He got basically slap on the wrist and you call that a violation of free speech. Is this a clown show?
No American citizen should be detained by CBP for speech. Period. It’s dangerous & unprecedented.

Neo Nazis have not been detained by CBP for their speech. A few may have been punched by private citizens but surely you can discern the difference between an individual and a state action?
Not sure what you are arguing. It seems you agree that it's a problem if left leaning people are prevented from speaking. Why is it not also a problem if right leaning people are prevented? And if some political views are protected while others are not, who gets to decide?
Were any American citizens who hated Biden & posted about it detained by CPB? No. That never happened! So what on earth are you talking about?

Why Trump Suddenly Declared Victory Over the Houthi Militia
Wow. What a total debacle.
What a quote: “Mr. Hegseth, people with knowledge of the discussions said, went back and forth, arguing both sides.”
Lack of judgment on display, over & over again, with Hegseth.

Masked federal agents aren’t exactly Trump’s secret police. But they are hiding from accountability.
This country is breaking my heart and my brain right now. What are we doing? Did anyone vote for this???
So now American citizens are going to be detained & questioned by CBP if we post on social media about hating Trump? Is this really what is going to happen in this country? Does anyone in the GOP have a problem with this rapid descent into fascism? Because that’s what this is! 😡😡😡
“A review of Hegseth’s thesis by The Daily Princetonian, in consultation with three experts on plagiarism, found eight instances of uncredited material, sham paraphrasing, and verbatim copying.”
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth ’03 ‘plagiarized’ small portions of his senior thesis, experts say. But how serious is it?

Nothing like the meritocracy!
No, President Trump: Less traffic at our ports means less work for the men and women who run them, like the thousands of Marylanders who power the Port of Baltimore.
That's not a good thing. These tariffs will tear apart our economy and hurt our communities — and it's entirely Trump-inflicted.
REPORTER: But we're seeing as a result that ports here in the US, the traffic has really slowed and now thousands of dockworkers are truck drivers are worried about their jobs
TRUMP: That means we lose less money ... when you say it slowed down, that's a good thing, not a bad thing
He’s so so dumb 🤦🏼♀️
