Disney's ABC said "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" will be "pre-empted indefinitely," a spokesperson confirmed to NBC News, following the late-night host's comments Monday about the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Kirk, co-founder of Turning Point USA, was giving a presentation at Utah Valley University when he was fatally shot last week.

During his monologue Monday night, Kimmel raised the possibility that the alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, might have been a pro-Trump Republican.

“The MAGA Gang (is) desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel said.
