I talked on MSNBC today about the corruption playing out at the FCC. This isn't just about Jimmy Kimmel being silenced. The FCC is planning to change the rules to allow the company that shut down Kimmel to have a monopoly-like stake in local TV ownership.

It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents.
But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.

I’m sorry, but I spent 15 years with DC police as a reserve. This national guardsman thinks he’s going to call DC Police and have the individual arrested for playing a soundtrack song from Star Wars while walking down the street? Get the fuck out of here. These guys need some more education.

OMG! I see news that Trummpp intends to attend the Tigers v. Yankees game in NY on 9/11.
Are they intending to keep the stadium empty for the whole game? Or will attendees be searched for tomatoes, bricks & dog poo?
The guy who hates to be booed lives in fantasy if he tries this. What a bad idea.

Let us resolve today for a better politics instead of hurling insults. I shared Bobby Kennedy's words with Kaitlan Collins: "Let us replace the violence and stain of bloodshed that is spreading across our land with an effort to understand with love and compassion."

We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.

Wow! Listen to this list of acts of political violence. It’s not even complete, but sobering AF.
Now, Charlie Kirk was shot and killed in front of a crowd, and the video is all over social media. This needs to stop.

I encourage everyone to look out for their safety and practice good internet hygiene, of course. But some of the scolding posts I've read suggest we can change the awful aftermath of a fateful event by just holding our tongues and being quiet little mice, and that isn't my experience.

The news that Charlie Kirk was shot while speaking in Utah is shocking and horrible. It’s an example of political violence that has no place in our country. Gabby and I are thinking of him and his family.

Democratic societies will always have political disagreements, but we must never allow America to become a country that confronts those disagreements with violence.

Political violence is always immoral and always counterproductive for a healthy democracy. It solves nothing. It only leads to further violence and ultimately enables scapegoating of vulnerable communities. Committing acts of violence against those who disagree with us helps no one.
