Today's Headlines: Trump is sending troops to Portland to “protect” ICE facilities he claims are under Antifa siege, though Oregon's governor says there's no threat—just protests. This follows his new directive labeling Antifa a “domestic terrorist organization” (which isn't a real legal thing), with criteria for identifying extremists that sound like a laundry list of being vaguely left-wing. It's all feeding into DOJ efforts to investigate George Soros' Open Society Foundation. Meanwhile, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has summoned nearly 800 generals to Virginia for a rare “warrior ethos” pep talk. Trump says it's all about “esprit de corps.” Meanwhile, Sinclair and Nexstar backed off their Jimmy Kimmel ban, Trump is now demanding Microsoft fire exec Lisa Monaco after a Laura Loomer nudge and DNI Tulsi Gabbard killed the long-term global threats report. Additonally, the DOJ is suing six states over voter registration data and a Michigan church massacre left four dead and more injured. Netanyahu's UN speech sparked a massive walkout, and NYC's Eric Adams dropped out of his own reelection bid. In Congress, Republicans are stalling the swearing-in of a new Democrat to block the Epstein files petition, even as Marjorie Taylor Greene swears she's “not suicidal” while backing it. And, just to keep things weird, Trump wants the government to release the Amelia Earhart files.

Send us a textIn this episode of iCritic LIVE, we dive into the surprising reversal by Sinclair Broadcast Group, which has decided to bring Jimmy Kimmel back to its affiliate lineup after previously sidelining the late-night host. What changed—and what does this say about the shifting dynamics between content, controversy, and corporate strategy? We unpack the behind-the-scenes pressures that led to the cave-in, explore Kimmel's enduring appeal, and examine how this move fits into Sinclair's broader media posture.But the story doesn't end there. Nexstar, another major player in the local TV landscape, may not be following suit. We break down why Nexstar's calculus could be different, what's at stake for its affiliates, and how this tug-of-war over late-night programming reflects deeper tensions in the broadcast world.From ratings to reputations, this episode is a sharp look at how media giants navigate public perception, political pressure, and the power of personality.

Ravi Gupta and guest host Stephen Webber, filling in for Jason Kander, break down Jimmy Kimmel's monologue defending a free press and his thanks to Republicans who stood up for him, as Trump escalates the fight with a Truth Social post promising to “test ABC out” while right-wing outlets like Nexstar and Sinclair continue their boycott. They analyze Tim Miller's sharp critique and the fallout from Charlie Kirk's assassination, including Trump's speech at the memorial, Kyle Tharp's report that Turning Point USA gained more than 30 million followers, and Oklahoma's mandate that every high school host a TPUSA chapter. Gupta and Webber also discuss Trump's embarrassing UN appearance, complete with a broken escalator and a disastrous speech, before diving into his bizarre promotion of debunked Tylenol-autism claims that drew pushback from scientists, doctors, and journalists alike. Plus, they cover Trump's reversal on Ukraine and NATO air defense, the FBI's undercover bribery probe into border czar Tom Homan, and why the Justice Department abruptly shut it down.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (09/24/2025): 3:05pm- On Tuesday night, “Jimmy Kimmel Live” returned to airwaves following a brief suspension stemming from Kimmel's objectionable comments on the killing of Charlie Kirk. Nexstar and Sinclair—which operate a combined 60+ ABC affiliates—did not air Kimmel's return. 3:30pm- On Wednesday, a shooter opened fire on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas, Texas—leaving two immigrants dead and several others injured. According to FBI officials, the shooter is believed to have been targeting ICE officers leaving behind bullets with “anti-ICE” engraved on the casings. 3:35pm- In the aftermath of Wednesday's attack on ICE, Senator Ted Cruz implored Democratic politicians to stop demonizing ICE agents and immediately cease using purposefully divisive language—like comparing political opponents to “Nazis.” 3:40pm- Rich plays a montage compiled by @WesternLensman on X which showcases Congressmembers Hakeem Jeffries, Dan Goldman, Pramila Jayapal, Maxwell Frost, Ilhan Omar, Jerry Nadler, Eric Swalwell habitually comparing ICE agents to the gestapo and terrorists, and accusing them of “disappearing” people. 3:45pm- Earlier this month, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett shamefully compared ICE agents to “slave patrols.” When asked whether her rhetoric has crossed the line, Crockett doubled down—baselessly accusing Trump of using Hitler's playbook and accusing the sitting president of being an enemy of the United States. 4:00pm- MSNBC correspondent Rosa Flores quickly dismissed FBI statements regarding the ICE shooter's motive—claiming it's still too early to tell despite anti-ICE engravings on the shooter's bullet casings. Flores went on to say: “A lot of these ICE agents have been masked, so it has been very divisive.” 4:40pm- Even The Atlantic is now acknowledging “left-wing terrorism is on the rise”—and the article was published PRIOR to today's attack on a Dallas, Texas ICE facility. 5:05pm- On Tuesday night, “Jimmy Kimmel Live” returned to airwaves following a brief suspension stemming from Kimmel's objectionable comments on the killing of Charlie Kirk. Nexstar and Sinclair—which operate a combined 60+ ABC affiliates—did not air Kimmel's return. 5:15pm- Flashback: In 2023, Jimmy Kimmel openly celebrated Tucker Carlson being fired from Fox News. 5:30pm- Turkey legs at Disneyland vs Coke Cola in Italy. Plus, Ben Affleck's daughter delivered a long rant about COVID-19 to the United Nations General Assembly. 6:05pm- On Wednesday, Vice President JD Vance delivered remarks from Concord, North Carolina where he addressed the attack on an ICE facility that occurred earlier in the day, condemning the violent act and imploring Democrats to stop with over-the-top, divisive rhetoric. 6:15pm- In her latest article for The New York Post, reporter Isabel Vincent documents how Democrats have purposefully “distorted” Charlie Kirk's words. You can read the article here: https://nypost.com/2025/09/23/us-news/charlie-kirks-words-are-being-distorted-and-weaponized-against-him-heres-what-he-really-said/. 6:20pm- While appearing on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow, former Vice President Kamala Harris was asked to clarify an excerpt from her new book, “107 Days,” in which claims she chose not to select Pete Buttigieg as her 2024 running mate because he is gay. Harris denied the allegation—but then backtracked and bizarrely added that she couldn't pick Buttigieg since his sexual orientation posed a campaign “risk.” On Wednesday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent—who is openly gay—responded to Harris's statement by explaining: “you wouldn't pick Pete Buttigieg because he might have been the worst Transportation Secretary in history. She judges him on his identity, his sexuality… let's look and see whether he did a good job. Let's look at merit, and I can tell you, on merit he's a failure. And on merit, she's a failure.” 6:30pm- According to early reports, Jimmy Kimmel's return ...

