Jimmy Kimmel
Slams Trump, FCC Over Iran Warfare Protection Threats
Revealed
ABC
Jimmy Kimmel is as soon as once more pulling no punches in terms of his longtime nemesis, President Donald Trump … this time blasting the prez over the FCC’s menace to revoke broadcasters’ licenses due to Iran warfare protection.
The late-night host mentioned Trump is unleashing FCC Chairman Brendan Carr — whom Kimmel dubbed Trump’s “attack schnauzer” — on broadcast networks after Carr posted on X over the weekend, accusing broadcasters of “running hoaxes and news distortions” and warning them to “correct course before their license renewals come up.”
Carr bluntly warned broadcasters will lose their licenses if they don’t “operate in the public interest” … including the media has “earned itself the label of fake news.”
Kimmel fired again, saying the media by no means earned that label … relatively, “the First Fatso made that up and you ran with it.”
Jimmy went on to say Trump is trying to yank the licenses of any retailers he would not like … earlier than sarcastically saluting the president and joking that information orgs and discuss present hosts ought to take cues from “real journalists” like Jake Paul — who sat down for an interview with Trump final week.
You may recall … Trump’s FCC beforehand threatened potential motion in opposition to ABC associates airing Kimmel’s present after his monologues about Charlie Kirk’s assassination set off a firestorm, leading to ‘Kimmel’ getting quickly taken off the air.
Protected to say … Jimmy isn’t backing down anytime quickly.
