    Guess he’s gonna keep redrawing the same ignorant and inane cartoon over and over ad nauseam to milk those paychecks.

    Know how I know repugs are being silenced? It’s everywhere, whining on tv, radio, social media…comics. I say let them blather their nonsense, it broadcasts and proves their idiocy far and wide.

    While the government can’t restrict most speech, private companies can restrict all the f**king speech they want. Get a clue Mike. The right wing white supremacists called the Repiblican Party benefit mightily from their coverage by the media that attempts to report more fact than fantasy. Conservative speech is hardly restricted, and isn’t even conservative. It’s usually mere propaganda, and often simply lying. That’s why Lou Dobbs was axed. The pillow guy is a creep, a liar, and a very sick cult follower. Just like you, Mike.

    The First Amendment gives you the right to say what you want, but not the freedom from the consequences of what you say.

    Also that guy’s pillows suck.

    He is free to to say whatever he wants and the rest of us are free to not listen. Just because you have an opinion doesn’t mean that others have an obligation to help you share it.

    How is spreading known, provably false lies free speech? Why in the world would I want a known liar and prove autocrat to be President of the US??What we learned from Donald Trump is the importance of having a leader as President — which he was not. A leader would have immediately announced “A pandemic is coming!” And would have recognized it as a national crisis needing leadership. The leadership required would be establishing a national logistics support system. PPE, testing would have started from the top and explained to the states how they could access the system. Trump easily cost the US at least 200,000 additional deaths.Free speech or public health? Trump yelled “Fire” in a crowded theater.

    For Lester, Free Speech = Unlimited Lying. Does Lester have any teenage kids who can turn the tables on him about the car, about missing money, about drugs, about sexual activity? Let’s hope so. There’s nothing quite so alarming as chickens coming home to roost.

    I know I’ve said this a thousand times here, so I am just spitting in the wind. A right guaranteed in the constitution does not insulate you from the consequences of your actions. You have a right to own a gun, but that does not mean the law will protect if you go around shooting innocent people. Likewise, freedom of speech does not protect you if you defame, disparage or libel someone, meaning they can sue you for damages regardless of “freedom of speech”. And it certainly does not mean that privately owned media companies have to publish your views against their wishes. I remember many years ago, someone wrote an article in a Baton Rouge newspaper saying hateful things about atheist. An atheist responded with a letter dismantling all of the articles claims. However, the newspaper refused to publish the letter, and rather than complain about “freedom of speech”, the conservatives applauded the newspaper for refusing to publish “atheist propaganda”.

    This is a perfectly constructed cartoon showing how Mike Lindell is being suffocated by the media for expressing his opinion, and more so for having the audacity to present solid evidence (and it looks solid enough it should have prompted immediate investigations) of election tampering. The left, the media and the tech giants protecting their own interests over that of the American constitution are trying to destroy Mike Lindell, for being the Paul Revere of the twenty-first century.

    Stop lying, Lester. Lindell aired his cockamamie mockumentary for 6 hours straight on OAN and no one stopped him. It made him look like the nutcase he is but, again, no one stopped him. A reminder that the reason he got muzzled in the first place was that he violated the TOS of the media platforms.

    Sorry Mike, but no matter how many times you draw it, “Free Speech” does not apply for private businesses and is not free from consequence by those businesses.

    Note how NewsMax quickly shut down the Pillow Guy when he spouted false conspiracy theories because they did NOT want to be party to a multi-billion dollar lawsuit. Note how Fox dumped personalities for the same reason.

    And yet, here is Mike, posting this intellectually dishonest, malicious drivel on a platform seen by millions of people, both here oh GoComics, on Counterpoint, and on Washington Post Writers group, along with any other platform he has access to.

    Silencing “Free Speech” indeed!

    Lame. So many others did the same idea. And like them Mike seems to think that free speech means that everyone has to have a platform. If so why isn’t Ralph Nader ever on OANN or Newsmax or Breitbart? Why aren’t M’Lester’s lame toons on the NYT or the WaPO? Why are conservatives allowed to boycott Netflix? Poor poor Mike and the other con snowflakes so intent on their snow job.

    Love the self-important and obsessed Lefty Loonies who can find nothing better to do with their time than come to a comic strip they hate and sputter off like Three Mile Island at T Minus 10 Seconds at how much they hate being here.

    By the way, lefties, the judgement of history is slow but irrevocable, and will someday affirm the verdict that Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump were the greatest presidents of the modern era.

    For weeks the FBI, Democrats, and the fake news media have insisted there was no Antifa or far-left activist infiltration of the January 6th protests where activists stormed the US Capitol.

    We already know this is false. The individuals who entered the US Capitol and caused damage on January 6th were not all Trump supporters.

