    Is this the same House GOP pressuring universities to expel students for protesting and pushing police to arrest and imprison protesters? That House GOP?

      The very same House GOP which removed impartial media companies from their offices in DC and replaced them with right wing partisan hacks.

    If they want to know who’s trying to ban lawful speech, maybe look toward their wannabe king and his Nazi sidekick.

    And to absolutely nobody’s surprise, Twitter was NOT asked to testify about their long and proven censorship of content when Trump or Musk are called out for direct lies in favor of the Trump campaign, and hiding content in favor of Biden/Harris. But noooo, this administration would never use the justice department for retribution. /s

      I suspect that they are just going to be instructing the companies on which speech they should be censoring, and which amplified.

    What a waste of taxpayer money. Maybe all that claptrap about government waste was just a confession after all… /s
