He didn’t even say anything other than the truth and played videos of the president himself ignoring the death and talking about his stupid ballroom that he was bribed with.
I refuse to deal with republicans who ignore these blatant fascist moves the adminstration makes. We would have had a normal country, but no. Project 2025 and the heritage foundation couldn’t have that, so they bought donald the presidency and got elon to fund the campaign.
It’s only a matter of time till people are arrested for talking out against donald trump and the fact he is a POS who ignores all law and order.
But many of us would rather be locked up than bow down to a pedophile.

Jimmy should run for office now. I don’t think Jimmy Kimmel is some kind of saint but they put him in a place of power by pulling his show.
Could you imagine an entire administration run by talk show hosts.
Kimmel, Colbert, John Stewart.
I’m not sure they’d do a good job or that they’d even side with the public with issues or avoid bribes, but they’d be charistmatic AF.
Colbert is the one well placed, to dust off his satire schtick after a maga conversion on his own channel.
He should quit the network early and start, the colbert reported.
Kimmel idk, but these networks will find conservatives have no sense of humor and cannot drive ratings. If they censor things the right cries about no one will subscribe to their dogshit streaming platforms.
The satire schtick won’t get Colbert elected. Kimmel is charismatic and likeable with his own personality. No point in chasing conservative votes; just get liberals excited and showing up.
I’m not saying for Colbert to run for office, I just want him to dust off his satire bit, I think he has way more effective at that than he has been as a establishment Democrat cheerleader.
But since we are on the subject, I do want to see Jon Stewart as the Presidential nominee in 2028, at the head of a host of Reform minded candidates be there Progressive or other flavor of candidate matching their constituencies, that do not think people should be as fucked by the super rich without their consent.
Because that is almost everybody electorally. Red State and blue. And the only way to win here now is with a massive electoral Landslide and even then it might be hard to overcome the Party Machine fixing the elections every way they can.
This must be this famed “free speech” that JD Vance lectured the Germans about when he visited Munich.
You only get in trouble for telling the truth.
there goes your freeze peach Muricans
Wow, now they are just pulling whoever without a real reason or even a pretext.
It is cancel whoever we want because we can.
the offensive comments:
We had some new lows over the weekend, with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it,
- Kimmel source
I was so certain that he was being cancelled over something else that he said, but no!
I watched the whole video here and that was it! In addition to some regular dunking on Trump about how he was in the 4th stage of Denial, Construction.
This is absolute insanity.
Snowflakes.
Can’t risk offending the boy king now can we?
The king who went golfing instead of attending Jesus 2’s vigil-a-go-go?
Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
That’s offensive? I guess pointing out the obvious is just to much for them to handle.
Reality has a liberal bias
The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
Trump in 2018:
“Just remember: What you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening.”
If you’re seeing and reading Fox News, that’s probably true.
Truth has a well known liberal bias.
And yet they failed to stop any of this
Only so much you can do when the voters choose fascism.
The only thing they needed to do was make themselves more appealing than fascism, and they failed
And those same people are still in charge of the opposition, hiring hordes of trolls on social media to distract from their failure and blame it on voters.
Logically it doesn’t make any sense, they nominate people that aren’t popular that can’t win, or if they do win like Joe Biden they’re going to do nothing with it and hand it right back.
This is what controlled opposition looks like
The left also scrambled to say, “Not my guy!”
Hell, I’ve seen people downvoted around here for mentioning the shooter had a trans lover/roommate. No idea if that’s true, seems a little too pat, but I’ve read the alleged text messages.
Nothing there screams fake to me, and this administration sucks at impersonating liberals, let alone Trump himself. They’re hilariously obvious when they try.
In any case, a Hitler Youth recruiter got blown out the neck from a 30.06 cannon shell. Fine by me, whoever did it, for whatever reason they did it. Just glad he didn’t use an AR-15! :)
“Nothing there screams fake to me”
Are you wearing ear plugs, by any chance?
What do you mean? I always talk about “retrieving things” and “my vehicle”. Grabbing things from “cars” (or “trucks” ) is for cucks, and I’m a macho alpha male™®.
I’ve known plenty of people who talk exactly like that.
And if you’re planning a murder, using “tactical” terms seems pretty normal to me.
This comment smells of hopium, what about that seems fake to you?
That’s how far the scales have tipped now, sadly
That’s just the actual events of record!
It’s funny how absolutely true this statement is too. I’ve seen so many headlines over the past week about what political affiliations he might have. And we really still don’t know.
Didn’t you know that having a queer friend magically turns all your right wing extremist indoctrination, hate, and bloodthirst leftist! Queer people can turn you trans-political, now.
The guy murdered a conservative talking head and no one else, in a crowd of thousands. You can’t possibly suggest he’s not 100% liberal?
E: you people are literally insane.
The guy murdered one man, and no one else, in crowd of thousands. You can’t possibly suggest he’s not 100% a woman?
E: you people are literally insane.
Was he notorious for being a man?
The guy murdered a human talking head and no one else, in a crowd of thousands. You can’t possibly suggest he’s not 100% Martian?
Was he notorious for being a human?
Have you not noticed how often right wingers get into public fights with each other? They hate their own people nearly as much as they hate everyone else
Mocking Donald Trump as well, Kimmel said on his show Monday: “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”
That is so tame. And accurate.
