If it weren’t for double standards, Democrats would have no standards at all! I find it pretty hilarious to watch all this handwringing from Democrats up in arms about the painfully-unfunny Jimmy Kimmel being taken off the air. IT’S A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY, they shout! FREE SPEECH! REEEEE! But where were all of these concerns when the Democrats were threatening Fox News and telling them they absolutely had to take Tucker Carlson off the air? Anyone remember this?   Remember when Chuck Schumer pressured Fox News to not allow Tucker Carlson’s show to air. I do. pic.twitter.com/aZatFh8f1m — Gunther Eagleman (@GuntherEagleman) September 19, 2025 TRANSCRIPT: These lies continue tonight. Rupert Murdoch, who has admitted they were lies and said he regretted it, has a special obligation to stop Tucker Carlson from going on tonight now that he’s seen how he has perverted and slimed the truth. And for letting him go on again and again and again. Not because their views deserve such opprobrium, but because our democracy depends on it.

Radicals are calling for Jews and Christians to be wiped out in the streets of London in a genocidal war cry. Mayor Sadiq Khan, who is mentoring Zohran Mamdani running for mayor of New York City, is allowing this to happen. In London this week, the protesters are screaming, Khaybar, Khaybar, ya Yehud — jaish […] The post Calls on London Streets for Jews & Christians to Be Wiped Out appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

“Not good riddance, but riddance.” That was late-night host Jimmy Kimmel’s reaction way back in 2017 to a question about pushing his right-leaning fans away with his progressive transformation. This transformation only grew more pronounced during Trump 2.0. It culminated in one of the ghastliest comments ever uttered by a late-night host: We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it. The public knew enough at that point to assume the killer targeted Kirk for his conservative views. More information came out the same day of Kimmel’s comments to seal the sad deal on the matter. His lie ricocheted around social media and podcasts while legacy media outlets looked the other way. Then, some ABC affiliates balked, sending Kimmel to the bench, perhaps for good. PG/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images It caps a tumultuous eight years for the ex-“Man Show” host, one whose rude and crude brand gave way to lectures, finger-wagging, and the occasional tear. We still don’t know all the details behind Kimmel’s benching. Sinclair, the company behind many ABC affiliates, pulled the show and demanded a full-throated apology from the far-Left Kimmel. Nexstar also axed the show, at least for now. ABC then followed suit. The decisions came after FCC chair Brendan Carr excoriated Kimmel’s comments on “The Benny Show” and suggested action may be required. Carr followed up on those opinions via CNBC. It was appearing to directly mislead the American public about a significant fact that probably one of the most significant political events we’ve had in a long time, for the most significant political assassination we’ve seen in a long time. Carr has a legal leg to stand on, given ABC uses the public airwaves, but it still bears a whiff of danger to our collective free speech. The government shouldn’t get involved in speech matters, by and large. And First Amendment purists should watch matters closely, something the ACLU once did before becoming regretfully woke. What’s obvious is how Kimmel abused his platform over the years, mocked others who got fired for sharing the “wrong” words, and embraced nuclear-grade hypocrisy. Remember Roseanne Barr? The cranky mind behind the ABC sitcom bearing her name lost her job in 2018 after sending out one racially-charged tweet targeting a member of the Obama administration, Valerie Jarrett. Barr swiftly apologized and said she didn’t know Jarrett was black. ABC, owned by Disney, fired her anyway. Kimmel’s response? He joked that the show should go on, but this time focusing on her character’s husband, Dan, played by John Goodman. He couldn’t defend her or suggest ABC shouldn’t fire an employee for one awful post. Never forget how Jimmy Kimmel misrepresented @therealroseanne joke tweet and pushed for the network to take her show away. pic.twitter.com/zok8WJN5nt — Timcast News (@TimcastNews) September 18, 2025 Credit: @TimcastNews/X.com Some free speech hero. That would be a pattern. When multiple social media platforms banned President Trump following the events of Jan. 6, Kimmel delighted in the news. He used his then-Twitter account to share a cartoon of Trump unsuccessfully trying to access the site, a single tear dropping on his smartphone. In 2021, Kimmel’s show shed announcer Dicky Barrett because the musician refused to take the COVID-19 vaccine, per ABC’s orders. Did Kimmel fight on his behalf? That remains unknown. He did not, however, fight for him in the public space, that’s for sure. Kimmel’s COVID-19 commentary could be callous, if not downright cruel. When worries surfaced about having enough hospital beds to treat sick Americans, Kimmel suggested those who didn’t take the vaccine should be shut out. That choice doesn’t seem so tough to me … Vaccinated person having a heart attack? Yes, come right on in. We’ll take care of you. Unvaccinated guy who gobbled horse goo? Rest in peace, wheezy. He also mocked ordinary Americans who protested the extreme lockdowns that threatened to shutter their homegrown businesses for good. Later, when Fox News showed Tucker Carlson the door in 2024, Kimmel danced on the conservative’s professional grave. Tucker couldn’t be reached for comment. He’s already on a plane to Moscow to meet with his manager. 2023. Jimmy Kimmel celebrates Tucker Carlson getting fired from Fox. pic.twitter.com/KkvVRc4At6 — MAZE (@mazemoore) September 18, 2025 Credit: @mazemoore/X.com Perhaps his most egregious act as a so-called comedian came when he hosted a fundraiser for then-President Joe Biden last year. That move shredded whatever remained of his fair-and-balanced pose, but he made things much worse after the fact. The fundraiser showed President Biden freezing up during the finale. Former President Barack Obama had to gently guide the addled leader off the stage. The moment was caught on video. We all saw it, and most already knew that Biden’s cognitive state was in question. What did Kimmel do after the fact? He seemingly lied to his audience, telling them they couldn’t trust their eyes. Kimmel isn’t just a partisan. He’s so hard-Left that he greeted President Trump’s re-election last year with the tears of a former clown. [The election] was a terrible night for women, for children, for the hundreds of thousands of hard-working immigrants who make this country go, for health care, for our climate, for science, for journalism, for justice, for free speech. A few months later, he made light of fellow progressives attacking Tesla dealerships over CEO Elon Musk’s political maneuvers. More recently, he joked that some of his show’s female staffers were crushing on Luigi Mangione, the man accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in cold blood. Ha ha ha. Even his infamous Kirk comments came before he mocked President Trump for mourning the wrong way over the younger man’s assassination. Just ghoulish. Not riddance, Jimmy. Good riddance. * * * Christian Toto is an award-winning journalist, movie critic and editor of HollywoodInToto.com. He previously served as associate editor with Breitbart News’ Big Hollywood.

