It’s ok the threshold for being a rich white criminal is over 34 felonies, so since we cancelled DEI he’s got quite a few to go before he’s bad

Dude, I know it must be tough, all frustrated. Like Deangelo's disciples just barking at your evil edifice. Did you hook up with Jakee or my haiku? If not, just perhaps, another clue to its end...  It's night, dream dream, furin cleavage site. 

"I was born with the gift of laughter and a sense the world is mad" Joy went bust, out of business talking about white people,most Americans dislike it,race,race,race,white white ect...

You should try and make a commitment to knowing the whole truth of America. I'm sure MSM makes up ur day, so for a change, try to get another perspective.I'd suggest you start with small doses of VDH.Just do the intro, He will give you the other side of the story, another perspective.Once you build a tolerance you'll be able to handle the entire six minutes and just skip the hyperbolic intros. 

any taste in music?

VDH Kimmel at The  Daily signal

If DEI is your thing dive deeper,an hour with Stossel and Erec Smith. They highlight a need for Academia to focus on our classics.

hat’s what they couldn’t stand, and that’s what you’re going to get in Donald Trump’s free speech utopia - the chair of the FCC threatening to take your station off the air if you criticise the Republican Party.

  I think your conflating facts to fit your narrative. There was a saying echoed  here that; Correlation does not mean Causation. Correlation means two variables tend to change together, while causation means one variable directly causes a change in the other.

We should start a list of the the Useful Idiots that have been exposed. Those that find humor or value into such shallow laugh track humor form,correlate a moral and intellectual superiority,a sheeple,another correlation with those type of hosts. Jim Carreys cynical take from a decade ago,comes to mind.During a 2014 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Jim Carrey made a hand gesture by forming a triangle with his hands and sticking his tongue through it, referring to it as the "all-mocking tongue" and the secret symbol of the Illuminati. He did this as part of a satirical bit about Hollywood secrets, in which he claimed he was tired of "secrets and lies".

Whatever anyone thinks about whether Kirk should be criticised right now - Kimmel didn’t criticise him. At all.

 There was and is now again,a Custom out of respect a time frame immediately after a death, a time frame where it was frowned upon to speak ill of the dead, not a1A issue but out of courtesy. You would bit your tongue for a couple weeks, for those to mourn.Then if you are going to speak ill of the dead, you had better have all your facts correct.

The common Latin phrase for "don't speak ill of the dead" is "De mortuis nil nisi bonum". This translates literally to "Of the dead, nothing unless good," and its sentiment is to avoid saying negative things about a deceased person. The saying is attributed to the ancient Greek philosopher Chilon of Sparta, and it was popularized in Latin by Ambrogio Traversari in 1443 after he translated Diogenes Laërtius' ...I suppose a tradition going back to Diogenes may be a step, dare I say  Forward.

 In the words of of a man known for his musical talent in Cat Scratch Fever appropriately and Strangle Hold a tune to go into battle with.

"Imagine being more upset about a canceled tv show than about an assassination and still think you're a decent human being."

For old times and Context sake as some may think speech is violence. "Crush your face"  

In Ted Nugent's song "Stranglehold," the line "I'm gonna crush your face" is not meant literally but is a metaphor for his defiant attitude toward the music industry. It represents his refusal to conform to their demands and his determination to succeed on his own terms. 

The meaning behind the metaphor

• A reaction to being rejected: According to Nugent, record executives initially didn't want him to record "Stranglehold" because it lacked a traditional chorus. His retort, "Does f--k you ring any bells?" highlights the song's rebellious spirit. The line "crush your face" is a similar expression of defiance against those who doubted him.
• The feeling of being unstoppable: The lyric fits the song's overall theme of personal power and persistence. The narrator is a determined, forceful character who is not afraid to steamroll anyone who gets in his way.
• Overcoming adversity: The lyrics symbolize overcoming obstacles and breaking free from constraints placed on him by others, especially those in the music business. The "crush your face" lyric is a forceful way of saying that he will not be stopped.

And again, no ill was spoken of Charlie Kirk by Kimmel in the comments that the government decided were unnacceptable. None whatsoever.

You really should put quotation marks or something around the passages you copy and paste instead of trying to make it look like you're capable of writing them. You wouldn't want to be accused of plagiarism, would you?

Hi folks,

Looks like someone had a change of mind:  Jimmy Kimmel will return to ABC on Tuesday - oregonlive.com

Should never have happened in the first place.

From their official press statement, I don’t think concerns about free speech had anything to do with why they’re reinstating him. Should be an interesting monologue on the next show.

Hi murps,

From your link:  "We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday," said a statement from the network.

Talk about a Nothing Burger.

Did the link not work? This is the statement:

STATEMENT ON JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! FROM THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY

The Walt Disney Company issued the following statement today regarding Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country. It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive. We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.

Seems like they just had to have a talk with Jimmy. Again, the next monologue should be interesting.

I read it. I am just overwhelmed that they spent several days in thoughtful conversation with Jimmy which enabled them to see the light. Hallelujah! I just hope in the evenings they had a chance to consult their pollsters and lawyers.

I’m not sure they’re worried so much about legal problems or polls, but maybe Disney & Hulu cancellations are giving them pushback? I’m actually surprised they reversed course so quickly. I wonder how their prospective merger is going to go now.

DIS down 2% Market up 1%. Just one more reason for a heartfelt reconsideration.

While reversing the decision is positive it is still a win for Trump. This has the effect of cooling free speech as it has shown they are willing to do it. 

Apparently so many people were cancelling Disney subscriptions that their page crashed. So that probably had a lot to do with it. 

A true win for free speech would be firing the person who made the decision and issuing an apology and commitment to free speech.

Hi folks,

Looks like it is not going to be everywhere:  ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ set for return to ABC, but don’t expect to see it in Portland - oregonlive.com

The gutless Sinclair Broadcasting Group is TACO'ing out.

Jerry Baumchen

PS)  It now looks like Jimmie will be on YouTube.  I'll give it a try tonite.

PPS)  For those of you, like me, you can tell Sinclair what you think here:  How to Contact Sinclair Broadcast Group

As they like to say in the UK:  Done & dusted

Don't think it matters much.  If the show is produced it will be available on streaming, which neatly gets around the gutless wonders.

Hi Bill,

Yup - here is a little update:  You can watch Jimmy Kimmel’s much-anticipated opening monologue shortly after it airs on the Jimmy Kimmel Live! YouTube page. 

Jerry Baumchen

PS) I am of the opinion that all broadcast tv will be gone in five yrs.  It will all be streaming.

It was a really good show and he was obviously very emotional. The broad spectrum of support he’s received and the pushback against the assault on free speech gives the US some hope.

I think has damaged Trump’s standing to some extent, although it has still worked to chill some of the willingness to speak out. It’s concerning that South Park have paused episodes as an example. South Park were hammering the administration hard, and without rewatching episodes don’t think they had actually gone after “the right”, but rather specific high profile individuals.

Honestly mate, proclaiming you don’t know how to use a quotation mark is not the win you think it is.
