This Won’t Stop With Jimmy Kimmel

On Monday night, Jimmy Kimmel commented that American politics had “hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.” Kimmel seemed to imply that the man accused of killing the conservative activist Charlie Kirk was a Donald Trump–supporting conservative. This was at best an unconfirmed rumor at the time, and as more evidence has emerged, seems flatly incorrect. Kimmel should have chosen his words more carefully.

Hegseth Leads Push to Punish Military Service Members Over Charlie Kirk Comments

THE PENTAGON HAS ramped up a political correctness crusade in the wake of the killing of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk.

The military is taking disciplinary action against both enlisted troops and officers over social media posts regarding Kirk, who was shot last week at an event at Utah Valley University.

In the wake of Kirk’s death, a number of X accounts began calling for their followers to find social media posts made by troops that they saw as being critical of — or even not sufficiently deferential to — Kirk or mocking or celebrating his death. The accounts began posting screenshots, tagging Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and other senior Pentagon officials and calling for the troops to be fired.

Jaguar Land Rover extends shutdown after cyberattack by another week

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) announced today that it will extend the production shutdown for another week, following a devastating cyberattack that impacted its systems at the end of August.

JRL is a standalone entity under Tata Motors India, following its acquisition from Ford in 2008. JLR employs approximately 39,000 people, makes more than 400,000 vehicles each year, and has reported an annual revenue of over $38 billion (£29 billion).

The British automaker has been working to resume operations since it disclosed the attack on September 2, stating that its production had been significantly disrupted. Last week, JLR also confirmed that the attackers stole ”some data” during the breach and instructed staff not to report to work.
