# Former US vice president Kamala Harris has criticised president Donald Trump’s administration over its assault on free speech, saying this is an outright abuse of power. This follows the indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show from ABC over his comments about the assassination of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk. Harris says Trump’s administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who speaks out. She adds that media corporations, from television networks to newspapers, are capitulating to these threats.
