Ungrateful Ilhan Omar and the Somali scammers are the immigrants we DON’T want

NY Post:  . . . "In a corker of a Truth Social post announcing “a permanent pause” in immigration from Third World countries, Trump went after Minneapolis-area Rep. Ilhan Omar, and for good reason. 

"Omar stands for everything we shouldn’t want an immigrant to be — ungrateful, hostile to the American system as such, and perhaps not above perpetrating immigration fraud." . . .

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz: Staggeringly incompetent Somali fraud apologist

. . . "So, the staggering fraud, grift, graft, and deception isn’t just among Somalis? Walz is admitting it goes much deeper than that? Is every state government entity, “charity” organization, and minority group involved in fraudulently bilking the North Star state citizen-taxpayer out of his or her money?! At this point, it wouldn’t surprise many.

"Minnesota is no longer prosperous or well-run, explicitly because of Walz’s leadership … or lack thereof. And I very much doubt that criminals care much about its soon-to-be-former AAA bond rating." . . .

"All one can hope in the wake of this monstrosity is that a whole lot of lowlife and their governor find their way to jail, and their ill-gotten gains are somehow recovered. As the Times notes, this scandal threatens the Minnesota "way of life", meaning, why Minnesota can't have nice things. What a revolting scandal. Walz is a corrupt clod who needs to go down for this."

Treasury Launches Probe into Allegations Somali Fraud Rings in Minnesota Ripped off Taxpayers and Diverted Funds to Terrorists   

Meanwhile, a recording of a December 2021 meeting between Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and key figures in the Feeding Our Future scandal emerged earlier this year.

Ellison, the state’s chief law enforcement officer, was caught on tape pledging support to a group of Somalis “who would soon become his family’s campaign donors and later Feeding Our Future criminal defendants.”

Did Minnesota AG Keith Ellison Help Somali Non-Profits Defraud State Taxpayers?   . . . "But the rot and corruption didn't stop there. It now appears that Minnesota's Attorney General Keith Ellison not only helped Somali non-profit groups continue to get funding, despite the numerous red flags popping up, but that he allegedly received campaign donations after doing so.

"We'll start with audio that reportedly shows Ellison promising to help Somali groups in exchange for campaign donations." . . .

"Yesterday, Townhall reported that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz was not only aware of the massive fraud taking place in his state — fraud that not only bilked Minnesota taxpayers of billions, but led to the death of at least one vulnerable Minnesota man and helped to fund Islamic terrorism in Somalia — but he was punishing whistleblowers who reported on the fraud."

How Minneapolis-Saint Paul became the Medicaid fraud capital of the USA. .

. ""The fraud spread so widely and quickly that it appeared to have no real architect. Word of the Feeding Our Future money galloped through the Somali community, which kept the secret from non-Somali Minnesota with ironclad discipline. The clan system acted as both pathway and protection for the fraud. One Twin Cities Somali alleged to me that most of the Feeding Our Future scammers were from the Hawiye clan, while a similar fraud, run through a group called Partners in Nutrition, was a Darod grift. Upon hearing this description of the frauds, another source alleged that while the vast majority of FOF scammers were in fact Darod, most of those prosecuted have been Hawiye. It is difficult to assess such claims, though they speak to the endurance of the clans as the chief organizing social framework for Somalis 35 years into the community’s arrival in free and democratic America, as well as the ease with which the clan can become a vector of corruption." . . .

Migrants becoming conquerors as Western nations continue to deny reality

Migrants becoming conquerors as Western nations continue to deny reality

"The only reason a person or people would stay in a country they openly despise is because they wish to conquer it.

"Muslim “migrants” are a rapidly increasing share of the population of most (formerly) Western nations.

"In America, every state in the union has at least one mosque; most have dozens. There are well over 100 Muslim elected officials, 39 of them in Michigan alone. Recently, in Dearborn, Michigan, nearly everyone in a crowd chanted “Death to America.”

"More than 100 years ago, Henry Ford allegedly said that his company’s Model T, made in Dearborn, was available in “any color the customer wants, as long as it’s black.” The city’s current mayor seems to be implying that its residents are free to choose any religion, as long as it’s Islam.

