'Officer? I would like to report a joke,' Kimmel tweeted after Greene said she filed a police complaint over his joke suggesting that Will Smith could slap her.
Greene's office said in a statement to"Our office takes all threats of violence towards the Congresswoman very seriously. Last night, Jimmy Kimmel called for violence to be committed against Congresswoman Greene. It will not be tolerated."
A now-infamous slap from this year's Academy Awards ceremony saw Smith charge the stage before striking Rock in the face following a joke about his wife . The actor then returned to his seat before yelling that Rock should"Keep my wife's name out your f****** mouth."only minutes later. He has since issued multiple apologies for the slap, describing his behavior as"shocking, painful and inexcusable," while also resigning from the Academy.
"I never watch the Oscars but I've seen the Will Smith/Chris Rock clip a million times this morning," Greene"It was settled and then no more drama," she added."Chris Rock handled it like a man with no whining." Kimmel's joke suggesting that Smith could turn his anger on Greene instead of Rock came after the congresswoman accused multiple lawmakers of condoning pedophilia by supporting Jackson, who would be the first Black woman to serve on the Supreme Court if confirmed.
