Great and frightening projection...but totally on spot. Inshallah....we hang on and all of us follow the INTELLGENCE offered here.. laughter is the BEST MEDICINE...even in "poly ticks" and we must hang on for dear life to keep humor as a part of our life styles...

When we make MONEY, wealth, or materialism our " god" we are weakened beyond hope. It was a TRUE "Christian advice from Jesus to DROP all your "wealth" and your material attachments, and follow me"..This does not have to be religious but all the people who are trying to enslave ALL of us

are people who worship nothing but money, power and greed. This is a great time to reflect on our own culpabilities and overcome them...it won't be easy. Too many of us have bought into this mad crazy world of HAVING..That's where they get us and it's made us weak.

I any case be AWARE..be very afraid..but also be BRAVE because our kids and grandchildren will rue the day if we don't overcome this evil.. Do what you can..pay attention...check out all references...don't just listen to your friends and families..QUEST FOR TRUTH!!

Thank you RICK for such a HEARTFELT and TRUTHFUL ADVICE and Information!!

Rick, you are the voice of reason and wisdom we now need so badly! I have watched Kimmel’s so called “offensive remarks.” He was not telling a joke. He was using *satire* (a valuable component of a healthy democracy) to point out Trump’s false grief over his “friend.” Jokes are meant to draw laughs. Satire is usually meant to expose the foibles of the ruling class with a 😏.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm beginning to hanker for some Antifa supersoldiers with particle beam weapons right about now. C'mon Soros, stop playing the ponies for a minute ;)

Jimmy is coming back, It was a bad business move. They lost 3 or 4 billion. Keep up the boycott. Brendan Carr was a author of Project 2025. He is just another one of the mobsters. Using his subtle threats. They only want to dictate what you say or see. The administration will allow anything that is beneficial to the MAGA agenda. I noticed that CNN, FOX and MSNBC carried the entire five hour White Supremacist , Christian Nationalistic hate rally using the late Charlie Kirk's terrible demise. They will exploit you alive or dead.

News flash, Jimmy Kimmel was just hired back. Disney had a come to Jesus moment after they realized that they should have learned something from Ron DeSantis. More to the certainty is Disney started looking at the Billions, Billions with a B they lost from a certain and steamrolling financial revolt. The only thing fascists understand is a big wallet slapping them around a little. Trump might let his criminal buddies commit crimes and get away with them but he will never give them a dime or let them fold towels at the Mar-a-Lago pool.

That was Breaking News!

Jimmy and ABC were in negotiations over the weekend and he probably made it clear that he was suing FCC Chair Carr and Sinclair and ABC and he'd probably win. Even Justice Alito in an unassociated case just a year ago said the government regulatory agencies were prohibited from exercising censorship over broadcast and published news sources.

If this went to SCOTUS it would have been a 9-0 ruling

or 8-1 because Uncle Thomas would show again he's a complete sellout.

Can't place any faith in anything Alito said. Same with Ted Cruz pushing back against this.

If/when it gets to the Court of Clarence he'll cave, and Cruz will be there to support their decision

>"They opened the box, they opened the window, they opened this Pandora's Box..."

Exactly this. If by God's good graces and a powerful rebuke of Trumpism and fascism in 2026 and 2028 and the Dems take control again, they need to give the Republicans and Red States a taste of their own medicine. And when they cry and whine like little bitches, the Democratic President says two words: Trump's Rules.

Trump set the bar. Trump set the precedent. Trump made the rules.

The Dems are just playing by the rules Trump made.

This just in from Sinclair: "Beginning Tuesday night Sinclair will be preempting 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' across our ABC affiliate stations and replacing it with news programming. Discussions with ABC are ongoing as we evaluate the show's potential return."

Wait until those Sinclair Christofascists see what the ad revenue is going to be with the "news programming" replacing Kimmel. They will be will be back just like Disney.

I don't think I've ever felt more discouraged.

Every. Single. Day. It. Gets. Worse.

I'll continue to volunteer, do my part beyond blabbing on social media's echo chambers

But man ... this Kirk Nuremburg Rally. WTF.

Kennedy is going to eleven.

For now, the Germany 1930s metaphors are apt. Until it's Berlin, May 1945.

I want to cry

And what are our DC leaders doing? Jefferies voted in favor of some bullshit Kirk resolution. Schumer is on perma-mute. There are some who inspire me like Jasmine and Newsom, but mostly the party has lost its grip on the country. Homan took a literal bag of cash and there's no investigation. Any day, Comey, Hillary, Letitia and others will be indicted on bullshit charges.

And there's ABSOLUTELY a plan in place to steal the mid terms and '28

This feels like a football team being down 45-7 in the 4th quarter. "But we're gonna kick a field goal here".

Aside from shooting your mouth off here, which absolutely accomplishes nothing, what are you actually doing?

Jimmy's back after Rick did the podcast but my gods he's back quickly. This is a major humiliation to MAGA who thought they got another scalp and a testament to the solid fact that mocking or being critical of Charlie Kirk is not tantamount to wishing for his murder. You know, Antifa is not a national organization but various local groups calling themselves Antifa _were_ a presence at BLM rallies five years ago. There's no equivalent on the left of violent trans rights vigilantes.

This kid isn't a Zizian, he's not in a cult, had no accomplices, the surface motive of lovesick concern for his trans roommate seems maybe a tad overblown to justify murder, but we'll see what comes out of the under-oath testimony from these two tragic lovers.

My (least) favorite headline:

"DOJ HAVING TROUBLE TYING ROBINSON TO LEFT WING"

This is worse than it seems. There's no legit investigation. It's full speed ahead on finding a political link that doesn't exist.

Here's Law & Crime Network: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HM-nX11MuYY

The investigation is trying to see if Robinson operated in a network or if anyone had foreknowledge of the assassination. They're having problems linking Robinson to an organization because they don't know where to look -- there are no anti-straight, anti-cis trans rights terrorist networks. The closest we ever came are the Zizians, but they were a bizarre transhumanist personality cult and their murders weren't motivated by trans ideology. JK Rowling, the TERF poster girl, has kicked up quite a fury in Britain with her outspoken gender criticality and opposition to trans ideology but you'll notice the UK tabloids aren't obsessing over assassination plots ;)

And even if you could license taking him out for the consequences of his politics and social views, what about the consequences of that? Yeah, there are all kinds of shit talkers in chatrooms, but who could ever posit an argument that murdering Charlie Kirk would lead to a better world for trans people? To tweeze this into a sensible ideology you'd have to be some flavor of accelerationist and yearn for the ensuing conflict. But between whom? Trans issues don't divide the hard right. Israel does. Epstein does. There _is_ no squish wing of MAGA who tolerate LGBTQ+ issues anymore.

Something smells profoundly strange about all of this ...

The 🍊🌮 and his minions continue to manufacture motives and “left wing” organizations behind each mass shooting or assassination in the US. The political spectacle of the Kirk “memorial” was a perfect opportunity for them to foment more civil unrest, distrust of one’s neighbor, and fear among Americans. Thank God for Rick Wilson - A voice of wisdom AND toughness. “To my Democratic friends: don’t be bought.” Amen to that.

It's not flying, though. Kimmel's back on the air quicker than anyone (hello, Keith Olbermann ;) predicted. The idea that anyone who laughed at Charlie Kirk's face for being smaller than his head or who snickered at the Charlie Kirk masterdebation contest in South Park is somehow morally complicit in his murder has been effectively put to bed. America's institutions may be under great stress and crumbling, but we still have a very vibrant civil society and mockery of the powerful makes money. Trump simply cannot stop it.
