Where?

All sorts of places, including some unlikely ones. California, Massachusetts, Maine, and Texas all pulled licenses for refusing to uphold the narrative.

Washington, Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois, New York, New Jersey, and Arizona all threatened to do so, though I have been unable to determine whether any licenses were actually pulled.

California threatened criminal charges, though I have no evidence that any were ever actually filed.

I don't think any of that is true.
ok.
