Leftists Angrier About Kimmel Suspension Than Kirk Assassination
The article discusses the suspension of late-night host Jimmy Kimmel following his dissemination of offensive falsehoods regarding the assassination of conservative commentator charlie Kirk. After ABC removed “Jimmy Kimmel Live” from its broadcast schedule indefinitely, many left-leaning figures, including media personalities and Democrats, expressed outrage over the decision, framing it as censorship and an unjust punishment of Kimmel. CNN’s Jake Tapper suggested that financial and political motives, including pressure from the FCC and the trump administration, played a role in the suspension. Comedian Patton Oswalt also reacted strongly, urging collective resistance. The author criticizes these reactions as hypocritical, pointing out that the same leftists have shown less concern and less vocal defense over Kirk’s assassination, which they argue highlights a disregard for free speech and conservative voices when it truly matters.The article contends that the left prioritizes maintaining power over addressing political violence or truth, and will support figures like Kimmel to protect their interests despite their misleading narratives.
Failed late-night television “comic” Jimmy Kimmel got yanked from the air Wednesday night for spreading offensive propaganda about Charlie Kirk’s assassination — and predictably, leftists are having a full-blown meltdown.
In the hours since ABC pulled Jimmy Kimmel Live from its broadcasting schedule indefinitely, the Democrat Party’s biggest apparatchiks have rushed to express their collective outrage at a private entity punishing its talentless employee for his morally repulsive behavior.
Acting as if he were some teenage TikToker, CNN host Jake Tapper sat down and recorded a video in sweats to help his viewers “make sense” of Kimmel’s show getting the ax. The infamous Russia collusion hoaxer specifically attempted to cast the cancellation as a “follow the money” scheme involving the Federal Communications Commission, as well as network officials’ desire to appease the Trump administration.
“While there are no doubt people who are legitimately offended by what Kimmel said, and no doubt tensions are high and feelings are fraught, there is also a lot of money to be made and there are also a lot of people who want to endear themselves to the FCC commissioner and President Trump,” Tapper said in reference to FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr noticing Kimmel’s lies.

Supposed Hollywood “comedian” Patton Oswalt similarly recorded a temper tantrum-style video in which he said people “can’t just stand up anymore” and have “got to roar up screaming and link arms” against what he claimed is “an ancient evil.”
“I meet people every day, every weekend, doing comedy, and I know, I know, I know this is not what they voted for,” Oswalt said whilst pretending not to be the “West coast elite” he is.
The meltdowns are but a few of the many displayed by elected Democrats, media hacks, and Hollywood lowlifes in response to Kimmel’s show getting the boot.
While certainly entertaining to watch, what’s more remarkable about this entire spectacle is that these deranged leftists — who never gave a damn about “free speech” when conservatives were actually being censored by the Biden administration — are noticeably angrier about Kimmel’s suspension than they are about Kirk’s assassination.
Where were such impassioned defenses of “speech” when Kirk’s was silenced by his assassin’s bullet? By all accounts, these Democrats are far more outraged by the fact that one of their party mouthpieces will be booted off the air indefinitely than they are about a man being permanently taken away from his family, allegedly at the hands of a pro-trans lunatic.
Then again, such repugnant behavior is unsurprising. This is who these leftist ghouls truly are.
They don’t care about how their party’s radicalization of unstable individuals has unleashed a wave of leftist political violence that threatens the lives of conservatives and other Americans. And they certainly don’t care about fellow hacks like Kimmel brazenly lying about Kirk’s assassination to cover up such uncomfortable truths.
The No. 1 objective for the establishment left is maintaining power. If further debasing themselves by shilling for Kimmel is what it takes to get their fellow propagandist back on the air to make that happen, then they will absolutely do it.
