Former Motorsport -Star Danica Patrick has weighed in Disney’s unlimited removal of talk show host Jimmy Kimmel from ABC air waves to the recent comments about Charlie Kirk’s assault.
In posts on social media on Wednesday, Patrick Kimmel’s removal celebrated.
One of her Instagram stories shared a news report on Kimmel’s removal, with her own caption “Human decency comes back. Thank goodness.”

Patrick also shared a screen shot of one of Kirk’s own tweets from 2017 reading, “Jimmy Kimmel isn’t fun.”
Patrick has been an obvious conservative in recent years who has strongly supported President Donald Trump and most of his policies.
She is one of the many right -wing figures on social media defending the recent decision to remove Kimmel for his recent comments.
On Monday, Kimmel accused the Conservatives of reaching “new low lower” in an attempt to establish leftist ideology on 22-year-old suspected Tyler Robinson, though prosecutors confirmed these ties to Tuesday’s indictment.
“We hit some new low low over the weekend with the Maga Band, desperately trying to characterize this child who murdered Charlie Kirk as something other than one of them and does everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel said.
Kimel’s comments came one day after both the FBI officials and the Utah government Spencer Cox said Robinson held a “leftist ideology” and was increasingly radicalized in recent years. It was also revealed that he had a romantic relationship with a biologically male roommate who transcends to female.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Brendan Carr then issued a threat to Disney if it did not deal with the controversy.

Appears on Wednesday’s “The Benny Show”, Carr called Kimel’s comment.
“In some quarters, there is a very concerted effort to try to lie to the American people about nature … of one of the most significant news-worthy public interests that we have seen for a long time in what seems to be an act of Jimmy Kimmel to play into the tale that this was somehow a maga or a republican motive,” Carr said Carren Beny Johnson.

Nexstar Media Group, which owns hundreds of television stations, earlier announced that it would prevent Kimmel’s show at his ABC -associated companies from Wednesday night “for the clear future” and would replace it with other programming over his comments about suspected Charlie Kirk Assassin Tyler Robinson.
News about Kimmel’s removal from the air was then confirmed by Disney later on Wednesday night.
“Jimmy Kimmel Live will be prevented indefinitely,” a spokesman for Disney confirmed to Pakinomist Digital.
