“I’m no fan of Jimmy Kimmel…. But if it turns out to be true that he was fired because the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) put pressure on ABC to take him off the air, that should cause all honest, limited-government conservatives to pause.” - MinistryWatch

NewFair number of other issues, too

There is at least a plausible argument that Kimmel's (now undone) firing had a bit to do with government, and then you've got the kerfuffle where Trump is seeking to remove prosecutors who don't prosecute Trump's persecutors. More or less, Trump is building on a weaponized DOJ by turning it against his tormentors in the same way Biden turned the DOJ on him--except far more obviously.

It all has to do with an egocentric mind and an overall unwillingness to wait for ordinary processes to work--and in the end, I'm seeing more and more cases where it's pretty obvious that the result is that things are even more glacial. Trump seriously needs to review Articles 1, 2, and 3 of the Constitution and apply them.

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
