Erika Kirk Rejects Jimmy Kimmel’s “Apology” Offer After False Claims About Husband’s Murder

D.C. (Dist. of Criminals), November 4, 2025 — In a preview clip aired tonight, Jesse Watters Primetime revealed part of his upcoming exclusive interview with Erika Kirk, widow of the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated in September. The emotional exchange centers on Jimmy Kimmel’s false statements and subsequent half-hearted outreach following the comedian’s repeated on-air attacks after Charlie’s death.

Watters opened with Kimmel’s refusal to correct his false narrative that the shooter was part of the “MAGA gang,” despite federal evidence proving otherwise.

“Jimmy Kimmel lied about your husband’s murder and didn’t really apologize,” Watters began. “What would you say to Jimmy Kimmel?”

Erika’s response was calm, but cutting:

“Same thing I told Sinclair,” she said. “They asked if I wanted Jimmy to apologize, to be on his show, or make it right. Through our team, I said — tell them, thank you, we received their note. This is not our issue, not our mess. If you want to say ‘I’m sorry’ to someone who’s grieving, go right ahead. But if that’s not in your heart, don’t do it. I don’t want it. I don’t need it.”

📺 Timeline of Events Leading to Kimmel’s Suspension

Fox & Friends hosts Brian Kilmeade and Ainsley Earhardt laid out the timeline of Kimmel’s escalating rhetoric that ultimately led to his removal from ABC last month:

Sept. 10: Charlie Kirk assassinated during a live campus event.

Sept. 15: Kimmel falsely claims “the MAGA gang” was trying to “capitalize” on the murder and “spin the shooter as one of them.”

Sept. 16: Kimmel doubles down, mocking Charlie’s widow and his Turning Point team by name.

Sept. 17: The FCC Chair formally warns ABC and Disney, suggesting possible action over the remarks.

Sept. 18: ABC quietly pulls Jimmy Kimmel Live off-air.

Sept. 26: After internal review, Kimmel returns, though Sinclair and Nexstar affiliates boycott the show for nearly a week.

Earhardt summarized the reaction across the network:

“Brutal — what a horrible thing to say about a grieving family. And the fact that it took FCC pressure to pull him off the air tells you everything.”

Watters concluded the preview by promising the full, unedited interview with Erika Kirk will air Wednesday night, calling it “a conversation about grief, truth, and the moral bankruptcy of America’s late-night elite.”
