"The Harvey Weinstein thing makes no sense: This perception that the right has spread around that I’ve not made any jokes about it is false....I have no interest in protecting Harvey Weinstein. I couldn’t care less about Harvey Weinstein. Hopefully, he will get what he deserves and we’ll all move on with our lives.
Kimmel will host the 2018 Academy Awards and he said that it will not be a place to joke about Weinstein or the people who have or have not come forward with allegations.
"It’s not really a laughing matter. There’ll be a lot of people in that room who maybe have been through experiences with him, and that’s not something I want them to relive on the night they get their Oscar."
"...I go to bed worried and I wake up worried, and I honestly don’t know if things are going to be OK. I worry that we’re going to look back at Donald Trump almost fondly because someone worse will come after him."
"If we can’t get the majority of Americans to agree on some form of gun control after Sandy Hook, I don’t see us agreeing on anything."
"There’s nothing more disgraceful than being a middle-aged white man. We should all be very ashamed of ourselves... It’s stupid. As you might imagine, I was born with a penis to white parents. There’s not much I can do about it. If you’re against discrimination, you should be against all discrimination."
"So I became interested in personalized vanity plates, and I learned that you can buy one for somebody as a gift....that’s a fun prank for people to try with their friends. There’s a real loophole in the law."
