1. Just so we’re clear, this is the clip that got Jimmy Kimmel’s show shelved by ABC.

If I’m missing any other clips please let me know.

if you don't think the colbert/kimmel shit is going to affect every standup comic in the nation you're kidding yourself

going into open mic and making a maga joke could get the club targetted and you'd best believe club owners keep lists of comics they won't book anymore for any number of reasons

Federal government forces Jimmy Kimmel off the air. RIP First Amendment.

Adam Serwer, who is back after a few months of book leave, writes:

Charlie Kirk should still be alive. His wife should not be widowed. His children should still have their father. Political murder is an attack on the self-determination of the people, and it should always be condemned in the strongest terms. It is also true that the administration's use of Kirk's death as a pretext to censor its opposition is as cynical as it is destructive to fundamental American rights and freedoms. Conservative outrage over some of what was said after Kirk's murder is understandable — people getting mad at one another over what they say is part of living in a free society. What happened to Kimmel is something different: a state-backed campaign of repression.
