It is not about Kimmel or what he said. It is about the US government forcing a network to fire someone - no government should have that power. If the network decided this on their own, that’s one thing. But in this case they absolutely did not.

On social media Wednesday night, after Kimmel’s suspension was announced, The Onion’s Ben Collins @bencollins.bsky.social wrote: “[it’s] Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love.”

A sad day for America—Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia University activist, has been arrested by ICE, not for any crime, but for his political activism. The Trump administration claims he was involved in “pro-terrorist” activities, yet no formal charges have been filed.

Pardon me. I'm just heading off to watch #DesignatedSurvivor as a form of catharsis....

Thank you for this @wetheurban.bsky.social

Project 2025 is trumps agenda and the fact that anyone thought otherwise is insane
