Thanks for the opinion piece, “Robert B. Reich: Trump’s war on late-night comedy could be his undoing “, 9/24/25 Hartford Courant.
If our president can’t laugh at himself then he shouldn’t be in office. Late night comedy has a sacred place in the USA and we love our comedy just like we love our freedom of speech.
In Jimmy Kimmel’s words: What the late-night host said upon his return from suspension
That’s why freedom of speech is the First Amendment. The very first. A boycott of ABC and Disney sent a strong message about how America can agree that freedom of speech is an essential part of our constitutional rights.
And we just about all agree with that right whether you’re liberal or conservative. Thank God, Jimmy Kimmel is back.
And that’s no joke.
