Trump's previously hidden post sparks suspicions of coordinated attempt to suppress Jimmy Kimmel
Conservative activist Charlie Kirk was tragically shot and killed while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10. The nation was left in shock, and the incident has since sparked a wave of reactions and speculations.
Among those who commented on the situation was former President Donald Trump. In a recent interview, Trump was asked about his reaction to Kirk's death, but instead, he shifted the conversation towards renovations at his Washington, D.C. residence.
Meanwhile, the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the nation's largest ABC affiliate group Sinclair's late-night talk show, has been a hot topic of discussion. The decision to indefinitely suspend the broadcasting of the show was made by the network following indecent remarks Kimmel made about Kirk's death.
Kimmel mocked Trump's reaction to Kirk's death on the latest episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, comparing it to a four-year-old mourning a goldfish. Trump, however, appeared to relish in the news of Kimmel's show suspension and mocked the comedian on Truth Social, but gave no indication he had any involvement.
Some social media users have claimed that Trump's public denouncement of Kimmel might be suspicious, given the recent suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live!. One Twitter user pointed out that Kimmel had shared a post by Trump predicting his cancellation, and then was suspended. Another user joked about the situation, implying that free speech doesn't mean saying things people don't like.
California Governor Gavin Newsom posted on social media that the suspension might be a coordinated effort to silence critics and free speech. However, some argue that Kimmel's suspension had nothing to do with Trump and was a decision made by the company regarding the comedian's comments.
UNILAD has contacted the White House for comment on the situation, but as of now, no official statement has been made. It remains to be seen how this controversy will unfold, but one thing is certain: the incident has ignited a heated debate about free speech, political tensions, and the role of media in society.