Texas A&M President Mark Welsh is set to step down on Friday after a wave of criticism over his handling of a controversy that erupted after an English professor was filmed pushing pro-LGBT talking points during a children’s literature course and telling a student who opposed her to leave a lecture. Welsh, a retired four-star U.S. Air Force General who was appointed by former President Barack Obama to be Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force from 2012 to 2016, fired Dr. Melissa McCoul last week, but his actions were not enough to quell some of the outrage over Texas A&M’s handling of the situation. The university’s Board of Regents announced on Thursday that Welsh would resign, The New York Times reported. “President Welsh is a man of honor who has led Texas A&M with selfless dedication,” the university system’s chancellor, Glenn Hegar, said in a statement, adding, “At the same time, we agree that now is the right moment to make a change and to position Texas A&M for continued excellence in the years ahead.” Videos obtained and shared by Republican Texas State Rep. Brian Harrison and first reported by The Daily Wire on September 8 showed McCoul advocating for leftist views on sex and gender during a lecture over the summer. Slides from the course reviewed by The Daily Wire also showed that the class devoted considerable attention to sex, gender, and “queerness.” One student confronted the professor over the leftist ideology, pointing to the Trump administration’s recent actions to crack down on diversity, equity, and inclusion in the government and public universities. McCoul argued that her teachings on gender identity and gender expression were “biologically true,” adding that she did not believe that the student would be able to stop her from teaching those ideas. “Because I do have the legal and ethical authority [and] professional expertise in this classroom. It’s time for you to leave,” McCoul told the student in a video that Harrison posted on X. ?CAUGHT ON TAPE: TEXAS A&M STUDENT KICKED OUT OF CLASS AFTER OBJECTING TO TRANSGENDER INDOCTRINATION… and A&M President defends “LGBTQ Studies.” I’m referring @TAMU to the Trump Administration for investigation… and asking Gov @GregAbbott_TX to fire the A&M officials… pic.twitter.com/J6IWsfw62I — Brian Harrison (@brianeharrison) September 8, 2025 After the student complained about the LGBT themes in the children’s literature course, Welsh acknowledged that the class content “did not align with any reasonable expectation of standard curriculum for the course.” Welsh’s action to change the course content and fire McCoul, however, only came after an intense public pressure campaign, which was led by Harrison. In a phone call with the student after the complaint had been raised, the Texas A&M president said that the student was trying to “pick a fight” and defended teaching LGBT content in other courses as long as it was properly shown on course syllabi. Welsh’s move to fire McCoul wasn’t enough for some people, while the decision enraged others. “This is about trying to tell faculty members not to teach certain topics,” said Leonard Bright, a professor of public service and administration at Texas A&M, according to the Times. “The rules are clear — we are the experts in our classes, and we get to design our courses.” After McCoul was fired, Harrison told The Daily Wire, “President Welsh is engaged in a cover up and deserves no credit.” “He spent the past month protecting this professor, berating the student, dismissing concerns that her constitutional rights were violated when she was kicked out of class, attempting to gaslight the student into believing she was the problem, advocating for even more DEI and LGBTQ courses at A&M, and has been engaged in behavior since his actions were exposed,” Harrison added. “He should be fired.” The Republican state lawmaker celebrated in a post on Thursday after it was reported that Welsh was stepping down. “WE DID IT! TEXAS A&M PRESIDENT IS OUT!!” Harrison posted on X. “Another MASSIVE victory for the LIBERTY BOTS against the Austin Swamp Rats! As the first elected official to call for him to be fired, this news is welcome, although overdue. Now… END ALL DEI AND LGBTQ INDOCTRINATION IN TEXAS!!” Texas A&M will appoint an interim president as it conducts a national search for a new leader, according to the Board of Regents.

Charlie Kirk is not conservatives' George Floyd.
