Related: About this forumKimmel's BRILLIANT Response to Melania's Demand ABC Fire Him 🔥 - "Talk to Your Husband"! - LateNight
Melania Trump called Kimmel's words "corrosive" and demanded ABC fire him all over a joke he made at his Alternative WHCD roast five days ago.
The joke? "You have a glow like an expectant widow."
Kimmel's response? He's not backing down.
"If you want to believe a joke I made three days before this dinner had any effect on anything that happened maybe someone should look into that psychic lady too."
And his closing message to Melania?
"I think a great place to start to dial back hateful and violent rhetoric would be to have a conversation with your husband about it."
As reported by USA Today this morning, April 28, 2026.

They clearly get under the fascists skin.

And Colbert is in repeats again this week, since I post his monologue and any political guests every night, have since 2017 I think. TexasTowelie posts Jimmy Kimmel. And I'm really bummed out that Colbert is in repeats this week since he's running out of time.

If my counting is correct, Colbert has 12 more shows left.

They are the NATIONAL CONSCIENCE during a currently "consciousless political era".
