It wasn't even offensive. It wasn't even about Kirk or the shooting. It was about reactions to the "values" of the shooter. FCC et al was just waiting for an excuse. Faux outrage.

That is extortion since he said nothing wrong. Cave or else. Isn't that what the government is doing to them? I guess they are the ones caving.

He'd rather all the stories be about the big beautiful ballroom because "he thinks" that is neutral despite the fact that the ballroom is a waste of our, or someone's money but surely not his. If he would actually do something for the country that is positive maybe the press would be better.

By his own definition Trump's speech is hate speech since on January 6th his speech led to violence. And good heavens, he brings up President Clinton as NOT experiencing negative press. What the heck was all that Whitewater and Monica Lewinsky coverage about but negative? Obama got criticized for wearing a tan suit and liking Dijon mustard. Give me a break.

Murderer says what? Because that is what he is. No verification, no ability to surrender, no trial...just murder. And why hasn't he helped his family member who is on drugs?

Not sure if this was accurate but the picture of the widow with Trump looked like she wasn't too comfortable with the hug.

Saw a lot of guys like him who were "preppy" Young Republicans for Nixon. Those guys just had a smaller audience. Similar patter.

When was the last time this person stepped foot in a school? Teachers are the most conservative people I have ever met. But leaving that aside they have no time to "indoctrinate" kids. They barely have enough time to teach everything required. Everything is scripted these days.

Re: Trump Whines To Peter Doocy About Fox News Polls During Rant About Jimmy Kimmel | Crooks and Liars

Has any adult male ever whined so much about everything? If he wants better ratings he should act like a decent human being and put others before himself, remember that he is president of ALL, ditch the tariffs, and reverse that "big beautiful bill."

Re: 'Absolutely Inappropriate': Rand Paul Condemns FCC Chair Over Jimmy Kimmel | Crooks and Liars

cath — Sun, 21 Sep 2025 14:40:03 -0000

Let's be honest. The only reason Disney acted was because the FCC chair leaned on them considering the fact that Kimmel's statement wasn't really off base. The right was worried and upset that the shooter might turn out to be one of them. He surely was brought up that way.

So he has no remorse about letting Epstein accost more young women. What a nice guy.

The policies of this administration are predicated on cruelty and hate, instead of love and respect of self and others.

Yes, "the mission." Ask Jimmy Kimmel how long they had been waiting for him to say anything they could mischaracterize? He said not one negative word about Charlie Kirk in that statement. He merely mentioned MAGA's fears about the shooter and that remark somehow turned into a "not our values" statement when he said nothing about "values."

"Radicalization of young people?" Isn't that the goal of Turning Point? Or did I miss something?

Since government is saying it was responsible Kimmel can sue on first amendment grounds.

Saw that interview with Trump. Either he was pretending not to know of Melissa Hortman's assassination or he had no idea. Both unbecoming of a President. The fact that he didn't even try to offer condolences to her family is disgusting.

Interesting how the protesting of the cartoon basically disseminated it more widely. Many certainly would not have known about it.

Re: Trump Spiritual Adviser: Charlie Kirk's Murder Is Part Of God's Plan | Crooks and Liars

Of all the stupid things to say. Logically then if it was "part of God's plan" I guess we could let the perpetrator go? That implies he was "set up" by God and had no free will. More delusional talk.

Re: John Fetterman Wants Mean Democrats To Stop Calling Trump Names | Crooks and Liars

Trump demonizes everyone he doesn't like or any supporter who has "turned against" him. "The tone" is his and his alone. Why should he be given a pass...again and again? Calling him out for what he is and what he represents isn't "mean." It is necessary, otherwise people are condoning the dismantling of our country. You do not hand over your lunch money to bullies.
