Can you please pull up the clip of Jimmy Kemmel on him being back on day one? A lot of people thought it was going to be Newsom being on his first show, but it was a Newsom went on Colbert. But this is Jimmy Kemmel. After being announced that he's coming back, opening show, everyone's wondering, he's not going to say anything. He's not going to say anything. I said, I think he has to, or else they're not going to bring you back,

because this is a terrible look for one guy. And you know who that one guy is? Bob Eiger. And here's what Jimmy did last night. I don't think what I have to say is going to make much of a difference. If you like me, you like me, if you don't, you don't. I have no illusions about changing anyone's mind. But I do want to make something clear because it's important to me as a human.

And that is, you understand. you don't. I have no illusions about changing anyone's mind. But I do want to make something clear

because it's important to me as a human. And that is, you understand that it was never my intention

to make light of the murder of a young man. I don't think there's anything funny about it. I posted a message on Instagram, on the day he was killed, sending love to his family, and asking for compassion.

And I meant it. I still do.

Nor was it my attention to blame any specific group for the actions of what it was obviously a deeply disturbed individual.

That was really the opposite of the point I was trying to make.

But I understand that to some that felt either ill-timed or unclear or maybe both.

And for those who think I did point a finger, I get why you're upset.

If the situation was reversed, there was a good chance I'd have felt the same way.

I have many friends and family members on the other side who I love and remain close to,

even though we don't agree on politics at all.

I don't think the murderer who shot Charlie Kirk represents anyone.

This was a sick person who believed violence was a solution, and it't ever and also selfishly I am I am a person

who gets a lot of threats I get many ugly and scary threats against my life my wife my kids

my co-workers because of what I choose to say and I know those and by the way, I'm sure he does, and I don't want any of that on him either.

And I have some ideas for you, Jimmy.

I got some ideas for you.

I'm going to ask you guys if you guys think it's sincere or not.

Bob and Jimmy, here's an idea for you.

Why not for you guys as you're going through this?
