Kimmel and Colbert, Joined in New York, Show a United Front

"Mr. Kimmel said he had learned of Mr. Colbert’s cancellation while at a β€œNo Kings” demonstration"

If anybody has a connect, we sent Kimmel an invite to speak at No Kings on Oct 18th! We'd love to have him. Sadly, we didn't have room in the program for Fallon.

It took three years of IV antibiotics to be able to walk around the house without passing out. I have not been able to return to my prior life, but I no longer feel like I'm dying.

After Dx, I kept getting sicker and sicker, until I was bedridden. I was in my early 40s. Eventually, they found Lyme in my spinal fluid.

DHS Has Been Collecting US Citizens’ DNA for Years Newly released data shows Customs and Border Protection funneled the DNA of nearly 2,000 US citizensβ€”some as young as 14β€”into an FBI crime database, raising alarms about oversight and legality.

NEW: CBP has been funneling DNA from US citizensβ€”including kidsβ€”into the FBI’s crime database. Nearly 2,000 Americans swabbed, many with no charges. Once for violent offenders, CODIS is becoming a mass-surveillance archive.

β€˜A slippery slope to eugenics’: advocates reject RFK Jr’s national autism database US health secretary claims data will be used for research but has not addressed privacy concerns and potential misuse

I know this 4 months old, but bears reposting and reminding.

We're dealing with a pro-death, Eugenics movement. I say that without hyperbole. Just trust the evidence of your eyes and ears.

Video: Opinion | Jimmy Kimmel and the Rise of Corporate Censorship After ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel from the airwaves, many called it censorship. The journalist Molly Jong-Fast explains that it is censorship, but not the kind you might think.

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated.

Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms.

Collective boycott.

Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.
