Pekka Toveri took a stand on the Trump administration in X. PETE ANIKARI
President of the United States Donald Trump drifted the talk show host recently Jimmy Kimmel with. Kimmel parodied the White House gala dinner on his show last Thursday, and it was too much for Trump. He demanded that the TV star be fired, and also Melania-wife demanded on her X account that the ABC channel take action against Kimmel.
News agency Reuters reported this week that the FCC plans to put Disney-owned ABC’s license under review. According to the source, the matter is not directly related to Trump’s war of words with Kimmel. Trump has previously pressured the FCC, an independent federal agency, to revoke the licenses of ABC and NBC channels.
Now MEP Pekka Toveri (col.) roars in the messaging service X to the Jimmy Kimmel ruckus.
– Only in dictatorships is it forbidden to criticize and criticize the political leadership. The Trump administration apparently no longer sees the United States as a democracy, writes Toveri on his X account.
His comment is a response to the head of the FCC By Brendan Carr to the video. In the interview video, Carr tells To Katie Millerthat business licenses may be revoked. Carr has previously criticized Disney’s diversity and equality practices and issued a warning to the company.
Trump in a war of words with Kimmel
In the parody that caused an uproar, Kimmel described Melania Trump as glowing like a “waiting widow.” On Saturday, a video clip started circulating again when an armed man stormed into a celebratory dinner on Saturday and shot a security guard. Donald Trump considered Kimmel to have “incited violence”.
Jimmy Kimmel and Donald Trump have been in the middle of a war of words before. Last September, Jimmy Kimmel Live was shelved when Kimmel took a shot at a right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk’s comments on the broadcast about death. Trump gloated about the cancellation of Kimmel’s show on his Truth Social service. When the return of the program was announced a few days later, Trump reacted with dismay and hinted at taking the television company ABC to court.
