This is a break-the-glass moment for our democracy.

BREAKING: AFTER TRUMP’S PRESSURE,
ABC PULLS JIMMY KIMMEL OFF THE AIR INDEFINITELY

This is a break-the-glass moment for our democracy!

🚨FIRST: Donald Trump’s handpicked FCC Chair went on a far-right podcast and said, with the full weight of the federal government, that ABC should PUNISH Jimmy Kimmel.

🚨AND THEN: ABC BOWED to the pressure and suspended Jimmy Kimmel’s show INDEFINITELY -- putting our cherished First Amendment rights in grave jeopardy.

🚨SO NOW: We’re launching our EMERGENCY petition to stand with Jimmy Kimmel, defend freedom of speech, and fight back against the corrosion of our democratic freedoms. We’re calling for 10,000 signatures before midnight tonight -- please, will you stand up right now and sign your name? >>

Donald Trump is using every lever of power to rule like a king, threatening and coercing our media, universities and corporations to bend to his whim.

We can’t let this undemocratic, mob boss behavior go unchecked.

Good Democrats everywhere are fighting back with boycotts, protests and by signing petitions DEMANDING that these assaults on free speech end. If you -- and everyone else reading this email -- sign our petition defending freedom of speech, we’ll show Trump and House Republicans that a majority of Americans are building the movement that will end their dismantling of our democracy once and for all! Can we count on you to sign right now? >>

Thank you,
