During his Monday evening monologue, Kimmel suggested Kirk’s alleged killer, 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. “In between the finger-pointing, there was grieving.”

The Kentucky Republican said Brendan Carr had "no business weighing in" on Kimmel's comments.

"This is television for goodness' sakes," he said. "You have to sell sponsorships. You have to sell commercials, and if you're losing money, you can be fired. But the government's got no business in it, and the FCC was wrong to weigh in."
Asked whether it was appropriate for the president to direct the attorney general to target his political opponents, Paul said that “lawfare in all forms is bad,” using a phrase to describe politically motivated prosecutions.
Paul argued that the cases brought against Trump were “lawfare,” but he added that “it’s also wrong if Republicans do it, too.”
“We need to get politics out of the judicial system as much as we can, but we can’t do it without acknowledging that the king of lawfare was Biden and so, yeah, it’s wrong if we do it, but it certainly was wrong when Biden and the Democrats were doing it throughout the country,” Paul said.
