an anonymous U.N. official said the escalator in question was actually stopped prematurely by someone from Trump’s group, who ran ahead of the group and accidentally triggered a stop mechanism. The official added that the teleprompter that Trump was so upset about was also being operated by his White House.
It was an inside job all along!
If you read his quote above there is no lie in that line. The right have been trying to distance themselves from the shooter and have been using it to score political points as either of the party does with a situation they can use. (Although this administration is actively spreading disinformation)
So to clarify… Jimmy Kimmel did not even mention Charlie Kirk in this monologue more than as a reference to the killer.
he literally said
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.
To classify this as “removed over comments about Charlie Kirk” is insane! He was talking about his killer and the reason he was removed was clarified by the FCC chair.
[This] appears to be an action by Jimmy Kimmel to play into the narrative that this was somehow a MAGA or Republican-motivated person” - Brendan Carr
Yet all the headlines read “for comments about Charlie Kirk”!
Should all be saying “Removed for commenting on MAGAs actions following this shooting”