"Liberalism/progressivism/wokeism/leftism has so diseased a great many people's minds that they are no longer able to reason. Today’s “liberals” have become so besotted with empty virtue signaling or become so afraid of disagreeing with their tribe’s conventional “wisdom” that they are incapable of rational thought or effective discernment.

"The way to win a war without bloodshed is to capture people's minds first. Souls and bodies inevitably follow. After that has been achieved, it is easy to capture their country.

"Already, Muslim calls to prayer ring out across many of our cities. What would residents of, say, Detroit, Minneapolis, and Paris have said about this in, say, the 1950s? In some areas, Muslims have attempted to restrict the sale of pork and alcohol products, and even the rights of dog owners to go on walks in areas they inhabit.

"In others, they have complained about Christmas decorations. And, of course, countless Christian churches across the old and new worlds have been vandalized and destroyed.

"Get ready to dispense with music. And to make sure your womenfolk’s bodies are entirely hidden from the gaze of our beloved “migrants.”

"Welcome to the Fourth Caliphate, brought to you by tolerance, inclusiveness, and diversity.

"Inshallah."

The thought processes of Democrats make one fear for our nation

UPDATE: The Mamdani Model: More Socialist Mayors to Come 

  "I’ve written countless times in recent years about the model established by the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) to get its members elected to office. It’s a brilliantly cunning strategy that goes like this: . . 

Rich Terrell

. . . "First, the DSA identifies a Democrat-safe, if not guaranteed, district. These are areas where registered Democrats vastly outnumber Republicans; that is, where a Republican candidate has virtually no chance. 

Second, the DSA identifies offices in which the incumbent Democrat — typically, a more conventional Democrat, a party person — is highly vulnerable. That part of the process is crucial. It must be a target of opportunity in which the incumbent can be defeated in the party primary.

"Third, the DSA recruits a member — someone with charisma and political skills — willing and capable of challenging and defeating the incumbent." . . .

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell rejects locking up repeat criminals during tense debate | New York Post

"Repeat offenders have been a part of the national conversation with respect to crimes in recent weeks after several high-profile murders carried out by suspects with lengthy criminal records, including in North Carolina where Ukrainian Iryna Zarutska was stabbed 

to death on a train by a suspect with a long history of arrests going back more than a decade, including charges of felony larceny, robbery with a dangerous weapon and communicating threats." . . .

. . . Seattle Red talk show host Jason Rantz, who first posted about Harrell’s debate response, told Fox News Digital that the mayor’s “governing philosophy” was on display. 

“Harrell says he has ‘no desire’ to jail an eight-time criminal. Well, the feeling’s mutual, because criminals in Seattle clearly have no desire to stop offending,” Rantz said. 

Dems move to set limits on Trump’s donor-funded White House ballroom, claiming ‘bribery in plain sight’    . . . "Meanwhile, the White House dismissed the measure and Democrats’ efforts to impose new restrictions on donations.

next to a trans opponent. (Courtesy of America First Policy Institute)

"When Alexa Anderson and Reese Eckard stepped off the podium at Oregon's girls' state track championship in May, they weren't staging a tantrum. They were taking a stand. Third and fourth place in the high jump after years of grueling practice, the two Tigard High School seniors refused to share the moment with a transgender athlete who had cleared the bar for fifth. 

"In that quiet act of dissent, they exposed the raw fault lines in the push to redefine fairness in women's sports. Anderson, now a freshman at the University of South Alabama, earned her bronze medal the hard way. Four seasons of early mornings, sore muscles, and quiet determination led her to that podium. Yet officials, after forcing the protesters out of the championship photo, promised to ship the medals to the school. 

"They didn't. Not for months. Only after Anderson and Eckard sued the Oregon School Activities Association, alleging a First Amendment violation, did the medals arrive, quietly forwarded to their lawyers at the America First Policy Institute. U.S. District Judge Youlee Yim You's recent denial of the OSAA's motion to dismiss underscores the case's merit. 

"The association had argued against claims of selective censorship, pointing to allowed displays of Black Lives Matter slogans and pride flags at events. Anderson has seen it firsthand: Shirts, pins, and banners celebrating those causes drew no ire during her high school career." . . . 

