Indeed: AI Overview Jimmy Kimmel's return show on ABC had 6.3 million broadcast viewers and a total of over 26 million views across social media platforms like YouTube, making it his most-watched episode in over a decade. This occurred despite the show being unavailable in about a quarter of the country due to affiliate blackouts.

They claim 1.6 million have self deported, sounds impressive, but how can one prove or disprove that? You can't.

A bit hyperbolic.

Well, that is one solution to the problem of the homeless and mentally ill in this country. I hoping that maybe this clip was taken out of context, but there is one running 1:38 and he doesn't qualify what he says.

I was told by the OP of the thread that calls Khalil an Antisemitic Jew Hating Palestinian Student "Your Pro-Hamas, Anti-Israeli rhetoric has no place here. Take your hate elsewhere" So per request, future news about Mahmood Khalil's deportation situation shall be posted here. Here is the latest about this Columbia University student: https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/1925549712729354567 ICE officials and a prison contractor have refused to grant a contact visit between Columbia grad student Mahmoud Khalil and his family, according to the ACLU, denying him the chance to hold his newborn son. His son was born last month while Khalil remained in ICE custody in Louisiana.

Not one shred of proof of that. None.

Don't blame Kimmel, it was not his decision. Barrett lost his job because the parent company of ABC (which aired Jimmy Kimmel Live!), required all employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

I am pretty sure they realize it, but they just don't care because they believe he is giving them most everything they want.

Are there democratic and liberal organizations that are holding these types of things at schools and during school hours?

Is the revisionist history now that liberals got The Dixie Chicks banned from Country Music stations?

You have got to be kidding. https://nypost.com/2025/09/18/media/sinclair-demands-jimmy-kimmel-apologize-to-charlie-kirks-family/ Local TV giant Sinclair demands Jimmy Kimmel make ‘direct apology’ to Charlie Kirk’s family, donate to TPUSA Sinclair Broadcasting said ABC’s suspension of Jimmy Kimmel was insufficient, announcing it will yank “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” from its stations until the host apologizes directly to Charlie Kirk’s family and donates to his political activist group. The Baltimore-based broadcaster, whose group of some 40 ABC local TV affiliates is the nation’s largest, said Kimmel’s on-air remarks about Kirk’s assassination were “inappropriate and deeply insensitive.” The company vowed not to return Kimmel’s show “until formal discussions are held with ABC regarding the network’s commitment to professionalism and accountability.” Sinclair said Disney-owned ABC’s suspension of Jimmy Kimmel was not enough and vowed to keep his show off its stations until he apologizes to Charlie Kirk’s family and donates to Turning Point USA. “We believe broadcasters have a responsibility to educate and elevate respectful, constructive dialogue in our communities,” Sinclair vice chairman Jason Smith said in a statement. Smith praised Brendan Carr, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, who told conservative podcasters that the agency would take action against ABC’s owner, Disney, in light of Kimmel’s remarks about Kirk. “This incident highlights the critical need for the FCC to take immediate regulatory action to address control held over local broadcasters by the big national networks,” Smith said.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/immigration-judge-orders-mahmoud-khalil-deported-algeria-syria-rcna232049 Immigration judge orders Mahmoud Khalil to be deported to Algeria or Syria An immigration judge has ordered Mahmoud Khalil be deported to Algeria or Syria, alleging he omitted information from his green card application, according to court documents filed Wednesday. Khalil, a former Columbia University graduate student whose case has been at the center of the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration and on vocal opponents of Israel's war in Gaza, was detained by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement in March and released in June. Immigration Judge Jamee Comans, based out of Jena, Louisiana, on Friday denied Khalil's motion for a waiver preventing his removal from the United States because of alleged misrepresentations made in an application for an adjustment of status. Khalil's attorneys said they have 30 days from the Friday order to appeal the decision to the Board of Immigration Appeals. In that order, Comans cited that on June 20, the court issued a written decision denying Khalil’s application for asylum and ordered he be removed to Algeria and Syria. She doubled down on that ruling, saying the court found Khalil’s “lack of candor on his I-485 form was not an oversight by an uninformed, uneducated applicant.” The form is an application to register permanent residence or adjust status. “Rather, this Court finds that Respondent willfully misrepresented material fact(s) for the sole purpose of circumventing the immigration process and reducing the likelihood his applications could be denied. This Court cannot and will not condone such an action by granting a discretionary waiver,” Comans said. In a statement, Khalil said, “It is no surprise that the Trump administration continues to retaliate against me for my exercise of free speech. Their latest attempt, through a kangaroo immigration court, exposes their true colors once again." “When their first effort to deport me was set to fail, they resorted to fabricating baseless and ridiculous allegations in a bid to silence me for speaking out and standing firmly with Palestine, demanding an end to the ongoing genocide,” he continued. “Such fascist tactics will never deter me from continuing to advocate for my people’s liberation.” Khalil, a native of Syria and citizen of Algeria, entered the United States on a student visa in December 2022, and his status was adjusted to lawful permanent resident last November. The Trump administration has accused Khalil, a green card holder, of withholding information about his membership in certain organizations, including that he was a political officer of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency of Palestine Refugees and that he was part of Columbia University Apartheid Divest. Furthermore, the Trump administration said he failed to disclose his previous employment at the Syria Office in the British Embassy in Beirut in his permanent residency application last year. The Department of Homeland Security and the Justice Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Hmm..

No verfied reports his show was losing money. AI Overview There's no public information or reliable reporting suggesting the Jimmy Kimmel Live! show was losing money; in fact, Kimmel himself stated the opposite when addressing reports about The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, asserting that the idea of late-night shows losing money was often nonsensical and overlooked affiliate fees. While networks have faced financial pressures, the success of late-night television is complex and extends beyond just advertising revenue to include affiliate fees and syndication value, making it unlikely Jimmy Kimmel Live! was a net loss.

In retrospect a good move for Kimmel as it leaves his options open if Trump wants to pursue this further and prosecute him for this so-called "hate speech" that ended his show.

Let's see if he can find them.

The OP thread title says Jimmy Kimmel was fired for wearing blackface? I thought that was many years ago...

Wasn't Steven Crowder the one who said a source from the ATF told him Tyler Robinson's shell casings were engraved with transgender symbols?
