Dear Americans. It's not quite Germany in the 1930's yet, but you're getting there quicker than I anticipated.
Jimmy gets suspended, but Brian Kilmead(Fox) said that the homeless should get lethal injections, & receives no repercussions.
Remember, Jimmy Kimmel wasn't talking anything about Kirk's killer. He. Was. Not. He was talking about MAGA's response to the theory that Tyler was MAGA and the using of Kirk's death to score political points (which he highlighted by showing Trump in a clip that put on full display his callousness to the tragedy). The FCC pressured ABC to fire him because he was pointing out what they were doing.
“97% TV against me “ GEEZE, man, I wonder why!!! 😮
The water is boiling says Mr. Frog.
A long time constitutional crisis since Jan .06th.
As a Native American for those saying this was surprising at how quick this has happened, have you not studied the history of this nation against its indigenous inhabitants?
Why are Americans so content with losing all of their Constitutional rights and freedoms? Did they think that those were unimportant?
I'm shocked how few in the US are willing to speak out against this take over or our democracy.
To accept the voice of opposition is a sign of a nation’s maturity, and if the government suppresses it, that is very alarming and requires public awareness.