She is a hero! Alexa Anderson walked away from the medal podium at the Oregon State Championship to protest a male athlete. In response to this she was threatened & received death threats. The Oregon HS sports league won’t give her medal to her!

 "Too many Americans seek and cheer violence right now.  Too many Americans are eager for civil war.  If we cannot lower the temperature in this country, Charlie’s murder will presage an unbearable slaughter to come." 

zikoko.com

"The political assassination of Charlie Kirk continues to impact America.  Charlie’s conservative nonprofit organization, Turning Point USA, has seen a surge in membership.  There are reports across the country of increased church attendance, as lapsed congregants contemplate the sacrifice Charlie made to spread a Christian message.  Conservative and Christian Americans are expressing themselves more boldly on social media platforms and college campuses.

"An equally important, though darkly troubling, consequence of his murder has been the deluge of mockery and hatred from leftists celebrating Charlie’s death.  Antifa-aligned groups show up on college campuses to attack Turning Point staff and prevent students from hearing Charlie’s arguments.  Prominent Democrats continue to pretend that violent leftist rhetoric had nothing to do with his murder.  Celebrity “journalists” defend Charlie’s assassination by not-so-subtly suggesting that Charlie’s willingness to debate a range of political and moral issues with Americans of all political backgrounds constituted some kind of impermissible “hate” or linguistic “violence.”

"In a recent interview with Democrat Senator John Fetterman, leftist propagandist Katie Couric tried really hard to blame Charlie for his own murder.  “Did you have any issues, now in hindsight, over some of the things that Charlie Kirk said?” Couric asked Fetterman.  When the senator responded with compassion for Charlie’s family and pointed out that “engaging in debate would never justify what’s happened,” Couric nonetheless insisted, “I think some people might say Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric was extreme. ... People think his words lead to violence.”  

"Breaking news, Katie: During the height of the civil rights movement, people worried that Martin Luther King, Jr.’s words would lead to violence, too.  His assassination did not dispel the truth of his message.  The same is true of Charlie.

"When famous “reporters” such as Couric so conspicuously work to justify a leftist-inspired political assassination, non-leftists pay attention.  As one social media account posted, “Charlie was a moderate Christian conservative.  If Katie thinks he ‘deserved’ this because of his beliefs, she thinks we ALL deserve the same thing.”  A lot of non-leftist Americans have realized over the last two months that leftists want them dead." . . .

Newsom, Not Trump, Is Code Red for America

An ABC interview shows the California governor’s cards  

"But it isn’t President Trump. The Code Red’s name is California’s Governor Gavin Newsom. And he wants to be president. Buckle in."

"Well, of course.

"Here’s this headline over there at Real Clear Politics: “Newsom: Trump Is ‘Code Red’ For America, ‘I’m Disgusted That People Aren’t More Outraged.’”

"The story reports that California’s Governor Gavin Newsom was recently interviewed by ABC’s Jonathan Karl, saying this:

“I really am scared to death about what’s going on in this country. I really believe it is Code Red,” he said. “We won’t have a country. We won’t have an election that’s fair and free if we don’t stand up. We won’t. There will not be a fair and free election. It’ll be a Putin election. Was it 87 percent or is it 87.3 percent? That’s what Trump wants.”

" All the pardoning, all the, this, this great grift — the biggest, most corrupt administration in history. Not just the $400 million plane, but the billion dollars of your tax money, as we’re cutting food stamps to pay for the damn plane so he can take that toy home with his foundation when he’s 93 or whatever he’s done with his fourth or fifth term.

"…I really am scared to death about what’s going on in this country. I really believe it is Code Red. We won’t have a country. We won’t have an election that’s fair and free if we don’t stand up. We won’t. There will not be a fair and free election. It’ll be a Putin election. Was it 87 percent or is it 87.3 percent? That’s what Trump wants.”

"Well, aside from the hysteria, one can only wonder: Where was Gavin Newsom when clan Biden was using the presidency to loot for the family business of enriching that family business? Where was the Newsom outrage?

"It didn’t exist.

"Here’s a headline from Newsweek: “Joe Biden May Have ‘Fostered’ Family’s Corruption, Legal Analyst Warns.”

