Jimmy Kimmel, the host of “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” described the U.S. war/attack on Iran in his March 2026 monologues (especially the March 2 episode and the days after) as a distraction tactic from the controversial Jeffrey Epstein files and Trump’s connection to them.

"Operation Epsteino Distracto."

When your best friend was a pedophile, and you’re losing bigly in the swing states with an election coming up, what do you do? You fire the weapons of mass distraction.

"Trump distracts from the Epstein files with war in Iran."

"Trump is suddenly all about toppling regimes... Which is interesting because I remember a time when the idea that a president would start a war because he couldn't make a deal was seen by some as a negative."

"Which is different from its original title, which was Operation Epsteino Distracto."

"You know what would distract us from the war? Release the unreleased Trump-Epstein files!"

"Trump claims we are way ahead of schedule on the war... which means it should be over just around the time we see his taxes and the rest of the Trump-Epstein files."

"It was a sophisticated military strike... which is why Donald Trump watched it unfold from his membership-only beach resort in Florida."

"Ironically, this war he launched to distract us from those Epstein files could turn out to be more damaging to him than the Trump-Epstein files themselves."
