Later that night, Jimmy Kimmel hosted a humdrum episode of his long-running late-night show. In his monologue, he made a few conventional, gimlet-eyed jokes about the administration’s scramble to make sure no one would think the killer was right-wing, and its eagerness to “score political points” once his identity was made public. On Wednesday, however, […]

“Our emergency docket should never be used, as it has been this year, to permit what our own precedent bars. Still more, it should not be used, as it also has been, to transfer government authority from Congress to the President, and thus to reshape the Nation’s separation of powers,” Kagan wrote. Trump attempted to […]

This is certainly an “only in America” story, but I do not mean that in the normal, heroic sense. I mean it in the creepy, corporate, it’s-all-about-profit sense. CBS began life in 1927 as a radio network, expanding into television as that medium grew. It had entertainment and news divisions, and later sports; its news […]

While Kimmel’s jokes focused on Trump’s and MAGA’s response to the killing, rather than the violence itself, Carr called it the “sickest conduct possible.” Nexstar and Sinclair followed suit, explaining their decision as a response to the purportedly “insensitive” and “problematic” comments.
