Lately we've seen a lot of reminders from Democrats like Sen. Elizabeth Warren about how "censorship" is a really bad thing, even if nobody is actually being censored.
Jimmy Kimmel is one of the "censored" Trump critics who was not a victim of government censorship, no matter how much the Democrats tried to make that the case:
Everyone who spoke up against Trump’s censorship of Kimmel showed that the First Amendment is not for sale.

But the fight isn't over. Trump won't stop pressuring media companies to erode free speech in exchange for secure mergers and regulatory favors.
We must keep fighting.
It’s not a question of whether you agree with Jimmy Kimmel.

When someone uses their government position to threaten speech they don't like, that undermines the First Amendment and our entire democracy.
Everyone should care about this—no matter what your political view is.
Let's rewind the tape a few years.
A reporter caught up with Sen. Warren recently about her party's positions on the flat-out censorship that took place in 2020 and 2021, and Warren couldn't have walked away fast enough -- she might have even broken the four-minute mile with this performance. Watch and marvel:

Wow, Warren's FAST when she wants to be!
I give her credit for fast walking as fast as she did for her age.. That’s gotta be the Native American in her. https://t.co/5ZQew9xA94

Part of Warren's Cherokee heritage no doubt.
