I Didn't Say It ...

Jimmy Kimmel, on his show once Disney caved to a boycott and allowed him to return to TV:

“In an attempt to silence its critics, our government has resorted to threatening the livelihoods of journalists, talk show hosts, artists, creatives, and entertainers across the board. Our leader celebrates people losing their livelihoods because he can’t take a joke. This runs counter to the values our nation was built upon, and our Constitution guarantees. A government threat to silence a comedian the president doesn’t like is anti-American … our government cannot be allowed to control what we do and do not say on television. [But] he tried his best to cancel me. Instead he forced millions of people to watch the show. That backfired bigly. He might have to release the Epstein files to distract us from this now."

Jimmy Kimmel, taking zero prisoners and giving zero fucks.

Resist. Stand up. Speak up. Protest. Boycott.

Joy Reid, on JD Couchfucker getting into Yale because of DEI:

“JD Vance got into Yale because they were tired of white men from New York … from all the elite schools. They wanted an Appalachian white. That’s how that man got into Yale, I promise you … That’s also Affirmative Action and DEI policies.”

She ain’t wrong … and the CouchFucker knows it.

Tiffany Haddish, comedian and actor, taking down The Felon on Jimmy Kimmel Live! a few weeks back:

"I, Tiffany Sarah Cornelia Haddish am running for President of the United States of America. That is right. I've got all the qualifications to be president … I'm rich. I've been arrested a few times and I always say crazy shit. And I have a vision for this country that will blow your mind … My fellow Americans, when I'm president all profiles on dating sites must include your credit score. If you can't handle your business you ain't touching my business. Under a Haddish presidency, every Subway sandwich shop will now carry pastrami sandwiches dammit! Just the way the Founding Fathers wanted it to be. They intended it that way. I will issue an executive order allowing people to pay their taxes with old gift cards. We're gonna run this country, this government, like a company and that company is Sizzler. You can use your old coupons. I also will make it a crime to show up on time to a dinner party. Who in the hell is walking into my house at 6 o'clock for a 6 o'clock dinner. White people, that's who. I'm moving the capital from Washington, D.C. to Hankinson, North Dakota. Don't worry, I've been to Hankinson before, there are buffalos everywhere. Best buffalo pastrami sandwiches you ever had. Instead of elevator small talk, let's do elevator big talk. Quick: tell me about your divorce before the doors open! And finally, I'm getting rid of those little robots that deliver food. In my America, robots will only be used for sex stuff. No more STDs y'all! And my campaign is built around a very simple idea. America: mind your own damn business. Doesn't that sound nice? Doesn't that sound good? Yeah. If you want to join my movement post on social media with the hashtag #WeMindOurOwnDamnBusiness. We’ve had an actor as president, a reality host president, but now it’s time to elect a comedian. Finally, a president who’s funny on purpose, most of the time. Who's with me?"

I’m not sure Haddish is Presidential but I really like the We Mind Our Own Damn Business label!

Hunter Doohan, Wednesday actor, opening up about feeling like he had to “hide” his sexual orientation early on in his career.

“It was the first time I’d done a network test [for the Showtime drama Your Honor] and they were really scrutinizing [so] I hid pictures of [my partner and I] on my Instagram, archived them. [I remember] I was at lunch one time with Bryan [Cranston, his costar] and I said, ‘Grace called again,’ and I was like, ‘Oh, she’s my friend Grace.’ And he’s like, ‘Oh, just a friend?’ and I thought, ‘Oh God… I’ve been out for eight years and I have to come out of the closet again.’ That was so unsettling and awful. I was like, ‘I’m never going to do that for a role again.'  ... [And now] I’m so lucky to be living in a time where that doesn’t feel as much of a limitation ... I would love to play a queer character, not for the sake of it being queer ... I’ve auditioned for a bunch but haven’t gotten cast as them. But that’ll come and I’ll find a great script. I’m just grateful for the queer actors before me and just queer people in general who have paved the way for me to be able to have this privilege of being able to play these characters.”

Doohan married his partner Fielder Jewett in 2022, just after Wednesday dropped on Netflix; and the ceremony was officiated by his Your Honor co-star Bryan Cranston.

Jon Stewart, The Daily Show, demanding that we fight the Fascist:

“I just want to say this to [Cankles] defenders. You don’t have to bend over backwards trying to make [his] authoritarian power grabs seem like the rule of law. He does not give a fuck anymore. He’s saying it straight up. [He’s] saying the people like dictators. [He] is saying I hate my opponents and I want them punished. And [Cankles] is saying I’ll use all the levers of government at my disposal to accomplish that goal. So you can get on board with that and say I’m with that or you can join the rest of us and fight like hell for this constitutional republic.”

Again, the comedians are leading the charge; we haven’t gotten a lot of politicians to stand up, and we certainly cannot rely on the media, so We The People need to fight and yell and scream and boycott and march.
