Trump et al do not have an impressive track record anywhere below the Supreme Court level. How would you know?? You had the answers before. It was always their judgment call but you literally just said it was censorship. I didn't hear of ABC going to court to get him back on. I havent heard of the FCC now threatening to shut them down. So, where is the evidence he was taken off due to government censorship?
Sep 24, 2025Sep 24 Beerman said: Then, what happened to the ultimatums and threats from the FCC and Trump administration? He said "we're not done yet". But backed off some when he heard Kimmel was reinstated. Still he's on a rampage and many markets won't show Kimmel. https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/09/18/jimmy-kimmel-charlie-kirk-fcc-carr.html https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5516300-fcc-chair-carr-democrats-distortion/

What on earth are you talking about? The removal of Kimmel's show was punishment for his criticism and mockery of the president and his administration, IOW he was censored. And who said that abc went to court? The decision to defy trump and the FTC was the judgement call to which I was referring. And don't let it come as a shock to you, but "suspect" is not the same as "know". Try to keep up.

Um, punishment from whom?

Sep 24, 2025Sep 24 Experts Daisy4RN said: I realize there have already been studies which is why I said there is a "link". I literally gave you the most recent study with 2.5 MILLION children. Here it is again:- "The most recent and robust study to evaluate this association was published in 2024 by Ahlqvist et al. 1 This study of 2.5 million Swedish children found that, when controlling for important factors including parental neurodivergent diagnoses and sibling relationships, there was no association between paracetamol exposure and offspring neurodivergence." And there is no "link", only in the mind of the crazies who run your health service. Daisy4RN said: Pregnant women also listened to the "experts" and took thalidomide and we know the horrible outcomes from the side effects of that medication. And that is "whataboutism" and "deflection" in one sentence. As you said earlier :- that was in the 60's. I would hope we have learned a bit by now. Bear in mind that I remember the 60's and what it was like and will take no lessons from you about it. We had Polio, TB, Measles, Mumps German Measles. Daisy4RN said: Isn't this how science is supposed to work, ever evolving when new information comes into play Exactly, which is why Thalidomide is not used in pregnancy.

Distractify ABC Paid Trump $15 Million to Settle a Defamation Lawsuit and Avoid a Court Battle The settlement happened before Trump even took office. IMHO think ABC learned the lesson can't let a bully rule. So mafia now in the White House?: "I think we're going to test ABC out on this. Let's see how we do. Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 Million Dollars. This one sounds even more lucrative." Flip side of Trumps reasoning.... agree 100%:

As we all know studies can be false for a number of reasons. Why do you have such a problem with looking into the problem which just might help children. I am guessing it is just bc it is the Trump admin doing the looking.

As long as were are going to look into a problem which might help children, how about we study gun deaths? Firearms are the #1 killer of children in the USA.

The researchers don't agree that there's a link. We do know that studies can be false. The same guy feeding Trump this current line of BS first published an official HHS report that cited and relied upon fabricated and falsified studies. You know that, right?

I think that is a very good idea. We need to get to the root causes of why so many people are so violent in this country. Personally I think it has a lot to do with social media.
