Jimmy Kimmel has been invaluable as one of the late night television hosts that have been fearless in battling Trump and his lies, from the election to COVID.

To be fair, all of them, Jimmy Kimmel, Steven Colbert… and eventually Jimmy Fallon came around from “neutrality,” and like a temporal shield ensured that late night shows after 11:30/10:30 would be a shield against the disinformation coming from the Trump White House and the Trump post-election era, though today.

Kimmel celebrated his fifteenth year anniversary this last week and did so by lambasting the Republicans, including Trump and his friends at Fox News.

First, Kimmel lined up Peter Doocy for some humiliation, for asking questions like “for how long has the administration been ‘spying’ on people’s Faebook pages, Kimmel even found an old video of him asking the late John McCain a question that left McCain asking Doocy how he could ask something so stupid, and McCain was not angry with him! He genuinely wanted to know how he could ask something that dumb.

Kimmel moved on to Eric Trump saying that Biden’s administration is lazy, while noting that Trump played 87 rounds of golf during his first administration, talk of Trump tripling the size of everything he has financially.

Jimmy Kimmel also wanted to make a pick for the SCOTUS, he wants Anita Hill to sit there, across from Thomas, open a can of coke, and ask; “How was your weekend, bitch.”

It runs a bit long at 15:00 minutes, which is why we worked in so many of the highlights, but there are more and it is worth a listen.
