    Now we're nitpicking rhetorical meaning of political rhetoric and whether the murderer ever uttered certain words in a certain order. This is peak rhetorical combat. Meanwhile, the politically motivated assassin subscribed to banal self-righteous hatred of the right, the likes of which can be consumed from any common source of left-wing punditry. The only thing fringe about him were his actions. His words were totally mainstream.

      Faster than I expected. Kimmel’s show to return within a week or so.

          He’ll probably get a short term ratings boost.

                  I think we all know that Donald Trump is the real victim here.

                        Trump stepped on his own dick. Seriously? Take the 10 minutes and watch it.

                          21 minutes. I dipped in.

                          It's obvious that this is a massive own goal for Trump. Stupidity and arrogance is never a good combination, and he's surrounded himself with a bunch of toadies who just do what he tells them because for some reason or other.

                          I don't really like Jimmy Kimmel's tearful shit.

                              Dont know much about either guy (Rogan or Kimmel)

                              Joe Rogan has rushed to the defense of Jimmy Kimmel over the 'joke' that got him pulled from the air, while calling the Trump administration 'crazy' for going after the late-night host.

                              On his podcast Tuesday, Rogan slammed Kimmel's suspension over his comments about Charlie Kirk as an affront to free speech, warning that those who hailed the decision could face similar consequences.

                              and

                              The host also poked fun at Trump's reaction to the shooting.

                              'This is not how an adult grieves the murder of someone he calls a friend,' he said. 'This is how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish.'

                                So now he defines new speech crimes and sets the punishment via EO.

                                    Maybe this should go under the "continuing grift" forum thread.

                                      So Hegseth is wants to pull the press credentials of any organization that does acrual reporting about the DoD.

                                      That’s right. They have to sign a doc that says they will only propagate official statements and quote approved spokesmen and won’t seek to talk to any non-approved sources.

                                      It’s looking really embarrassing for him.

                                        FoxNews hasn’t said whether it will sign or not. But given that even Newsmax refused it’s hard to imagine them huddling on the left of the above spreadsheet.

                                          If that's an accurate framing of this thing I hadn't heard of until now, it's a request for a gentlemen's agreement that no journalistic agency would sign, as they do not get into the journalism business to be gentlemen.
