Kimmel: Trump Distracts from Epstein Files with Escalator Drama and Wages War on Tylenol & TikTok



On Monday we are heading to Brooklyn for a week of shows at the Brooklyn Academy of Music with big time guests including Ryan Reynolds, Emily Blunt, Tom Hanks, Bruce Springsteen, Spike Lee, and Stephen Colbert, Trump has been trying to distract us all from the Epstein files with Escalator drama, he told fellow world leaders at the UN that America is the “hottest country anywhere,” today Trump signed an executive order that would allow a group of investors to buy TikTok from the Chinese, our monologue from Tuesday has over 21 million views so far on YouTube alone, other shows on Television are taking shots a Trump too, Actor Randy Quaid wasn’t all that happy to see us back on air, there were a flood of fake A.I. videos designed to look like real recordings of Jimmy, Guillermo and Matt Damon, and with Trump telling us not to take Tylenol - the FDA is listening and help is on the way.

I checked with the TV listings ahead of time and the Albany, NY ABC affiliate didn't even have it listed, as they did on Tuesday - when it wasn't on. Instead there was an hour of "To Be Announced" but it's the Albany CBS affiliate that's the Sinclair station!

I imagine that it is as frustrating for people that can't watch Kimmel as it is for the sports fans who can't watch the NFL game of the week because of local coverage bans.

As I said I was shocked that he wasn't on the Albany ABC affiliate since it's the CBS affiliate that's Sinclair. And last night they just had To Be Announced in his regular time slot and I was not interested in either NewsNation or Jeopardy!

BTW, did you check the guest lists for both Kimmel and Colbert for next Tuesday??

It appears that Kimmel's trip to Brooklyn will give them the opportunity to collaborate--preferably to the expense of the oompah loompah in charge.

Meanwhile, the country is going to hell and the people are suffering (thanks to his tariffs and threats to health care), but that's the last thing that would ever cross his mind.
