I think Google fears Taco turning on them, too, given that the first four news items under the US tab on news.google.com are about Charlie Nazi Kirk:
Axios House Democrats fume about vote to honor Charlie Kirk: "We're being totally set up" 5 hours ago By Andrew Solender
The New York Times A Note, a Gun and a Mother’s Conscience Led to an Arrest in Kirk’s Killing Yesterday

It's been a fucking week, JFC, move on already. Most people didn't even know who this POS even was...
Way, way, way down....scrolling down many pages...are some stories about Epstein.
i thought he was pulled because the guy that Trump appointed to the FCC called up ABC and threatened them?
- Trump had Colbert cancelled and said Kimmel was next on Truth Social back in July: https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114874422468516376 The FCC chairmen threatened ABC: https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/brendan-carr-abc-fcc-jimmy-kimmel-charlie-kirk-1236522406/
  
  You got a screenshot so I don’t have to visit that god awful cesspool of a site? I mean honestly who reads Variety? /s
  But for real I’d prefer not to open that first link.
But… Kimmel didn’t make any Kirk comments, did he? I thought he only talked about the federal government’s reaction?
- the offensive comments:
  We had some new lows over the weekend, with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it,
  Kimmel source
  full monologue
  
  That's literally all he said? Are you fucking serious? He's losing the show, everyone is losing their minds, and he's being forced to donate to turning point USA over that!?
  
  And that’s not about Kirk. It’s all bullshit and being force fed to us.
