Kimmel wasn’t fired for his remarks on Kirk—he was fired for using his platform to expose and critique our government. Enough! We especially need large corporations, with the money and influence they have, to fight back. sign.moveon.org/petitions/ki...
Reinstate Jimmy Kimmel and stop caving to authoritarian censorship!

Again, what KImmel said was NOT that Robinson might have been MAGA, but that the MAGA gang was desperately trying to say he was not and to score political points from it. Where is the deep offense to civility there, not to mention from a late night comedian?

Way to go Jim!
Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

I see your thinly veiled euphemism!
My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad

Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring 🤷😆

Greg Abbott orders Texas flags to be raised to full-staff for Trump’s inauguration, based on Trump’s demands.

This defies federal protocol to have flags at half-staff for 30 days to mourn the death Jimmy Carter.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social on Mike Johnson considering conditioning disaster aid: "Never in California did we question whether or not we, as taxpayers in the largest state in the Union, should support the people of Louisiana at a time of emergency and need. We’d never condition it."

This Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, remember that children, poverty, and economic freedom were at the heart of Dr. King’s “I Have a Dream” speech. More than 60 years later, child poverty persists—especially for children of color.

How the economy is actually doing! 👊
The labor market stuck the landing!!!
Not much soft about it.

We end the year with a strong jobs report:
- Payroll employment up 256k
- Unemployment rate ticked down to 4.1%
- Labor force participation rate held steady
- Overall and prime-age employment-to-population ratios ticked up

The American economy just added 256,000 jobs in December, and unemployment fell to 4.1%. Trump is inheriting one of the strongest economies for an incoming President in generations. And despite destroying our economy in his first term, Trump will try to take the credit for this boom. Don't let him.

Flashback to 2020:

CA official: "If we ignore the science and put our head in the sand... we're not going to succeed together protecting Californians."

Trump: "It'll start getting cooler. You just watch."

"I wish science agreed with you."

Trump: "I don’t think science knows, actually."
