We live in a country where some of the best journalists are late night comedians & editorial cartoonists. THANK YOU Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, John Oliver, Jimmy Fallon, Tom Tomorrow, Mike Luckovich & Michael de Adder ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! #LAUGH_DO_NOT_DESPAIR ✊

Melania didn't write this. Duh. But the Trump Committee to Spread Propaganda has moved on, temporarily, from having everyone talk up how necessary Donald's tacky ballroom is to talking about how dangerous Jimmy Kimmel is.

Sinclair and Nexstar's loss. Weird how capitulating to Trump (or embracing him) never seems to work out like you think it will.

NEWS Jimmy Kimmel’s return episode was watched by 6.3 million viewers on broadcast TV. These numbers are triple his normal viewership, and it’s important to note 23% of households didn’t have access to show due to preemption by Sinclair/Nexstar. Monologue was viewed over 25 million times online.

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives. He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

Freedom of speech is EVERYTHING. Welcome back, Jimmy Kimmel.

As an aside, I wonder if it’s starting to dawn on white people who think Trump/MAGA won’t come after *them* that both Colbert and Kimmel are wealthy Christian straight white guys.

Late night hosts criticizing the president isn’t new. Having a thin-skinned dictator wannabe who can’t take it is.

This is a massive, history making abuse of your power. It will define your legacy and one day you will come to regret punishing free speech and trying to destroy democracy.

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved
— e.w. niedermeyer (@niedermeyer.online) September 17, 2025 at 7:00 PM
There isn't even the slightest amount of subtlety to this. Kimmel criticized the party in power, so the regulators ordered ABC to cancel his show. No different from what would have happened in the Soviet Union. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/17/b...

Kimmel after Trump’s rambling, bizarre Truth Social Easter message to the world:
— Bob Geiger (@GeigerNews) April 11, 2023
“He did share a religious message yesterday... He wrote ‘I prefer sons of God that weren't captured and crucified.’ He didn't actually write that. But 70% of you believed it and that's... telling.” pic.twitter.com/NFqzeiU6mz
“Sadly, testing positive for COVID was the only positive thing he did in four years as president,” Jimmy Kimmel