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (09/23/2025): 3:05pm- A jury has found Ryan Routh guilty of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump at his golf course in Palm Springs, Florida in 2024. Routh was also found guilty of several firearm violations and of assaulting a federal law enforcement officer. Routh, who made the unusual decision of representing himself in court, attempted to stab himself after hearing the jury's verdict. 3:30pm- While appearing on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow, former Vice President Kamala Harris was asked to clarify an excerpt from her new book, “107 Days,” in which claims she chose not to select Pete Buttigieg as her 2024 running mate because he is gay.

I thought it was obvious.” However, in October 2024, Harris told The View, “there is not a thing that comes to mind” when asked what she would do differently than Joe Biden. 3:40pm- Kimmel is Back: Last week, ABC/Disney indefinitely suspended “Jimmy Kimmel Live”—following Kimmel's comments on the killing of Charlie Kirk. The late-night host shamefully accused Republicans of using the death to “score political points.” While the network's move appeared to be a result of Kimmel's comments coupled with poor ratings, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr suggested his department could potentially investigate ABC/Disney over Kimmel's vitriolic remarks—muddying the waters. Many expressed concern that Carr's warning amounted to a First Amendment violation. On Monday, ABC/Disney announced that the suspension had concluded, and Kimmel will be back on-air Tuesday night. However, Nexstar and Sinclair—which operate a combined 60 ABC affiliates—announced they will not air “Jimmy Kimmel Live” despite the suspension's cessation. 4:05pm- While speaking with the press alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President Trump suggested he would be open to the idea of NATO allies shooting down Russian aircrafts.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Jimmy Kimmel's disputed return to television, a plot to disable New York City's cell network as Trump spoke at the UN, and fresh data showing who really commits the most political violence in America. From free speech battles to global threats and a debate over Left vs. Right violence, today's brief delivers facts and analysis shaping America's future.   Jimmy Kimmel's Return and Free Speech Debate: Democrats celebrated Kimmel's return, calling his suspension “the worst government attack on free speech in generations.” CNN's Jake Tapper said it was “the most direct infringement by the government on free speech that I've seen in my lifetime.” But YouTube admitted Biden's White House pressured them to silence millions of Americans, including Charlie Kirk, proving censorship was far broader than Kimmel's case. Sinclair and Nexstar still refused to air Kimmel without an apology, sparking threats from Democrats to break up the networks.   Trump Stuck on UN Escalator and Plots in New York: Security failures left Trump and the First Lady stranded on an escalator before his UN speech, followed by a mic and teleprompter outage. “What is the purpose of the United Nations? … A bad escalator and a bad teleprompter,” Trump quipped. Meanwhile, authorities uncovered a clandestine device network capable of shutting down NYC's cell service, calling it an “imminent threat” from foreign state actors. Trump's speech then blasted Venezuela's cartels, Europe's immigration and energy policies, Russia's war, and calls for Palestinian statehood — declaring of Europe, “Your countries are going to hell.”   Left vs. Right Violence — Who Commits More: Listener Wendy asked who really drives political violence. The Atlantic reported on new CSIS data finding “this year — 2025 — marks the first time in more than 30 years that left-wing attacks outnumber those from the far right.” Bryan points to Antifa and Marxist groups as proof the Left's war is escalating, reminding listeners: “We live in a revolution. Their revolution. And if you disagree with them, you're to be targeted.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Jimmy Kimmel suspension FCC free speech, CNN Jake Tapper free speech quote, YouTube Biden censorship admission, Sinclair Nexstar Kimmel broadcast, Trump UN escalator teleprompter failure, NYC cell network plot foreign state actors, Trump UN speech Venezuela cartels, Trump Europe immigration climate hoax, Trump NATO shoot down Russia jets, Gaza Palestinian state recognition, Wendy listener question political violence, CSIS study left-wing terrorism rise, The Atlantic left-wing attacks 2025

