Mourners have been called out over their ‘disrespectful’ behaviour during the memorial of right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk. Mourners have been called out after piles of garbage were filmed lining the streets in the hours after Charlie Kirk’s memorial. Earlier this morning, tens of thousands of Americans paid their respects to the 31-year-old conservative activist at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Footage of the aftermath shows fast food wrappers, abandoned camping chairs, bottles, American flags and other belongings left on the street where supporters lined up in anticipation of the event.... What a bunch of grubs. ID: 2151715 · Reply Quote

Young people are a bit too individualistic, self-centered, selfish... and don't notice (or don't care?) when they're littering the environment, the countryside, or their cities. They have sufficient money not to spend the time to neatly pack up all their stuff; but to discard it and buy new stuff for the next event. It's the same here. This looks like the usual remnants of a large open-air concert weekend in Germany. Folding seats, cheap disposable tents, sleeping bags and mats, disposable grills... garbage bags, bottles, beer crates... ID: 2151726 · Reply Quote

Meanwhile: CENSORED! Jimmy Kimmel show to return after suspension over Charlie Kirk comments wrote: ... "We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday," Disney said. The comic's abrupt suspension came after threats by the federal TV regulator to revoke ABC's broadcast licence, sparking nationwide debates over free speech. US President Donald Trump had welcomed Kimmel's suspension and suggested that some TV networks should have their licences "taken away" for negative coverage of the president... That is still censored... All in the ~~USA~~ MAGA Trump World!

Last modified: 24 Sep 2025, 12:09:45 UTC Indeed he is BACK: Kimmel pulls no punches as he ramps up battle with Trump wrote: ... Kimmel chose his words carefully as he said he accepted that some people felt his remarks about Kirk's death had been "ill-timed or unclear or maybe both", and told them: "I get why you're upset." Last week, the host made a clumsy connnection between the man suspected of shooting the conservative influencer earlier this month and the "Maga gang", and joked that Trump's reaction was akin to "how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish". ... he told viewers it was "never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man". And, again, it was not his "intention" to "blame any specific group" for the actions of Kirk's killer... [Later in the show:] ... "He tried his best to cancel me," Kimmel said. "Instead he forced millions of people to watch the show. That backfired bigly. He might have to release the Epstein files to distract us from this now." The host added: "A government threat to silence a comedian the president doesn't like is anti-American," before repeating for emphasis: "That's anti-American."... ... "Let's see how we do," the president continued. "Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 Million Dollars. This one sounds even more lucrative." That's a reference to the amount Disney paid last year to settle a defamation lawsuit, external brought by Trump after a star ABC anchor falsely said the president had been found "liable for rape". Disney's decision to settle rather than fight that lawsuit has since been seen by some commentators as emboldening Trump... ... Kimmel took aim at US media regulator the FCC, enlisting Robert De Niro - Trump's most vocal critic in Hollywood - to play its new chairman, and suggesting the FCC is "using mob tactics to suppress free speech". De Niro told Kimmel that only praise for Trump was now free, but insults would come at a price. "You want to say something nice about the president's beautiful thick yellow hair and how he can do his make-up better than any broad, that's free," De Niro said. "But if you want to do a joke like, 'He's so fat he needs two seats on the Epstein jet', that's going to cost you." The actor struggled to suppress a smile. Kimmel asked: "For clarity, because it's a pretty good joke, how much would that one cost me?" "A couple of fingers, maybe a tooth," came the reply. Sadly excellent! ... And the tooth fairy gets rich. Stay safe folks...? Martin See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) ID: 2151757 · Reply Quote

About 750,000 federal workers will be taking unpaid leave each day, according to an estimate from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO).

Fans hoping to attend matches must apply and enter the same queue as other visitors to the US, and can face delays so long that they may be unable to be approved for a visa in time to attend the tournament. Applications for US visas usually involve at least one face-to-face interview at an embassy, and the Trump administration has increased its officials' powers to investigate applicants' social media use and public political statements. As things stand, average wait times for an initial tourist visa interview for some countries are well over a year. "The visa process in the USA has not been very clear or efficient for decades. The regulations really haven't changed that much - how strictly some of the rules are enforced is really what is [important] here. Forced deportations by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers have also increased on the orders of Trump, who has deployed National Guard troops in Democrat-led cities, including Los Angeles, which will host eight matches. ICE and National Guard deployments have drawn mass protests from distrustful communities in some cities, and Trump has threatened to force matches to be moved from cities he deems "unsafe". What FIFA says... ...Fifa president Gianni Infantino has repeatedly insisted that "the world will be welcome" during next summer's men's World Cup, which will be held mostly by the USA, with some matches in Canada and Mexico. "We'll bring the world to the United States of America," the Swiss said earlier this year. "The world loves America, whatever some might say." Hey Gianni, have you told "The Duck" that?