"This gem, straight from a liberal media outlet, reports:

"Legal analyst Jonathan Turley paints a stark picture of President Joe Biden and his family as corrupt “grifters” and “influence peddlers.”

Turley, a professor of public interest law at the George Washington University Law School, said the Bidens are leaning into the “grifter defense” because it makes any alleged crimes or improper business dealings look less serious.

However, Turley told Newsweek, grifting is still corruption.

“If the president knew his family was engaged in ‘influence peddling,’ the president by definition is corrupt. The current defense doesn’t have the legs to carry the president out of the scandal,” Turley said via a telephone interview on Saturday. “Factually, it’s becoming more difficult to see how the president wasn’t aware of the influence peddling.”

"All of that and nary a peep from Gavin Newsom while all of this Biden corruption was ongoing in the White House? Imagine that. (RELATED: The Biden Corruption)" . . .More...

Will anyone rescue New York City from its dark destiny this time?

 The voices of young college-aged women cheering Mamdani's about his plans for New York's economy and police forces sound to me like the same ones I hear cheering Hamas's murdering of Israeli families, cooking infants alive in Jewish kitchen ovens, and making keffiyeh - muffled shouts of "Death to America!" and "Death to Israel!" on American campuses. Being economically ignorant as is the childlike Zohran, they are all a complement with the likes of Jasmine Crockett, AOC,and most of those sitting to the right of the person giving the SOTU and can be spotted wearing matching (Usually white) outfits and flashing paddle signs.  The Tunnel Dweller

Will anyone rescue New York City from its dark destiny this time?   ..."Remember President Ford’s “Drop Dead” retort?

"Faced with New York City’s looming insolvency, New York State Governor Hugh Carey—an old school Democrat—recruited Felix Rohatyn, the distinguished, august senior partner at the largest investment banking house in both the city and the world, Lazard Freres. Rohatyn was an exquisite financial wizard, navigating, negotiating, and delivering complex financial deals—profitable, innovative, and durable.

"Felix Rohatyn might have been the most trusted and respected financial titan since the likes of J.P. Morgan and Andrew Mellon.

"Governor Carey, with Rohatyn, formed the Municipal Finance Corp. and the New York State Financial Control Board, which commandeered operational and financial control of New York City.

"Carey championed massive loan guarantees from New York and engineered state legislation to enact sweeping tax cuts and regulatory reforms that jump-started New York state’s economy. This provided the confidence and trust enabling Rohatyn to not only refinance New York City’s debt, but to convince President Ford to shelve his “Drop-dead” posture towards New York City. Ford signed the New York City Seasonal Financing Act, through which the city secured some $2 billion in direct loans and additional loan guarantees.

"So, here we are, fifty years later, with 33-year-old communist, antisemite, and Islamic terrorist sympathizer Zohran Mamdani, who knows nothing—zero, zilch about finance or governance in any public space or the private sphere—on the cusp of being elected Mayor of New York City.

"Mamdani’s communist manifesto for New York City, calling for higher taxes, wealth redistribution, rent control, free food, free health care, free transportation, and more, including dismantling the NYPD and FDNY, will not only defy gravity but will also make the city uninhabitable.

"Hugh Carey and Felix Rohatyn clones don’t exist. New York City’s dark destiny, which won’t be confined to the five boroughs, is a hellscape about to unfold and descend upon the greatest metropolis the world has ever seen." . . . 

New York City Has Fallen, Socialist Mamdani Elected Mayor    "The capital of American capitalism, a longtime beacon of prosperity, opportunity, and innovation, has just elected its first openly socialist mayor. He has pledged to punish the wealthy, crack down on landlords, freeze rents, open city-run grocery stores, make public transit free, and tackle the city's crime through “mental health services,” whatever that may entail. Mamdani will also be the city’s first Muslim mayor."

"What this moment makes clear is that Republicans must seriously re-engage in the debate between free markets and socialism, more vigorously than ever before. That means advancing economic plans that demonstrate the power, effectiveness, and fairness of the free market, not just more tax cuts. Republicans have too often lost the rhetorical battle over economic systems. For too long, capitalism has been equated with maintaining the status quo; it must now stand for something greater amid the growing discontent in America’s cities. Let’s restore the honor and dignity of work, revive the American work ethic, and reduce our dependence on government welfare programs and on government itself to solve our problems."

