"This is the kind of weekend that makes you wonder if things will ever feel good again, said Jimmy Kimmel on Monday evening, after a couple days of horrific news: the terror attack at a Hanukkah celebration on Australia's Bondi Beach, a mass shooting at Brown University in Rhode Island, and the murder of one of our greatest directors and patriots, Rob Reiner, and his wife, Michele Reiner."
"Just when you think he can't go any lower, he somehow finds a way to do that, Kimmel responded. His description of what happened of course is not at all what happened. And this is exactly what I've spoken about before. This rush to pin the tail on the donkey in pursuit of the Trump-friendly narrative. Not to mention blaming his death on the fact that he is an outspoken liberal, insulting someone who has just been murdered,"
The weekend included a terror attack at a Hanukkah celebration on Bondi Beach, a mass shooting at Brown University, and the murder of director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner. Responses called for common-sense gun policy, expanded mental-health care, compassion, and leadership. A Truth Social post blamed the deaths on "TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME," accusing Reiner of causing anger and framing him as responsible. The post was widely condemned as hateful and baseless, and subsequent comments labeling Reiner "deranged" intensified criticism for insulting the murdered and their grieving family without evidence.