Today's Headlines: Jimmy Kimmel may be back on ABC's late-night lineup, but viewers in markets like Salt Lake City, Nashville, and New Orleans didn't get the show—thanks to Nexstar and Sinclair, which own nearly 70 ABC affiliates and refused to air it. Meanwhile, the UN General Assembly in Manhattan is serving drama: Trump told NATO to shoot down Russian aircraft, promised Ukraine could reclaim all its lost territory, and in a glitchy, rambling speech claimed he ended seven wars, trashed climate science, and basically asked for a Nobel Prize before bailing on diplomats. He also canceled a budget meeting with Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries. The Secret Service, on the other hand, actually did something: it dismantled a huge illegal telecom network in NYC that had the capacity to send 30 million texts per minute, potentially crashing cell service citywide. Across the pond, the UK is telling people to ignore Trump's Tylenol-autism warnings, with the health secretary quipping he trusts doctors over Trump. Also in court news, Ryan Routh—the man who tried to assassinate Trump on his golf course last year—was found guilty on all charges and tried to stab himself in the neck after the verdict (unsuccessfully). Finally, a hacker broke into Nexar, a dashcam data company, exposing footage of everyday drivers—including one on the way to CIA HQ—and revealing its client list of government agencies buying that data.  Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: CNBC: Nexstar-owned ABC affiliates won't show Kimmel's return Tuesday, joining Sinclair in preempting program AP News: Live updates: Trump says Ukraine can win back territory lost to Russia PBS: Trump cancels meeting with Schumer and Jeffries on keeping the government open CBS News: U.S. Secret Service disrupts telecom network that threatened NYC during U.N.

After being pulled by ABC, Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show returned to TV last night. Thing is, station groups Nexstar and Sinclair — which control ABC affiliates that reach about 20% of the country — opted out. Nexstar is working on a $6 billion merger with Tegna, awaiting Trump administration approval. All of this highlights a widening gap between big TV networks and local station owners. And later: If Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill can't reach a deal, many federal agencies will close a week from today.

Kimmel returns to Disney but Sinclar and Nexstar stand firm and run other programming in his slot. The irony of Kimmel's "censorship" beef is the now-admitted magnitude of censorship of Conservatives during Biden's presidency. Google now admits it was pressured by the Biden admin to ban voices that were asking questions during the pandemic. YouTube says Bongino, Bannon, Crowder, Gorka, Mike Lindell and even I can return to their platform! If their disgusting weaponizing and collusion wasn't offputting enough, who would ever go back?