Meet the Conservative Black Scholar Standing Up to BLM Dogma

The Daily Sceptic 

"The Gay Affair: A Window into Academic Corruption . . . The intellectual theft was undeniable and symbolic of a culture that prizes ideology over integrity."

. . . "Her seminal 1993 book, Black Faces, Black Interests: The Representation of African Americans in Congress, broke with the prevailing orthodoxy of racial politics. It argued that genuine representation transcends race, a message that infuriated progressives but won widespread acclaim, including citations in US Supreme Court decisions.

"The book resurfaced 26 years later when evidence emerged that Harvard President Claudine Gay, who had long opposed Swain’s views, had plagiarised portions of it in her doctoral thesis. The plagiarism scandal, coupled with Gay’s handling of antisemitism on campus, ultimately led to her resignation in 2024. Swain chronicled this saga in her 2025 book The Gay Affair: Harvard Plagiarism and the Death of Academic Integrity, which exposes not only Gay’s misconduct but the deeper rot of academic corruption and ideological conformity within elite universities." . . .

"Having achieved everything academia could offer, Swain says she found herself deeply unfulfilled, until she rediscovered her faith in Christ. “After tenure and promotion, I was miserable,” she said. Swain suffered from depression and suicidal gestures. This was eventually overcome once she became a believer in Jesus. Her faith also cured her chronic shyness. Swain’s Christian conviction now anchors her fight against the ideological decay she sees in America’s universities.

"Swain also spoke about the growing backlash against Left-wing indoctrination on campus. “Major donors are withdrawing funding, parents are losing faith in universities, and many young people are turning to alternative forms of education,” she noted. “People are waking up.”    On Black Lives Matter and Moral Clarity:

"At the Cambridge Union debate, Swain’s critique of Black Lives Matter was as incisive as ever. She said:

Consider the fact that the slogan ‘Black Lives Matter’ is a true statement about the value of Black human life. BLM, the organisation, however, is a different animal. The two are not morally equivalent. BLM stated an intention to end systemic racism and police brutality — worthy goals to the extent these problems still exist — but its methods contradicted these aims.

"Despite facing a largely unsympathetic student audience, Swain and her fellow speakers ultimately prevailed — the motion was defeated by a large margin.

"Her victory, modest as it may seem, symbolised something larger: a growing weariness with progressive orthodoxy and a renewed appetite for moral clarity, intellectual honesty, and courage in public life." . . .More, Including several video clips of her Fenton interview....

The Mamdani Exodus

 Tablet Magazine  Faced with rising antisemitism and a radical would-be mayor, New York’s Jewish artists confront a once unthinkable question: Is it time to flee?

"Supporting Israel in any way became the one stance that could destroy your reputation in New York’s creative world."

. . . "But history is rarely fair. And the story isn’t new. In 1933, German Jewish author Lion Feuchtwanger wrote The Oppermanns, a novel about an assimilated Jewish family in Berlin as antisemitism grows around them. They find themselves slowly losing everything as a new ideology grips their friends, clients, colleagues, and teachers. Each time, they assume it’s a passing storm. As we, the readers, know, it wasn’t. The Holocaust that followed could never have been predicted at the time of the book’s writing, but in hindsight, all the signs were there.

"Are American Jews the Oppermanns of today? Have we placed too much faith in a system untested by this level of hatred? Will future generations look back and ask how we could’ve possibly missed the red flags? A mayoral candidate who wouldn’t condemn “Globalize the Intifada.” The violent takeover of Columbia University’s campus. “Zionists get out!” chanted on the subway. People tucking their Stars of David under their shirts. Like Tevye’s family at the end of Fiddler on the Roof, perhaps it’s time to pack up and leave our current Anatevka. Is Israel, even under constant threat, the last refuge for Jews on earth?

"This story’s conclusion is still unwritten. The question isn’t only whether New York has fallen. It’s whether Jews, and those who stand with them, can turn the tide. Leaving is one option, and perhaps a very reasonable one. But so is fighting for a city that has always been an example of resilience and hope. Perhaps the harder path is refusing to surrender New York to those who would see it emptied of Jewish life."

