    What vile thing did Jimmy Kimmel say? Please quote him accurately. And if the vile thing is just him quoting what Trump said, we shouldn’t hold that against Kimmel.

      Kimmel lied and intentionally spread misinformation for political purposes, on live tv.

      Nothing to do with anything trump said. What are you even talking about?

          “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang trying to characterize this kid who killed Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it”

          Blatant, outright lies and misinformation for political reasons.

          Note I never said that he said anything “vile”. Kimmel faced consequences for lying.

              Nope, it’s a lie because it’s implying that he was “MAGA” which we knew for fact at the time of Kimmels monologue was incorrect.

                Your reading comprehension is not good. He didn’t claim the guy was MAGA. He claimed the MAGA people were bending over backwards to claim he wasn’t. Did that happen or not?

                The Kimmel quote in your image says Barr saw consequences for saying something “vile.” Kimmel would have to have said something vile for this to be hypocrisy. Not something true but uncomfortable.

                  Your reading comprehension is terrible, not mine. Kimmel was saying that the murderer was “MAGA”, when everyone knew at the time that he was not.

        Some people also have a lot of trouble understanding that Kimmel is a comedian.

        But hey, if we’re pulling things off the air for intentionally spreading misinformation for political purposes on live TV, then lets shut down Fox News, Newsmax, and OAN too.
