Allegedly, if you’re anti-war or anti-foreign aid, @SpeakerJohnson plans to screen you out of the Republican party.
Chris Menahan 🇺🇸@infolibnews
House Speaker Mike Johnson held a "private meeting" with AIPAC and Jewish leaders on Wednesday on Capitol Hill wherein he reportedly pledged to screen out "isolationist" (see: anti-Israel) GOP candidates "to prevent that wing of the party from growing larger in the House." Rep. Tim Walberg (R-MI), who was also part of the meeting, revealed "he’d been texting recently with Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt about the proliferation of antisemitic conspiracy theories about the killing of influencer Charlie Kirk," Jewish Insider reported. Though nearly all the participants remained mum on what went down, Rep. David Kustoff (R-TN) tweeted out an image of the room and you can make out many of the participants, including several Jewish Insider declined to name. 🧵

@greg_price11 If the parents were only more open minded, Charlie would still be alive. Transphobia kills.
English
Montel Williams and Abby Phillip speculate that Charlie Kirk's killer was motivated by his MAGA family not accepting his transgender boyfriend.
"He was trying to defend his significant other. Not trying in defense of ideology."

Trump demanded that ABC cancel Jimmy Kimmel and they did. They bent the knee again. This is a blatant attack on the first amendment. It will only get worse from here.
English
@TerryMoran You know Nextstar Media is not the government right?
English
If the First Amendment means anything, it means that federal bureaucrats cannot dictate the content of a late-show host’s monologue.
We must stand up against this blatant attack on freedom of speech.
All of us.

ABC is pulling #JimmyKimmelLive "indefinitely" after Nexstar Media, one of the nation’s largest TV station owners, said it would stop airing the program in response to Kimmel’s remarks about the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. variety.com/2025/tv/news/n…

Wow! What should happen to these University of North Carolina Wilmington students who painted over the Charlie Kirk mural?
English
@JasmineForUS Nobody ever really expected Jazzmyn to understand the literal First Amendment, did they?
English
Kimmel hurts MAGA’S feelings by holding a mirror up & so the first amendment is out the window and his show is pulled… who is going to tell them that, that is the definition of being a snowflake… as well as supporting anti-democratic ideals? (Not patriotic at all)
Now is anyone going to talk about the fact that Faux News had an anchor say that mentally ill homeless people should be given “involuntary lethal injection,” and days later an unhoused man is strung up in a Tree in Mississippi & an entire homeless encampment was targeted where 2 individuals were shot in the head & 5 others were injured in Minnesota… NO OUTRAGE, let alone coverage, because you only value certain lives & certain speech.
I’m waiting on y’all soft asses to cancel rainbows 🌈.

@GovPritzker A company can silence anyone they want to. Do you really not understand the definition of freedom of speech?
English
A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.
This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.
English
The countries where comedians can't mock the leader on late night TV are not really ones you want to live in.

Joy Behar says she wouldn't want a Trump supporter to save her life if she was choking.

@JessicaTarlov You need to understand what free speech means.

Free speech advocates on the right have a lot of heavy lifting to do.

BREAKING: ABC has pulled Jimmy Kimmel Live! off the air indefinitely following comments he made in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder. Trump’s FCC chair, Brendan Carr, earlier appeared on MAGA propagandist Benny Johnson’s show and threatened to revoke ABC and Disney’s broadcast licenses if they didn’t take action against Kimmel.
English
🚨 Jimmy Kimmel Live pulled off air. Why? He joked Kirk’s killer might’ve been pro-Trump.
Within 48 hrs, Trump’s FCC threatened Disney/ABC’s license and they caved.
That’s not “cancel culture.” That’s state censorship in real time.
English
@PinksGarageKey @allenanalysis Dumb. This is not government censorship.
English
@LibertySnake76 @allenanalysis Free speech means freedom from GOVERNMENT censorship. Nobody here has ever been protected from censorship by private entities.
English
@allenanalysis If he was actually cancelled for saying that, and not just for being a garbage show. As a conservative I'm completely against it. Free speech Is quintessential to maintaining the rest of our rights. Even the freedom to say stupid shit.
English
@sourceshipsell @allenanalysis Is Disney the government? I don't think so.
English
@allenanalysis Is Disney firing Kimmel a First Amendment violation?
English
@TimGardner23 @allenanalysis Wrong. It was the broadcasters.
English
@allenanalysis It was one of their own that pulled the plug on Kimmel. Disney, of all the leftist/woke companies on the planet, made the executive decision to cancel Kimmel for spreading lies against Charlie Kirk's murderer. Corporate America pulled the plug so how can it be State censorship?
English
@wapitidude @allenanalysis Exactly. Stupid people don't understand that "free speech" rights only apply to government censorship.
English
@allenanalysis It’s not censorship. Kimmel can still say whatever the fuck he wants. He just doesn’t have the same microphone. ABC, the company that pays his rent, decided they didn’t want to take it in the shorts financially. That’s life in the big city. Sorry if it ruffles your panties, Bri.
English
@allenanalysis This is what happens when comedians get high on their own supply and start pretending to be sharing facts.
English
@libsoftiktok OMG now do Hitler whispering sweet nothings to his wife. Geez.
English
WTF?!
ABC’s Matt Gutman says that the messages of the shooter confessing to the m*rder of Charlie Kirk were "VERY TOUCHING."
What about the confession of an alleged killer is "touching"???
Sick

@CollinRugg Love her. Maybe she disagreed, whatever, everyone is entitled to their opinion. But she displayed humanity.
English
Actress and film producer Jamie Lee Curtis breaks down in tears over the death of Charlie Kirk.
"I mean, I disagreed with him on almost every point I ever heard him say..."
"But I believe he was a man of faith, and I hope in that moment when he died, that he felt connected to his faith."
English
@its_The_Dr No it shouldn't be "considered" a mental illness because it is factually and actually a mental illness. Nothing to consider.

Should Being Trans be considered a mental illness?