Docile American liberals can easily be taught to shake their fists and chant "Death to America!"

What Happened to the Democratic Party? -

 The Democratic Party Is Dying a Painful Death 

 . . . "And that’s not all. It fixates on Trump. It frames allowing trans women to play women’s sports as the social justice fight of our time (but can’t really articulate why). It advocates legal access to abortion (even though It had 50 years to codify Roe and failed to do so). And It demonizes anyone who doesn’t agree, anyone who votes red – even those voting GOP in the desperate hope it will result in a sliver of financial relief. Instead of courting disenfranchised middle-American voters, the Dems vilify them as racists and bigots."...

Rich Terrell

America began to see this back in 2016, but see what Democrats have become in the ensuing years.  

Democrats are now the 'party of evil'  . . . "It’s the Democrat Party and the nasty “progressives” who’ve taken it over and are willing to say or do anything or destroy anyone to bring down President Trump.

"Maybe this is not something new. Maybe the Democrats have always been this evil.

"Maybe my father foresaw the future when he said in the early 1960s that he didn’t leave the Democrat Party, the party left him." . . .

Democrats are spiraling into irrelevance. Good riddance - Los Angeles Times 

 . . . There is nothing good down that road for the national Democratic Party, as a whole. In order to demonstrate that the party has learned anything from its 2024 shellacking and its current abysmal standing, it will have to sound and act less crazy on the tangible issues that affect Americans’ day-to-day lives.

"That isn’t happening. If Mamdani’s rise is representative — and it may well be, especially as other far-left firebrands like Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) continue to make outsize noise — then Democrats seem to be moving in the exact opposite direction: full-on Marxism and woke craziness." . . . 

 The Democratic Party is Evil, And Has No Excuse For It

. . . "But individual treachery is not what is happening in America today. What we're seeing is an entire ideological movement of hatred, selfishness, and violence. This is not individual; this is ideological. This is what the Left IS, it’s what it believes, it’s what it has done for over 100 years now in various parts of the world, and it has taken over the Democratic Party in the United States, and is now the ideological foundation for half the country. No, this is not the isolated monster who roams our streets. It is 100% the ideology of the Democratic Party. They are fully behind it and that's not the way it was before." . . .

Michigan church shooting leaves 4 dead, suspect identified as 40-year-old man  "Sadly, the spate of mass shootings we’ve been seeing in this country continued Sunday morning, as at least 10 people were shot and two killed in a nightmarish shooting at an LDS church in Michigan."

"Authorities are still working to recover additional victims after a violent attack on a Mormon church in Michigan left at least four people dead on Sunday.

"Thomas Jacob Sanford, 40, of Burton, Michigan, is accused of ramming his truck into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, just before 10:30 a.m. Police said he then got out of the truck and started firing on churchgoers with a rifle. About 150 people were attending services at the time. Police said Sanford then used an accelerant, likely gasoline, to set the church on fire. Sanford was shot and killed by police. 

"Police confirmed that four people have died. Seven others are in stable condition, and one remains in critical condition. Two victims were killed by gunfire while the other two were found after the fire. 

President Trump posted:

"The FBI was immediately on scene, and will be leading the Federal Investigation, and providing full support to State and Local Officials," Trump wrote. "The suspect is dead, but there is still a lot to learn. This appears to be yet another targeted attack on Christians in the United States of America. The Trump Administration will keep the Public posted, as we always do. In the meantime, PRAY for the victims, and their families. THIS EPIDEMIC OF VIOLENCE IN OUR COUNTRY MUST END, IMMEDIATELY!"

"On September 28, 2025, a devastating attack shook Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, when 40-year-old Thomas Jacob Sanford, a U.S. Marine veteran, crashed his Chevy Silverado into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, opened fire, killed two, injured nine, and set the building ablaze. This true crime documentary dives into the chaos of the assault, from shattered glass and gunfire to the discovery of pipe bombs wired with nails. Thomas, a family man with a son battling congenital hyperinsulinism, seemed ordinary—yet signs of unrest emerged, like a “Stop Trump Vance” sign on his fence and unverified claims of political donations. Was this a targeted strike against the LDS faith or a veteran’s descent into chaos?"

