Joe Rogan commented on Jimmy Kimmel's suspension from ABC following Kimmel's controversial remarks about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Rogan strongly opposed government involvement in dictating comedic content, calling it "insane" and warned conservatives against supporting such censorship, saying it will eventually be turned against them. He described it as "crazy" for right-wing supporters to celebrate Kimmel's suspension and predicted that the suspension would ultimately benefit Kimmel by amplifying his show's support. Rogan also defended Kimmel's initial joke as funny, though not precise, and called Kimmel a "decent guy." Furthermore, Rogan criticized then-President Donald Trump for frequently tweeting negatively about late- night hosts like Kimmel, questioning how he had time for it while managing the country. Overall, Rogan framed the situation as a free speech issue and cautioned against government interference in comedy.
