Canceling Jimmy Kimmel

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down the indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel, Barack Obama’s claims that he never politicized tragedy, and the evil deeds of the guy first suspected of killing Charlie Kirk.

First, they examine ABC/Disney’s decision to pull Jimmy Kimmel off the air after his brazen lie that Charlie Kirk was murdered by a MAGA supporter. With affiliate stations preparing to boycott Kimmel, ABC pulled the plug. The story gets more complicated because Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr seems to have been involved in trying to get Kimmel canceled. Jim argues the government should have stayed out of it but makes clear he won’t be shedding any tears for Kimmel.

Next, they react to former President Barack Obama chiding Republicans over their response to Kirk’s murder while insisting he never used tragedies for political gain. Jim and Greg highlight multiple examples where Obama did just that and Jim shares insights about where Obama really stands among Democrats these days.

Finally, they explain how the first suspect arrested after Kirk's murder is clearly a horrible person, even if he didn't pull the trigger. Jim and Greg reveal why the man claimed to be the shooter in the immediate aftermath and what horrifying content police found on his phone.
