Welcome to Russia
Trumpâs weaponized agencies are trying to eliminate free speech and punish those who use it. Universities, media, Colbert, and now Jimmy Kimmel. This is just the beginning
Shame on ABC for capitulating to thugs

Kimmel didnât even really say anything negative about Kirk. He noted the cynical and almost giddy exploitation of the killing by right-wing propagandists, absolutely accurately, and in gentler terms than I would have used.

I stand with Jimmy Kimmel. F*ck Trump and F*ck ABC/Disney. Iâve met Jimmy and Iâve met Trump and one is a smart, funny and empathetic man and one is an illiterate racist POS.

And not that it's relevant to the free speech issue, but Kimmel said literally nothing negative about Kirk per se at all. This is just a pure pretext to getting another critic of Trump off the air, and Disney is a willing regime collaborator
