Jimmy Kimmel mocked Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene after claiming that she reported one of his slap jokes to Capitol Police.
Apparently, the GOP congresswoman took issue with Kimmel’s joke during the April 5 episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” During the host’s monologue, Kimmel joked about wanting someone to slap Greene over her comments about the Supreme Court confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson. Kimmel evoked Will Smith, obviously pertaining to the Oscars slap.
“This woman, Klan mom, is especially upset with the three Republican senators who said they’ll vote yes on Ketanji Brown Jackson, who’s nominated for the Supreme Court,” Kimmel said, referring to Greene. “She tweeted, ‘Murkowski, Collins and Romney are pro-pedophile. They just voted for KBJ.’ Wow, where is Will Smith when you really need him?”
Greene turned to Twitter to say that Kimmel’s joke was a “threat of violence” against her. The Georgia congresswoman told ABC she had filed a report over the joke to Capitol Police.
In response, Kimmel mocked Greene by tweeting, “Officer? I would like to report a joke.”
The Supreme Court confirmation hearings of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson led several Hollywood stars to criticize Republicans for their views on the matter.
Last month, actor Ron Perlman called Senator Ted Cruz a “big prick” for the way he questioned Brown. Cruz pressed Jackson about her role as a board member of the Georgetown Day School. The school uses books such as Ibram X. Kendi’s “Antiracist Baby.” Cruz asked Jackson whether or not she believes “babies are racist.”
“Hi Ted, Ron here,” Perlman said in a clip uploaded to Twitter. “Listen, I know how tempting it is to appeal to the real lowest form of humanity here in the United States, the bottom feeders…but Jesus Christ Ted, for somebody with a really, really small d**k, you get to be a bigger prick every fucking day. Go f**k yourself.”

Fits right in line with the Left’s agenda. First SCOTUS member that doesn’t even know if it’s a woman, or whatever. Pedophilia, come on people, that’s just common practice now days. Come on man! God help us all.

Typical hysterical right wing reply, assuming there’s some vast conspiracy lurking in every shadow.

Kimmel is an a—–e just like the rest of the anti-Trump late night talk show hosts. These shows appeal to the liberal commie Democrats. Anyone with intelligence wouldn’t watch late night talk TV as they are outlets on par with CNN/MSNBC. Facts are Facts. Affirmative Action for the Supreme Court. Jackson is unqualified to sit on the Supreme Court. Lying corrupt Quid Pro KING Joe so much as said, he wanted a Black Woman on the Court, and that’s fine just as long as one is qualified. Jackson is not. The Only reason Jackson was placed on the Court is because Jackson is an African American and for what Jackson represents, not because Jackson is well versed or believes in the Constitution. When Jackson was approved for the Supreme Court, all the liberal commie Democrats were all clapping. These ignoramuses’ should be proud of themselves. These schmucks for politicians placed on the Supreme Court, the first unqualified African American Woman, and that’s something the liberal commie Democrats can be proud of.

I’m trying to think the least I can about it…she’s just an unqualified Liberal Democrat replacing ANOTHER unqualified Liberal Democrat, who is only retiring because the REAL people in charge wanted to make history by, again, using a Black person to make themselves feel superior to the Right…you know, the Party that’s capable of processing logic instead of ‘feelings’.

Jimmy Kimmel is almost as big an asshole as Stephen Colbert.

I am thinking it is pretty much a tie.
