Ricky Gervais on 60 Minutes Makes a Crystal-Clear Case for Free Speech
He put it perfectly: the great thing about freedom of speech is that I can say what I want, and you can say you're offended, and I get to decide whether I care or not.
Because let's be honest, there's nothing you can say that someone, somewhere won't find offensive.
That's why blasphemy laws are so absurd, they're basically trying to protect an all-powerful deity from having its feelings hurt.
At the end of the day, we should be free to criticise any idea.
Just because you're offended doesn't automatically mean you're right.
Spot on, Ricky. Free speech isn't about never upsetting anyone, it's about the right to speak anyway.
.@Comey indictment
This is the clip you should not miss.
In August, I reposted Comey's 2017 congressional testimony.
Under oath, Comey denied @ChuckGrassley that he leaked or authorized media leaks.
Newly declassified @FBIDirectorKash records reveal @Comey was at the heart of a strategic media leak strategy to shape the Russia collusion narrative and shape glowing coverage of the former FBI Director's controversial leadership.
In 2020, Comey was asked about the accuracy of his 2017 testimony and he said, “I stand by the testimony.”
My dear American friends,
We British Christians would get excited when, once a year, Queen Elizabeth would make a mild but sincere reference to the love of Jesus Christ in her Christmas address.
In Charlie Kirks' Memorial service, watched by tens of millions, I just heard:
- Multiple clear presentations of the gospel from men like @robmccoyus and @DrFrankTurek with clear calls to repentance and faith
- Worship songs full of Scripture sung by tens of thousands live and millions at home
- Personal testimonies of lives transformed by the work of Christ and the witness of believers
- Demonstration and explanation of the value of marriage, child-rearing and family
- Calls to Romans 13 for the government to bear the sword for the protection of good and punishment of the wicked
- Declarations of spiritual warfare on the forces of evil and promises to endure no matter the cost
- Calls to be prophets and call the nation to repent
- More Scripture references and Bible readings than I can count
- And a widow publicly forgiving her husband's killer because Christ forgave his killers on the cross.
All of it done before, and by, the most powerful people in your nation and the world.
You guys should be on your knees thanking God for your country. It is a light to the world.
Never stop fighting for it.
🚨 PLEASE LISTEN
I am tagging just as she asked, and I would ask all of you to please repost and tag …this needs to be done ASAP!

THROW FAUCI IN PRISON.
“Fauci knew that Remdesivir would kill you…”
“How?”
“Kidney-heart failure…all-organ collapse. You heard it again and again. We've never seen a virus that attacks the kidneys. It wasn't the virus; it was the Remdemsvir…”
Gavin Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass EXPOSED, they lied
Contractor walks into the City of LA One Stop Rebuilding Center handling the Pacific Palisades fires permits to speak directly to the source
- Building permits ARE NOT being issued
- Permit Fees ARE NOT WAIVED
- They can’t even answer how long it would take to get any kind of approval. They actually say they have no idea
- They literally don’t even know how long it could take to get a permit
- Not only are the permit fees not waived but this contractor says he’s even had to pay the fees on destroyed properties. The officer is unaware if any refunds can or will be issued.
- When asked if any permits are being issued he says “very very few,” so no.
This is all on camera, directly at the center
Both Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass LIED
SCOOP: The new house @KamalaHarris has just purchased in Brentwood, CA across from OJ Simpson’s old house is worth over $30 million.
It’s on a double lot and it has a canyon view and a massive gate and wall (how ironic for the Border Czar LOL).
Is she trying to keep the illegals out? Or the nanny?
Where did she get $30 million??? Isn’t her campaign over $20 million in debt?
Wow!
“THE ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL” has PASSED the House of Representatives! This is arguably the most significant piece of Legislation that will ever be signed in the History of our Country! The Bill includes MASSIVE Tax CUTS, No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Overtime, Tax Deductions when you purchase an American Made Vehicle, along with strong Border Security measures, Pay Raises for our ICE and Border Patrol Agents, Funding for the Golden Dome, “TRUMP Savings Accounts” for newborn babies, and much more! Great job by Speaker Mike Johnson, and the House Leadership, and thank you to every Republican who voted YES on this Historic Bill! Now, it’s time for our friends in the United States Senate to get to work, and send this Bill to my desk AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! There is no time to waste. The Democrats have lost control of themselves, and are aimlessly wandering around, showing no confidence, grit, or determination. They have forgotten their landslide loss in the Presidential Election, and are warped in the past, hoping someday to revive Open Borders for the World’s criminals to be able to pour into our Country, men to be able to play in women’s sports, and transgender for everybody. They don’t realize that these things, and so many more like them, will NEVER AGAIN happen!
Welcome to ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY AMERICA.
Republican Congress REFUSES to do their job:
"Nothing we can do."
RINOs keep selling us out:
"Nothing we can do."
Leftist judges defy the sitting president:
"Nothing we can do."
Mayors and Governors defy the sitting president:
"Nothing we can do."
Congresswoman helps ILLEGALS to stay in our country:
"Nothing we can do."
Democrats DEFRAUD THE AMERICAN PEOPLE with an INSANE PRESIDENT for 4 years:
"Nothing we can do."
INSANE Democrat president opens our border to terrorists and criminals:
"Nothing we can do."
So the question becomes:
If the GOP won't ever demand accountablity for even THE GREATEST CRIMES...
...WTF do we even need them for?
The simple points that are meaningful to me are:
- The ARRCA witnesses showing JOK was not hit by a car. (Injuries are not consistent with)
- Why are so many witnesses on the CW side so evasive. They act like folks hiding something.
- And the investigation being just an absolute train wreck. Where the lead case agent was fired for bias in this case.
It’s for these reasons I feel the CW falls well short of the standard of eliminating reasonable doubt.
Just my opinion… always happy to hear others & discuss.
Today’s animal welfare hero is @NiallHarbison.
Niall rescues, feeds and rehomes hundreds of dogs in Thailand every year. 🐶
Thank you for caring Niall 🙏.
