Until they apologize for getting Rosanne canceled over a tweet I have no sympathy for them losing their jobs for the same reason. They called it "accountability". Ok. It still is. You set the standard. Live with it.

Funny how this papers censors opinions and facts but that's ok.

Because private companies have the right to suspend or fire employees who violate company values, which could lead to violence, lawsuits or loss of company profits.

So the company you work for has the authority to restrict your right to free expression on social media and fire you if you post something they disagree with?

Employee A inflates expense account and pockets $1000. Employee B posts/rants on social media company loses a $100k customer. Bottom line both instances lose money for company. What's to understand ??

It’s disrespectful to Charlie. He didn’t believe in empathy and was not ignorant to the dangers of gun violence here. He would be disgusted by all of the crying people are doing. If you respected him you would respect his opinions abt this

We're not the world's police and we executed those people in cold blood. If Venezuela wants to kill its citizens without proof and without a trial, then leave the US out of it.

Venezuela is helping the companies that make Narcan.

I think if it were Obama, nothing would be said about it. I think just because it’s President Trump there is the hate that some have for him. Not this much controversy when all the other changes were done by other presidents. None of this is costing taxpayers as it has in the past.

Please provide an example of such an expansive change ... this ballroom is likely to turn out to be larger than the White House itself! I don't doubt we'll see a TRUMP sign on it before it is finished!

Trump is improving the White House, and he is using private funding to do that.

Right ... "private funding" in exchange for pardons and other favors. The more accurate description is BRIBES.

Separation of the rich and poor is getting wider. I was never invited to watch a movie in the movie room just like I'll never be invited to any dances.....I think we'd be better off if they tore down the west wing

It's history, it's respect and honor, the ballroom was never approved and the drawings show it overshadowing the White House itself. Awful
