In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “The Trump administration and its MAGA allies have abandoned all pretense of supporting free speech in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, using the murder to justify an accelerating drive to criminalize criticism of the president,” Thomas Edsall writes.

As Trump floats the possibility of "compensation" for January 6th Insurrectionist Rioters, it's important to remember what many of them did, and for whom. Check out Issue #2 of 1/6: The Graphic Novel at tin.al/7LAD or www.OneSixComicsStore.com #RememberOneSix

Let's be clear, [#2]: the Trump-Musk mass firings of federal workers are about allegiance, control, and removing the guardrails that protect our Democracy. Journalists should stop using the term "cost-cutting." It's a loyalty purge.

Today we honor Fred T. Korematsu. During WWII, the U.S. gov’t forcibly incarcerated 120,000 people of Japanese ancestry (many U.S. citizens). Fred defied the gov’t’s orders & refused to report to the camps. He challenged the incarceration’s constitutionality & lost before SCOTUS in 1944. 1/2

Four years ago, a violent mob stormed the U.S. Capitol, egged on by Donald Trump and with the goal of overturning a free and fair election. It's crucial to remember what happened, what could have happened, and what still might happen. Read 1/6: The Graphic Novel at www.OneSixComicsStore.com
