Jimmy Kimmel Hero of Democracy & Free Speech...


"During his Monday evening monologue, Kimmel suggested Kirk’s alleged killer, Tyler Robinson, might have been a pro-Trump Republican. “The MAGA Gang (is) 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 said. “In between the finger-pointing, there was grieving.”

Hell. Even the Republican Governor of Utah at his press conference said that Kirk's murderer was "one of us."

Interesting. It seems they took Jimmy Kimmel off the air not primarily for what he said on the air, but for what he was going to say...


Are the "powers that be" really trying to make Jimmy Kimmel the hero of Democracy & Free Speech? That would be fabulous. Jimmy is funny, rich, successful, talented, intelligent, accomplished. Not exactly Tom Joad, but, you know, Jimmy is a comedian & a truth-teller. A good combo. Jimmy Kimmel is you and me. Ha. Well, not really, but think of him as just a guy talking about the world with clarity, someone who respects truth, facts, telling it like it is, someone not afraid to go on network TV to make fun of & to laugh at Trump the wanna-be-American dictator. Disney took Jimmy off the air "indefinitely," for no good reason except that Jimmy likes to speak, "truth to power." Might be a good time for a Disney boycott. That seems like a capital idea. Vote with your hard earned dollars. I see my fellow Americans waking up. The first amendment to the Constitution, Free Speech is so fundamental to America, and to our Democracy. This attack on Jimmy Kimmel is an attack on all of us. Laughing at the wanna-be Dictator is essential and good for our mental health.
