Jimmy Kimmel is back, Peter Strzok is dismissed from the FBI, and the Secret Service is investigating whether or not the escalator stopped at the United Nation's General Assembly as President Trump and First Lady Michelle Obama stepped onto it. Plus, a story about a missing transgender man who may have been involved in the assassination of his transgender partner.
00:00:00.000Hello, everybody. I'm John Fawcett with this Great America Show midday update for Wednesday, September 24th.
00:00:05.340Happy Wednesday, folks. Jimmy Kimmel is back. I hate to say it, but he was back last night and everything you expected.
00:00:14.840Spent better half of the show talking about President Trump, talking about FCC chairman Brendan Carr in what was a Marxist damn meltdown is what I'd like to call it.
00:00:25.200President Trump putting out a message on Truth Social just hours before ABC aired.
00:00:31.140Now, it wasn't aired on all ABC stations in America.
00:00:34.660Only about 80 percent of the stations, 20 percent of the stations that are run by affiliates Sinclair and Nexstar decided they won't be running Kimmel anymore, at least for the foreseeable future, not caving to the woke left as ABC did.
00:00:49.640Anyway, President Trump posted just hours before the show, that's Kimmel's show, on Truth Social, quote,
00:00:56.440I can't believe ABC fake news gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back.
00:01:00.720The White House was told by ABC that his show was canceled.
00:01:04.060Something happened between then and now because his audience is gone and his talent was never there.
00:01:09.100Why would they want someone back who does so poorly, who's not funny, and who puts the network in jeopardy by playing 99 percent positive Democrat garbage?
00:01:19.820He's yet another arm of the DNC, and to the best of my knowledge, that would be a major illegal campaign contribution.
00:01:26.780I think we're going to test ABC out on this.
00:01:36.140Let Jimmy Kimmel rot in his bad ratings.
00:01:40.260And that was the message President Trump had to share on Truth Social.
00:01:44.420President Trump not as happy, not happy, I should say, just like I think most of us are to see Jimmy Kimmel back on air.
00:01:52.720Yesterday, President Trump was at the United Nations General Assembly, and he went to go step on an escalator,
00:01:57.980and the escalator all of a sudden coincidentally stopped.
00:02:01.080Well, now, the Secret Service is investigating the situation.
00:02:06.740White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt says the Secret Service is investigating whether or not UN staffers intentionally stopped the escalator as President Trump and the First Lady stepped onto it.
00:02:19.060And if they did, there's going to be major consequences to be had.
00:02:23.360It turns out not all judges in America have gone rogue and full Marxist left just yet.
00:02:30.860Former FBI agent Peter Strzok, you remember that, folk, right?
00:02:39.220He was the 99-to-1-ers who said Donald Trump was definitely not going to win.
00:02:43.340Well, he had a long-running lawsuit claiming he was illegally fired during Donald Trump's first term after sending those text messages criticizing President Trump.
00:02:52.100Strzok argued in the lawsuit that the FBI bosses had retaliated against him in order to placate Trump,
00:02:59.080who he says was outraged over the text messages between Strzok and his girlfriend.
00:03:03.820Well, in a ruling this afternoon, a U.S. district judge said that after several years of gathering evidence and testimony
00:03:11.700from those involved in the 2018 decision to terminate the veteran counterintelligent,
00:03:16.880Strzok's lawyers had failed to show that his dismissal violated his First Amendment rights.
00:03:23.120Now, last year, the Department of Justice agreed to pay Peter Strzok a settlement of $1.2 million
00:03:28.460over the release of those anti-Trump text messages.
00:03:32.480Strzok then sued the DOJ for unlawfully disclosing his text messages to his paramour, Lisa Page.
00:03:40.480And filling in, folks, as we get information here on The Great America Show about Charlie Kirk
00:03:46.180and all those involved in the assassination on him, well, we got some news to bring in.
00:03:51.900Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson lived with his transgender partner,
00:03:56.760a male-to-female transition, named Lance Luna Twiggs.
00:04:01.340That's the fellow who the FBI used his text messages to find out where Robinson was
00:04:07.160and ultimately find out what he was doing.
00:04:10.340Lance Twiggs was reportedly cooperating with the FBI.
00:04:12.800However, according to the Daily Mail, he seemingly vanished.
00:04:17.560Quote, if Lance Twiggs ever comes back, it will be in a body bag, a neighbor said to the Daily Mail.
