President Joe Biden’s Justice Department prosecuted and jailed a meme-maker for making a similar joke that comedian Jimmy Kimmel made during his show on Wednesday night — with less than a week left until the 2024 general election on November 5. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ Kimmel, who is openly opposed to former President Donald Trump, suggested on live, broadcast television that Trump voters should wait to vote until Thursday or Friday — two days after the election.

Do your voting on Thursday or maybe Friday." pic.twitter.com/Il1Ch6S0eE — Tom Elliott (@tomselliott) October 31, 2024 “I don’t know if you guys know about this, but we have an election coming up on — I feel pretty relaxed about it and I’ve really been enjoying the week,” Kimmel began from his southern California studio. “In times like this, it is important to remember that cannabis is legal in our state.” “You have to vote,” he continued. “You can vote early. If you can’t vote early, vote on time. If you want to vote for Trump, vote late, vote very late. Do your voting on Thursday, maybe Friday. This will be my third time voting against Donald Trump — fifth, if you count the two times he was nominated for an Emmy for a reality show host.” Kimmel went on to cite a CNN poll that said less than one-third of American voters believed Trump would concede if he were to lose the 2024 election. “What would give them that idea? Of course he won’t concede,” Kimmel said. But as critics quickly noted, Kimmel’s joke mirrored a meme posted by Douglass Mackey ahead of the 2016 election. That meme, sent out to his 58,000 Twitter followers, said that voters could “avoid the line” and vote from home if they would just “text ‘Hillary’ to 59925.” Mackey, who maintained that the meme was “a joke,” was convicted on election interference charges in March of 2023 and sentenced to seven months in prison. “The Biden Administration sent Douglass Mackey to prison for making this exact joke. I’m dead serious when I say if Trump wins he should have Jimmy Kimmel arrested and jailed. Force these scumbags to live by their own rules,” The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh posted in response.

Will Jimmy Kimmel enjoy the same?” When I made an election joke, the Deep State used it as a pretext to conduct a fishing expedition against me, subpoenaing all financial records, leases, employment information and pay stubs, and email accounts.

Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke walked off the stage during a recent performance after being yelled at by a pro-Palestinian heckler in the audience. The incident occurred on Wednesday night during a solo show in Melbourne, Australia. A video circulating on social media captured the moments after a concert attendee yelled at Yorke as he performed at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl.  “Don’t stand there like a coward,come here and say it!” Radiohead’s Thom Yorke responded to an anti-Israel hackler who kept yelling about Gaza throughout his show in Melbourne today. Yorke left the stage and came back after the crowd kicked out the protester. pic.twitter.com/a5yhtBWpTo — Hen Mazzig (@HenMazzig) October 30, 2024 “Do you condemn the Israeli genocide of Gaza?” the heckler shouted, per NBC News. “Come up here and say that. Right here. Come on. Come up on the f***ing stage and say what you want to say,” Yorke can be heard saying in reply. “Don’t stand there like a coward. Come here and say it,” the singer continued. “Come on. You want to piss on everybody’s night? Come on.”  Yorke concluded, “OK, you do. See you later, then.”  MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ Yorke then left the stage but returned later and performed “Karma Police,” according to social media users. Radiohead has been targeted for its decision to perform in Tel Aviv in the past. In 2017, a group called Radiohead Fans for Palestine wrote several open letters urging Yorke and his band to cancel their scheduled appearances. Former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters and British film director Ken Loach led the effort to have Radiohead reconsider the show, per CNN. The 56-year-old singer responded at the time, saying, “Playing in a country is not the same as endorsing its government.”  “We’ve played in Israel for over 20 years through a succession of governments, some more liberal than others. As we have in America. We don’t endorse Netanyahu any more than Trump, but we still play in America,” he wrote in a conversation with Loach on X at the time.  “Music, art and academia is about crossing borders not building them, about open minds, not closed ones, about shared humanity, dialogue and freedom of expression. I hope that makes it clear, Ken.”
