Let’s hear it you denounce this…and try to do it without “what about”-ing this time.

Anyone find it ironic Trump uses the platform of “free speech absolutist” Elon Musk to discuss his directives limiting speech?
 
My position hasn’t changed. As one of the few posters on this board who supports free speech regardless of the political viewpoint of the speaker, I find this objectionable and dangerous.

Good to see you exhibit some principles.

To be clear, I do think there are such things as illegal protests (typically ones that turn into riots)… but I don’t think most college protests fit that description, nor do o think students should be threatened for peacefully protesting, even at events that do turn riotous.

I also don’t think Jan 6th folks should have been in trouble if they were non violent and stayed out of Areas being used for official election proceedings.

pretty much gatherings and protesting should be protected. Violence, property damage, theft, and preventing official government proceedings should not.

Funny none the less.

When have the majority of Republicans been anything but lemmings to Trump.

Among speech watchers****


Well below those of his 1st term, and Fox News had the highest viewership at 10 Million+....

Per Nielsen, over 70% of the people in that 36 Million were 55 and Older.
 
Funding cuts for research are now leading to many public and private universities pulling Grad acceptances / assistantships from PhD's and other grad students. These aren't just in underwater basket weaving either.... I'm seeing rescinded offers from Chemistry departments, Cancer researchers, etc...

Funny that conservatives lauded Trump for make-a-wishing a kid with cancer at the SotU whilst also ignoring him cutting funds for cancer research.


Is this what "Making America Great Again" looks like?

Is that the kid the Dems wouldn’t acknowledge? Didn’t watch the speech but heard something to that extent ?

You don’t get to use terminally ill kids as a ploy to pander to your base when you are simultaneously screwing over tons of terminally ill and disabled kids by killing their health research funding and the education department that oversees their early childhood care… (as well as pushing vouchers through state houses that screw them over)

You were holding up one of those stupid signs weren’t you?

Every SOTU has used people of have suffered hardships. Not acknowledging a sick kid was a nice touch by the Dems. Makes it hard to speak against any cuts in funding now
