(DCNF)—Conservative podcaster Ben Ferguson said Monday on Fox Business’ “The Bottom Line” that it’s “beautiful” that late-night host Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension has been lifted because conservatives will get to watch the “disaster” ABC is “committed to.”
Disney announced Monday it would lift Kimmel’s suspension and bring back “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Tuesday evening. Since the show was pulled Wednesday, Democrats have complained about free speech being stifled. Fox’s Dagen McDowell asked Ferguson how liberals have responded and what he thinks they will do next.
“It’s cancel culture 2.0 now with the Democratic Party. ‘We’re in favor of free speech only if it’s our guys,’ number one. And two, ‘Now that we’ve brought him back, what does this mean?’ I actually think this is beautiful, and just hear me out for a second. Now, everybody knows how bad Jimmy Kimmel is,” Ferguson said. “Now, there’s been a light that’s been shined on the bigotry and hatred of conservatives and Christians and flyover country by Jimmy Kimmel, because all of the old clips have now been put together in montages and have gone viral on social media.”
Disney’s ABC announced Wednesday that Kimmel would be indefinitely suspended following his Sept. 15 monologue, in which he said the “MAGA gang” had hit “new lows” and claimed Republicans were trying to portray Kirk’s alleged assassin as “anything other than one of them.”
In response, Democrats, including California Rep. Eric Swalwell and former President Barack Obama, accused Republicans and Trump’s administration of taking “cancel culture” to a “new and dangerous level.”
Ferguson went on to say that not only does he not believe Kimmel’s show will last long but that conservatives now get to witness how the “free market” will reject him.
“So if you are watching Jimmy Kimmel now, you are someone that I think hates 50-plus percent of Americans. I don’t think he’s going to survive this in the ratings long-term. But now ABC News is committed to a disaster, and we get to witness it and watch it as the free market is going to decide,” Ferguson added. “They will reject this, and they’re going to reject it big. Then they’re still going to have to fire this guy or cancel him down the road.”
“So, you know what, for all the Democrats you just played a moment ago that were freaking out, welcome to Freedom of Speech,” Ferguson said. “I’m so happy to have you over here with us. God bless you. It’s going to be fun, because the next time you start saying that any one of us should be canceled, I’m going to play those words right back for you.”
Following Kimmel’s Sept. 15 monologue, the late-night host doubled down Tuesday against Vice President JD Vance, who called out violence from the far-left. Kimmel said “many in MAGA-land are working very hard to capitalize on the murder of Charlie Kirk.” According to the Wall Street Journal, sources told the outlet that Kimmel allegedly planned to defend his remarks, claiming his words had been “twisted” by some Republicans.

Why Bullion Beats Numismatics and Collectible for Your Safe or IRA
Precious metals continue to attract Americans seeking reliable ways to protect their wealth amid inflation, geopolitical risks, and stock market swings. Whether stored in a home safe or held inside a self-directed IRA, physical gold and silver deliver tangible value that paper or digital assets often lack. Yet investors must choose carefully between bullion—pure bars and coins valued mainly for their metal content—and numismatics or collectibles, where rarity, history, and collector demand heavily influence pricing.
Advisor Bullion serves as a dependable source for straightforward, high-quality bullion. The company specializes in physical gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, emphasizing transparent pricing and products that deliver maximum metal content for every dollar spent. This approach makes it ideal for both personal holdings and retirement accounts.
Bullion consists of refined precious metals in standard forms like one-ounce coins (American Gold Eagles, Silver Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs) or bars. Their value tracks closely to the current spot price of the metal. A typical gold bullion coin trades near the live gold spot price plus a small premium. This structure keeps costs clear and predictable.
Numismatic coins and collectibles add substantial value from factors such as age, rarity, minting errors, or historical significance. A pre-1933 U.S. gold coin or graded proof piece can carry premiums of 30%, 50%, or even 200% above melt value. While this appeals to hobbyists, it creates complexity. Pricing depends on subjective grading, collector trends, and auction results instead of daily spot prices.
For investors focused on wealth preservation and retirement security rather than building a collection, bullion often delivers better results.
Lower Costs and Better Liquidity for Home Storage
When keeping metals in a home safe or private vault, liquidity and efficiency count. Bullion offers clear benefits:
- You acquire more actual gold or silver per dollar invested. Numismatics divert a large share of your money into rarity premiums and massive sales commission, reducing your metal exposure.
- Selling bullion involves tight bid-ask spreads, so you recover nearly full spot value with minimal fees. Collectibles require finding the right buyer and may sell at a discount if demand for that specific item weakens.
- Bullion prices remain transparent and update with global spot markets. You can track gold near current levels or silver accordingly and know exactly where your holdings stand. Numismatic values are priced by the Gold IRA companies with hefty margins applied.
