‘This is a very, very serious issue right now for Disney. We can do this the easy way or the hard way’

The chairman of the Federal Communications Commission is threatening to take action against ABC over on-air claims made by comedian Jimmy Kimmel about the man suspected of assassinating Charlie Kirk last week.

Kimmel said in his monologue Monday, “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 suspect, Tyler Robinson, however, is reported by family members to have moved to the left politically in recent months, and Utah officials released texts to his transgender roommate in which he offers the reason he shot and killed the popular activist who clearly was in the MAGA camp.

“I had enough of [Kirk’s] hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out,” Robinson said.
