Hey friends. A few years ago I posted this party trick video which no one saw. It's a really cool trick that seems like magic but it's actually physics. It can be done with things you probably already have around your house. Take a gander if you like and wow you friends!

From here on out, I will be referring to Speaker Johnson as Trump’s Little Johnson. 😏

Bingo! And yes they did look a little different.

Who knows that The Simpsons was originally a spin-off? And who can name the original, and mostly forgotten, show that it was spun-off from? Hint: It was a very creative, funny show that included some of the actors who voice The Simpsons.

Immigrants going through the citizenship process already take English and civics tests. It's already a thing.

And there are lots of people willing to accept you, just the way you are, if you’re willing to choose love over hate.

Some say that the path to U.S. inequality and authoritarianism started with Reagan and his dismantling of the unions, etc. Some say it was Nixon and his Southern Strategy. But really, it goes back to the demise of Reconstruction and not punishing the slave states appropriately, IMO.

I bet it was the pharmacist that didn't want to give you the vaccine. I would lodge a complaint with Publix and go somewhere else.

It's a delicious, gooey, cinnamon, pull-apart bread.

We’re protesting outside the Broadview ICE facility and an agent came out to tell us to go away.

We said we’re exercising our First Amendment rights so he shot the ground with pepper balls and said, “Your First Amendment rights are on the sidewalk.”

I'll be doing this, as well as canceling Disney+ and Hulu.

Of every idiot who enabled this to happen, Mitch is at the top of the list. No one did more to get us to this point than him.

This is what it looks like when ICE violates our First Amendment rights.

Jimmy Kimmel, not backing down. Good for him.

Disney Prime Video + @disneyprimevideo.bsky.social · 23d

On behalf of @jimmykimmel.com

Thank you, Jimmy.

I want to take a moment to sincerely apologize for my insensitive words on the air this week, at a time when the tension in this country is so high. Specifically, when I said, and I quote, “If I see a Black pilot, I'm going to be like, 'Boy, I hope he's qualified.'"

Sometimes we can get carried away in the heat of a joke, but I realize now that saying “Prowling Blacks go around for fun to go target white people” was, well, probably a little over the top. For that, I’m sorry.

I also regret calling saying “The great replacement strategy, which is well under way every single day in our southern border, is a strategy to replace white rural America with something different.” because after thinking about it, I did give Guillermo a job I could have given to a more deserving person, such as Brendan Schaub or Tom MacDonald.

Once again, I apologize for all of the comments I made, which also include “Islam is the sword the left is using to slit the throat of America.”, “Reject feminism. Submit to your husband.”, and “We need to have a Nuremberg-style trial for every gender-affirming clinic doctor.” Anyone who would say such a thing has no place on a network owned by Disney.I will take this time away to figure out how to be funny without ruffling too many feathers. I am also making a monetary donation to Turning Point USA so that they may continue their Charlie Kirk’s work towards a kinder and gentler society.

Sincerely,
Jimmy KimmelPS. Please respond in the comments without reading the bio.

Listening to the voters and then acting on that, is the way forward for the Democratic party. Currently, Dems are sinking into irrevelance, oblivious to what voters really want. If they don't start listening and acting on what they hear, this country is doomed to autocracy.

SarahInMaryland 🇺🇸🇨🇦 @sarahinmaryland.bsky.social · 23d

Establishment Dems need to stop listening to their billionaire and corporate funders. And they need to stop telling voters what they think they need. Don't tell us what we need. Listen to us tell you what we need. And then act, to make all Americans' lives better.

Americans overwhelmingly want access to healthcare, jobs with decent pay, and a good education that doesn't cost a fortune. They want to feel like they and their kids have a future. Today, too many Americans are completely locked out of a comfortable life where every day isn't a constant struggle.

This video is long but well worth the watch. By really listening to Trump voters in deep red West Virginia, Bernie was able to excite them with his ideas for our country.

I truly believe that Bernie Sanders, AOC, & Zohran Mamdani are the future of the Democratic party. 🧵

They are following the 1930s Nazi playbook, step by step. It's as close to history repeating itself as history is able to repeat itself.

It definitely shouldn't be so complicated. It sounds like they may have a limited supply. Call other pharmacies. You might luck out. Good luck!

SarahInMaryland 🇺🇸🇨🇦 @sarahinmaryland.bsky.social · 25d

I sure hope it shows up in Atlanta soon. Haven't heard from anyone else in Georgia about whether they had success. Based on some of the replies, it sounds like in some states, it depends on the pharmacy, or perhaps the pharmacist. Available in some areas and not in others in the same state.
