Hours after we sent a letter signed by over 450 artists and 40K others defending free speech, ABC announced Jimmy Kimmel will return to air.

Other companies should heed this warning: We the people are watching.

David Letterman on Jimmy Kimmel: “We all see where this is going, correct? It’s managed media. It’s no good. It’s ridiculous. You can’t go around firing somebody because you’re fearful or trying to suck up to an authoritarian, a criminal administration in the Oval Office”

Now, the NEA wants to force artists to adhere to President Trump's anti-trans agenda — and we're suing, again.
NEA Funding Provision Threatens Queer Art and Free Expression
From the “decency” fights of the 1990s to today’s “gender ideology” rule, the NEA’s funding shifts are sidelining queer voices. The ACLU is pushing back to protect artists.

Anthony Bourdain on Donald Trump: “I just find him personally objectionable. I don’t think he likes food. He only eats steak well done. If he knows how to use chopsticks, much less be able to grasp them with those tiny little nubbins, I’d be shocked.”
