Sources say Jimmy Kimmel is very upset with ABC’s choice to suspend his late-night show after his controversial remarks about Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
Jimmy Kimmel Live! is temporarily off the air after host Jimmy Kimmel, 57, made a controversial comment about Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old suspect in the Kirk case. Kimmel suggested Robinson held conservative beliefs, leading to the show being removed from the network for now.
According to a source who spoke with Daily Mail, Jimmy is very upset about his suspension and the show’s suspension, and he’s exploring options to terminate his contract.
This was the final breaking point for Jimmy, and he’s now decided to end his relationship with ABC permanently, according to a source.
Stephen Colbert, who will be ending his show, The Late Show, in May 2026 after cancellations began in July, is reportedly hoping to have Jimmy Kimmel as a guest. Both comedians have faced challenges for speaking out against the Trump administration, and this shared experience is said to be the reason for the potential interview.
Both individuals strongly oppose Trump’s victory, and this has motivated Jimmy to be honest and authentic in his commentary.
Stephen Colbert is hoping to have Jimmy as a guest on his show very soon, possibly within the next few days or week.
Now that they both oppose the Trump administration, they’re exploring ways to collaborate and advocate for their shared values.
Okay, so everyone’s talking about Jimmy Kimmel’s take on things, but the investigators? They’re saying it’s way more complicated. Apparently, this Robinson guy, the one they think did the shooting, wasn’t some right-wing extremist like everyone’s jumping to conclusions about. They’re saying he leaned *far* left, and get this – he was actually dating his transgender roommate! It’s just… a lot to process, and honestly, it feels like the media isn’t telling us the full story. I’ve been digging, and it’s definitely not as simple as they’re making it out to be.
The TV personality immediately faced criticism from Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr after falsely claiming that Robinson supported the MAGA movement.
On Wednesday, Carr mentioned to conservative podcast host Benny Johnson that he was thinking about launching an investigation into Jimmy Kimmel and his network, ABC, because of his controversial comments.
Senator Carr told Johnson that Jimmy Kimmel’s behavior seemed extremely inappropriate and disturbing.
As you pointed out, the FCC has options in this situation, so I need to proceed cautiously. We might eventually have to make rulings on any claims that arise.
Kimmel’s comments about Robinson came during his Monday night monologue.
As a longtime observer, it was really disheartening to see the extreme lengths some on the right went to over the weekend. They were clearly trying to distance themselves from the young man accused of targeting Charlie Kirk, and it felt incredibly cynical – all they seemed to care about was twisting the situation to their political advantage. It was a truly low point, honestly.
