Yeah, Kimmel is back. And Trump made him much stronger. This was excellent. 410K views on YouTube in the first 30 minutes. youtu.be/c1tjh_ZO_tY

Brilliant of Jimmy Kimmel to stream the full show on YouTube, rendering Nexstar and Sinclair’s blackout ineffectual. It has already topped a million views in the past hour.

I guess we should thank Donald Trump for making the relationship between fossil fuels and fascism explicit.

Trump just threatened to sue ABC again for allowing Jimmy Kimmel back on the air, which is SUPER weird, because all of these Republicans said that the decision to pull Kimmel’s show was a “business decision.”

The absolute craziest thing about Jimmy Kimmel being back on the air tonight was the Democrats securing the final signature they need to force a vote on the release of the Epstein files as Democrat Adelita Grijalva won the special election in Arizona!! RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.

Tonight, the American people - in defense of free speech - returned a political satirist to the airwaves after a burgeoning fascist regime tried to silence him. It’s an historic night. I won’t forget it.

I think it REALLY important to distinguish the parts to the Jimmy Kimmel show. The content was paid for and released. Kimmel will use it to grow his YouTube channel so he can bypass future censorship. But he's not ON the airwaves in many places. The fight is nowhere near done BUT

Nothing like watching free speech give censorship the middle finger.

Keep standing up to Trump’s ongoing attacks on the First Amendment. Keep pressuring media outlets and corporations to protect the free press. Collectively, WE have power. Giving in to tyranny only invites more of it.

Trump is pissed. So much so that he basically admitted that he’s going after ABC for uncancelling Jimmy Kimmel.

Kimmel did a great job pushing back on Trump last night, but I was really glad to see he lit up Brendan Carr, using his own words against him. The lesser villains of this regime need to be called out by name and held accountable for the obscene things they're doing in their cult leader's name.

It’s rare that one clip can both be grounds for a massive corporate lawsuit and grounds for the 25th Amendment at the same time.

Newsom: "People ask, 'Are you being hyperbolic?' Bullshit we're being hyperbolic. If you're Black or brown, it's here in this country. And so I'm deeply proud that I had the privilege of signing the nation's first bill to address masking ... these are authoritarian actions by an authoritarian govt"

Newsom: "I fear that we will not have an election in 2028 -- I really mean that in the core of my soul -- unless we wake up to the code red, what's happening in this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment is."

Gavin Newsom: "This is a tough time. A lot of anxiety, a lot of stress ... and Democrats frankly have had a difficult time pushing back. There's sort of this weakness that dominates our brand, and I think what people appreciate is that we're willing to fight not only symbolically but substantively"

Gavin Newsom: "It was Hannity, all these guys -- 'Outraged! Offended! Disgusted!' Because we put a mirror up to Trump and the absurdity of what's going on in this country, the absurdity of Donald Trump, the absurdity of these networks playing into it"

I definitely think Sinclair and Nexstar made this return an even bigger deal by trying to limit access. They make Trump look even weaker — and their decision more brazenly political.

😕

Kimmel's show put together a montage of Trump insisting dozens of times yesterday to "DON'T TAKE TYLENOL." Complete insanity.

Kimmel: "That's right. Follow the advice of Donald Trump and you too can look like a glazed ham with deep vein thrombosis."

De Niro: "I gotta go. A couple cases of Tylenol fell off a truck and now I gotta figure out how to put autism in them."

“Our leader celebrates Americans losing their livelihoods because he can’t take a joke.”

OMG. Robert De Niro as Brendan Carr.

Kimmel is not holding back on Trump at all

Kimmel pulls no punches. “Trump might have to release the Epstein files to distract people from this.”

Here is Jimmy Kimmel’s full monologue from tonight. Jokes on FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, Trump, Tylenol, etc.

MAGA is a cult so they don't realize they lost a lot of Americans by abusing Kirk's murder to unjustly go after Kimmel and try to cancel him and other comedians.

Trump pushed Kimmel into going full resistance lib for the biggest audience he will ever have. Another masterclass from the president.

Glad Kimmel is now calling out Brendan Carr and Donald Trump, and, specifically, laughing at these weak men. Always mock bullies. They have the weakest chins.

Kimmel: "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. Our leader celebrates Americans losing their livelihoods because he cannot take a joke."

Kimmel: "Disney has asked me to read the following statement and I agreed to do it. 'To reactivate your Disney+ and Hulu account ... '"

Kimmel: "He might have to release the Epstein files to distract us from this now."

Kimmel: Brendan Carr is the most embarrassing Carr the Republican have embraced since the cybertruck

Glad Kimmel is now connecting the dots and taking on Brendan Carr and his threats...

Kimmel: "This show is not important. What is important is that we get to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this."

Kimmel: "Can you imagine? This country has become so authoritarian the Germans are like, 'Come here'"

Kimmel comes out of the gate with a Tylenol joke

NEWS: Trump seems to be implying he is going to sue ABC for bringing back Jimmy Kimmel. This is why you never bend the knee to a bully.

holy shit lol. What a weird thing to post ahead of a Kimmel show that will have a gargantuan audience.

We shall see if one of the most unpopular presidents in American history who is presiding over an economy he’s trying to wreck and the poisoning of our diplomatic relations can consolidate a dictatorship. I’m pretty skeptical he has the juice, especially in his decayed state.

Trump had a tantrum tonight over ABC bringing Jimmy Kimmel back, even threatening to sue the network.

BREAKING: Democrat Adelita Grijalva has won the special election in AZ-7 to fill her late father's US House seat. The discharge petition to release the Epstein files needs one more signature, and she's expected to sign it. www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...

it’s very funny that there’s a large amount of big rightwing influencers intent on trying to tell everyone that jimmy kimmel being sacked had nothing to do with trumps government
