Fox News host Sean Hannity took direct aim at late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel, slamming him as an “unhinged loser” for cracking jokes about a wave of nationwide arson attacks on Tesla vehicles.

Hannity also called out Disney CEO Bob Iger, questioning whether he supports the rhetoric coming from ABC’s top late night host.

“Bob Iger, you’re the CEO of Disney. Are you proud of this?” Hannity asked during his Thursday night broadcast.

“Jimmy Kimmel is an unhinged loser. You see the ratings every day. We all see the ratings every day,” Hannity sounded off.

“He’s, you know, pretending to be woke, compassionate while cheering for, you know, those that are involved in these actions against Tesla.”

Hannity’s condemnation came in response to Kimmel’s Tuesday night monologue, in which the liberal host mocked the ongoing vandalism and destruction of Tesla vehicles amid backlash against the company’s CEO, Elon Musk for his alignment with President Donald Trump.

During his segment, Kimmel referenced Tesla’s stock plummeting and less-than-sympathetically addressed the wave of arson attacks targeting the electric vehicle maker.


“People have been vandalizing Tesla vehicles. New Tesla vehicles. Please don’t vandalize. Don’t ever vandalize Tesla vehicles,” Kimmel remarked, pausing for laughter from his left-wing studio audience.

Hannity was quick to blast Kimmel’s incindieary remarks, pointing out what he saw as a contradiction between Kimmel’s past calls for compassion and his devioius amusement over the attacks.

“Jimmy, he sobs, he weeps when an election doesn’t go his way,” Hannity said. “He demands compassion if he’s having problems in his personal life, but yet ABC Disney, Bob Iger, allow a host, in my opinion, to be celebrating what has been happening to Tesla — against regular Americans that drive Teslas — making jokes about it all.”

Musk himself responded to Kimmel’s comments on X, calling him “an unfunny jerk.”

The feud escalated the following night when Kimmel doubled down, using his Wednesday monologue to mock Musk’s recent interview with Hannity.

The comedian took aim at Musk’s commentary that the spate of Tesla vandalism was driven by “some kind of mental illness.”

“His sales are down, his stock is down,” Kimmel said. “Last night, he was somber as he went through this with Sean Hannity.”

Mocking Musk’s concerns, Kimmel added, “Well, let me see if I can explain it for you. When you pull out a chainsaw to celebrate firing thousands of people, they get mad.”

Musk infamously wielded a chainsaw on stage during an appearance at the most recent Conservative Political Action Conference.

Kimmel then took another shot at Musk over accusations that he made a Nazi salute during his speech after Trump’s inauguration.

“My god, I mean, this poor guy. You do one, maybe two Nazi salutes, everybody gets all bent out of shape,” Kimmel sarcastically remarked.

While Kimmel did not directly address the backlash from his previous monologue, he appeared to walk back some of his remarks during Wednesday’s broadcast.

“Here’s the thing, I get that people are upset,” Kimmel said. “Burning a car might not be great for the environment. I don’t think that’s what they had in mind when they invented the electric car.”

His comments came after reports confirmed that a Tesla service center in Las Vegas had been targeted in what police described as a “targeted attack.”

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) stated that multiple Tesla vehicles were set on fire early Tuesday morning, with two cars completely engulfed in flames.

Authorities responded to the scene after receiving calls about the blaze at approximately 2:45 a.m. local time.

Officers discovered the word “RESIST” spray-painted in red on the building and multiple vehicles on fire.

Investigators found that the suspect, dressed in black, had used Molotov cocktails and a firearm to carry out the attack. An unused Molotov cocktail was later recovered from one of the damaged vehicles.

Despite acknowledging that no one should be out committing arson, Kimmel couldn’t resist another jab at Tesla’s CEO.

“No one should be setting fires. You could kill somebody, you could hurt somebody. Elon Musk might not care about other people, but decent Americans should,” Kimmel punched.

Musk responded on X, sharing footage of the attack and condemning the increasing violence against Tesla.


“This level of violence is insane and deeply wrong. Tesla just makes electric cars and has done nothing to deserve these evil attacks,” Musk posted.

On Friday, Trump threatened to send Tesla vandals to the same Salvadroran prison he deported Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang members to recently.

“I look forward to watching the sick terrorist thugs get 20 year jail sentences for what they are doing to Elon Musk and Tesla,” he posted to Truth Social on Friday morning.

“Perhaps they could serve them in the prisons of El Salvador, which have become so recently famous for such lovely conditions!”
