And there it is.
On Kimmel, the Democrats are engaged in nothing more than Projection and Distortion.
Projection because Democrats are the ones that spent years illegally weaponizing government to silence dissent. And it is Democrats that will do it all again—as they are openly telling you today.
Distortion because Democrats want to blame anything other than Disney and their local TV stations for Kimmel’s suspension. Those businesses decided that, in their view, a suspension made sense. The reporting on this is clear.
Notably, this is the first time recently that any local TV stations have pushed back on a national programmer like Disney. And that is a good thing because we want want empowered local TV stations. After all, local TV stations—not the national programmers—have public interest obligations, and they should be making decisions that in their view meets the needs of their local communities.
I walked through all of this in my Concordia remarks yesterday, which are posted below.
You can ask people to choose turning down the temperature over revenge. You cannot ask them to choose turning down the temperature over truth. But that's what the Left is doing: They want the Right, in its moment of grief, to assume equal responsibility for the violence coming from their side via the absolute lie that "both sides" are equally violent. You cannot build unity on a lie—because you cannot build anything on a lie.
@SPICE2K @JeremyKamali The degree to which JK is unfunny should actually be illegal. He tried to persuade his audience that MAGA was responsible for Kirk's death. That's worse than unfunny. It's the type of lie that got Kirk killed. On top of that, to speak in jest of the recently departed is awful.
@ggreenwald You guys need to have an open debate about this and bring the relevant facts and receipts. Nobody believes information coming from Hamas or Hamas adjacent reporters.
@RLCubsFan @rprez2012 Sounds like Disney is apologizing here. It also sounds like they want to look for opportunities to work together. Monetary settlements are often kept private, but I wouldn't be surprised if she got some money based on the tone here. Either way she forced Disney to be amicable.
@emilykschrader They're also having a parade today to celebrate their victory over Israel and America, lol, so you might want to take that with a grain of salt.
@youyoyotoo@IsraeliPM China and Russia were most likely aware of the operation ahead of time. Neither of those countries want a terrorist regime full of goat fuckers to have a nuclear weapon either. So I doubt your conclusions.
