Jimmy Kimmel didn’t let Fox News off the hook on Monday night (March 9) as he slammed the network for trying to cover up Donald Trump‘s “shameful” actions at a dignified transfer for U.S. service members.
“We’ve now lost seven American lives in Trump’s war on Iran, and paying respect to troops who sacrificed everything as a result of a decision you made is one of, if not the most important things a president does,” the late-night host said on Monday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! “But God forbid he just do it normally and respectfully.”
