Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show has been extended for one more year, according to a statement from the ABC television network.

The show was taken off the air in September after Kimmel implied that the suspect in the assassination of Charlie Kirk had been a member of the pro-Trump MAGA movement. The show was returned to broadcast after about six days.

‘Why do the TV Syndicates put up with it? Also, totally biased coverage. Get the bum off the air!!!’

On Monday, Variety reported that sources confirmed the contract deal would keep Kimmel on as the host of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” until at least 2027.

Many took the decision as a defiant statement against the wishes of President Donald Trump.

“These days, it’s notable whenever a major media company ignores Trump’s pressure and stands with talent. So let’s note that Disney has renewed Jimmy Kimmel’s contract for another year,” CNN media analyst Brian Stelter said.

Kimmel appeared to reference the president in a post confirming the deal on Instagram.

“I am pleased to announce another no-talent year!” he wrote, using an insult Trump had used against him and his show.

Stelter went on to claim that Disney, the parent company of ABC, caved to pressure from some viewers who canceled their Disney Plus accounts to protest Kimmel’s cancellation.

“It was clear that Kimmel was the big winner of that episode,” he added. “He gained more power and leverage from the outrageous episode of government censorship.”

Kimmel has been hosting the show since January of 2003.

He has used the entertainment platform to bash Trump, his policies, and his supporters. The president has responded by issuing fiery insults on social media.

“Why does ABC Fake News keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with NO TALENT and VERY POOR TELEVISION RATINGS, on the air?” the president wrote in November. “Why do the TV Syndicates put up with it? Also, totally biased coverage. Get the bum off the air!!!”

Almost five years after the pipe bombs were found on January 6, the alleged pipe bomber has been caught.

“We’re learning a lot more, a lot more,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales comments. “And the more we learn, the more it stinks.”

The suspect is 30-year-old Brian Cole Jr., who lived in Woodbridge, Virginia, with his mother — and is described as a loner who had anarchist leanings and worked for his father’s bail-bond company.

“This isn’t just any bail-bonds company, OK? This is a company that has worked to free illegal immigrants from ICE facilities. So, this is a bail-bonds company with an agenda. And it happens to be a radical, liberal, leftist agenda because we also find out the family company also sued President Trump and DHS over illegal immigration and asked Biden — the Biden DOJ — to address racism,” Gonzales explains.

“They hired Black Lives Matter and George Floyd’s lawyer, Benjamin Crump, to address racism. … So, this family that this man worked for, family company, had a whole hell of a lot of social justice activism as it turns out,” she continues, joking, “I’m sure it’s nothing.”

And according to FBI Director Kash Patel, none of the evidence now coming to light is new. Rather, it was hidden.

“The prior administration sat on the evidence for four years. There wasn’t any production of new evidence from five years ago. Here’s what we did. We went out to the country, brought in our experts, and Deputy Director Bongino led the charge and said, ‘We are going to look at every single piece of evidence again,’” Patel said in a segment on Fox News.

“We looked at 3 million lines of evidence. We went back and looked at the cellphone tower data dumps. We went back and looked at the providers and what information they provided pursuant to search warrants at the time and asked questions such as, ‘Why weren’t all the phone numbers scrubbed, and why weren’t they connected, and why wasn’t there any geolocational data done?’ Now, that is either sheer incompetence or complete intentional negligence, and neither of which is acceptable for this FBI,” Patel added.

In a separate interview on Fox News, FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino lamented that he did not know “what the hell this prior leadership team was doing outside of targeting political opponents, weaponizing the FBI, destroying its reputation, embarrassing agents that are doing really good work out there.”

“It’s almost like they were intentionally trying to decimate faith in institutions. It’s horrifying,” he added.

“I do think that there were a lot of people in the Biden regime that were completely incompetent. But you cannot tell me that a whole group of investigators had all of the same evidence and somehow couldn’t get from point A to point Z,” Gonzales comments. “I just, I have a hard time believing that.”

A Tennessee man who responded with anger to new restrictions on food stamp benefits went viral on social media as the Trump administration clamps down on fraud.

The new restrictions will apply to able-bodied people between the ages of 18 and 65 years who aren’t disabled and refuse to work at least 20 hours per week. They also do not apply to those who have children under the age of 14 years in their home.

‘I’m devastated, actually. … It helped me a lot. It got me $292 a month.’

While the new rules won’t likely appear terribly onerous to the taxpayers who have to work to fund them, some of the beneficiaries are outraged.

“That’s some bullsh**t,” Nelson Scott said to WZTV-TV. “Man, I’m devastated, actually.”

Scott is 38 years old, doesn’t have kids or a job, doesn’t go to school, and is not disabled. But he’s upset that his SNAP food benefits are imperiled.

“It helped me a lot. It got me $292 a month,” Scott said.

The new restrictions are being put into place by the U.S. Department of Agriculture under the direction of President Donald Trump.

Scott argued that it was hard for him to find a job because he’s a felon.

“I would get one if y’all give me one. Y’all be felony-friendly and hire us,” he pleaded.

The video report garnered almost 200K views on social media, and many of the commenters were angry at Scott for trying to stay on food stamps while being able-bodied.

“AWWWWW! Poor baby has to go to work like the rest of us!!” one commenter said.

“That man is a great example of able-bodied. He needs to get a JOB,” another said.

“Get your lazy ass out of bed and get a job like the rest of us. I’m sick and tired of supporting these people. I started working when I was 12 years old. I’d work the fields with my Mexican best friend and his family every weekend for about $20 a day back in the mid 70s,” another user replied on the X platform.

There are other exclusions from the SNAP regulations going into place. People who are in a drug or alcohol treatment program can continue to get the benefits, as well as those who are pregnant or receive unemployment benefits.

The work requirement can also be fulfilled by participating in a work training program or doing volunteer work.
