DISNEY AND THE KIMMEL SHOW. A FIRST AMENDMENT FARCE

What Kimmel Actually Said
From the reporting:
In his September 15, 2025 opening monologue, Kimmel said:
“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”

He also mocked Donald Trump’s reaction, especially a moment when Trump, during a press/query segment, pointed out White House construction (a new ballroom), as part of his response when asked how he was doing after Kirk’s death. Kimmel compared Trump’s reaction to someone going through grief stages, saying:
“Yes, he’s at the fourth stage of grief, construction.”

And later:
“This is not how an adult grieves the murder of someone he called a friend. This is how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish.”
The Independent.

What Was Unclear or Disputed
When Kimmel made these comments, law enforcement had not publicly established the killer’s political leanings or motive.

Kimmel’s phrasing (“MAGA gang … trying to characterize this kid …” etc.) implies a belief that the alleged shooter belonged or was being claimed by “MAGA” or Trump-aligned actors, even though that had not yet been verified.
