In the hours leading up to the decision to pull Jimmy Kimmel, two sources familiar with the matter say, senior executives at ABC, its owner Disney, and affiliates convened emergency meetings to figure out how to minimize the damage. Multiple execs felt that Kimmel had not actually said anything over the line, the two sources say, but the threat of Trump administration retaliation loomed.

This is Kfir Bibas.
He’s already spent 1/10 of his life in Hamas captivity in Gaza.

If you’re doing anything other than calling for an immediate release of 241 hostages, you’re complicit.

So the Supreme Court says Texas can limit women’s reproductive rights but the Biden administration can’t mandate vaccines and or COVID tests?

If you haven’t been keeping up:

- @RepSherrill said rioters were led on recon tours by members of Congress the day before the attack.

- @AOC said people came closer than we know to being killed.

- @RepPressley said all the panic buttons were removed from her office.

So a lot of chatter happening on the slow vaccine roll out

Personally, I'm incredibly frustrated.

Did we not know that vaccines were coming? Is vaccine administration a surprise?

Several complex issues so lets break things down a bit

Warning, this is a bit of a rant

Swear words aren’t obscene. Economic injustice, racism, homophobia, tearing innocent children from their mothers, lack of access to healthcare, treating the planet with contempt, undermining democracy, and 3000 unfuckingnecessary deaths a day is obscene.

A man who believes that America’s very democracy is being destroyed by a fraudulent election does not golf.

Here's the story with the complaint. It's horrifyingly detailed so many trigger warnings on this one: https://t.co/fFZxXBO6hK

A whistleblower at ICE today exposed that mass hysterectomies are being performed on detained immigrants. If it sounds like a horror show, that's because it is. Gender oppression has a direct correlation with authoritarianism. This is beyond. The vicious cruelty is staggering.

If the current polls were election night.

Trump shouldn’t just lose, let’s work to ensure it’s a complete rebuke.
