At about 4 PM Pacific time came a breaking news event covered intensively on CNN that ABC owned by Walt Disney corporation had canceled their favorite late night comedian Jimmy Kimmel because of his saying that Charlie Kirk’s murder could’ve been someone associated with MAGA.

Earlier, Jimmy Kimmel had made a statement which very clearly allowed him to express his concern about the horror of the Kirk assassination.

A close associate, who is the chairman of the SCC, immediately said that what Kimmel had said should be stopped the easy way or the hard way.

This is a stark attack on the right of free speech as guaranteed under our constitution, and has now been celebrated by the Trump administration as a victory on their road to the dictatorship that they have been pursuing!

How could ABC have been so gutless to take these actions they took when they knew it would be extremely difficult for its license to be revoked. In any event, a strong, legal case could be immediately made to protect its license and ABC’s right to broadcast.

Now it will be of particular interest to see how many other gutless businesses are willing to remain silent in the light of this dangerous red line that has been crossed by ABC’s weakness!

Of all the concerns we have had about the improprieties and outright attacks on our constitutional government by the Trump administration, this represents an action which should awaken the GOP and all voters in the United States.

This is a huge rut line that Trump has crossed him, trying to influence the media by demanding that they give up the constitutional right to free speech. What Kimmel said was so mild as judged derogatory that the impropriety of what Trump and the chairman of the SCC is trying to do must be immediately screamed about and made headline lose in every media across the country. The godless performance of corporate America will be only enhanced by their further silence.
