It feels like the world has probably seen the last of Jimmy Kimmel hosting a late-night show for ABC after the network put him on indefinite hiatus this week. <\/p>\n
Kimmel got the boot after FCC Chairman Brendan Carr threatened to take action against ABC after Kimmel\u2019s Sept. 15 monologue. <\/p>\n
While speaking on Benny Johnson\u2019s podcast Wednesday, Carr said the FCC has \u201cremedies we can look at.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe can do this the easy way or the hard way,\u201d he told Johnson. \u201cThese companies can find ways to change conduct and take action, frankly, on Kimmel or there\u2019s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n
So, what did Kimmel say?<\/p>\n
\u201cWe 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,\u201d he said in the monologue. \u201cIn between the finger-pointing, there was grieving.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn Friday, the White House flew the flags at half staff, which got some criticism, but on a human level, you can see how had the president is taking this.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kimmel then cut to a clip of the president being interviewed in front of the White House. When Trump was asked how he was holding up in the aftermath of Kirk\u2019s killing, he responded, \u201cI think very good, and by the way, right where you see all the trucks, they just started the construction of the new ballroom for the White House.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kimmel cut back to himself and said, \u201cAnd then we installed the most beautiful chandelier. Sconces you wouldn\u2019t believe.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s something wrong with him, there really is,\u201d he continued. \u201cWho thinks like that? Why are we building a $200 million ballroom in the White House? Is it possible he\u2019s doing it intentionally so we can be mad about that instead of the Epstein list? By the time he\u2019s out of office, the White House will have slot machines and a water slide.\u201d<\/p>\n
Prior to his show last week, Kimmel shared condolences to Kirk\u2019s family on Instagram.<\/p>\n
\u201cInstead of the angry finger-pointing, can we just for one day agree that it is horrible and monstrous to shoot another human?\u201d he wrote. \u201cOn 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.\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite that, Nexstar and Sinclair rejected Kimmel\u2019s show before ABC finally put him on indefinite hiatus.<\/p>\n
If that is it for Kimmel, and he walks away altogether, he did well for himself.<\/p>\n
According to CelebrityNetWorth.com<\/b><\/a> he had a salary of $15 million per year. Losing that cash flow will surely hurt, but the site said he has a current estimated net worth of $50 million.<\/p>\n So, if there is a bright side for Kimmel and his fans, it appears to be that whether or not he ends up back on the air, it would appear that he already stacked up enough cash to take care of his family and have a pretty nice life. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
