*Everyone* should oppose government agencies forcing the people they investigate to keep quiet as a condition of settlement. Looking forward to talking w/ these smart folks about why that violates the letter and spirit of the First Amendment. Join us!

The SEC "gag rule" is blatantly unconstitutional. As financial regulators confront new tech — crypto, prediction markets, etc. — they’re sure to make mistakes. You deserve to be informed. Hear from experts on why SCOTUS must act. 🗓️ May 5, 2 pm ET zoom.us/webinar/regist…

@Msrpaul1 @FreedomofPress The constitution gives the press (and comedians) rights, not responsibilities. I'm all for those rights being exercised responsibly but if you think that's not happening, change the channel. Under the constitution, the government is who should sit this one out.

@FreedomofPress Freedom the press is a very different thing than the press which has a sacred responsibility under the constitution to be an arbiter of fact and an our case. This press has become a mouthpiece for the Democratic Party is spewing violence. So shut the fuck up and sit this one out

Early in Trump 2.0, ABC and Disney got scared and caved. But now, Trump is highly unpopular. Courts strike down his censorship BS regularly. This is an opportunity for ABC to course correct and tell the administration to kick rocks.
First Lady Melania Trump@FLOTUS

Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America. People like Kimmel shouldn’t have the opportunity to enter our homes each evening to spread hate. A coward, Kimmel hides behind ABC because he knows the network will keep running cover to protect him. Enough is enough.  It is time for ABC to take a stand.  How many times will ABC’s leadership enable Kimmel’s atrocious behavior at the expense of our community.

@SethAStern @jfeldis @FreedomofPress They were evidence of association and aligned motivation with others, supporting elements of the conspiracy and material assistance to terrorists charges.

This verdict is appalling — esp. the conviction of Daniel Sanchez-Estrada merely for transporting constitutionally protected zines, similar to the pamphlets that prompted the press freedom clause. The implications extend far beyond so-called "Antifa." theguardian.com/us-news/2026/m…

@SethAStern @jfeldis @FreedomofPress The zines were part of the evidence that his wife and others were guilty of the conspiracy and assistance to terrorists crimes that they were convicted of. Duh.

@jfeldis @FreedomofPress What was the evidence he was convicted of concealing? Zines. What crime did the zines contain evidence of? The First Amendment's protection doesn't depend on what label prosecutors use, it depends on the substance of the charges.

Daniel Sanchez-Estrada was convicted of concealing evidence (as stated in the linked guardian article) which is not protected speech. He was not convicted based on the content of the materials By making such a false claim shows that @FreedomofPress is corrupt or partisan and should not be considered a legitimate defender of free speech

@VISAINAMERICA @FreedomofPress I don't think those have a stated mission of combatting "views, or opinions" that "are inimical to the interests of this state and the United States of America" and those states were not considering legislation to fight "ideologies inconsistent with American principles."

Next time, take a look at this and try to provide a good-faith distinction as to why the Florida-proposed unit will be different. It will be interesting to read. - New York State Police operates a Counter Terrorism Unit tied to the New York State Intelligence Center (NYSIC), emphasizing threat detection and prevention through multi-agency fusion.​ - California Highway Patrol has a Counterterrorism and Threat Awareness Section with Regional Threat Assessment Centers coordinating with FBI Joint Terrorism Task Forces.​ - New Jersey's Office of Counter-Terrorism (under the Attorney General) coordinates statewide law enforcement efforts and liaises with federal partners.

Florida wants its own CIA. That could lead to unchecked domestic surveillance A bill to create a state intelligence operation would allow scrutiny based on "opinions" — and could prompt other states to follow FPF's Seth Stern and Lauren Harper explain: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Incarcerated people have long faced discipline for reading literature that guards don't like. Now Daniel Sanchez Estrada is facing federal trial tomorrow for possessing anarchist zines. Jeremy has more in @theintercept theintercept.com/2026/02/16/dan…

@theQR_editor @johncusack Listen to the interview (cool thing about nonpaywalled content is you can look beyond the headline). We talk about how outlets that unpaywall public records reporting and other public service stories end up getting more subscribers and making more money.

@johncusack God forbid journalists should be paid for their work? Not one person whined when they had to pay for a newspaper. Just because digital publication is the new norm doesn’t mean journalists don’t need to eat.

@OrinKerr The exception requires probable cause that Natanson violated the EA. Judges decide whether probable cause exists for warrants. Wouldn't the PPA probable cause element then have to be disclosed? What's the alternative? Officers just get to think probable cause into existence?

Am I missing something here? Otherwise this seems just a clearly bogus argument. (Maybe I'll blog it, if there's interest.)

Unless I'm missing something, this is just absolute nonsense. The law has an explicit statutory exception that clearly applies in this case. And even if it didn't, the PPA is not an "adverse authority," as it's utterly irrelevant to probable cause. nytimes.com/2026/02/05/us/…

@Mike___Kilo @FreedomofPress @theintercept He asked the judge to make the court sketch artist blur his face because someone might see the court sketch and track him down while maintaining a LinkedIn profile with his face on it. Nothing to do with any mobs.

Filming ICE is an act of journalism. Cell phone footage is vital source material for reporters who can’t be everywhere at once. Shooting, killing and other targeting of those documenting news is an attack on press freedom and all else good in the world.  startribune.com/videos-show-fe…
