You’d think that Jimmy Kimmel was sent to the camps after his show was suspended indefinitely for peddling false information about the Charlie Kirk assassination.

Last night, ABC decided to yank “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for the foreseeable future.

The meltdown from the left has been epic. Of course, they’re screaming about free speech and First Amendment rights, two things they know very little about, given their penchant for social media bans against those they don’t like.

Democrat Rep. Van Hollen says “it’s never justified to use government power to crack down on political viewpoints that you disagree with.”

Kirk was assassinated on September 10 at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, while answering audience questions. Robinson was captured two days later. He’s facing the death penalty.
And what the hell is this?
