ABC/Disney joins fascist purge, suspends <em>Jimmy</em><em> Kimmel </em><em>Live!</em> indefinitely over Kirk remarks

Kimmel’s suspension is part of an ongoing witch hunt to suppress all political views that express opposition to the fascist Trump administration.

Facing pressure from the Trump administration on Monday, ABC—owned by Disney—announced it would be suspending the late-night television show Jimmy Kimmel Live! “indefinitely,” after the host came under attack from fascists and Trump administration officials over his commentary on the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

In that clip he didn’t reference Kirk directly just the event iirc.

“they really don’t want it to be one of their guys”

“check out how much trump cares” [cue Trump footage: “yeah I’m doing alright, check out this ballroom though”]

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
