If they claim they haven't heard the quote, play it for them and ask for a response. If they claim it's being taken out of context, play a longer version and ask for a response. If they try to sidestep the issue, play it over again and ask for a response.

Hear that, Americans? We have the go ahead to continue to always be pieces of shit and never demand better!

Chat, is it ableist to call Pete Hegseth a "mouthbreather"?

The reason for military rules of engagement and adhering to laws of armed combat is not “political correctness,” it’s better strategy, serves long-term national interest, and is a way to make an awful part of the human experience a little less awful, based on lessons learned from centuries of blood.

Especially Jeffrey.

Lmao he really said

We're basically at the original novelization of Star Wars.

This essay is like 9 pages of the most exhausting drivel you've ever read and then in the last paragraph on page 10 it becomes unintentionally hilarious.

Because no one has eaten at Cracker Barrel in 10 years

Whenever people start dunking on tankies, there's always one of these people waiting around to out themselves.

It took just three days to get Sinclair to back down, and what it got in exchange for agreeing to put Kimmel back on the air was...nothing. This is not what happens every time you stand up to a bully, but if you don't fight back, you'll never know if you would have won.

Chotiner: You knew Yoda, you fought with him at the battle of Kashyyk? Chewbacca: Raaawr Chotiner: And you knew him to be a Jedi Master using his powers to defend your planet? Chewbacca: Raaaawr Chotiner: Yet you did not take exception to Han Solo calling it a hokey religion? Chewbacca: Rawr

I feel like a lot of our political moment stems down to tens of millions of Americans literally incapable of imagining something worse than someone being annoying.

This is even more hilarious now that I've learned Brendan Carr is 46 years old, but looks so ass that they got an 82 year old actor to play him in their sketch.

Uh, yeah, she's not saying she thought they'd do this out of the goodness of their hearts...🙄 Like many of us, we thought their corporate interests in making money would stand up to attacks like this from the state. For years, progressives have told us that these corporations are really in control.

doomers: there’s not going to be elections in America ever again me: if they can’t even cancel an entertainer due to popular pushback what the fuck makes you think they can cancel elections

I have taken the Tylenol that was in the medicine cabinet and which they think probably is the reason you like trains forgive me but that’s bullshit you got autism from your dad

like i was saying

Pritzker is Andorposting...

This feels...significant? I guess unless "confront" just means "escort home"...

Hot take: I'm really glad right now that Reagan killed the Fairness Doctrine in the 80s. Seeing the way this administration operates, they would exclusively use it to force non-right-wing media to present "both sides". Fox, OANN, and Newsmax would be allowed to skirt the rules.

Over/under that Bob Iger steps down?

I can't wait until anti-Disney chuds suddenly have to be pro-Disney to continue the grift.

I think one of the things that pisses me off most is that we just let these blatantly unconstitutional things happen until months later when a judge says "no". They should not get the benefit of the doubt on anything.

Michael Eisner, who served as CEO of Disney for 21 years and acquired ABC while he was in charge, slams his successor Bob Iger for bending the knee.

that's why you bring the US flag to protests, folks

Actually, yeah, I wanna go further with this point. ABC/Disney capitulating is not going to end with Jimmy Kimmel. Just like Lando thought that it was a good idea to give up his friends to save his people, it will blow up in their faces. They WILL demand more.

The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years. Pinochet was ousted with a referendum. And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists. Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.

The last political column I was allowed to write in the @washingtonpost.com was a criticism of Obama. His people took issue with my piece, but we were respectful. Now he is tweeting in support of me. This is how free political speech and respect for debate *actually works*. Or used to work.

Disney should show a special Kimmel Live on Disney+ at the normal time. I know they won't, but they should.

I know many are saying “go to the protest just don’t sign up.” That’s fine, who cares? But if you’re convincing people they’re in a world where putting their name on a website could get them disappeared, you’re describing a world we’re not yet in but using fear to make it more likely we will be.

"No one caused any change putting their name on a list!" www.asianews.it/news-en/Hami...

This is the biggest thing. If you're not standing up for what you're protesting for, what are you doing?

as a freedom of speech enjoyer im simply not worried about the opsec stuff, i haven't made any threats or anything. disapproving of dear leader isn't a crime and if they make it one i refuse to give it the legitimacy of hiding

Yeah, the regime would probably kill everyone who opposed them if they could and yeah, that’s why it’s important people keep openly opposing them in large enough numbers that doing so is grossly impractical. Any questions?

pam bondi is trying to get a guy fired from a random office depot and y'all think they're gonna round up all the libs? be serious

How would you even begin to draw the line here? Is a woman wearing pants illegal? Is a kilt illegal? Is JD Vance's eyeliner illegal?

Star Wars has a writing Emmy.

Is there a can with the bottom half?

A set of images showing someone alluding to "something big" is circulating online related to the murder of Charlie Kirk. These are fake. The image belongs to an activist from Washington, not someone who was at the event.

At this point, the word "Sinophobia" just feels like a tell. I don't think I've ever seen it used in a context where the subject wasn't justified in their criticism of China. It's just like "Russophobia". Normal people just say "racism" or "xenophobia".

Just look at these dropdowns The only difference between this and telegram Z bloggers is the latter use way more slurs www.codepink.org/ukrainefaq

Why are you just proving him right? This is just "uwu pwease stop fighting back, the Russians are dying because they couldn't help but be impeewialist!"

Oh, splendid, the tankies are already trying to say that Nepal was a "color revolution"...

They are so black and white. This is the logic of 1st graders. If people can still fall through the cracks in this situation, you can just change the laws!

Holy shit...the context surrounding the letter makes the entire thing so much more damning...

This movie came out in 1999.
