Add your name to millions demanding Congress take action on the President’s crimes. IMPEACH TRUMP & PENCE!

Office Depot joins the likes of Nestle, Wayfair, TripAdvisor, Rachael Ray’s Nutrish pet food,  Expedia, Joseph A. Banks, Hulu, StitchFix, Atlantis Bahamas, Jenny Craig, and Johnson & Johnson in boycotting Ingraham’s show after her comments.

Any student should be proud of a 4.2 GPA —incl. @DavidHogg111. On reflection, in the spirit of Holy Week, I apologize for any upset or hurt my tweet caused him or any of the brave victims of Parkland. For the record, I believe my show was the first to feature David…(1/2)

I 100% agree an apology in an effort just to save your advertisers is not enough. I will only accept your apology only if you denounce the way your network has treated my friends and I️ in this fight. It’s time to love thy neighbor, not mudsling at children. https://t.co/H0yWs4zMGk

Kudos to these companies for standing up for what’s right in the face of such cowardice by the right-wing media.
