NYU cancelled a speech by the former head of Doctors Without Borders because she was going to mention casualties in Gaza and the impact of USAID cuts. Thank God we finally ended censorship and cancel culture on college campuses.

Cory Booker as he breaks Strom Thurmond's speaking record: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here despite his speech. I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people are more powerful."

Booker's team just told MSNBC they’ve gotten 14,000 voicemails from people supporting Cory’s filibuster and sharing their stories—and another 280 million people have liked his speech on TikTok alone. A masterclass in capturing attention. Well done.

WATCH: Sen. Cory Booker has broken the record for the longest U.S. Senate speech. Booker's marathon speech breaks the previous mark held by the late Sen. Strom Thurmond and his filibuster against the Civil Rights Act of 1957 that stretched for 24 hours and 18 minutes.

Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford on her victory, and to the people of Wisconsin for electing a judge who believes in the rule of law and protecting our freedoms.

I was on NPR's Morning Edition today. "This is what happens in a dictatorship, these are test cases. If the government can get away with doing this to these students, it can do it to everybody. Your citizenship won't save you, Your views will be next." npr.org/2025/04/08/nx-…

Students attending DoD schools across the world just walked out of class in a brave protest against the Trump Admin's Orwellian censorship regime. Instead of removing books from the shelves about America’s history and constitutional values, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth should try reading them.

There is one thing this memo against Mr. Khalil makes clear: the Trump administration is openly saying that his conduct was lawful, that he didn't break any laws, and that they are trying to deport him for his speech and his beliefs.

I'm sorry, who's doing the indoctrination, my 85-year-old Art History professor or Palantir, the company that's creating an AI-powered database of every single person in the United States to ease their deportation for wrongthink?

It’s crazy how good “conservatism has one principle: there must be an in-group for whom the law protects but does not bind, and an out-group for whom the law binds but does not protect” is and it comes from a comment on a blog

That's so weird because you think you can't ask El Salvador to return the man wrongly deported from Maryland when just last month you asked Romania to release a convicted rapist and sex trafficker. Or did you forget already?

On Lawfare Daily, Renee DiResta spoke to Dr. Mary Anne Franks, Becca Branum, and This American Adam about the TAKE IT DOWN Act, the first U.S. legislation to squarely target non‑consensual intimate imagery, and whether its sweeping takedown mandate will protect victims or chill lawful speech.
