BC's Jimmy Kimmel is once again using his show as a political platform, encouraging his audience to vote out of office Republicans donate money to EveryTown.org, a gun control group seeking to "end gun violence in America."
The host aimed his most pointed criticism at President Trump, saying, "You're obviously mentally ill."
"You’ve literally done nothing," on guns, Kimmel complained. "Actually, you’ve done worse than nothing. You like to say this is a mental health issue. One of your very first acts as president, Mr. Trump, was to roll back the regulations that were designed to keep firearms out of the hands of mentally ill. You did that. Your party voted to repeal the mandates on coverage for mental health. So I agree, this is a mental illness issue, because if you don’t think we need to do something about it, you’re obviously mentally ill."
Kimmel also blasted Republicans more generally, calling them "allegedly Christian."
"Tell these congressmen and lobbyists who infest that swamp you said you were going to drain, force these allegedly Christian men and women who stuff their pockets with money from the NRA year after year after year to do something," Kimmel said. "Now, not later. Now. And don’t you dare let anyone say it’s too soon to be talking about it, because you said it after Vegas, you said it after Sandy Hook, you say that after every one of these eight now fatal school shootings we had in this country this year. Children are being murdered."
Kimmel said he's not going to allow grieving politicians to focus on prayer.
"Eight out of 10 Americans agree that a teenager shouldn’t have an AR-15," he said. "So why does a teenager legally have an AR-15? Somewhere along the line, these guys forgot they work for us, not the NRA. Us. And this time we’re not going to allow you to bow your head in prayer for two weeks."
Watch Kimmel's monologue above.
It is fools like this one makes me miss Jay Leno.
Or Chicago, or DC, or Baltimore or NYC, or...............
Did he say this on the estrogen hour?
He may as well officially become a (fake) news show, like those on MSNBC. I’m sure Rachael Maddow could lend him some fake smart glasses and teach him how to wear his hair just like hers.
With the 2016 election, they thought for sure that Hillary Clinton would be swept into the presidency and that they would finally be able to completely destroy conservatism in America. And trust me, our republic would have been destroyed once and for all. All the tools would have been in place.
Then came Donald Trump and those Utopian one-world dreams were shattered.
Only this can explain the hatred they have for President Trump and all those who voted him into office.
You haven’t missed much.
Kimmel, rhymes with Kibble.
Both turn in to DOG S#!t!...............
You and I must know different Millenials.
The ones I have contact with (aside from my own kids) tend to swallow whatever crap comes across their smartphone hook, line and sinker. Their critical thinking ability is about zero.
William Shirer wrote in The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich that Hitler wept when he was given tour of a cattle slaughterhouse. He was a vegetarian.
Kimmel is a damned liar and I would punch him in the nose for it.
“You’ve literally done nothing,” on guns, Kimmel complained.
What would you have him do? This is knee-jerk stuff. “Just do something!”
“Kimmel was born in Brooklyn, New York, and grew up in the neighborhood of Mill Basin[2] as the eldest of three children of Joan (née Iacono), a homemaker, and James John Kimmel, who worked at American Express and was an IBM executive.
He is, and was raised, Catholic, and as a child served as an altar server. Kimmel’s mother is of Italian ancestry, while two of his paternal great-great-grandparents were German immigrants. His family’s surname was “Kümmel” several generations back.
The family moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, when he was nine years old. He graduated from Ed W. Clark High School, and then attended University of Nevada, Las Vegas (for one year) and Arizona State University (for two years). He received an honorary degree from UNLV in 2013.”
So he’s just another East Coast Born piece or $hit, who moved West with his family to Nevada. And now, it’s on to California to drop his load here.

Nope. Their gears are turning.
The millenials I know appear very passive about things like this. They tend to front a neutrality or apathy, but it’s a front. Some will be able to spew all the PC crap. There’s a rebellion stirring under there, and the two party system might be in jeapardy
He’s the Tammy Faye Baker of late night
Teenager? Nikolas Cruz was a law-abiding man, not a kid and he was legally entitled to own that AR-15. Millions of Americans do.
In his below the belt attacks on the President, Christians and gun owners, Jimmy Kimmel has revealed himself to be more deranged than them.
And what’s more deranged, pray tell, than using dead kids as a prop to take away Americans RKBA? Jimmy, STFU! You disgust me and you were never funny on your late night shtick.
Does his mascara run, too?..................
Why I don’t watch Hate Night TV
Put current shrinks in mental institutions. Put children who express the desire to kill their peers and teachers into institutions with sane treatment programs administered by sane individuals. Students and teachers across the country will be greatly relieved and more productive. The stress in schools where crazy children are allowed to coexist is not right. Eliminating firearms will not make the crazy children less dangerous.
Yeah, I had to go out and pick up a couple of “kimmels” off the front lawn this morning after our Golden Doodle “took her morning walk!”
Jimmy who? Does anyone watch this guy?