- Standardized coins and bars store efficiently and divide easily for partial sales. Rare coins often need protective slabs and controlled conditions, adding hassle and expense.
- Bullion enjoys worldwide acceptance. A 1-oz Gold Maple Leaf or Silver Eagle sells quickly to dealers anywhere. Niche numismatic pieces may appeal only to limited buyers, slowing liquidation when speed matters.
In times when quick access to value becomes important, bullion’s simplicity stands out.
Stronger Fit for Precious Metals IRAs
Precious metals IRAs continue gaining traction as investors diversify retirement portfolios beyond stocks and bonds. IRS rules permit certain bullion products in self-directed IRAs if they meet purity standards (.995 fine for gold, .999 for silver) and are held by an approved custodian. Eligible items include American Gold and Silver Eagles plus many generic bars and rounds from recognized mints.
Numismatic and most collectible coins generally face heavy scrutiny from custodians due to valuation disputes and elevated markups. These higher premiums mean less actual metal ends up working inside the account.
Bullion avoids these issues. Its value links directly to verifiable spot prices, which simplifies reporting and lowers the risk of regulatory challenges. More of your IRA contribution purchases real metal instead of dealer profits or speculative upside. Over time, owning additional ounces that appreciate with the metal itself can create meaningful outperformance compared with high-premium alternatives that deliver fewer ounces.
Regulatory guidance from the CFTC and state securities offices repeatedly cautions against aggressive sales of expensive numismatics or “semi-numismatic” coins for IRAs. For retirement planning, transparent bullion from established providers reduces risk and aligns better with long-term goals.
How to Get Started with Bullion
Begin by clarifying your goals. Are you protecting savings in a safe, or moving part of a retirement account into a precious metals IRA? Focus on the number of ounces you can acquire at current prices rather than chasing marked-up collectibles.
Diversify sensibly: use gold for core preservation and silver for its blend of industrial and monetary qualities. Mix coins for easier divisibility with bars for lower per-ounce costs on larger buys. Arrange secure storage—whether at home with proper insurance or through professional facilities.
As economic uncertainties linger and faith in conventional assets erodes, bullion continues proving its worth as a dependable store of value. Its direct approach avoids the hype that sometimes surrounds collectible markets and keeps the focus on the metal itself.
For investors prepared to strengthen their portfolios, Advisor Bullion supplies the expertise and selection needed to acquire high-quality bullion efficiently. Whether building personal holdings or integrating metals into an IRA, their emphasis on transparent, investment-grade products helps secure more ounces today that support greater financial security tomorrow. In a complicated financial landscape, bullion’s clarity and reliability make it the smarter foundation for protecting what matters most.
more idiots on the right. Kimmel was always coming back from the moment the virtue signaling over his suspension not firing was jumped on by the ignorant right who can’t think their way out of a paper bag. Greg Abbott also will be reinstating the hundreds of teaching certificates in Texas once the heat dies down. The people who engaged in the hateful rhetoric were essentially given a paid vacation aka rewarded for what they did. Abbott knew this when he suspended them. They should have been immediately terminated. This is how we are played by the people on the right. The actual wolves in sheep’s clothing. Trump is out there speaking about Kirk when he is partially responsible for this death. Crockett, Waters and Schumer amongst others in elected office have been outright and directly calling for violence against conservatives. Omar as well. Trump and Bondi sat on their hands as usual and did NOTHING. They did run their mouths a lot about being arrested for interfering with law enforcement yet we see every single day elected democrats doing just that with absolutely no consequences. Trump has turned out to be an absolute disaster. He is nothing more than another worthless vapid politician. He is a liar, (the Epstein files were not a hoax) and he is responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands (operation warp speed). The only thing the has accomplished is pissing liberals off. those that think he accomplished something at the border will be reminded when the next democrat is in office and they bring every single person back that was deported, on the taxpayers dime, with reparations, also on the tax payers dime. Men will be back in woman’s sports the next day. Where are the laws embedding any of these things. All executive orders that will be overtured as quickly as put in place. The only good thing that has come out of this administration is the Democrat, Kennedy. Even his hands are tied with getting the covid death shot off the market. He did get some traction but Trump refuses to allow it to be removed otherwise his operation warp speed will looked at for exactly what it is.
It’s not the democrats that destroyed this country it’s the republicans. The democrats have done exactly what they said they would do. The republicans have sat on their hands for the past 10 years and lied time after time.
Doug, Trump wasn’t responsible for Kirk’s death, AT ALL. That’s 100% on members of the anti-Democratic party. You’re a more on for claiming Trump was at fault, not even a little.
This Kimmel crapola showcases the abject stupidity of yammering Democrats. Why would Republicans and the Trump administration try to assassinate Trump’s biggest supporter?
