Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

ABC says “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” returns tonight—after a brief suspension over remarks tied to Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Disney calls the comments “ill-timed,” critics call the return predictable, and some big station groups still say “not so fast.” Turning Point USA is urging ABC affiliates to keep Kimmel off the air—while dropping a star-studded campus tour in Charlie’s honor.

Tonight’s rundown:

  • Kimmel’s comeback: Disney puts the show back on; Sinclair and other groups weigh preemption; free-speech vs. standards debate explodes.

  • TPUSA tour after Charlie Kirk: New Turning Point Tour lineup includes Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, Vivek Ramaswamy, Glenn Beck, Allie Beth Stuckey, Gov. Jeff Landry, Gov. Greg Gianforte, Sen. Mike Lee, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox, Jason Chaffetz, Alex Clark, Rob Schneider & more—hitting Minnesota, Virginia Tech, Utah State, Montana State, UND, Oklahoma, IU, LSU, Ole Miss, Auburn, UC Berkeley and others.

  • Starbucks firing: Ohio barista terminated after writing a slur about Charlie Kirk on a customer’s cup—company says it violated policies for a welcoming environment.

  • Domestic terror label: President Trump signs an order designating Antifa a “domestic terrorist organization,” directing agencies to investigate, disrupt, and prosecute terror-linked activity.

  • Security & law enforcement:

    • Man charged for allegedly pointing a laser at Marine One near the White House.

    • South Carolina “Move Over” blitz: ~2,400 tickets as officials push roadside safety after trooper strikes.

    • SC trooper fired, charged in a separate, tragic child-abuse case.

    • Health policy tease: From the Roosevelt Room, President Trump signals a major autism announcement and warns pregnant women against acetaminophen (Tylenol) use—citing studies that show associations. (HHS notes association ≠ causation; expect label and guidance debates.)

      TPUSA to ABC affiliates: “Don’t air Kimmel.”

      Spokesman Andrew Kolvet says Disney “caved,” while some affiliates argue Kimmel should apologize and make amends before any return. Critics call ABC’s pause a slap on the wrist; others oppose ‘cancellation’ over one monologue and want broader debate—with guests across the aisle.

      Listener corner:

      “It felt like a revival… for five hours we felt safe.”

      “Forgiveness on that stage changed hearts.”
