Summary

This week on The Bulletin, Mike and Clarissa discuss ABC’s decision to suspend “Jimmy Kimmel Live” after Kimmel’s comments about Charlie Kirk. Then, why are more countries recognizing a Palestinian state, and how does that relate to Tucker Carlson’s antisemitic comments? Mike and Clarissa discuss MAHA’s claims that there could be a connection between autism and taking Tylenol while pregnant, and conspiracy theories around Big Pharma. Finally, Clarissa sits down with Jonathan Liedl from the National Catholic Register to reflect on the pro-life movement.
