If you look at the messages that Kimmel was posting that I bet this monologue was based on, as someone who comes from the talk show world, I bet this is how him and his writers developed this monologue.

Here was Jimmy Kimmel, his social media post before all of this chaos, where he said, instead of the angry finger pointing, can we just for one day agree that it is horrible and monstrous to shoot another human?

On behalf of my family, we send love to the Kirks and to all the children, parents, and innocents who fall victim to senseless gun violence.

So if you want to figure out more of what the intent was behind what Jimmy Kimmel was saying, well, first, just understand English in the clip that we read to you.

But also, you could read Jimmy Kimmel's words right there.

Jimmy Kimmel said nothing wrong.

And the reaction has been an authoritarian reaction.

And I've seen such hypocrisy from the right on this issue.

And I do want to say there have been a lot of people on the right who I will say good job because they have actually started to condemn the Trump administration for their suppression of free speech.

A lot of those kind of manosphere so-called podcasters, they're coming out now and saying, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

This isn't what we voted for.

This is insane.

This is some of the worst censorship we have ever seen.

I'm not saying this to do.

I told you so.

That's not my goal here in any way, shape or form.

Join us.

I agree with you now that you see it.

Now get on board and understand what this administration is doing.

It is an authoritarian regime that wants to crack down on free speech.