Donald Trump managed to take it personally when an escalator at the UN General Assembly stopped working while he was on it. Jen Psaki takes the opportunity to observe another instance of the "Donald Trump rage cycle," and points out that the thin-skinned president's petty tyrades are less intimidating the more people learn to stand up to him.Jen Psaki revisits MSNBC reporting from the weekend about the FBI investigating Trump border czar Tom Homan until the investigation was suddenly dropped, and reviews a litany of cuts to the government's anti-corruption capacity.The pressure campaign against Disney/ABC appears to have worked, and Jimmy Kimmel is to return to the airwaves, but many Americans won't be able to make the choice to watch him or not on their own because Nexstar and Sinclair, the media conglomerates that own their local ABC station, may have a financial interest in appeasing Donald Trump rather than serving local communities. FCC Commissioner Anna Gomez, the lone Democratic appointee on the commission, joins Jen Psaki to discuss the dynamics at play.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela kick things off with reports about Brigitte Macron's court filing, Anthony Weiner's unwanted proof of masculinity, and even a study suggesting chimpanzees regularly enjoy the equivalent of two cocktails a day. The conversation turns serious as the panel covers Charlie Kirk's memorial service in Arizona, spotlighting a moving moment of forgiveness from his wife Erika Kirk and Donald Trump's remarks. They move to the ongoing Jimmy Kimmel controversy, as the group breaks down his suspension, Disney's decision to pause his show, and the move by Sinclair Broadcast Group and Nexstar affiliates to block his return unless he issues an apology to the Kirk family. They contrast late-night television's decline with the rise of podcasts and streaming, underscoring the broader shift in entertainment. From there, they riff on Steven Seagal's bizarre SNL hosting history, debate whether certain actors should embrace baldness, and react to headlines about the Brett Kavanaugh assassination attempt suspect now identifying as transgender. The show closes with lighter commentary on women's prison dynamics, everyday survival in confinement, and a satirical imagining of Antifa-themed board games. Learn more about your ad choices.

An episode that connects two headline-making moments and asks the hard questions: why did Disney briefly suspend Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and why are major ABC station groups still refusing to air his return? We trace the fallout — from Disney's suspension to Sinclair and Nexstar's decision to preempt the show — and why that escalation exploded into a national debate over free speech, platform moderation, and media double standards. Then we pivot to the U.N. moment everyone is talking about: the escalator stall, teleprompter trouble, and claims about altered audio during the president's speech — incidents the U.N. calls a mechanical mishap while the White House questions whether it was accidental. We play back the reactions, unpack how those glitches were used on both sides as political evidence, and examine what it says about trust in institutions and broadcasted truth. Finally, we pull the thread: how comedy, politics, and technical snafus spark culture-war narratives; why audiences on different sides hear entirely different stories; and how local station decisions, platform bans, and viral clips are reshaping who gets to speak — and who gets silenced. No punches pulled, plenty of context, and the kind of media criticism that asks whether we're defending free speech or amplifying grievance.

After Disney and ABC felt the economic pressure and changed course, agreeing to put Jimmy Kimmel back on air, Sinclair and Nexstar stepped in and said they would not allow their ABC affiliate stations to air Kimmel's show.As the BBC reported, Nexstar and Sinclair, which together run dozens of stations affiliated to ABC, said they would continue to replace the (Kimmel) show with regular programming Tuesday. But the people who believe in the free speech protection of the First Amendment can use their economic power to impact this decision.If people tune in to their local ABC station at 11:30 pm, and see that the station is NOT airing the show, then make a note of all the advertisers running commercials on the replacement show and don't support them..Conversely, if you see your local ABC affiliate IS airing Kimmel, make a note of the advertisers running commercials on during Kimmel and SUPPORT those advertisers and products. This is how we can wield our economic power in support of free speech and against a lawless Trump regime.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Jimmy Kimmel returns to late-night less than a week after ABC suspended his show following his comments on the killing of Charlie Kirk. But two of the largest station ownership groups, Sinclair and Nexstar, say they won’t carry the program on their ABC affiliates. Kimmel’s suspension sparked protests and concerns about free speech. Geoff Bennett discussed more with Dylan Byers of Puck. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, WREC's Ben Ferguson fills in for Mark. No, President Trump didn't act like a dictator and get late-night hosts Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel fired or canceled. Colbert's show was axed due to financial losses of $40 million annually, low ratings, and audience alienation from anti-conservative bias, with CBS executives confirming the decision was made months earlier and unrelated to Trump or regulatory approvals.  Similarly, Kimmel's suspension stemmed from money-losing operations, a drastic drop in viewership and affiliates like Nexstar and Sinclair refusing to air the show after Kimmel spread lies about Charlie Kirk's killer being MAGA-linked, despite evidence showing the assassin was a leftist. Also, government shouldn't be limiting free speech, particularly those seeking to silence critics via the FCC, as this could backfire severely. Declining mainstream media influence, bolstered by social media and figures like Elon Musk, allows bypassing echo chambers; tolerating opposing views preserves a free country. Later, Trump's announced that his administration is negotiating to reclaim Bagram Air Base from the Taliban because of its national security importance due to its location just an hour from China's nuclear weapons production sites. The Biden administration's Afghanistan withdrawal was chaotic, they abandoned the massive, strategically vital base, allowing China to occupy it. This would be a key achievement in protecting American interests against terrorists and adversaries like China. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
