Jimmy Kimmel roasted D.o.nald T.ru.mp in a new monologue after the president’s apparent meltdowns over reporters asking questions he does not like. Just hours after the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate voted in favor of releasing the Epstein files, Kimmel quipped: “Trump is not a happy little meal right now. Every time he gets asked about Jeffrey Epstein, he loses his mind.”
The late night house then cut to the a viral clip of Trump pointing at a female reporter while on Air Force One and telling her: “Quiet, pi.g.gy.”

“He called her pi.g.gy,” Kimmel said. “He said ‘Quiet, pi.g.gy’ to a reporter and it barely made the news… If a man spoke like that to a female coworker in a workplace harassment training video, you’d go, ‘Ah, that’s over the top. Nobody would do that.’ If the pilot on Air Force One behaved like the president, he wouldn’t be allowed to fly the plane.”
Kimmel also called out Trump’s fiery reaction to questions asked at the White House by ABC News’ Mary Bruce. She asked the president about the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi given Trump’s press event with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Bruce also asked Trump about the Epstein files, to which he fired back by calling her a “terrible reporter” and telling ABC that “your crappy company, is one of the perpetrators… I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and it’s so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, the chairman, who should look at that.”
Trump was likely referring to FCC chairman Brendan Carr, who played a big role in Kimmel’s suspension in September. Kimmel reacted to Trump’s threat by saying: “I don’t know, the last time your FCC guy looked at that didn’t go so great for you.”
As Variety previously reported, Kimmel earned record ratings when he returned to ABC following his suspension. With 6.3 million viewers, it was the most watched regular episode in Kimmel’s history (excluding special Sunday episodes following big events like the Oscars).

He started every shift the same way. Coffee in the battered travel mug his crew had bought him after his promotion. Gear checked in a practiced sweep: helmet, hood, turnout coat, SCBA, gloves, radio. A glance at the board with the old, fading photo of Engine 12’s first crew taped in the corner like a blessing.
On paper, Captain James Miller was a man built out of routines. He started every shift the same way. Coffee…
An immigrant mother cleaned offices during the day and studied English at night. On the day of her naturalization oath, she was unaccompanied.

BREAKING: BOOM! Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez RIPS Marjorie Taylor Greene for pretending to have principles when she’s bailing out after making herself rich off public service! Last night, MTG shocked the nation when she announced that she would be retiring on January 5th, in a long and dramatic letter in which she expressed her frustration with Congress for being out of touch with the needs of everyday Americans and criticized her own party for its corruption and self-dealing. But AOC quickly took to Instagram to call out MTG’s hypocrisy and, as she always does, deliver the TRUTH to the American people about what’s really going on.

Ilhan Omar’s argument on safety net cuts takes an unexpected turn once Brandon Gill fires back with a blunt response that stops her momentum instantly. Her claims about Medicaid, SNAP, and tax benefits set the stage, but Gill shifts the room by pointing directly at long-standing waste, fraud, and controversial taxpayer-funded programs. The moment becomes a sharp contrast between her warnings about harm to Americans and his focus on government misuse.
Ilhan Omar walked into that House hearing ready for a familiar script — the righteous warning, the moral high ground,…
