Dear MAGA, let me explain something.
You have been taught that anything with the word social in it is communism. It isn’t. Social Security isn’t communism. Medicare isn’t communism. And neither is the public school your children attend or the fire department that saves your house.
Norway and Denmark are capitalist countries. People own businesses, buy houses, make fortunes, invest in stocks and own guns. The difference is that their governments make capitalism work for ordinary people, not just billionaires.
Here is what that means in everyday life. You get cancer. You receive treatment without facing a ruinous hospital bill. Your wife has a baby. She gets months of paid parental leave. Your child wants to attend university. Tuition is free at public universities for eligible students.
You work hard. You get five weeks of paid vacation. You lose your job. There is a safety net to help you get back on your feet And none of this requires giving up your house, your truck, your religion or your freedom.
Now here is the part you really need to understand.
You are already paying taxes. The question is what you get back.
In Europe, more of that money comes back to ordinary families through healthcare, education and financial security.
In America, politicians have convinced millions of working people that asking for those things is socialism, while demanding lower taxes for billionaires is freedom.
You have been persuaded to fight against benefits you would personally enjoy, in order to protect fortunes you will never possess.
Elon Musk does not need you to defend his wallet. Your family needs you to defend yours.
This post is A BIG thank you to ALL my family, friends and so many other people who have reached out to me!
On the 27th of December 2025 my life was taken out of my hands…when meningitis took over my brain, & unbeknownst to me I was placed into a paralysed coma for 8 days to help me fight this awful disease. And that I did! Fight that is!….
After being given a 50/50 chance of surviving, I came out of the induced coma 8 days later…not able to walk or talk. And yet 4 days after that, with the doctors in disbelief, I walked, I talked and proved to them all why I should be released from hospital to start my recovery.
So happy to be home, to be able to put my feet in the sand on the beach and to start thanking all those people that reached out to me and my family in their unwaivering support.
This experience has reminded me of how fragile life is, how quickly everything can change & how precious time is!
There are so many wonderful people in this world … from paramedics (at Mermaid Waters Ambulance), doctors & nurses (at Gold Coast University Hospital) … to family, friends and people I didn’t even know. I feel like I met all these fantastic people in the past 3 weeks, or they reached out to me through messages of love and support.
I am so grateful to you all.
Thank you! 🙏
Bring on 2026 …I’m back! 💫
BREAKING: Jimmy Kimmel gets the last laugh as his heroic return to late night smashes viewership records with the Youtube upload alone racking up 13 million views already.
And it gets so much better...
The Hollywood Reporter reports that Kimmel's monologue from last night could end up being his "most-watched" ever, a dose of bitter medicine for conservative broadcasting affiliates like Sinclair that refused to air the show. They sided with Donald Trump and now they're reaping the business consequences.
As of this writing, the show's official Youtube account has raked in 13,086,809 views in just 13 hours. Currently, Kimmel's most-watched monologue is one from eight years ago in which he discussed his son's birth and health challenges. It has 14 million views. This new video is on pace to exceed those views in record time, likely by end of day today.
CNN’s Harry Enten has pointed out that the median Youtube viewership for one of Kimmel's uploads is roughly 240,000. This is a smashing success.
While the official Nielsen ratings for television viewership have not yet been released, all indications are that they'll be much higher than the 1.6 million viewers that Kimmel usually brings in.
The show itself has been met with universal acclaim (with the marked exception of MAGA world which is absolutely furious of course). Kimmel thanked those who stood by him and defended free speech during his suspension and he brutally tore into Donald Trump and MAGA FCC Chair Brendan Carr.
He called Carr "Trump's hitman" and said that his actions are "not legal" and "unAmerican."
“The president of the United States made it very clear he wants to see me and the hundreds of people who work here fired from our jobs," said Kimmel.
"Our leader celebrates Americans losing their livelihoods because he can’t take a joke," he said. "He was somehow able to squeeze Colbert out of CBS. Then he turned his sights on me and now he’s openly rooting for NBC to fire Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers and the hundreds of Americans who work for their shows who don’t make millions of dollars.”
“If we don’t have free speech, then we just don’t have a free country. It’s as simple as that. If this most fundamental right is allowed to perish, then the rest of our rights and liberties will topple just like dominoes. One by one, they’ll go down," he added.
Please retweet and ❤️ to congratulate Jimmy Kimmel!
TINY WHINY TRIED TO CANCEL KIMMEL BUT GAVE HIM GREAT RATINGS. LOSER. TRIED TO END FREE SPEECH. FAILED! TRIED TO STOP WARS. FAILED! TRIED TO LOWER PRICES. FAILED! TRIED TO EAT A SALAD. FAILED! TRIED TO SEE HIS FEET. FAILED! TRIED TO MAKE IT WITHOUT DIAPERS. FAILED! BIGLY. (SO SAD)
"All of the sudden because of Luke Lowden, we changed our whole mindset around leadership... these close games that we were losing, we start to win. Is it a coincidence? I don't think so."
