Brian Kilmeade, a longtime host on Fox News, apologized for comments he made on a broadcast last week in which he proposed killing mentally ill homeless people by “involuntary lethal injection.”
“Just kill ’em,” he said.
Isn't this a tad bit worse than anything Jimmy Kimmel said?

Former FBI informant Alexander Smirnov pleaded guilty to fabricating claims of a bribery scheme involving Hunter Biden and his father. House Republicans trumpeted these false charges. Smirnov, who also pleaded guilty to tax evasion, was sentenced last week to 6 years in prison.

There seems to be widespread animus at health insurance companies. But sketicism about covid booster shots, which Trump fueled, caused about 35,000 excess deaths. That must be greater mortality than any executive caused, but has there been criticism of Trump for his elevation of the death toll?
