Jimmy Kimmel used Britain’s Channel 4 alternative Christmas message on December 25, 2025, to launch yet another theatrical attack on President Donald Trump, declaring that “tyranny is booming” in the United States and painting our country as a collapsing democracy. The celebrity monologue wasn’t subtle — it was a predictable sermon from Hollywood elites who think moralizing from abroad covers for their own political bias.
Kimmel even recycled the narrative that his ABC show was briefly taken off the air in September after a clash involving remarks about conservative activist Charlie Kirk, insisting the government tried to silence him before his program returned and his contract was extended through mid‑2027. That version of events was packaged for maximum sympathy to an overseas audience, complete with melodrama about “millions” standing up for his right to speak.
It’s telling that Channel 4 gave him a platform to lambaste America on Christmas Day — a British network happily amplifying an American leftist’s grievance tour while millions of Americans work and serve our communities. The optics are unmistakable: Hollywood and foreign media teaming up to narrate America’s decline rather than celebrate its resilience.
Conservatives shouldn’t be silent about this kind of virtue signaling masquerading as patriotism. Kimmel’s righteous outrage rings hollow when he parades to London to denounce a democratically elected president while enjoying the protections and paychecks of the very system he claims is rotting away.
The contract extension and industry applause for Kimmel only underscore the double standard: attack political opponents, collect prestige in return, and cry censorship when anyone pushes back. It’s a culture of rewards for partisan conformity, not accountability, and Americans deserve entertainers who respect differing viewpoints rather than lecture from a pedestal.
Newsmax’s The Right Squad rightly flagged the stunt on Friday, reminding viewers that this isn’t harmless holiday humor but part of a broader campaign by the media and celebrity class to delegitimize conservative leadership. Media outlets and late‑night hosts will continue to play this role until patriots call them out and vote with their wallets and their ballots.
Hardworking Americans know the truth: we are a nation of laws, not theater. Don’t be fooled by celebrity sorrow tours aimed at foreign audiences — real patriots will defend our institutions, hold elites accountable, and reject the narrative that our country is finished because the left says so.
