Holy Hell. I guess it’s time for the U.S. government to requisition and nationalize StarLink. Our military and government systems CANNOT be beholden to insane, racist, misogynistic private citizens just because they are billionaires.

Former “free speech” crusaders have ushered in an unprecedented campaign of censorship in Texas universities, resulting in pulitzer winning books being banned, medical and scientific facts being suppressed, and entire fields of study deemed “woke” being eliminated www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...
Over the past decade, some conservatives have invoked principles of academic freedom and free speech in order to subvert both. These conservatives mocked “snowflakes” and “trigger warnings,” and then passed legislation making it illegal to hurt white students’ feelings by discussing historical or contemporary events. They invoked academic freedom and then began erasing fields of study they found politically inconvenient. They railed against “indoctrination,” and then argued that the state is entitled to control everything said in the classroom.

Common Cause just told a federal judge that Trump's taxpayer funded propaganda ads ran hundreds of times after a TRO ordered an immediate halt to them. The two-page notice buff.ly/u2GESdN
1. On October 12, at 1:31 p.m. Eastern, the Washington Post reported that two ads continued airing after the Court issued the Order and into the early hours of
Monday, October 12, on multiple programs, including “60 Minutes,” “ABC World News Tonight,” and “America’s Funniest Home Videos.” Ex. A.
2. According to AdImpact data retrieved at 2:45 p.m. Eastern today, Defendants’ ads ran in nearly 400 spots on programs that began airing at 7 p.m. Eastern last
night—that is, after this Court’s order was in effect. Ex. B.
3. Specifically, “Final Battle” ran in 193 spots during “60 Minutes,” which aired on CBS starting at 7 p.m. Eastern. Ex. B.
4. And “Maduro” ran in 198 spots during “America’s Funniest Home Videos,” which aired on ABC starting at 7 p.m. Eastern. Ex. B.
