Does anyone else get the irony here?
I mean, people (there are more cases out there) are cancelled by the very people that are supposed to celebrate Kirk as a kind of free speech martyr.
ABC has pulled late-night host #JimmyKimmel off air indefinitely over comments he made about the shooting of right-wing influencer #CharlieKirk.

Earlier this week, Kimmel said during his show that the "Maga gang" was trying to score political points off Kirk's killing.

The amazing stats of the day:

About 1 in 6 parents have skipped or delayed recommended #vaccines for their kids

36% - white parents who identify as "very religious"
22% - identify as #Republicans

I searched "Nigel Farage" on Bing and this ad came out.

I found it so spot on given he is "poor man's Donald Trump" (who as Carr pointed out is "poor man's idea of a rich man").

Amazing!

Peek hypocrisy is MAGA trash like Karoline Levitt and fascist GOP scumbag frauds like Tom Cotton saying they have no tolerance for criminal activity or rioting when both fully support a convicted felon in the White House and his January 6 terrorists who stormed the Capitol. STFU.
