Tim Walz just spread misinformation in service of making the case for government censorship. He said it’s illegal to yell fire in a crowded theater. That’s a myth. The expression refers to a *nonbinding* claim in a 1919 Supreme Court opinion that was *overturned* in 1969.
It may seem like what's happening in Brazil has nothing to do with us, but it does. Brazil is a test case for the kind of censorship Kamala Harris wants to impose in the U.S. How do we know? Because we've caught her and Biden funding it. www.public.news/p/kamala-har...

Members of Congress demand that the US government cut off aid and advice from the State Department, FBI, and CIA intermediaries to the South American giant, given its turn toward dictatorship

Wow — massive free speech victory! Europe’s top censor has quit. This comes a few weeks after he got in trouble for sending an open letter to Elon Musk claiming his upcoming interview with Donald Trump might violate Europe’s censorship laws.

Caros amigos, Cheguei em segurança e consegui atravessar a fronteira! Obrigada pelos seus pensamentos e orações por mim. 🙏🏻🇧🇷✊🏼 Dear friends, I made it through! Thank you for your thoughts and prayers for me. 🙏🏻🇧🇷✊🏼
Eu sei que as coisas parecem sombrias no Brasil, mas o mundo está observando e reagindo. A mídia, até mesmo a de esquerda, está denunciando o ditador Moraes. e agora o governo dos EUA emitiu uma queixa formal — e um aviso.
I know things appear dark in Brazil, but the world is watching and reacting. The media, even left wing, are denouncing the dictator Moraes. and now the US government has issued a formal complaint — and warning.
Tomorrow, I fly to São Paulo to join other lovers of free speech to protest censorship, including the X ban. There's a chance I'll be arrested. It's worth the risk. The greatest threat to our freedom doesn't come from totalitarians. It comes from our fear of them. www.public.news/p/i-am-under...

The greatest threat to our freedom isn't the totalitarians. It's our fear of them.

Você é um ditador. Você está destruindo a liberdade de expressão e a democracia. Que vergonha.

Lula@lulaoficialbluesky.bsky.social · 2y agoEsse país tem uma chance. Deus é tão generoso que sempre nós dá uma chance. Esse país será do tamanho e da qualidade que a gente quiser. Mas só vai ser grande se tiver quem o conduza com a soberania do povo.
Você é um ditador. Você acabou de banir X. Que vergonha. O mundo inteiro está assistindo.

Brazil's Supreme Court just banned X and announced an $8,900/day penalty for those who use a VPN to evade it. Don't dismiss what's happening because it's Brazil. It isn't an outlier. It's the start of the totalitarian future George Orwell presciently predicted in "1984."

Facebook & YouTube say they're "social media platforms" but they're not. They censor accurate info in response to White House demands & spread state-sanctioned disinfo. Congress should stop protecting them from lawsuits, which enables their abuse of power https://www.foxnews.com/video/6332090144112
The White House says it didn't censor anyone, but new emails show it demanded Facebook censor posts about the lab leak. "Can someone quickly remind me why we were removing... claims that Covid is man made”? “We were under pressure from the administration… to do more" public.substack.com/p/whi…
