TL;dr? ABC and Disney reminded Sinclair that they can charge Sinclair a preemption fee each time they don't run Kimmel, and can run Kimmel on a different station in that market, and if it's a long-term problem they can cancel affiliations Super Bowl, ABC, 16 months from now

We are so humiliatingly deep into tinpot dictatorship territory. The government has just brokered the coerced sale of a major media platform to an ally of the president, who is openly boasting about converting it into (even more of) a partisan propaganda outlet.

You can’t talk about cleaning up crime in D.C. while a 34-count convicted felon is running the country.

“Nixon, but instead of secret tapes he does everything out in the open, usually on social media.”

For context here, Reid Hoffman helped to fund E Jean Carroll's lawsuit that proved Trump is a rapist Trump has just used a press conference to put a target on his head

Patel is basically admitting on camera that the FBI no longer adheres to the Attorney General Guidelines, which prohibits investigating U.S. persons based solely on First Amendment activity (including membership in a group).

First flash drive:

Your cool, cool Auntie is #Antiice

A police officer was killed in the attack on the CDC by an antivaxxer. Trump did not mention it. Use this as a benchmark to compare how the Trump administration responds to an attack on an ICE facility to judge which federal employees are deemed worth protecting. abcnews.go.com/US/1-week-af...

Jimmy Bowman needs to go back in time and tell his voters that shit

Anyone who has spent any amount of time in Los Angeles knows the level of deliciousness I am about to experience. I don’t need to take a picture of the plate. You can already see it and taste it.

The Southern Californian carpet walrus rests in her natural habitat and contemplates her next meal. #catsofbluesky

Trump is a Nazi. People who choose to work for his administration are Nazis. This isn’t hyperbolic political rhetoric, this is provable by his and all of their actions and words.

The vice president, within the last hour (video via @atrupar.com): “Look, just because we don't support illegal aliens, we don't want them to be executed by violent assassins engaged in political violence.” Ohhh, okay.

RFK Jr. Promotes Natural Immunity With Invitation To Touch His Festering Sore https://theonion.com/rfk-jr-promotes-natural-immunity-with-invitation-to-touch-his-festering-sore/

I will never in my life understand how in 2025 relatives think it’s a a clever thing to react to photos of my 7th grade daughter by saying “you need to lock her up for a few years.”

Sooooo… no rapture?

Nooooo...... Grand Rapids Michigan will not be able to see Jimmy Kimmel tonight. #NextStar DEATHSTAR owns ABC Affiliate DAMIT.... This is the very reason there are regulations and what percentage of public ownership you can have. Today it's 39% Trump is changing it to 80% #BoycottNextStar

Finally reading the full Gold Card EO and wow is it wild. The order says that any person who pays $1 million is, by definition, a person of "exceptional business ability" and therefore qualified for an EB-2 visa. Does anything better sum up the Trump ethos than "all rich people are exceptional."?

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

The thing about Tylenol is… …it has nothing to do with the Epstein files and how much Trump‘s name is in them.

Honestly, I’m stoked for the rapture. I think it’s been enough.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here: sbgi.net/tv-stations/

There is only one way to resolve this. RELEASE THE HOMAN TAPES!!!

"We have a lot of stupid people in this country running things." Donald Trump

Babe! Get in here quick! The president is trying to pronounce one of the most common drugs in the world!

Removal protections are gone. Humphrey's Executor is overruled in all but name by the Shadow Docket. Rest in peace to the Presidency, and long live the Monarchy.

“Let’s just agree to disagree,” the Jews said to the Ordnungspolizei as they were shoved onto trains.

Imagine going back in time and telling people that two former hosts of The Man Show would have a huge impact on American politics.

Former counselor to RFK Jr’s predecessor:

Crockett: "I'm gonna honor someone who decided they were going to proclaim I was involved in the 'great white replacement'? Yeah, I'm not honoring that ... it's unfortunate more of my colleagues even on my side couldn't see the amount of harm this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities"

I did absolutely everything but give a shit about the Charlie Kirk funeral, nor did I pay any attention to a min of it. Scrolling through my feed to see the aftermath of the trashy Klan rally that it was. If there were any doubts as to the character of that man, his funeral laid it out perfectly.

These are the stupidest people on earth and they’re going to lose and go to jail.

I see "We are going to sue the government to seek a temporary restraining order to protect you from this clearlly illegal act" is not in the guidance.

My mom asked if I'd heard about Jimmy Kimmel. She's worried. She told me to leave my devices at home if I went to the States. Why is my mom worried about me being punished for speaking my mind? Because the Nazis occupied her country when she was a child. She's been here before.

Pray for us.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but pre-screening a bunch of teenagers on a college campus and arguing with them in front of a rabid pack of your fans in order to cherry pick the best moments and promote your website is not a “free exchange of ideas.”

"Guys, we can't produce 1 full hour of quotes from him that don't sound horrible."

Oklahoma is 50th in education because Walters uses kids’ education as his play toy to score his next hit on Fox. He couldn’t care less about kids.
