, and our preliminary review shows significant overlap between recreation areas and lands that could be sold.

Senators are pushing for a fire sale of over 3 million acres of public lands—that’s an area larger than Connecticut. Families would lose access to some of their favorite trails and parks close to home. Once the land is sold and the no-trespassing signs go up, there is no going back.

Join us in calling Congress at 202-224-3121 and urge your Senators to vote NO on the budget bill.
The Senate reconciliation bill would sell off millions of acres of wild and untouched spaces to the oil, gas, coal, and logging industries to help pay for tax cuts for billionaires. Hands off!

The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would:
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land

People...it's time to get creative.
Here in Washington state, 3,866,398 acres are on the line. This includes some of the most carbon-dense forest in the world, with immeasurable value for climate resilience, biodiversity conservation, and human health and well-being.
