What did Jimmy Kimmel say last night?

In an 18-minute monologue, Jimmy Kimmel addressed his recent suspension, expressing gratitude to those who supported him and defending his right to free speech. He thanked his late-night peers, conservative figures, and international hosts for their support. Kimmel clarified that his previous controversial comments were not intended to make light of a serious incident. He criticized the FCC's stance on regulating media content, citing concerns over potential government overreach. Kimmel concluded with a humorous bit featuring Robert De Niro, playing a fictional FCC chairman, highlighting the absurdity of media regulation. Also reactions from Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, and Joe Rogan, all supporting free speech in comedy. This is a bonus episode. The normal episode went out earlier this morning.
