#BobIger, #Disney’s chief executive, & #DanaWalden, his head of #TV, were also hearing from skittish #advertisers & #employees who had begun to receive threatening messages. When the team reviewed #JimmyKimmel’s planned remarks, they grew concerned that his monologue would only inflame the situation further.

#Disney Pulled #JimmyKimmel As Pressure Built On Multiple Fronts
For #BobIger & his leadership team at Disney & #ABC, time was running out.
Jimmy Kimmel, one of the company’s biggest stars, was preparing to tape the Wednesday edition of his late-night show in Hollywood at 4:30PM. And he had written an opening monologue that would address a cascading political firestorm head-on.

Ohio Chaplain’s Case Shows How 9/11-Era Terror Rules Could Empower Trump’s Immigration Crackdown
---
The U.S. government is trying to deport Ohio children’s hospital chaplain Ayman Soliman, alleging tenuous connections to terrorism. If DHS succeeds, experts say it could hand the Trump administration a “sledgehammer” to use on mass deportations.

Nice #fascist #dictatorship the #maga criminals have managed to create in the US...
Here's hoping a second republic can be established as soon as possible, restoring #democracy 😔
I don't want to be alarmist, but "troops occupying major cities" seems like the kind of milestone that we'll look back on and regret that we didn't stop.

Another example of what happens in the #Trump admin if you dare report #facts
#Pentagon Fires the #Defense#Intelligence Agency Chief
The move comes weeks after the agency drafted a preliminary report contradicting Trump’s contention that US strikes had “obliterated” nuclear sites in #Iran.

"In melodramatic & cinematic terms", what we are seeing from the #MafiaDon Administration is EXACTLY what you picture in your mind an #Authoritarian#Dictatorship looks like.
"Masked secret police with no identification raiding homes and smashing windows. A scapegoated minority group blamed for all things." (I'd add "rewriting history" & "declaring inconvenient #facts to be lies.")
"Turning the military inward, threatening to revoke people's citizenship & jail them."

Absolutely fucking disgusted by the #US #Government right now. Wasting #tax #payer #dollars on this bullshit #propaganda all while taking away fund for the most vulnerable. Happy 4th of July EVERYONE! Welcome to the bullshit #dictatorship we've supposedly been fighting for 100 years. I am shaking I'm so pissed right now.
Just a reminder that the #West destroyed #Iran ’s #progressive #democracy in 1953, deposing a leader beloved of the people, & installed a #dictatorship in his place.
The #US & #UK have been terrorizing that country for as long as any of us have been alive.
It’s sick.

The thing that so easily allows an #authoritarian #dictatorship to seize power in #America is the extent to which Americans believe "it can't happen here".
That widespread notion is so ingrained that it acts as a sleeping pill, paralyzing any real action until it's too late.
I see big hedge fund managers and corporate leaders today cheering the fact that military is on streets for what local police could've easily handled.
