Jimmy Kimmel has hit back at Donald Trump after the president called for the talk show host to be taken off the air. In a furious post made to Truth Social on November 20, Trump wrote, “Why does ABC Fake News keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with NO TALENT and VERY POOR TELEVISION RATINGS, on the air? Why do the TV Syndicates put up with it? Also, totally biased coverage. Get the bum off the air!!!”Kimmel has since responded to the president’s raging Truth Social post on Jimmy Kimmel Live. The president has put pressure on Kimmel previously this year, with the 58-year-old’s show briefly suspended from September 17 to September 22. The talk show host has since addressed the Truth Social post during his opening monologue. Kimmel joked that “the angry orange posted” about his show. He added, “I’m the bum? I’m the bum? And he posted this, this is interesting, at 12: 49AM, 11 minutes after the show ended on the East Coast, which is nice. He watches us live, hi Mr. President. How are ya? Thanks for watching us on TV instead of on YouTube. We appreciate that, and I’ll tell ya, it’s viewers like you who keep us on the air, ironically. It’s also sweet that, even in the middle of the biggest sex scandal in the history of the American presidency, he takes precious time on the toilet to post about our show. He keeps saying we have bad ratings and you should listen to him, because if anyone knows about bad ratings, it’s that guy.”The president has made few allies in the late-night television sphere, previously posting about Stephen Colbert, whose Late Show will end next season. Trump targeted Kimmel and the Live! show with a post to Truth Social showing the president is furious at the entertainer. Kimmel had taken a jab at Trump during the show’s opening monologue and referred to the signing of the Epstein files bill. He said, “We are carefully following the path of Hurricane Epstein right now. It’s a category five, it’s expected to make landfall sometime very soon, we are now one step closer to answering the question ‘what did the president know?’ and ‘how old were these women when he knew them?'”.

Yash Raj Films shifts Alpha release date to April 17, 2026; VFX needs more time
Yash Raj Films’ highly awaited action entertainer, Alpha, headlined by Alia Bhatt, will now release on April 17, 2026! The company confirmed this while revealing that the VFX of Alpha needs more time to present Alpha in its visually best shape to audience! Alpha that pairs Alia Bhatt with Sharvari in this relentless action thriller, also has Anil Kapoor & Bobby Deol in pivotal roles. Alia and Sharvari will go toe to toe against Bobby in this brutal showdown that is a part of YRF Spy Universe. A YRF spokesperson informed Bollywood Hungama, “Alpha is an extremely special film for us and we want to present the film in its most cinematic self. We have realised that the VFX will take a little longer than what we had initially assumed. We want to leave no stone unturned to make Alpha into a theatrical experience for everyone to cherish. Thus, we will now release the film on April 17, 2026.”Alpha presents Alia in a brand new action avatar and this is her first film with Yash Raj Films. Alpha also welcomes Alia into the YRF Spy Universe that has been graced by the biggest superstars of our country. It is also the first female-led out and out action film of India with Alia and Sharvari teaming up to pull off something that audiences have never seen a girl do before on screen. Our trade source says, “This discussion was brewing for a while as the teams were rushing to finish the film, but the timelines seemed unrealistic. So, the decision to push is logical. Alpha is a very important film, and the team wants to work on it to put out the best film. It’s a fair call and the current cluttered release window from Avatar to Jan end has no bearing on this decision.”Also Read: Alia Bhatt faces backlash for calling Alpha her ‘first action film’; netizens question if she ‘forgot’ Jigra.
