Jimmy Kimmel mocked Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) for a joke he told this week, in which he encouraged Will Smith to slap her.

“What a day—I have to tell you. What a night and what a day. I have the weirdest life. I really do. Once again, I find myself in the middle of a brouhaha, as I appear to have run afoul of probably the worst woman in American politics,” Kimmel said on Thursday night. “Marjorie Taylor Greene, the congressperson from the 14th District of Georgia, is unhappy. She’s specifically unhappy with me.”

The host then rehashed the joke that he told on Tuesday night, explaining that Greene called every Democrat and three Republican senators — Susan Collins (ME), Mitt Romney (UT), and Lisa Murkowski (AK) — who voted in favor of Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson “pro-pedophile.”

“Any Senator voting to confirm #KJB is pro-pedophile just like she is,” Greene wrote in a tweet, later calling out the three Republicans by name.


“Murkowski, Collins, and Romney are pro-pedophile,” she added in another tweet. “They just voted for #KBJ.”

After sharing the tweet with his audience, Kimmel joked, “Wow, where is Will Smith when you really need him?”

The joke prompted Greene to file a police report, citing a “threat of violence” from Kimmel.

“She called the police and reported this. Not only did she call the police—she called the same police she voted against giving a congressional gold medal to for defending our Capitol against the insurrection she helped incite on Jan. 6. That’s who she called—the people she wanted to defund.”

The host then noted that Greene, a member of the party that often mocks liberals for being unable to take a joke, was unable to handle one herself.

“It’s amazing how quickly you can go from, ‘These liberals, you can’t say anything anymore,’ to ‘What did you say? I’m calling the cops!’” Kimmel joked. “This must be that cancel culture they’re always talking about!”

“She’s a snowflake and a sociopath at the same time,” he continued. “A snowciopath, as we’ll refer to her from now on.”

Kimmel also responded to Greene’s tweet about the report before his Thursday night show, cracking, “Officer? I would like to report a joke.”
