If this is the case then why’d he claim that it was a “desperate lie” that a nude woman appeared on his TV?

MAGA people aren't exactly known for reacting reasonably.

No, he'll blame the firings on the Democrats too.

The TV thing has been resolved:

But the investigators confirmed that the complaint was true; a TV in the office did in fact show the images in question, including the "chiropractic table." The naked women did not come from anyone's secret stash of pornography, however; they came from Jackie Chan's 1985 film The Protector.

But why was The Protector showing on a TV in a state office building at all? Investigators came to find out that the Samsung smart TV in question—recently installed in the office—had been set up in such a way that it defaulted to showing Samsung TV Plus Channel 1204, the "Movie Hub Action." (You can see Samsung's full list of TV Plus streaming channels here.) And at the time of the state board meeting, Movie Hub Action was streaming The Protector. How and why the TV was turned on or switched to this streaming channel isn't clear, but the whole thing appears to be an absolutely bizarre accident.

Anybody know when the rising sea levels caused by the climax "hoax" will put Mar-a-Lago under water?

To be more precise, q means quit the current window. If you've split the window, e.g. with :split or :vsplit, use :qa to quit all windows.

They should go around Sinclair and Nexstar and put the show on Disney+ or Hulu, along with whatever cable channel they have where it might fit.

The link doesn't work; the story is still on Fightful's front page and the link there doesn't work either. Fightful's site has been a little iffy since the design was updated, but this is new.

Kid Rock is probably going to try to put together a show in California now, just because Newsom said he couldn't.

They haven't fired Kimmel; they've suspended his show indefinitely, i.e. with the possibility of a return.

A rich American asshole's superyacht would be a good test subject.
