 Kimmel knocks Britt for SOTU rebuttal at Oscars: She’s an ‘adult woman with the brain of a child’
by Judy Kurtz - 03/10/24 7:41 PM ET

Jimmy Kimmel is taking a knock at Sen. Katie Britt at the Academy Awards for the Alabama Republican’s much-mocked State of the Union rebuttal.

The late-night TV host took to the stage at the 96th annual Oscars on Sunday with a series of rapid-fire wisecracks mostly aimed at the Hollywood stars in attendance at the Los Angeles ceremony.

But in an otherwise politics-free monologue, Kimmel took a dig at Britt, without mentioning the lawmaker by name.

Speaking about Emma Stone’s Oscar-nominated role in the film, “Poor Things,” Kimmel said that the actor plays “an adult woman with the brain of a child.”

“Like the lady who gave the rebuttal to the State of the Union,” Kimmel quipped, to laughs from the audience.

There is a reason these media personalities have been ordered to attack senator Britt. It's because she was extremely effective in reaching her target audience.

I've didn't watch Britt's rebuttal, but then I never watch any SOTU addresses by whomever.
Nevertheless, whatever the worth of her rebuttal to Biden's nonsense, Kimmel is a king-sized jerk.

At one time, Kimmel was pretty funny. I used to watch his opening monologue regularly and he made me laugh. Then he went down the wrong road. Haven't watched him since. Same with SNL.

This isn't surprising considering Kimmel's jackassery. OTOH, it was awful to watch mean girls Megyn Kelly and Sarah Gonzalez rip into her. Dems don't do that to each other. Can anyone figure out why the Republicans can't seem to make significant advances?  **sigh** **nononono*

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

He was funny on "The Man Show." I don't know if he's been funny since that time since I've never seen his talk show.
