Jimmy Kimmel Cancelled, FCC Chair Urged To Quit Over MAGA Meltdown
On September 18, 2025, ABC yanked Jimmy Kimmel Live 'indefinitely' after Kimmel decried the 'MAGA gang' defending Charlie Kirk's assassin. Brendan Carr, FCC chairman and official buzzkill, declared 'it's long past time' to cancel Kimmel and dangled fines and license revocations like a neo-tyranny piñata. In a congressional soap opera, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, sidekicks Katherine Clark, Pete Aguilar, Ted Lieu, Joe Neguse, and Suzan DelBene teamed up stiffly demanding Carr's resignation for 'bullying ABC' into submission, a gesture that makes FCC chair look more like FCC chair-man-on-his-last-nerves.

(1 of 3)FCC boss Brendan Carr flexed so hard he crushed Jimmy Kimmel's show into unpaid suspension, igniting a congressional drama squeezed tighter than a MAGA hat on a melon. Democracy meets clown world, starring insults, subpoenas, and chairs being called out.
When your puppetmaster FCC chair goes full Darth Vader on a late night host, expect Congress to wield subpoenas like light sabers and call for resignation faster than you can say 'First Amendment.'
Only in 2025 can one guy at FCC bully ABC so hard it turns Jimmy Kimmel into TV's newest shadow scary story. Spoiler: House Dems aren't throwing popcorn, they're throwing subpoenas.
