It’s up to news networks to stand up to the bullshit threats from the FCC and its commissioner. Bring a lawsuit, it's an easy win. “The giant corporations should make it their business to defend the First Amendment, or stay the heck out of the news business altogether.”

The Fourth Amendment protects against warrantless searches. But government agencies are exploiting the “data broker loophole” to get around it. Congress can close this gap. Watch @trevortimm.bsky.social explain and tell your representative: No spying on Americans without a warrant.
“I don't think the problem today is left versus right. It's truth versus lies. And we cannot give in to these lies.” Watch @jimacosta.bsky.social warn against Trump’s march toward a state-dominated media at a Friday hearing on the proposed WBD-Paramount deal, led by Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.
A Trump judicial pick ruled in his favor in a suit against the Pulitzer Prize Board — while seeking a federal nomination. Days later, the White House interviewed him for the job. That's why @freedom.press filed an ethics complaint. @seth-stern.bsky.social explains on @meidastouch.com:
It turns out, when news outlets actually challenge the Trump administration in court, they win. After @nytimes.com sued the Pentagon over its ridiculous loyalty pledge, a federal judge struck down the restrictions as violating the First Amendment. Watch @trevortimm.bsky.social explain.
FBI’s probe of Kash Patel reporting by The Atlantic's @sfitz787.bsky.social shows utter disregard for the First Amendment. It also exposes Patel’s argument as nonsense. If The Atlantic had “sham sources,” what is there to investigate? Fake sources can’t leak. @trevortimm.bsky.social explains:
FCC Chair Brendan Carr's threat to revoke broadcast licenses over Iran war coverage violates the First Amendment, and he knows it. It’s up to the networks to fight back — aggressively and in court. Watch our Executive Director @trevortimm.bsky.social explain.
Big court win against Trump for @freedom.press and @citizensforethics.org. A federal judge halted the White House effort to evade the Presidential Records Act — no president gets to claim America’s story belongs to them alone. Watch @laurenleharper.bsky.social explain. freedom.press/secrecy
LAPD obstructed, threatened, and arrested journalists covering the No Kings 3 protests — violating a federal injunction. Watch @adamrose.bsky.social — who was on the ground in LA that day — explain, and if you're a journalist facing a press freedom violation, contact @pressfreedomtracker.us
Section 702 lets the government spy on Americans’ communications without a warrant. Now Congress is debating renewing it for several years. We must not let that happen without major reforms. Watch @trevortimm.bsky.social explain and learn how you can help: freedom.press/reform-section-702

$13,000,000 for what’s going to end up being a bright green swamp. Way to go, Donald Trump. And of course, no explanation for the cost overrun.
Toronto Raptors coach Darko Rajakovic on Scottie Barnes: “I expect more from Scottie. The way he's playing, he's at 60% of a player that he's gonna be in 2-3 years. Scottie's gonna be one of the best players in the league, and he's already one of the best players in the league.”
“The next time we have that power, we need to use it, not for the special interests as Republicans have done but in service to the American people.” Fmr. AG @ericholder.bsky.social implores Democrats to use future power to pass legislation banning partisan, racial gerrymandering among other reforms.
Well, that isn't the word I would’ve used. But then I don’t own the Trump-to-English dictionary. A large faction of Americans is in an abusive relationship, and they don’t seem to care that they are.😢

1/2 My debate last night: – The US–Israel attack directly benefits Russia and its war against Ukraine. Oil prices have surged enabling further financing of 🇷🇺's aggression. – The alliance between Donald Trump’s administration and 🇷🇺 is visible in their support for the neo-fascist AfD in Germany. 👇

Big tech laying off workers while claiming AI will replace them is backwards. AI needs skilled people to work properly. Companies should upskill their workforce to use AI tools effectively instead of mass layoffs. #AI #TechLayoffs #Upskilling