Unapologetic Jimmy Kimmel Still Delivering Politics Instead of Punchlines

 The American Spectator  

"America needs jokes now more than ever. Last night, Jimmy Kimmel instead gave them another diatribe. In comedy, boring offends most."

"Rosanne Barr returned to ABC’s airwaves last night after a seven-year exile.

Just kidding.

"Jimmy Kimmel returned to ABC’s airwaves after a seven-day exile.

That was my attempt at a joke. Kimmel, who increasingly delivers speeches instead of punchlines, should try one sometime. (RELATED: The Return of Jimmy Kimmel)

When the network canned Roseanne for offensive comments issued on her own time, that amounted to freedom of association. When the network suspended Kimmel for offensive comments on its airwaves, that amounted to censorship.

"The Left sees everything backwards in a funhouse-mirror reflection that distorts reality to its liking.

"ABC suspended Kimmel last Wednesday after he attempted to characterize the murderer of Charlie Kirk as essentially subscribing to the same views as his victim. This follows a long-established pattern of people living in an ideological hallucination, denying reality and instead conveniently blaming the people they hate for political assassinations and other atrocities. (RELATED: Jimmy Kimmel Is Living in a Material World)

"A Communist did not murder John F. Kennedy, they have insisted for the last 62 years — the John Birch Society or the CIA or some other villain straight out from Progressive, Inc.’s central casting did it. Black Muslims didn’t murder Malcolm X, George W. Bush really engineered 9/11, and a furry-enthusiast sharing a bed with a transgender paramour, radicalized to the Left according to his family, repeatedly complaining that Kirk spread “hate,” and writing anti-fascist slogans on his assassin’s tools did not kill the Turning Point USA founder — a MAGA Republican did it.

"MAGA Republicans, at least in the Boston market, could find some irony in a commercial for Join.ICE.gov airing in the block of ads immediately preceding the program. Jimmy Kimmel Live started with a cable-news montage of commentary on the controversy that resulted in the host’s brief suspension — and undoubtedly a brief boost in ratings." . . .

Parody: Rough Week For Liberal Comedy As Kimmel's, Colbert's Monthly Cycles Sync Up

It sounds like the restless natives won . . . " Let's see what happens. Whether Jimmy returns or not, the people who watch TV between San Francisco and Washington D.C. are making their feelings heard. They are sick and tired, as I am, of programming under FCC licenses that turn into infomercials for the Democrats.

What else do you call "The View" but an informercial? It's 60 minutes of ladies attacking President Trump. They call it "free speech," but in fact it's an unbalanced discussion of events. Yes, we have a right to look at their licenses and remind them that they are not serving their community's interest. Again, check out Sinclair and Nexstar."

Jimmy Kimmel Insists He Hadn’t Meant to Brand Charlie Kirk’s Alleged Assassin as MAGA  . . . "Again, Disney/ABC pulled Kimmel because of the false accusations due to consumer anger:

• ABC station owners told Disney about their concerns with the comments
• Advertisers called in about the comments
• Nexstar and Sinclair threatened to preempt the show

"It had nothing to do with the FCC comments."

Watch: Kimmel Makes It About Himself, Delivers Emotional Non-Apology on His Return  . . . "There was no government suppression of your show, Jimmy. If there had been, you wouldn't be back on so quickly. Private companies can pull you for saying something you shouldn't, that they know is wrong, or that they think adversely affects their bottom line. That's America, and you suffer the consequences of being a horrible human being. Government suppression is what happened with Google because of pressure from the Biden team."

Hot Takes: People Demolish Kimmel for 'Crocodile Tears,' Point Out Where Real Suppression Has Been    . . . "I reported earlier on Jimmy Kimmel's non-apology emotional statement. 

"He was very emotional and said he didn't intend to blame any group in his comment. Yet he did, whether he admits it or not. Then, even in these new comments, he refused to acknowledge what the authorities have said is the leftist politics of the alleged killer. Jimmy Kimmel made it about him, alleging suppression by the government."