Extra crazy because he didn’t even speak poorly of Charlie or say any distasteful comments. He didn’t even really make a statement about the situation at all. He just said MAGA is trying to categorize the shooter as not them and played some clips of Trump being 100000x more interested in the new Whitehouse ballroom than the public assassination of his dear friend.
You can’t cancel someone over comments they didn’t make. This is pandering, plain as day. Same reason Colbert got canceled.
Colbert cancellation was more clever. There are numbers that they could point to (though others that paint him well). They gave him a few months to finish things out. It was temporally too close to the merger talks but besides that the façade could’ve been worse.
This time it’s a nakedly anti-1A FCC. :(
Well I mean what do you expect? it’s a fascist country, that’s what facists do.
you think Nazi Germany allowed anti-party rhetoric or even anything that they could consider remotely offensive to them? no. they got rid of those people.
Americans, please don’t allow yourselves to become more Nazi than you already are.
Americans, please don’t allow yourselves to become more Nazi than you already are.
It’s too late. Just nuke us.
Americans, please don’t allow yourselves to become more Nazi than you already are.
What are we supposed to do? I always imagined in Nazi Germany that the govt was working against the wishes of the people and they just didn’t fight back but Americans seem to constantly celebrate being stepped on and now I’m thinking maybe the Germans did too. I just never could have imagined humanity was capable of ignorance of this scale.
Germans did in fact like being stepped on just the same and when the war was over one of the biggest immediate issues of the allies was the de-nazification of the remaining population. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denazification
Leaders like these tend to be a symptom of a deeper systemic issue, rather than a pesky bug you could just squash and move on.
I think it’s just not how people feel and this illusion is one of the ways the Nazi party was so effective. You have bot’s, paid-pundits, and controlled social spaces just like the propagandist’s and silencing of the dissenters before. Look at any poll, local action, or how people around you actually feel. I live in deep red country and everyone who was so pro-maga before kinda are just silent at this point on the actions of the administration but can still focus in on the “them” like they’re told. Only takes a few questions to break it down though with reality.
The breaking up of communities is one of the most effective tactics they have, it should be a focus of progressive factions to double down on keeping open communication between neighbors.
how people around you actually feel
There are lots and lots of people around me who feel this way. That’s what makes it so difficult and so hopeless to fight back. We’re not just fighting authorities, we’re fighting our families and friends, everyone of of them so dug in that they will hate and insult you if you so much as try to have a conversation about it.
I think I understand your situation, a lot of the times I feel the same way. I think it’s more realistic to focus on those close to us versus trying to solve the countries problems by ourselves. Everything I read or hear is just a study in what are good arguments to bring up and positions that make sense while reaching across the aisle. I consume conservative media and engage in online debates with conservatives for this very reason. It’s all just a preamble to understand and try to reach someone on a topic.
There are definitely times and places where it’s not welcomed (like in group settings), but if you continue educating yourself and understanding what fallacy they’ve indoctrinated within themselves, you can find those good times to engage. For example a recent immigration conversation I had with a relative, didn’t go so well. Afterwords I reflected and found a good response asking them, “If masked armed people showed up to your neighbors house and started dragging people out, would you intervene or sit there watching?” It put them into the perspective of actually being there during a raid of someone they knew and benefited from, also allowed them to feel the fear and hopelessness when authoritarians come crashing into your reality. It’s not much but it’s a start and you just gotta go from there one step at a time.
I do hope some reality tv stars speak out. It’s a win/win either some networks grow a backbone or we get some trash off tv.
John Oliver’s gonna have one hell of a field day on sunday
You know what they say, “Field day on Sunday, deported on Monday.”
Wait…
Who says that?
Isn’t John Oliver a US citizen?
Yeah, but he’s got that nose, doesn’t he?
Deporting US citizens isn’t new?
Considering his parent company want to get bought by Paramount, I doubt it.
The Labour Party and ACAB squirms in response.
oh i know an orange reality tv star that will speak out for sure.
This isn’t even cancel culture at this point. It’s a violation of our rights to free speech.
Trump had Colbert cancelled and said Kimmel was next on Truth Social back in July: https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114874422468516376
The FCC chairmen threatened ABC: https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/brendan-carr-abc-fcc-jimmy-kimmel-charlie-kirk-1236522406/
Direct threat from the administration:
“Frankly, when you see stuff like this, I mean, we can do this the easy way, or these companies can find ways to change conduct, to take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”
“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” the host said.
Wild watching free speech crash and burn in American. This isn’t a company pulling him for his speech, this comes as a direct threat from the government regarding his speech.
FCC Chairman Brendan Carr:
“Frankly, when you see stuff like this, I mean, we can do this the easy way, or these companies can find ways to change conduct, to take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”
One’s opinion on Kirk’s murder is the litmus test. You one of us or one of them? The administration is excelling at not letting a tragedy go to waste. Where were the Democrats when the Minnesota legislators were murdered? Nope. Seems the left is too fair to spin propaganda. And that’s why the fascists have won. It’s over. They’ve won.
Get armed, learn and train, defend yourselves even if it means your personal extinction, not an easy path. In any case, hunker down and wait for history to eat them. Gonna take some time, always does, and evil always eats itself in the end.
Lmao, I don’t like him, but that’s pretty fucked. I don’t see how anyone could view this as anything but harassment and intimidation. They really want a new civil war don’t they? Accelerationists are eating great lately. That should scare the shit out of everyone, left and right included.
Yeah I also dislike Jimmy Kimmel but his comment seems super tame

Huh?
Who said anything about lame?
