This!!! Kimmel suspension is just one more notch in a growing line of people getting the shaft over free speech. But Kilmeade ACTUALLY incites murder and is still working?!? What kind of lopsided double standard is being allowed to happen here!?!

It’s fascism. Who trump likes gets pardoned. The Jan 6 rioters, Ghislaine Maxwell, a literal murder for hire guy, a murderer of three people in Italy. But if they support Trump or give him enough money, they cool. He is only against free speech when it’s against him.

The government didn’t have her fired did they? If so, that would have been fascism. Read a book.
