People are using their First Amendment rights to speak out against the Trump regime's anti-freedom.

When you see the full joke by jimmy Kimmel you realize there was no joke about Charlie Kirk. The joke was about Donald Trump. The reality is Trump and maga want to make it clear you can not mock their beloved supreme leader.

already commented on this. But I think this may literally be the dumbest comment of the second Trump administration so far.
Reporter: The president fired the Librarian of Congress. Why?
Leavitt: There were quite concerning things she had done at the Library of Congress in the pursuit of DEI and putting inappropriate books in the library for children.

The IRS unit that audits ultrawealthy earners has lost 38% of its employees this year.
This will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163B a year.
