Comcast executives sent an email to employees endorsing free speech and warning that if you use that speech to criticize Charlie Kirk, you’ll be fired. The word “Orwellian” is overused but I can’t think of a better description. 404media.co https://www.404media.co/comcast-nbcuniversal-email-charlie-kirk/
Comcast Executives Warn Workers To Not Say The Wrong Thing About Charlie Kirk

An email sent to NBCUniversal employees, including journalists at NBC, MSNBC, CNBC, Bravo and more, eulogizes Charlie Kirk as an "advocate for open debate" and reminds staff that even milquetoast statements about Kirk's death can result in their firing.

Before and after it's revealed that the alleged shooter is a white male right-winger:

@PerryM

As US Army, I swore to defend the US Constitution in 1990. My oath hasn't expired in 35 years and for the last 14 years as a #homeless person, I have done everything possible to defend us homeless people.

The Silence Continues (Just Bob 538 @ https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3063551149211648869)

The silence is deafning. Always hearing about this country or that one, this group or that one but the silence continues for #homeless people.

(Amendment I) Sorry, you don't have the right to assemble in public space even in protest because your homeless.

(Amendment IV) Sorry, you don't have the right to be served a search warrant when we steal your only way to stay warm and dry.

(Amendment VIII) Sorry, your under arrest for trying to survive in public spaces in the middle of winter/heatwave after the city/state/federal has taken everything from you and there is absolutely no place to go to get out of the weather.

A short time ago, #Trump decided that 770,000 people have no US Constitution rights when he declared it #Illegal2BHomeless across the entire country. Not only do we now have to be on the lookout for city cops, shariffs, state cops, National Guards that also forgot the oath we say when joining the US Military, we have to be looking for every day haters who won't hesitate to kill us for simply not having a paid for place to live.

But the silence continues.

" ... Trump backed off his threats of a military incursion in Chicago as he talked to reporters Tuesday night at a Washington, D.C., steakhouse, where he was heckled by protesters."

"During a Fox News segment Tuesday, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi also said Chicago likely wouldn’t see a military intervention." https://blockclubchicago.org/2025/09/10/no-national-guard-in-chicago-after-all-trump-appears-to-sour-on-plan/

No National Guard In Chicago After All? Trump Appears To Sour On Plan

Despite Trump apparently changing his tune on sending National Guard troops to Chicago, federal immigration agents are in the city as part of Operation Midway Blitz.

"A judge warned Fri that the Trump admin is🚨"with a wink & a nod" deporting ppl to Ghana,💔only for Ghana to quickly re-deport them to countries where they face torture & persecution."

“What you’re doing, what appears to be happening, is truly disingenuous,” the judge said in an emergency hearing Friday in DC, after ATTYs for the deportees sued earlier in the day.

A lot of people seem to think that using "AI" to "enhance" blurry photos of faces is in any way effective, or acceptable, so here's a bit of an old chestnut.
Congratulations to everyone who has to spend the weekend trying to explain this to regular people.

404 Media, on the other hand ...

"Kirk is being posthumously celebrated by much of the mainstream press as a noble sparring partner for center-left politicians and pundits. Meanwhile, the very real, very negative, and sometimes violent impacts of his rhetoric and his political projects are being glossed over or ignored entirely."

Charlie Kirk Was Not Practicing Politics the Right Way

The mainstream media seems entirely uninterested in explaining Charlie Kirk's work.

1. In the immediate aftermath of Charlie Kirk's shooting, the WSJ laundered claims that "transgender symbols" were found with the shooter's gun. Now, a press conference reveals that NO such symbols were found. WSJ owes a full retraction and apology. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Press Conference: No "Transgender" Or "LGBTQ" Symbols Found At Kirk's Shooting

Yesterday, several media outlets claimed or strongly implied that "transgender symbols" were found at the scene of the gun used by Charlie Kirk's shooter. This turned out to be false.

US Senator Mark Warner warns that Trump is corrupting the US intelligence institutions by firing everyone who does not bend the knee.

In Denmark where I live, the state has outsourced internet surveillance to the NSA. What Warner is indirectly pointing out is: Trump is moving towards being able to abuse access to intel data from foreign countries like mine.

The man who wants to take Greenland is gaining access to the surveilance of everyone in Denmark.

Pull the plug.
