CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

Deadline Hollywood reports:



Jimmy Kimmel’s monologue was somber and serious tonight, as the late-night host shared his thoughts on the George Floyd death in Minneapolis and its aftermath.

Kimmel ran down the facts of the case as he saw them, and lamented “the senseless acts of violence that were brought on by a senseless act of violence,” and “the loop we get stuck into,” which, he claimed, devolves into a litany of finger-pointing and blame shifting.

But worse, Kimmel said, was President Donald Trump’s Twitter threat to shoot looters. “I especially want to pose this question to older people who have seen (racial conflict) before: “Is this who you want leading us for President?” He concluded, “Enough is enough. We’ve got to vote this guy out already.”
