00:00Obama slams Trump administration over Kimmel's suspension

00:04Former President Barack Obama slammed President Donald Trump's administration following Jimmy

00:09Kimmel's suspension.

00:10After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to

00:15a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies

00:21unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators.

00:24It doesn't like, Obama wrote on X.

00:27He added a link to an article calling out Kimmel's suspension as Trump's most brazen

00:31attack on free speech yet.

00:34On September 15, Kimmel spoke about Charlie Kirk, criticizing efforts to distance the crime

00:39from the MAGA gang.

00:40We hit some new lows, he stated.

00:43As OK reported, Kirk was speaking at a campus event at Utah Valley University on September

00:4810, as part of his American Comeback Tour.

00:51He invited students to debate his views.

00:53After a question on transgender mass shooters, Kirk was shot and killed.

00:57Tyler Robinson was arrested, having diverged from his conservative parents' beliefs and

01:02dated a transitioning man.

01:04Brendan Carr, Trump's FCC appointee, responded to Kimmel's comments, hinting at regulatory

01:10actions.

01:11We can do this the easy way or the hard way, he stated, suggesting companies take action

01:16against Kimmel.

01:18Subsequently, ABC indefinitely paused his show, escalating concerns over media freedom.

01:23After the ordeal, a source claimed Kimmel wants to cut ties with ABC forever.

01:29This is the last straw, they said, revealing Jimmy's anger over the suspension and his desire

01:33to exit his contract.

01:35The insider noted Kimmel and Stephen Colbert seek collaboration to oppose Trump's administration,

01:40fueling Jimmy's drive to speak candidly and remain true to himself.
