Keep going! If we the people can influence Kimmel's situation we can do so much more. Keep going‼️❤️‍🔥

A point that needs to be made explicitly: Jimmy Kimmel faced down Donald Trump and won. Period.

“Trump can talk tough, puff out his chest and act like he’s an unstoppable force. But he’s not. Money talks. The masses talk, and they matter.”

My column:

Post the wins.

Think about how consumers and market forces made these giant powerful companies change course and — here’s the important part — defy Trump.

Now consider doing it for something bigger than Jimmy Kimmel.

The Epstein Investigation is so much bigger than you can imagine. It is not only about justice for survivors—it is also about the institutions and systems that protected rich and powerful men they knew were abusing women and children: the banks, the government agencies, and other powerful people.

"Our opposition and upset over Jimmy Kimmel being taken off air have led to Kimmel coming back. Let's organize that much noise for reporters like Mario Guevara detained (despite being here legally) for filming police and ICE." www.commondreams.org/news/mario-g...

"Beyond thin" is how the GOP rolls when it does any investigation or create any policy.

They are not serious people.

Kimmel blackout is what happens when your TV isn’t locally sourced When most Americans weren't looking, a handful of companies seized control over what you see on your local TV channels.

Will Bunch: Folks had no idea who owns their local TV stations - until large, faceless corporations, Sinclair and Nexstar, said they can't watch Jimmy Kimmel because of politics. This is why they've been warning us: media consolidation is a threat to democracy.

“Suck it Sinclair”, a collaboration including Seattle Indivisible, led by @DefundMusk, is calling out Sinclair, Nexstar and KOMO to stop complicity with the administration’s silencing of Kimmel and free speech. 1/3 Www.suckitsinclair.com #suckitsinclair #localnews #seattle @defundmusk.bsky.social

Nexstar and Sinclair chase money and mergers. But here’s the truth: without viewers, they’re nothing.

Supreme Court judges should do more of this, press interviews too. They’re losing the public and need to account for what they are doing beyond written opinions.

-SCOTUS ruled that "common sense" racial profiling is A-okay when ICE does it

-The WSJ released Trump's vulgar Epstein drawing

-The White House sent out an invitation for the public hanging of the separation of church and state

-The ickiest Murdoch gets to keep control of Fox

At a recent conference my therapist attended, there was a panel on medical trauma & medically induced PTSD & she was glad.

Many of her clients are also #disabled &/or have #cancer & share stories similar to mine.

I still don’t think most able-bodied persons get how dangerously ableist drs can be.

Hundreds of women gathered in Mexico City to take part in a mass self-defense class, responding to persistent concerns over gender-based violence and street insecurity.

Pentagon authorizes up to 600 military lawyers to serve as temporary immigration judges Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has approved sending up to 600 military lawyers to the Justice Department to serve as temporary immigration judges, according to a memo reviewed by The Associated Press.

📍 𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋:

The Pentagon is deploying military lawyers — up to 600 — to act as temporary immigration judges amid mass firings and a soaring backlog. This dangerous move militarizes the courts and erodes due process. #AbuseofPowerWatch

The Epstein survivors bring to my mind the courage of France's Gisele Pelicot: "Shame must change sides."

A Poem In Honour Of Graham Greene:

Born of the Oneida,
voice carved from earth and drum.
He carried the old stories,
gave fire to new ones.
Canada weeps,
but his spirit walks on,
smoke rising,
His song never done.

Susan Collins has been a female megaphone for Republican men her entire career.
Her “con” was the clutching pearls.
She’s always been a woman pushing down other women.
She does what she is told to do by men in red hats.
