- Kimmel's jab at both the U.S. and Iranian governments initially received mixed reactions from his studio audience, prompting him to drop the comment with humor.
- Following Trump's announcement of a two-week ceasefire with Iran, he warned via Truth Social that U.S. military resources would remain in place until a "REAL AGREEMENT" is reached and followed.
- Kimmel also mocked Fox News host Lawrence B. Jones for listing unmet U.S. demands in the Iran negotiations, while Fox co-host Griff Jenkins defended the ceasefire and dismissed critics labeling Trump as avoiding confrontation.
