ABC Unfires Jimmy Kimmel For Offensive Comments So They Can Instead Fire Him For Not Being Funny ENTERTAINMENT·Sep 22, 2025 · BabylonBee.com BURBANK, CA — What had been a week of upheaval in the late-night television landscape came full circle on Monday, as ABC announced that they were unfiring Jimmy Kimmel for offensive comments so they could instead fire him for not being funny. The host of Jimmy Kimmel Live! Had been suspended since last week after making false on-air statements about the man arrested for shooting conservative activist Charlie Kirk, but the network revealed that it was reversing course and returning Kimmel to his position so it could remove him for a totally different reason. "We've come to an agreement to bring Jimmy back so we can get rid of him," said Disney CEO Bob Iger. "He upset a lot of people — tens of millions of viewers, advertisers, and a lot of our network affiliates — but we're going to allow him to come back on the air so we can fire him for being completely and horribly unfunny." Network sources confirmed that executives had concluded that the best way to avoid controversy would be to bring Jimmy back so he can continue to angrily rant at the camera until the rest of his ratings evaporate. "This time he won't be able to complain about it," one insider said. "He may be allowed to be a mean-spirited, dishonest jerk, but his contract clearly states that he is not allowed to be an unfunny, mean-spirited, dishonest jerk." At publishing time, Kimmel was reportedly hard at work trying to stuff his monologues with as many seething, unfunny jokes as possible before he got fired again.

Antifa’s terror is part of the trend of Radical Left violence that has permeated the nation in recent years, incited by constant lies and vicious attacks against Republicans from unhinged Democrat politicians, well-funded leftist organizations, and their allies in the media. In 2025, Charlie Kirk was assassinated by a Radical Left terrorist. In 2025, Tesla dealerships and vehicles across the country were firebombed as deranged left-wing lunatics protested the Trump Administration. In 2025, Radical Left lunatics rioted in Los Angeles — attacking law enforcement, hurling projectiles at police cruisers, burning vehicles, and shutting down freeways. In 2025, leftists ambushed, assaulted, and attacked ICE officers and Border Patrol agents in plots across the country. In 2025, two Israeli embassy staffers were killed in Washington, D.C., by a deranged man who shouted “Free Palestine!” before shooting them. In 2025, Republican Party of New Mexico offices were targeted by an arson attack and graffitied with “ICE = KKK” slogans. In 2025, the Republican Party of Virginia’s Manassas headquarters were vandalized on Independence Day.

In 2024, leftists celebrated Luigi Mangione for gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. In 2024, President Trump was shot in an attempted assassination at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Six weeks later, President Trump was targeted in a second assassination attempt in Palm Beach, Florida. In 2024, the Republican National Committee headquarters was evacuated “after receiving vials of blood addressed to Trump.” In 2022, a violent mob invaded a Turning Point USA event at the University of New Mexico, forcing speaker Tomi Lahren and others to barricade themselves. In 2022, a canvasser for then-Sen. Marco Rubio’s campaign was brutally attacked “because he was a Republican.” In 2022, a deranged transgender individual attempted to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh at his home in Maryland. In 2022, a pro-life office was targeted by an arson attack and graffitied with “if abortions aren’t safe, then you aren’t either.” In 2022, a North Dakota man fatally struck a teenager with his vehicle because he believed the victim was a “Republican extremist.” In 2020, leftists rioted in cities across the country in response to George Floyd, causing up to $2 billion in damage and the deaths of at least 19 people. In 2020, leftists surrounded and violently accosted Sen. Rand Paul and his wife as they were leaving the Republican National Convention. In 2017, an anti-Trump socialist opened fire on Members of Congress playing baseball, wounding Rep. Steve Scalise and four others. whitehouse.gov Tom

>Antifa has a long history of terrorizing our communities:< Stay in Mom's basement... You'll be Proud of these Boys... The Proud Boys, a far-right extremist group, have a history of illegal activities, including politically motivated violence, harassment, vandalism, and conspiracy charges. The most prominent examples are the January 6th Capitol riot and street brawls in cities like New York and Portland. January 6th Capitol attack Seditious conspiracy: In 2023, former national chairman Enrique Tarrio and other Proud Boys leaders were convicted of seditious conspiracy for their roles in orchestrating the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. Coordinating the attack: Members of the group played a central role, with some leaders forming an "inner circle" that directed other Proud Boys and rioters toward the Capitol building. Violent entry: Individuals like Dominic Pezzola, who was not a top leader but a member, triggered one of the first breaches of the Capitol by smashing a window with a stolen police shield. Arrests and sentences: Dozens of Proud Boys members have been arrested and convicted for crimes related to January 6th, including seditious conspiracy, obstructing an official proceeding, and assaulting law enforcement officers. Street violence and harassment New York City brawl (2018): Following an event hosted by founder Gavin McInnes, members of the Proud Boys attacked anti-fascist protesters. Several Proud Boys were arrested and convicted of charges including riot, attempted gang assault, and attempted assault. Portland and the Pacific Northwest: The group has a long history of violent clashes with counter-protesters in cities like Portland, Oregon. In 2018, violence erupted at a Proud Boys rally, leading to multiple hospitalizations. In 2023, Oregon Proud Boys also fought with members of a neo-Nazi group near a Pride event. Targeting LGBTQ+ and school board events: Since the January 6th convictions fractured the national leadership, local Proud Boys chapters have increasingly engaged in smaller-scale, localized events. They have targeted school board meetings, libraries, and LGBTQ+ events, particularly those with drag performances. Vandalism: In December 2020, then-leader Enrique Tarrio and other members vandalized a Black Lives Matter banner at a historic Black church in Washington D.C. Tarrio later served jail time for the incident. A court awarded the church ownership of the Proud Boys' trademarked name to satisfy a judgment related to the incident. Other criminal activity Voter intimidation: In 2020, threatening emails were sent to Democratic voters in swing states like Florida, Arizona, and Pennsylvania, warning them to vote for Donald Trump. An investigation concluded that Iranian intelligence was responsible for the spoofed emails, which were sent from a Proud Boys-branded address. Weapons offenses: In January 2021, Enrique Tarrio was arrested in Washington D.C. for possession of high-capacity magazines. Internal fighting: In July 2023, Proud Boy Tusitala "Tiny" Toese was sentenced to eight years in prison in Oregon on charges of assault and unlawful use of a weapon. Toese had a history of involvement in politically motivated fights.
