I had that. A mild case of facial paralysis. It ended up being nothing (stress induced, and it happens quite frequently to a lot of people). But it can also be one first sign of a stroke.
Which any of his doctors would notice immediately. So, nothing to see here.

Viewers of CNN News were outraged when the broadcasters continued to air, despite American President Donald Trump's face seemingly drooping. The US leader sparked concerns for his health following a recent public appearance at a 9/11 anniversary memorial service at the Pentagon.

While he was at the event, his appearance was being broadcast all over the world, which was when fans noticed Mr Trump's mouth appeared to droop to one side - with CNN continuing to film, despite worries from fans. One X user posted an image of the president in which, they claimed: "He looks like he has had a TIA/minor stroke. This isn’t a one off expression, he’s been like this for 30 mins". A second X user claimed: "Don't usually buy into conspiracy theories much but Trump definitely looks like he's had a stroke at some point." A third added: "Trump struggling to keep his eyes open at 9/11 remembrance event at the Pentagon".

There has been no official update on Trump's health from the White House, and no confirmation of the president suffering any medical incident.

However, fans online are now calling for the American news channel to investigate the President's health issues, criticising show bosses for not deciding to stop airing.

Posting to X, one viewer said: "@jaketapper @CNN In the interest of #journalism, your network thought Joe Biden's health was worthy of non-stop coverage. Isn't it time you dug into Trump's obvious health issues?"

I was reading the subtitles of this on another subreddit and it was taken down while I was reading. I expect the same thing to happen here.

ABC Pulls ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ Indefinitely After Host’s Charlie Kirk Comments
By Brian Steinberg

Disney’s ABC said it would take Jimmy Kimmel‘s popular late-night show off its schedule “indefinitely” after one of the biggest owners of TV stations in the U.S., Nexstar Media, said it would pre-empt airings of the program following remarks the host made about the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Nexstar said Wednesday that its “owned and partner television stations affiliated with the ABC Television Network will preempt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for the foreseeable future, beginning with tonight’s show.” The company said it “strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets.”

In his monologue Monday night , Kimmel said that the “MAGA gang” was trying to score political points off Kirk’s murder. Kirk, a prominent conservative activist, was shot and killed Sept. 10 at a debate at Utah Valley University. Three days later, authorities announced they had arrested the suspected shooter.

“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang trying to characterize this kid who killed Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them,” Kimmel said.

More to come..

There's a show that features someplace called the upside down I think. For us it was either the Twilight Zone or
Bizarro World.

I don't know what to call this. :freaking:
