Ty Cobb, a former attorney for the White House under President Donald Trump‘s administration, has drawn a comparison between the suspension of comedian Jimmy Kimmel and the tactics employed by the Nazis.
Cobb sees a similarity between ABC’s suspension of Kimmel and the Nazis’ strategy of removing comedians from German airwaves back in 1939. The suspension was a result of threats made by Brendan Carr, the Federal Communications Commission’s chair, towards Kimmel and ABC, following remarks made by the comedian about Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin.
