Late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel wasn’t joking when he slammed former New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers for implicating him in the about-to-be-revealed list of Jeffrey Epstein’s associates.
Kimmel posted his response on Twitter, threatening to sue if Rodgers “keeps it up.”
“Dear Aasshole: for the record, I’ve not met, flown with, visited, or had any contact whatsoever with Epstein, nor will you find my name on any ‘list’ other than the clearly-phony nonsense that soft-brained wackos like yourself can’t seem to distinguish from reality. Your reckless words put my family in danger. Keep it up and we will debate the facts further in court,” Kimmel wrote on X.
Rodgers, who made the remarks during an appearance on the “Pat McAfee Show” on Tuesday, didn’t exactly say that Kimmel was going to be on the list. What he said was “There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, really hoping that doesn’t come out.”
This comes months after Kimmel made a joke about Rodgers, who during the pandemic became controversial because of his anti-vax beliefs, calling him a “tin foil-hatter” and saying “it might be time to revisit that concussion protocol” after Rodgers said that he was looking forward to the release of the Epstein client list.
The list in question is part of the information related to the Jeffrey Epstein-Ghislaine Maxwell sex trafficking conspiracy that’s set to be released following a 51-page order by US District Judge Loretta Preska. In it are at least 175 names, all previously identified only as John and Jane Does.
