What? Where did Kimmel state that the shooter was MAGA. If you can provide a link to a clip of him doing so then why havent you done so.

The Maga gang [is] desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them
What other possible way could you interpret this statement? Honestly, I don't care what bullshite you try to spin this with.

Which is implying the Maga gang is probably one of them, even after tons of evidence to the contrary.
I dont want him canceled. I want to know who are the waterheads defending him?
Those people need to be shamed into oblivion.

Either way Kimmel isnt stating that the shooter was a leftist or maga. He is simply describing the actions of that group while making no assertions of his own.

Correct. His statement certainly implies it, it just doesn't come out directly and state it which is why he worded it that way.

So a liberal idiot like Kimmel can spread liberal hate nightly much like the view and believes there should be no penalties? but a conservative mentions the slightest thing in public and they get taken to woodshed , losing job etc... This needed to happen because the left got to comfortable under the last administration getting away with this crap.

Exactly what he said...
Maybe using the same reporting style in a different setting would be helpful for you to understand.
"LNCHBOX was trying as hard as he could to prove he lacked reading comprehension."
That is not me saying you lack reading comprehension, just describing your actions.

I am young enough to remember when the same folks crying about Kimmel being fired were laughing about and justifying Tucker Carlson being fired by FOX.
(even Kimmel himself thought is was hilarious and did a bit on it. LINK)

Nice to say that gay black man still is clueless to what words mean.
He took us from a post racial presidency to creating the backbone of the division in the country today along with spurring the left’s reaction to the 2016 election which included censoring social media and cancelling anyone who thought differently. He was a big part of the fake Russia collusion stories which were all about obstructing Trump and Republicans from reversing what he set up. 8 years of appointing political and activist judges to both confirm party politics while obstructing the opposition, which Biden’s Autopen continued. 8 years of playing race card with any criticism being labeled racist which also served to limit the press and media from treating his presidency like they always had treated presidents before and immediately swung back in an extreme way with Trump’s first term. (Note: He did have help from RINOs helping to place all those judges and thinking they were upholding decency in politics while the Dems would always go party first. They only fought against Scalia’s replacement being picked by Obama).
Instead of talking to blacks as one of them and ensuring them that he would help make sure of fair investigations with black shootings by cops and would release the truth he flamed the flames, held off on releasing known facts including the truth about the hands up don’t shoot BS, and helped motivate the targeting and murdering cops across the country including invoking Sterling at a memorial or some event for the murdered Dallas cops which was influential in the guy coming to Baton Rouge to murder cops. This was all after Obama also had continued to help arm the police with military equipment.
IRS targeting the Tea Party and other opposition. His pen and phone threats to make extreme executive decrees and actions if congress didn’t pass a bill he agreed with. The civil rights area of the AG became completely political. He also had his own war against the press that has been downplayed and called out and attempted to harm the legitimacy of the Supremes on national TV during the state of the union.
Clinton tried to use race card as the self-proclaimed first black president and blame right wingers for his troubles, but Obama is where the if you disagree with his views you are a racist fully started by both Obama and the media despite Obama the candidate’s claims that he would never play the race card. The media went from talking about a post racial presidency to everything being racial.

Wait, what federal organization was threatening FOX that caused that to happen?
I thought it was related to a billion dollar defamation lawsuit that FOX settled for like $750 mill

Everyone is dodging the question on how would you feel the FCC forced Fox News to pull Gutfeld and Biden celebrated it and wished for every conservative to be cancelled.
Fox News is cable. FCC chair was on CNBC this morning and pointed this out. Cable channels don't have a FCC license.

Cnn freedom of speech should not be in the same sentence. I mean unless its a liberal spilling their crap. To be fair Fox would do the same for the other side the difference being 90% of the other media outlets are pushing Liberal crap. There is no middle . If there was both sides could agree to stop this but both sides are dug in so deep will be hard to get out.
Do remember when Carson and letterman were own they never cheered for either side. They made fun of both sides but never made comments like what Kimmel did. Thats what made them great late night host. They united the country with their programs. Now late night and daytime talk shows divide the country.

The Dominion lawsuit created a massive financial/legal liability for FOX. That kind of pressure forces a private company to protect its bottom line, and Tucker was an easy head to roll.
Jimmy Kimmel. ABC local affiliates are the lifeblood of distribution and ad revenue. When local stations started threatening to drop his show, that was the financial pressure point. ABC cut him loose to protect their bottom line. And avoid having to renegotiate his contact next year for a show that had dogshit ratings.
Hell, I’m pretty sure they even confirmed he would still be doing Who Wants to Be A Millionaire. Which also demolishes this silly “Kimmel was cancelled/silenced/deplatformed” notion.
Seems pretty similar when we throw out your nutty left wing conspiracy.
