"An hour before Kimmel’s show returned to air Tuesday, Trump complained, “I can’t believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back. The White House was told by ABC that his Show was cancelled!” The president vowed to go after the network for being too favorable to his political opponents."

"It shows that Trump and MAGA have hidden political weaknesses in this battle that those taking on Trump should keep in mind: These authoritarian assaults on the First Amendment are triggering a major cultural backlash, and it appears substantially stronger than the impulse that spurred the assaults in the first place."

Never forget: Despots can only be as strong as the people allow them to be.

"Trying to appease those who consider you inherently "less than" themselves is a losing strategy.
Authoritarians will see your efforts at appeasement as further proof of their superiority and your inferiority.
Appeasing an authoritarian will inevitably lead to even more demands. Each time you give in, you not only strengthen the authoritarian, you weaken yourself."

"Tuesday’s episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” averaged 6.2 million viewers... nearly 4 times bigger than his usual audience, even though more than 20% of #ABC affiliates boycotted the show.
To score 6.2 million viewers on a late-night show... is highly unusual. To do it without a few dozen local affiliates airing the show is even more eye-opening...
#YouTube video of his monologue has already drawn more than 15 million views."

Age and sickness affects us all, mostly negatively. I think we should have term and age limits in Congress, Senate and the Presidency. Why we allowed Dianne Feinstein to pass our laws when her personal affairs were managed under power of attorney by her daughter as she was deemed incapable of doing so? I think there are valid issues related to age that need to be addressed. Biden’s was a case in point. It is sensitive to discuss this I agree but... Thanks.
Age and sickness affects everyone differently. In the cases where it directly impacts a politician’s ability to function, their age becomes a relevant point to make.
Case in point, you mention Feinstein. If what you say is true, her age becomes relevant. But she was also unethical. We can attack her for that. And for berating little climate activists who came to see her.
Thank you for the civil discourse.

in Australia we saw multiple spokespeople giving multiple assurances that paracetamol was one of the safest drugs around, etc etc. Each time it was a few minutes, with concerned questions from interviewers.
Why, in Australia of all places, could these people not have simply said "It's bullshit. Paracetamol is safe. Neither the US president not his health minister has the slightest clue what they are talking about. No questions - I will not waste any more time on this non-story."
The long earnest answers worked to give the ludicrous assertion a validity it did not deserve.
Just another stupid thing proving to the world that the Trump Administration is full of morons and grifters.
This must be driving the (remaining) smart people at the FDA insane.