    Known members of Antifa were inside the Capitol and there was even an Antifa event called for that day at 11 AM nearby at the Washington Monument organized by John Sullivan that was closer to the US Capitol than the Ellipse where President Trump spoke to half a million supporters.

    It’s Time to Deprogram the Left

    The left’s dissolution of mandates that create law and order showcases their commitment to lawlessness.

    We might as well become an episode of the Walking Dead. That’s the kind of world liberals envision for us. Everything closed down. Everyone hungry, angry. Each of us a danger to our peers.

    These laws stood in place for decades to keep our society safe. They ensured specific protections to keep us from living in fear.

    Unfortunately, liberals negated those laws.

    If you want evidence, look no further than any protest on the left. Liberals walk around, burning down buildings, destroying statutes and landmarks. And it’s all in the name of social justice.

    And don’t fool yourself. No town is safe. Just pick any given location and watch as the places where families raised generation after generation surrounded by the roots of their histories. Then, try to calculate how long it took destroy it all. Meanwhile, Liberal governing bodies are nowhere to be found as the statues are tossed in the harbors. Well, Nancy Pelosi showed up. Just long enough to say “people will do what they do.”

    Trump was elected to enforce the existing laws conservatives and patriots coveted our whole lives.

    The Extreme Left Party exacts to dismantle our country of its laws and strip it of its resources solely for their gain. Imagine not having any allegiance to your own country. Disgustingly, they’ve sold their souls to the Chinese. Yet, they’d like to program us to think like them. Hell no. I will always side on the virtues and the spirit of America.

    The left stole an election and no one seems to care except the patriots. Unfortunately, the Left Extremist Party has no choice but to program our society into believing that Trump was the cause of the disorder. That’s the tactic in mind coercion. Blame others for the wrongs you are doing.

    “Marc Elias, a prominent Democratic election attorney, argued in a court filing this week that faulty voting machines may have misread thousands of votes in a House election in upstate New York, a claim similar to the debunked allegation some Republicans pushed regarding the 2020 presidential election.

    Elias, a partner at the firm Perkins Coie, made the argument in a court filing on Monday to challenge the results of the election in New York’s 22nd House district.

    Elias asserted that voting machines used in the district undercounted votes for incumbent Democrat Rep. Ted Brindisi."

    Democrats challenge Ohio electoral votesMove delays official certification of presidential election

    WASHINGTON (CNN) — Alleging widespread “irregularities” on Election Day, a group of Democrats in Congress objected Thursday to the counting of Ohio’s 20 electoral votes, delaying the official certification of the 2004 presidential election results.

    … starting with George W. Bush’s victory in the 2000 presidential election, Democrats contested election results after every Republican win.

    In January 2001, Representative Alcee Hastings of Florida objected to counting his state’s electoral votes because of “overwhelming evidence of official misconduct, deliberate fraud, and an attempt to suppress voter turnout.” Representative Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas referred to the “millions of Americans who have been disenfranchised by Florida’s inaccurate vote count.” Representative Maxine Waters of California characterized Florida’s electoral votes as “fraudulent.”

    In January 2005, in the wake of Mr. Bush’s re-election, Democrats were more aggressive. Senator Barbara Boxer of California joined Representative Stephanie Tubbs Jones of Ohio to lodge a formal objection to Ohio’s electoral votes. The objection compelled Congress to spend two hours in debate, even though Mr. Bush won Ohio by more than 118,000 votes.

    Representative Barbara Lee of California claimed that “the Democratic process was thwarted.” Representative Jerrold Nadler of New York said that the right to vote was “stolen.”

    What is going on now with the impeachment of trump is the basically the same thing that went on in the investigation of the assassination of President John Kennedy. There was a book that came out in the late 60’s called Plausible Denial. Later in the early 70’s a movie called Executive Decision. This book tore apart the Warren Commission Report that failed explain the reason for the smoke from the grassy knoll. It entered in the single bullet theory put forward by Gerald Ford, which was never proven and this is still a theory. They took Kennedy’s body back to Washington D.C. for the autopsy, when it had they had no jurisdiction. Lee Harvey Oswald was never convicted of the crime because was conveniently killed by a man who had MOB ties. There was a lot more in the book. People who questioned the Warren Report were labeled as crazies by the government and the media. Yet a poll listed 75% of the people believed there was a conspiracy. In 1975 it came to light that there was an audio recording another shot in the same time frame. It was analyzed an found out that was fourth shot. Congress listed that the assassination was a conspiracy. Which basically defunct the whole Warren Commission Report. This is what the republicans like Lindsey Graham, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Ron Johnson, Devin Nunes, Jim Jordan, Kevin McCarthy, Josh Hawley and many others. And also Fox News. Them it’s Plausible Denial Part 2. If this is deleted , I will keep reposting it.
