Jimmy Fallon Pledges Money to Group Aiding Migrant Kids After Trump Tells Him to ‘Be a Man’ on Twitter

Comedian Jimmy Fallon has pledged to give money to RAICES in honor of President Donald Trump‘s tweet kvetching about his “whimpering.”

On Sunday night, Trump wrote this on Twitter: “.@jimmyfallon is now whimpering to all that he did the famous ‘hair show’ with me (where he seriously messed up my hair), & that he would have now done it differently because it is said to have ‘humanized’ me-he is taking heat. He called & said ‘monster ratings.’ Be a man Jimmy!”

Trump was responding to a recent interview where Fallon expressed regrets about having Trump on his show, a move that caused considerable controversy for the late-night host.

In response, Fallon said he will give money to the non-profit.

The Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services (RAICES) is a Texas-based non-profit that offers free and low-cost legal services to immigrant kids and their families.

RAICES has recently started a fund to help reunite immigrant parents with their kids.
