the show was loosing millions and cost a lot more to produce than it was bringing in, and the ratings were actually in the toilet and they had over time lost a key demographic for advertisers, and advertisers had grown to dislike Kimmel before this happened because he went more &#039;woke&#039;. So from a business aspect, it was probably just a matter of time, probably right after the first of 2026 but maybe sooner that ABC would have pulled the plug anyway. Kimmel did it for them.]]></description>

They just need to burn down a few businesses, assault a few elderly people and vandalize some art to win back the hearts and minds.
It&#039;s amazing that a movement predicated on the canonization of a repeat offender, drug addict, woman beating loser ever gained traction in the first place.

One side has their felon crack-head loser martyr the other has a successful, never jailed, sober family man as theirs. In only cartoon villain universes would the felon crack-head side ever amount to anything or gain any support yet here we are.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Antifa Panic that Charlie Kirk’s Assassination Backfired on Them.

“In a rare after-action report about the fallout, an Oregon Antifa group weighs in on their surprise at the unity and scale of the backlash.
…
In their own words, they admit fearing the loss of their long-standing ability to mark conservatives for death without much resistance. They point out that for the first time, even apolitical groups, institutions, and businesses feel safe expressing sympathy to Kirk’s family and supporters. Compounding their panic, numerous people have already been fired after celebrating the assassination online. Meanwhile, Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show has been pulled off the air by Nexstar after he attempted to mislead the public by falsely suggesting the assassin was ‘MAGA.’
…
The report also acknowledges that Antifa’s recent attacks on Sean Feucht’s Christian worship events have backfired badly. Cameras captured masked militants assaulting families and children — images that damaged Antifa’s carefully crafted narrative. The group admits these events, combined with the Kirk assassination, risk ‘galvanizing otherwise politically inactive conservatives.’ They are desperate to prevent that.

To counter a cultural shift away from their dehumanization tactics — now deeply mainstreamed on the left — Antifa recommend dividing the right against itself. …

Victor Davis Hanson Blows Up the Left’s Daily Talking Points

”
…
The narrative that Hanson has blown up is the way in which the alleged Charlie Kirk assassin has been described, and how it’s devolved in seven stages, which are:

1: “No motive”
2: “The gun did it”
3: “The assassin was MAGA”
4: “Both sides”
5: “Trump did it”
6: “A love story”
7: He kinda, sorta deserved it”

118 House Democrats Refuse To Vote For Resolution Condemning Charlie Kirk’s Assassination.

&quot;Democrats continue to communicate that they want their political opponents dead and will dance on their graves when a far-left foot soldier completes the job.

Kimmel spoke, no government entity infringed it when he did.

ABC spoke, no government entity infringed it.

ABC speech was exercised with their right to terminate programming for misconduct and false statements.

Kimmel&#039;s speech was exercised with his false information and he found out that a company for what ever reason does not need to tolerate lies and dishonesty from an employee.

The first amendment worked just like it was suppose to...no government entity infringed the speech of either ABC or Kimmel.]]></description>

&quot;So is it “free speech working” when the Trump administration forces a business to fire an employee for making a joke that offends the president?&quot;

The Trump admon did not force ABC to take Kimmel off air.

Kimmel forced Kimmel to take Kimmel off air. When Kimmel made his false comment, ABC spent hours with him trying to get him to retract it because it was for a fact false. If he would just retract it, it would be fine. But in the meanwhile phone calls of complaint started pouring in to ABC affiliate stations. So the two distributors to the ABC affiliates wanted something done and Kimmel to retract the false remarks. Instead Kimmel planned to double down and further attack MAGA in his next airing. ABC found out about it and decided to put the plug and the two distributors had already said they would not air the show any longer.
