kabar: “Dropped or not, this is pure intimidation with the very least being self-censorship by Rush. These are the new Nazis.”

Yes. They are. We’ve reached the point where they don’t even have to pass legislation. With the power the left wields at the federal level and the way the federal government has expanded into virtually everything, mere expressions of displeasure carry a lot of weight. The threat of “displeasure” if one doesn’t do what the oligarchs want is essentially extortion.

When members of government try to get networks to drop a show is that not a direct violation of the First Amendment? They are the ones who want to silence people not Conservatives. Rush has no power to shut people up but apparently those who have power don’t recognize that this is not one of their powers. I say Impeach those politicians who call to silence people. Too bad we don’t tar and feather them anymore.
